I don't know to what extent it's wrong, but I've been drinking tap water for years. Here in Germany it's generally said to be of high quality, but apparently 1 litre contains 100 nanograms of hormones (via birth control

I agree the phenomenon isn't new.[1] But that doesn't mean that number of cases hasn't changed. I think what started the recent 'sudden cardiac death of athletes' speculation is more the perceived incidence than the

I recently wanted to give this a try, but realized that it doesn't support the editing of .doc files. The fact that this isn't supported probably indicates that it's somewhat difficult to implement? I was looking for a way to

I used to go to the dentist every 4-6 months and there was almost always something that seemed to require a drilling procedure. Then after graduation my life became chaotic and I stopped going and frankly haven't been to the dentist in

No, hadn't seen that one! The 2021 consensus seems to be that the amounts detected are so minuscule that there is no cause for concern. I wonder if that's the whole story. I also wonder why there aren't more studies on this.

You can do this without numbers. Put a stone for every sheep into a sack and when you need to check the herd's completeness you take a stone out for every sheep and hope that the sack is eventually empty. That's an old shepherd&#x

I think some people are flagging news they dislike. Though it seems that flagging was originally intended for identifying posts that are "breaking the guidelines or otherwise [do not belong] on HN".

I feel like journalism needs to be re-invented in a way that accounts for our modern understanding of human psychology. We might need to define new standards and processes that counteract against a natural inclination towards various biases

He once said he has bipolar disorder. He now says things that sound crazy to me. Therefore he is having a manic episode. The problem with this reasoning is that people can say things that sound crazy without it being a symptom of a mental d

So the most upvoted comment claims West said "the "people at the Gap" knew about Uvalde". But he actually said "it felt like" that was the case, while adding that "I'm not saying that they did"?
