- Comment on Least extreme biophysics phd 1 week ago:
Also the motivation of such research is usually not purely scientific, if at all, so the data gathered is often useless.
- Comment on Fossils on Fossils 1 week ago:
Yes, just like there are archeologists digging human fossilized bones now.

Not everyone needs them.
- Comment on How would we choose a "world language" in a fair way, for a hypothetical one world government? 1 week ago:
European countries use English, there’s no way French or German stand a chance. For a world language, I think it’s either English or Chinese, depending on geopolitical situation.
- Comment on Nothing against disabled people but how come I can't replace my arm with something augmented that can carry more weight? Also other parts? My disabled bro asked me this and got me thinking 1 week ago:
I think it was meant as “without damaging something in your body”.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
I’d go for languages, they’re cool and you can do lots of stuff with them. I followed my passion too and it turned out great for me. It’s not just about the subject of your study, but also about the people you meet at uni. The contacts can then help you to get an interesting job. And you’ll find friends that are nerdy the same way as you!

I thought the death rate among antivaxers was so high that they provide regular fertilization for the trees.

I think they’re marrying it.

With some types of beard there’s no other way.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
You would have to shave or trim your hair as well to get rid of clogging and slow drying.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
But kissing a bearded man is not a big deal. I think it’s a question of preferences.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
OP was not asking for our opinion on that.
- Comment on Owing your home today is nearly impossible, but even if you did the ever increasing property taxes will bury you 2 weeks ago:
Correct me if I’m wrong, but that applies to reducing property taxes as a whole. I’m talking about a mixed approach.
- Comment on Owing your home today is nearly impossible, but even if you did the ever increasing property taxes will bury you 2 weeks ago:
You make it sound like it’s either or. The resonable thing to do would be to reduce property taxes for the property the owner lives in and tax even more the additional properties. The goal is for people to be able to afford their homes and at the same time making properties not so attractive as an investment.
- Comment on Trump Is Hiding Something on Ukraine 2 weeks ago:
You’re right.The theory looks kind of reasonable, but I think there’s no need for it to be true to explain what is happening. The Trump-Putin cooperation is mutually beneficial in a big way. Trump gets to be a dictator and Putin gains the territories he longs for. What’s not to love?

I think it depends on the species. Also, most species have non-flying females.
- Comment on People complain that it's poor design that humans eat and breath through the same pipe(throat). Are there any animals which don't though? 3 weeks ago:
Yep, my cousin dives like that, it’s a superpower.

Quite a lot of people can close their nose-holes by curling up their upper lip. I’m not one of them, unfortunately.

Not just the USA, their allies as well.
- Comment on check it before you wreck it 4 weeks ago:
It’s just a bit of fun. Scientific papers are mostly read by people who are familiar with the way titles like this work. Also there’s no need to understand the whole title perfectly, titles are not that important. It’s more like an id number. You read the abstract to see whether you’re interested in the article.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
Rasism is naturally present in people’s psyche. People always needed to protect their ingroup againts the other groups of people. It’s a sad fact that so many people are not able to control their monkey brains better. We know it’s possible. I’ll never give up waiting for my Star Trek utopia.
- Comment on Why would America declaring cartels terrorist organizations be a problem for Mexico? 4 weeks ago:
If there are close ties between the rulers and the criminals, that’s
unfortunateadmirable. FIFY - Comment on check it before you wreck it 4 weeks ago:
When we were young, the world was still on track. We’d never dare to be this audacioud, to vandalize the language and soil the academic dignity and precision. The new generations are lost.
- Comment on check it before you wreck it 4 weeks ago:
Getting the joke is not necessary for understanding the article and even the title has the explanatory other half, right? The joke is just a bonus, not gatekeeping.
- Comment on check it before you wreck it 4 weeks ago:
Or they might be just a sign of playfulness. They can present a barrier for those who don’t know, but I doubt it’s intentional, so I wouldn’t call it gatekeeping.
Also, it’s just a playful first half of the title. The other half explains the important stuf in a traditional way, so noone gets harmed, right?
