Link. “deaths from drugs, alcohol and suicide happen everywhere, they’re happening disproportionately not in liberal big cities but in left-behind rural regions”
It’s the rural where the GOP lives and rural really does suck. They aren’t making that up.
Link. The wealth isn’t just a tax evasion illusion, it’s real. A fascinating story.
Link. “apparent rampant stimulant use at FTX” does deserve more attention — I gather stimulant/cognitive drug use is popular among SV types who are too young to remember how it turns out. Stimulants are a great way to send someone on the edge over the edge.
SBF does seem a tragic figure to me — as are many crooks big and small. I wonder what story he’ll tell after a few years in prison.
Link. From 2009 but I don’t think there’s much better since. Exercise can cause weight loss assuming some dietary control — but it’s a LOT more exercise than most people imagine.
Greater amounts of PA (>250 min wk(-1)) have been associated with clinically significant weight loss.
Link. Not original design but the model “knows things”.
Link. Israel has no moral authority any more. Hamas deserves to be destroyed. Biden’s approach is probably the best the US can do.
Link. Republican? Maybe if you have a time machine.
Link. “All Seasons Press, which published Meadows’ memoir The Chief’s Chief in 2021, is seeking nearly $3 million in damages”
Link. They were warned.
Link. Not a shock.
Link. If one side uses human shields the other side still cannot disregard their safety. Siege is not legal (I think).
Link. Blame the GOP.
Link. For once nobody is surprised.
Link. It would kill Apple revenue.
Link. For things like this there are Nobel prizes.
Link. This is going to be very interesting. Apple is going to be embarrassed.
Link. An obvious threat that will require many interlocking defenses.
Link. A warning to left Dem.
Link. Employers have infinite choice so make candidates travel to interview.
Link. Up for Native American, Alaska Native and white mothers, Black infants remain at highest risk.
Link. ““We looked into the deeper Earth,” said Qian Yuan, a postdoctoral researcher at the California Institute of Technology who led the research. “We found big chunks of the impactor Theia.”
Link. “When backing up to APFS, Time Machine reverses the design used in High Sierra: instead of using snapshots to determine what needed to be backed up before creating a backup using traditional hard links, most of the time Time Machine determines what has changed using the original method with FSEvents”
Link. We can’t fix it and it doesn’t matter economically any more. Oil disruption only speeds decarbonization.
Asia is what matters. Containing China.
Link. Many Mozi victims in China and Russia. Sounds like Mozi’s author is now cooperating.
Link. Her review of the “obesity is not a disease” movement is as fair as can be.
The inverse correlation between wealth and weight suggests room for cultural factors (or curious genetics).
