Damn, I even have read Douglas Adams in the past, but what I remember is that shitty short video, sad

Saw a tiktok about a kakapo once. The phrase lives rent-free in my head: www.instagram.com/reel/DJt_wHSCfxW/
Translated from german:
The kakapo is the fluffiest mistake evolution never deleted. The stupid Kakapo. Everything about him screams: “I was never meant to survive”. He is fat, he can’t fly and he walks like an old stool with wheels build out of moss.
In dangerous situations he just stands still. His survival instinct is “acting as if he im not there”. His biggest enemy? Everything! Cats, dogs, rats even time…
Poor kakapo!

Exactly. I never said anything about the layperson. Trained medicals on the other hand should be required to update their knowledge.

The non-medically person? They should not! The medically trained person on the other hand, should question and update their training, shouldn’t they?
- Comment on Life pro tip for friends of pharmacists 2 weeks ago:
You are absolutely right. People should trust their doctors, but doctors should also update their knowledge.

Where in my post did I say that patients should decide on their own to stop taking medication?
I tried to share some information, that show nothing is black and white and only because someone believes to know something, that can still be wrong.

Funny how these “assumptions” are proven wrong but still everyone regurgitates them.
Don’t eat eggs, because they increase your cortisol… is another one of these myths

Rounding once may be okay but rounding multiple times and that errors add up. Astrophysics?! If im working with wood, i don’t care measuring to 0.1 mm and it might be okay in astrophysics to use 10 for pi, but that doesn’t make guessing your math correct in general.
Maybe we are doing things differently here in germany.

Anyone was afraid after matrix that machines will fight us to win world dominance. They don’t have to, we are too lazy. Not long and your ai will talk to my ai, private and at work.
Finally I don’t have to interact with people any longer, that’s all I ever wanted…

- Comment on Eat lead 1 year ago:
Pazuzu@midwest.social explained above:
The original post only gave half the explanation. It’s not that lead exists in general, it’s that lead exists within zircon crystals.
Under normal circumstances that would be impossible, zircon crystals strongly reject lead atoms as they form. There’s no way to stuff lead into the crystal lattice in the quantity we find them there. But uranium and zircon go together just fine, we just have to wait for it to decay into lead. The trouble is it takes ~4.5 billion years for just half of those uranium atoms to turn into lead. So any zircon crystal we find with half as much lead as uranium must be roughly that old

- Comment on if the total fertility rate drops and stays below global replacement rate, will humans disappear? 1 year ago:
You are contradicting yourself. By moving into a wealthy country you neither gain education nor wealth. Its about culture and environment.
My guess is: in wealthy countries people are living more isolated. Without help from friends and family you have to invest a huge amount oft time into rising a child, which many can’t afford.

As a european i think its fucking disgusting that sick days in america are substracted from vacation days. Don’t you deserve any vacation because you happen to be sick more often then someone else?
Here in germany, if I geht sick during a vacation, i’ll call work and get back all the vacation days that I happened to be sick, because everyone should use his vacation days to regenerate and relax, not to lie in bed being sick.
