Since 1970 testosterone has declined 1% per year and it’s well established higher testosterone is linked to impulsive and violent criminal behavior and in countries like the US crime rate is at a 50 year low correlating with this decline st

Why bother stopping at crime rates with that confidence? The 1st recorded cases of fatty liver disease and T2D in children were in the 1980’s are have continued growing since - lead must have been protecting children’s health. Testosterone

Besides GeoCities - the rest are being relaunched by SV VCs and PE groups. Napster was acquired and relaunched in crypto a few years ago and just resold for $100M+ to a metaverse company immediately following a new raise at a $1B+ valuation

Digg is being relaunched - with Alexis on board. A bunch of the early internet brands are being rebranded/relaunched which is collectively is being branded as the nostalgic internet. Napster, Limewire, Digg, GeoCities…to name a few

History became legend. Legend became myth. And for two and a half thousand years, internet lore passed out of all knowledge. Until, when chance came, the lore ensnared a new bearer.

All courts have local rules or even standing orders governing filings and pleadings - from case styling formatting, font/size, spacing, max pages, ect… Federal district courts are not places to flaunt rules of the court or court orders

That’s exactly how I begin to put it into context and rationalize this kind of work - he was a mathematician so this the kind of thing he worked on, and he was also working on a body of maths and knowledge. It’s much like physics and the gr

The Riemann hypothesis makes me feel dumb - not just because I can’t solve it, no great shame in that - I genuinely get lost in amazement and wonderment by the mind that develops a function, graphs it, and gleams some insight into numbers.

No need to picture a cute hypothetical set of facts that are dissimilar to that actual set of facts. These are serious military protocols not a academic exercise in a vacuum. Unauthorized flying of even dji drones near and over military bas

Yes, that is the protocol when aircraft enter restricted airspace like next to military bases - which has been reported. Besides training, intercepting aircraft is primarily what jets do. In terms of cost, it’s a lot less expensive to scra

Almost no chance these are not US military. The drones have been appearing very consistently, if there were the slightest concern of foreign military drones, then military jets would have been scrambled to intercept - there have been no suc

Natural result of YouTube scholars learning “appeal to authority” logic fallacy - it somehow becomes reasonable to reject any and all authorities while simultaneously accepting any single YouTube video as truth.

I’ve attending 1,000’s of arraignments, motion calendars and pleas. In all my experience I’ve seen 2 pro se defendants pull the “I’m a sovereign” spiel. Credit to them they both turned what should have been a 5 minute hearing into at least

This will be great legal precedent for the courts to extend to implanting neuralink style chips in your brain - although a neuralink chip may facilitate a future search and seizures (pun intended), the installation of the chip itself is ne

That’s my experience as well, at least at my local store I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve gotten a mealy Fuji over many years. Also laughing because I perform the same apple analysis - this new variety looks good and admitte

Way I’d explain it as Fuji and Gala are similar (on the sweet side). I agree with you on inconsistency of the Gala, which is why I have it below Fuji, and Fuji’s being consistently crisp. I’m firmly in your camp, I don’t care for mealy app

I never particularly liked Honeycrisp apples and never understood the hype, but seeing this #1 on HN I feel like one of the cool kids ahead of the curve on a niche topic. Jokes aside about 5 years ago I began reading about the industry sid

This is such a great response that perfectly reflects the moving of the moral goal posts that deflects the moral culpability. Thank you.

Obviously some plants die and others don’t in harvesting. Mostly the “even broccoli screams when you rip it from the ground” is a joke more often than actual trolling. I think the valid moral argument is that as a result of modern agricultu

Yes I believe that is correct emojis are not IDNs; however, ICANN authorizes ccTLDs support emojis separately I think it’s just considered punycode. Only about a dozen ccTLDs have authorized support for them and allow them to be registered.

I attempted both the emoji character and punycode. Emojis are tricky, most domain registrars can’t get them right, most browsers can’t get at least some right (usually the ones with ZWJ characters. So by no means a knock on Bluesky, but I w

You perfectly framed why it’s my belief this debate will rage on for 100-1000 years. People irrationally get agitated and become sugar advocates when you explain the two truths: 1. 100% of T2D cases can be prevented through diet/lifest
