Mine too at that age. I didn't know it is so common. It was his first obsession, later came Playmobil, Lego and now football. I believe there is a correlation of interest to construction equipment with certain traits and dexterities la

Smoking in puberty is an obvious signal of many other malign traits: low socio- educational-economic level, violence, mental disease, besides of possible harm to their sperm. Many confounders that are difficult to include.

Another correlation that has to take into account decades long lifetime confounders that are the elephant in the room, especially somatic and latent mental diseases. For example lonely people are so because their relatives died early and th

In all viscera sympathetic and para- keep balance of muscle function. But in steady state the para- must fire more powerfully because the sympathetic intrinsically dominates a little. So if you cut off both systems, the organ has a sympathe

I remember the golden RCA cables (not by Debon). They used to sell them by the meter and people connected 7 channels in a 100 sq.m living room...

Was Vietnam not supported then by the two communist Superpowers? A closer example is Afghanistan: the West couldn't win a bunch of desert nomads for 20 years.

In the brain memory is implemented diffusely in broad regions in the lobes, rather that in sticks like in computers. It becomes heavily connected, depended and sometimes indistinguishable from other mental functions (emotions, executions, d

I stayed signed up on Prime for 15 months at 2020-21 without realising it and how it started. Awful experience and practices of shady gangsters. Jeff go to f.. hell. I want my 120E back from this fine.

Huntington's is among the best candidates for a genetic cure: well known gene and mechanism, definitive pre symptomatic diagnosis, slow progression. But I am still reluctant. It's phase 1/2 (ie exploratory) and the phase 3 is

Autism, paracetamol, vaccines are celebrity and loaded medical words that they want to relate while there is no scientific correlation between them. These people are at least dangerous and cause deeply bad and guilt feelings to innumerous f

Between pure "luck" and personal struggle during a lifetime there lies a whole lot of dexterities that psychology, evolution and education cannot decide if they are developed due to luck or struggle. Like intelligence, intuition,

In my humble experience, if you run out of memory in Linux you are f... up, irrespective of swap present and/or OOM getting in. On the other side, a Raspberry Pi freezed unexpectedly (not due to low memory) until a very small swap file

To continue my comment. I enjoy both, even Jon more. My point was that the seemingly broader public impact of Jimmy lead to his ban. If it escelates to Jon then I do not see any difference than nations like Russia or China.

The word 'correlates' in a title is borderline click bait-y due to possible intended confusion with 'causes'. Also it has little value. Consider the equivalent "decreased all cause mortality correlates with increase

The helper verb 'may' should accompany any scientific result as the scientific method usually cannot prove causations but only negate the null hypothesis.

Both Jon Stewart and Jimmy Kimmel do funny anti-governmental shows, but the difference is the former is kind of silly, superficial, low-impact, short-sighted while the latter is more influential, serious and capable to generate opposition.

This is not a film, this is a lesson to all ocean sailors. When I travelled along the Pacific in 2009 we were prepared for the cases that happened in the movie. I have dreamt about them and then I watched them.

While in decline or development of a country, education comes first, the rest sectors follow and currency as world reserve comes last. We seem to be at the middle stage for US and China, the former going down, the latter up. Top world curre
