_9ptr··on Sleep all comes down to the mitochondria
It has nothing to do with oxygen; Yawning is caused by other people yawning in the vicinity.

To be fair, a lot of people don't understand the old money system either

_9ptr··on Major rule about cooking meat turns out to be wrong
I only eat fresh-frozen steak from seasoned cutting boards

Also it's not wrong, but actually right
_9ptr··on Don't animate height
That's not what I was trying to say. But the fault lies with me for being sarcastic and silly.
_9ptr··on Has Brazil Invented the Future of Money?
I wouldn't be too sure about that.
_9ptr··on Don't animate height
How about not living in society and instead going into the wild?
_9ptr··on TODOs aren't for doing
No, the comment.
_9ptr··on TODOs aren't for doing
I find it weird to use TODO for something you don't actually have to do. But you're apparently not the only one to do this, and as long as everyone who's working on the same code is on the same page it's fine I suppose.

wow, rude

What a time to be alive
_9ptr··on Germany's Fairytale Castles Added to UNESCO's World Heritage List
It's no laughing matter

Markus Söder is from Franconia and not from Bavaria in the narrower sense. The comment still doesn't really make much sense.

Also, why did he omit the Umlaut from Söder if he used it for Nüsom?

How is that different from a copy of the original Eiffel tower?
_9ptr··on Man wearing metallic necklace dies after being sucked into MRI machine
5kg gold makes a surprisingly slender chain, actually. I've heard 1kg gold is as big as an iphone.
_9ptr··on Beyond Meat fights for survival
Well, that is probably just some kind of perception bias.

Of course vegans or vegetarians have more vegan or vegetarian friends.

If it helps you, I know hardly anyone who eats plant base meat.

Ok, I'll bite. What did you do to make youtube not work?

A Führer for your thoughts
_9ptr··on Protecting my attention at the dopamine carnival
It's a good idea to just uninstall some of these apps or even accounts and see if you really miss them. I found that not to be the case with Twitter and Facebook.

The "UnTrap"-Add-On for Firefox can block the more detrimental aspects of youtube, like shorts or the recommendation of other videos. I have it configured so that it always brings me directly to the "watch later"-playlist and I never go to the main page.

There is no such thing as starvation mode. If you consistently don't overeat, you won't gain your weight back.
_9ptr··on GLP-1s are breaking life insurance
I can't support this with data, but I'd think the increase in price and compounding effect of more and more people quitting, plus absence of smoking in the media, has had more of an effect
_9ptr··on GLP-1s are breaking life insurance
Life insurance is just another word for bounty
_9ptr··on GLP-1s are breaking life insurance
I don't know the situation in the USA, but in Europe you wouldn't find many young (up to ~35) people who have data on any health markers. And these are the main market.
