  The Danish people must be salty about that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon travels overseas⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I recently tried to compare data on morbid obesity, but most countries don’t even have a rate, or only include the data as a sub- 1% share of the obesity.

  And the US it’s 9.5%

  As in, 30% of the US has a BMI between 30 and 40, and 10% is over 40.

  Z values are measurement of how many standard deviations something is from the mean. 95% of your values fall between -2 and +2. Most “interesting cases” are about outliers, something that’s very uncommon. If it’s common, you don’t tend to talk about Z-values.

  The survivorship bias plan shows a world war 2 chart of where the bullet holes were on planes. The conclusion famously isn’t to armor those parts often hit, but to armor the parts that weren’t hit, because no planes hit there returned to be recorded.

  It’s almost as big as the Xbox360. We can reuse all the all the old memes

  To be fair, a hundred pages wouldn’t fit in the margins

  How about we stop posting AI slop?

  That’s how you’re supposed to attach hinges to ironwood.

  Children need a parent, and some adults never pass that stage.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Also pretty poor, with shitty health care coverage...am I getting warm?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Because we’re not OK

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk has an h-index.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I recall being a grad student, and one of my friends was super happy their paper was mentioned. The context was basically “Contrary to claims by [friend et al]…”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meanwhile, on Facebook⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The upper teeth are solidly in the “danger triangle” of the face. If those get infected, there’s basically just a highway to the brain.

  Without dentistry, getting a cavity could easily lead to an infection, and without antibiotics, that could easily kill you.

  People don’t really realize how lucky we are with modern medicine. People used to die from all sorts of things we consider trivial today

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meanwhile, on Facebook⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Bad teeth used to frequently kill people as little as a century ago.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨sushi delivery⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also, serving the ends is kinda not-done in high class sushi.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨sushi delivery⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Freeze, batter, then fry?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨School pickup lines are wild⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Absolutely nothing!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Albania what are you doing? I thought you just made peace with Aberbaijan??? ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So, is the leadership fucking stupid, or do they expect their voters to be fucking stupid?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨got this ad and uh⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep. Animals are also legally considered property, but at least they have some legal protection. Slaves had basically none.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨got this ad and uh⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ding ding ding.

  It’s not just a braindead insult, there are at least some actual antisemitic assholes in the pro-palestine group. They’re very much a minority, but they exist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Caw caw⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Or flipping your nail back, that looks like it hurts like hell

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon finds a plot hole⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  At the very least, building a fence to keep in a Pegasus seems like MUCH more work

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get a job 2025 political compass⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So, when I was in college I made a specific sort of (very very niche) video or audio, for pay. That’s maybe 15-20 years ago.

  It was actually pretty fun, but I never did anything in person, which probably helps. I’m (or was) not nearly as good looking as the women here, but I met the highly niche requirements and got paid pretty well.

  Better than my parttime job in the library (no, that’s not the niche).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get a job 2025 political compass⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  One of the women has a price of “free”. You could try copying that price.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why the Green Cheese Turned White | The cheesemakers didn’t mind that their prized product was changing color, but they were curious about the cause.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Tl;dr: the bacteria that used to give a green color evolved to no longer be green, since it lives in a dark cave. The energy saved by not producing Melanin let’s the white bacteria out compete the green ones

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Punch Time⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Much more impressive too!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨it's true!⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also, you can totally have a lawn. It’s a great place to Do Things in your garden, and it’s better than bricks or concrete. I can’t host a bbq in between the shrubs after all.

  Just, turn the bits where you don’t Do Things into some other plant than lawn grass. At the very least you don’t really need those corners.

  Or 11 cousins, in a 2 person studio?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨cox-zucker⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not wondering any less now.

  We’re called chemists, and it’s more of a friendly rivalry

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon makes games⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Also, depending on where and when in the middle ages, currency would vary hugely and work with several dozens of different coins. Travel to another region would involve money changers, scales, entirely different systems of coinage with (by modern standards) absurd breakdowns of coins and wholly new names and words.

  And having pure coins would be easy, so obviously you’d have fun stuff like “new dollars” being worth 7/16th of an “old dollar” because they have less silver in them.

  was is somewhere in time and space? Or way down in deep-13?
