- Replying to @WilliamA_33Skipped the part where he told AT control that he didn’t want to hurt anyone & that he learned how to fly entirely on a desktop simulator. Then he executed a complete barrel roll w/ like 3 meters clearance above the Sound.
- In Ireland, I saw a guy kayaking alone in the middle of the sea with a mask on.
- Replying to @KirkegaardEmilI'd implore him to actually spend some time in Sub-S Africa. It profoundly changes anyone who goes-- it was one of the most didactic periods of my lfie. Though, as you note, it's not congruent w/ the cases of very appreciable low-IQ in the West: most sub-S have no problems with
- Replying to @RandomSprintIt’s econ with math emphasis, obviously. A fungible, interdisciplinary “everything studies”. Highest earning of the easiest STEM degrees, though some of that is due to positive selection (a good thing when you consider the quality of classmates).
- Replying to @Trey_ExplainerIt’s def “power” in the computation of the log of [H+]. The base 10 raised to some power “x” (ie, the pH) equals the measured concentration of hydrogen.
- Replying to @low_dosageI met a few adventurers (Brit and German couples) doing this throughout Africa, and most of them were doing it in fortified, self-contained overland vehicles like this. One guy had hidden guns. Completely necessary given how dangerous and remote that trip would be.
- Replying to @CompositeGuy_I’ll tell anyone who listens that many African languages barely contain tenses, gradations, subjunctives.Replying to @0x49fa98Secondary to the point you’re making, I do think it would benefit more ppl to learn an African language & to relate it to broader abstraction ability / theory of mind. I had full command of Ghanaian Twi after 1 semester of instruction.
- Replying to @Rainmaker1973This is the case for all climacteric fruits— apple, apricot, avocado, banana, bitter melon, blueberry, cantaloupe, durian, kiwi, mango, nectarine, passion fruit, peach, pear, plum, tomato— which shouldn’t be stored together (including in the fridge) b/c an ethylene cascade will
- Replying to @foldyrhandsThat company has conceivably done more to bolster global GDP than any other in history
- Replying to @custardloafAlways disliked this study & interpretation. It just plainly measures curiosity about shock intensity rather than intolerance to boredom.
- Replying to @crotchner2My youngest brother did HGH monotherapy. Growth plate imputation predicted adulthood height at 5’1” (he’s adopted from Ethiopia). Nightly HGH from ages ~8-18 (varying dosages). Ended up ~5’9”; probably aided in cranial growth too.
- Replying to @StackJoe and @WilliamA_33Yup— even better was that Alaska’s corporate response amounted to “fair play, Sky King”. They were entirely indemnified w/ no deductible too.
- Replying to @Howlingmutant0The UFC has been trying to break into the Indian market for a decade, but every guy they find from some Indian bush league gets blasted into orbit on first contact by a journeyman. Doesn’t help that they have the serum T of an average Nordic woman.
