Designer of cultured fruit - Fighting for the prolongation of all that is good and beautiful in the world
Dominant reply here seems to be that Americans are dumb.

Other option is that they actually -are- OK with immigration but only if managed well. (and extremely partisan about who manages immigration well)

if bad people were all stupid wed have a lot less problems

wow! so excited about this study. It feels like this kind of data should be able to explain -a lot- about geopolitics and inequality. looking forward to dive deeper

they made 20 or so edits, how many would it take before you would call it an actual dire wolf?

Related, can you dive into what it means to -inherit- in biology? We always talk about DNA, but I guess you also inherit a piece of cell membrane, golgi, nucleus etc.

there's a thing called plant cell culture where you grow the cells without the plant:) there's a bunch of companies working on cultured cacao right now. First bar of chocolate has been made already

waiting until they start describing milk as an "animal based beverage", sounds gross lol

oh, wait maybe I get it; when more money flows into the country this will eventually be spend either on importing goods, or investing in other countries.

The other way around, when more is exported, the money generated will have to end up in foreign investments.

I also don't understand this; from the formula it seems that whenever more capital flows into the country this always has to result in either less export, or more import. Intuitively this makes no sense.

Same here in Amsterdam! I wonder if we could lure them into our nature-inclusice facade so they can help curb our rat plague. Is that an ecological sound way of getting rid of rats?

power-seekers are charlatans, and use social media. But I think they also spread misinformation in real life. Just think about the high-school bully spreading fake gossip

she would be less
dependent on her spirit so
she said
“i don’t want to know how to make no rolls”
with her lips poked out
and the old woman wiped her hands on
her apron saying “lord
these children”
and neither of them ever
said what they meant
and i guess nobody ever does

her grandmother called her from the playground
“yes, ma’am”
“i want chu to learn how to make rolls” said the old
woman proudly
but the little girl didn’t want
to learn how because she knew
even if she couldn’t say it that
that would mean when the old one died

Lab-based instead of project-based funding while training leaders to scout talent from all parts of society

I think it is possible that rich people actually do more groundbreaking science because they have the funds as well as the safety net to focus on long-shot efforts.
Solving this problem then would require society-wide redistribution of wealth

I've got a perspective paper in the pipeline hope to share a lot more about this very soon!

anyone seen a good meta-analysis of this? This is a very low sample size

thanks! I find Excel also the most useful for Gantt but never thought about dependencies and delegations, makes sense.
