I thought about using the 5 year charts, but I decided against it because that would include things from the initial COVID lockdowns and I felt that skewed results.

I know the NASDAQ doesn’t mean much to the normal folks but to the people in charge that is “the economy”
Did you read me whole comment or just react?

No. America has its issues of course, but Curiosity and in a wider sense NASA is an entirely good thing that America does.
Just because we have work to do in other areas doesn’t mean we can’t be proud of the good we are doing.

Tbh I wanna know why people keep saying this. The NASDAQ is almost back up to its YTD high.

I’ve said “nobody wants to hear your bullshit” which also tends to have a very large effect. Which way the effect swings is completely unknowable but the dynamic will be very different after haha

- Comment on Let my Duolingo streak expire cos I don't want to give them any more AI training for free and this popped up 🙄 1 week ago:
Yes I love Busuu! I switched about a years ago and I feel like it’s actually been teaching me Dutch instead of just brute force vocabulary memorization.
My only complaint is that it’s really aggressive about asking for you to subscribe. I just close the popups and I haven’t ran into anything that I cant do.

I believe you can get a users longest streak from the public API end point. IIRC it’s something like
duolingo.com/users/{username}but it’s been a few years - Comment on why does alcohol stop my back pain but medicine doesn't? 1 week ago:
Well it’s your feelings compared to the huge amount of scientific backing. And the article I linked to has a bunch of sources too, although I consider John Hopkins Hospital a valid primary source for medicine

Statistically, you should be doing more exercises in general.
But working out absolutely does improve sleep, as well as mood, digestion, memory recall, anxiety, and basically every other common ailment.
Please go work out more. Even if its just a walk or some crunches. Just get 15-30 minutes per day of continuous exercise. I promise you you’ll see a difference

Ice is naturally antimicrobial because North Face doesn’t make any coats small enough for bacteria and whatever so they get too cold and drive their little RVs down to Little Florida
- Comment on Anon visits a guy's house 1 week ago:
We need to deal with this now though. We can just keep kicking this ice under the fridge

Yeah but none of those are relevant to this question?

Do you have a source for this? Not doubting you, I’m just not European so I must have missed this

That’s also ignoring how all of your actual personal information (full name, address, social security, phone number, email, etc) have already been leaked 16 times this year alone
- Comment on do you think freewill truly exists? 1 week ago:
That’s actually kinda crazy to me because those “tedious conversations” are usually the highlight of my dad. It’s a nice lil bit of human connection while I slog through the corporate machine
- Comment on do you think freewill truly exists? 1 week ago:
So like when you get home from a normal and boring day at work you just walk into your house in silence and sit down?
No “hey honey how are you” or anything like that?

Growing up I had a friend whose mom was a little too crunchy and she ended up getting rid of their microwave because she thought the microwaves gave the food cancer and when you ate it you would get the cancer from your food
- Comment on Can the Internet be an ethnicity? 3 weeks ago:
Asian or white are not ethnicities
Not according to any real Census Bureau
- Comment on Can the Internet be an ethnicity? 4 weeks ago:
Ethnicity is absolutely not culture.
For example, a buddy of mine is Asian but he was adopted by a white family at birth so he is culturally No different than any other [white] guy from the Midwest.
Or, alternatively, there’s nothing stopping me from experiencing, learning about, and practicing cultural practices from another area of the world even though I am ethnically “just” white.
- Comment on i broke 4 weeks ago:
Outcomes are rarely determined by your own thoughts about the situation.
It’s like being anxious about driving because you’re worried someone is going to hit you. As long as you’re being safe and careful, being an anxious mess isn’t going to make you any safer and it can even make things worse.
Of course I’m not trying to say “just stop being anxious!” but you have to understand that only ever thinking about the worst case scenario will hinder far more progress than it will help.

Nobody blames the patient for getting lung cancer, they blame the patient for smoking for years knowing the risks.
Same thing with obesity related heart issues. You aren’t being blamed for the heart issues, you are being blamed for eating yourself into obesity.

This. 200 calories is not very much food. That’s like 1 tablespoon of peanut butter, a little over 1 banana, a little less than 3 eggs, about 30 individual almonds, or little over half an avocado.
A single Hershey’s chocolate bar, mountain dew, or the smallest size of my favorite star bucks drinks are all over 200 calories too.

What countries medical system encourages risky surgeries? As far as I’m aware “reducing risk” is most of the game in medicine
