- Comment on I love houses that trap heat! /s 2 hours ago:
When my wife and I were looking for a home, our main priority was actually that it’s “climate proof”.
We found a souterrain apartment facing east, on top of a hill, far from any rivers or forest.
So it stays cool in the summer even without A/C, and is unlikely to flood or get caught in a forest fire. - Comment on Stay chill, no matter what 6 hours ago:
It’s even the same word in German.
They’re called Schultüte.

- Comment on What's the evolutionary advantage of very long hair on human heads? 6 days ago:
Evolution doesn’t produce perfect adaptations, just “good enough”.
Humans lost their body hair and got more on their head when they developed walking upright in Africa.
Lets sweat cool the body down and protects the head from the sun.
At some point, something lead to a mutation that turned curly hair into straight hair, and that seems to have been selected for in populations living in colder climates.
But that doesn’t mean it increased chances of survival. Maybe it was just preferred by sexual partners for some reason, which may even have been cultural at that point. - Comment on my current daddy fling born in the 1970s 6 days ago:
