I'm not arguing you should not have included (1), (2), and (5), I'm arguing you should not have included (3) and (4) because they do not support the point of the passage.

I wonder if you have either of the known genetic mutations related to a shorter sleep duration. I understand it's pretty rare, but some percentage of the population have them and you might be one of the lucky few!

And here's an excerpt where you repeatedly say that modern sleep is unnatural. > Modern sleep, in its infinite comfort, is an unnatural superstimulus that overwhelms our brains with pleasure and comfort (note: I’m not saying that it

Is all sleep science based p-hacked small-n experiments? To your point - I probably would have tried to rely on research that supports your points (which you've got me interested in now). I probably wouldn't have included a handfu

I'm sorry, what point are you trying to make? Where is "here" in your first sentence? The social credit system is somewhat unique, and it is not a stretch to say drinking to excess may not be regarded as a favorable character

The study used synthetic psilocybin. In some estimate I've found online (I don't know how accurate) it claims 10mg is about 1.5 grams of dried shrooms of common varieties.

You can't think of any times they've had a win? They saw the largest growth of any FAANG in the past year. What about cloud and devices (pixel, nest, stadia, Chromecast, etc.)? They made 22 billion just on "other" bets i

Can they not call out a secondary point?

Completely agree. I hated the idea of a clunky "smart" TV and only purchased LG because of the ratings on picture quality. I have a Nvidia shield, Amazon fire tv cube, and a media PC. I recently realized I use none of them, becaus

This is a great idea, thanks OP. I've been wanting to cultivate a habit of reading a relevant paper (or abstract) at some cadence, such as once a week. Can anyone recommend a way to find the important and/or influential papers in

> Nope. If the clusters are separate it limits how damaging a compromise of the cluster is. But if the clusters are configured similarly, a flaw in one is likely present in the others. GPs point is that if you invest in hardening, you ca

None, I try to avoid it unless I'm scoping out a new job. Are you saying Blind users include Apple in FANG? I haven't seen it.

by RandomThrow321 5y ago
You're the first I've heard of. FANG was the original designation for the group of high-growth tech stocks, and the A stood for Amazon. This is pretty well known and verifiable. Are you sure you didn't just assume the A was f

How so? It's a question in English about the English language on a primarily English website, so I would expect it to be about English, but I don't see how it is US-centric.

He didn't answer the question directly, but he did have a possible explanation that's at least worth a mention. In the book, he suggested that many of the studies detailed people with preexisting disease, which was the hidden vari
