You're misunderstanding what they're saying here. They are saying TRT will have an impact on fertility while they are on TRT. The prospects for when they go off TRT are fine: >If a patient currently desires fertility, TRT shou

Roid rage is probably a myth. The causation likely goes the other way. Meaning aggressive people are more likely to use steroids than steroids are causing them to be aggressive: https://www.discovermagazine.com/health/

This is one of the annoying things about life. Testosterone effectively already does this and is quite safe. It's just that society is not comfortable with men taking steroids for no particularly good reason.

The names are arbitrary but the underlying color theory is not. Colors are different wavelengths of light and our eyes have sensors that are sensitive to specific wavelengths.

It's hard to explain to anyone who hasn't experienced it how absurd government work can be. I was briefly on the 2020 census project as a sub-sub-sub-contractor. The Census Bureau has access to IRS data and generated most statist

Because it's mostly wrong. Luxury goods like Nike's, iPhones, et.al. are priced to maximize revenue. If those started growing on trees for free it wouldn't appreciably change the price. They'd just bank the extra as pr

I screwed up my 2023 taxes by accident in an obvious way that netted me a significant extra amount. I haven't heard anything from the IRS in a year at this point. I imagine that at some point I'll get a letter asking for what I

That just means we're successful 99.998% of the time instead of 99.999% of the time. It's not a particularly significant difference.

People said the same thing about Japan but they ran into their own structural issues. It's going to happen to China as well. They've got demographic problems, rule of law problems, democracy problems, and on and on.

It's impossible for both things to be true. For the dollar to be the reserve currency countries need to accumulate dollars. They can't do that unless more dollars leave the US than come back. The problem is that countries don&#x

There's stuff like tuned mass dampers that reduce sway. The top floors would not necessarily be completely attached either. Can see them falling and taking out the lower levels with them.

I think there's approximately 0 voters that are NIMBY because they want to prop up their housing values by restricting supply. They are NIMBY because they like the way things are where they live and want them to stay the same.

I don't think that's ever really happened. If you look at GDP per worker the closest anyone has gotten to the West is Japan & South Korea at roughly 3/4 the production of France. They can take over existing industries li

Many jurisdictions add fines for various parts of the process. Lab fees, probation fees, rehab fees, jail fees, and on and on. Some do even charge a prosecution fee to fund the district attorney.

People don't buy houses by writing checks for the purchase price. They get a mortgage and pay monthly which is dependent on both housing price and interest. With a lot of hand waving that number isn't much worse than the 70s
