Why can’t you asume S(2)? Is it not included in the inductive hypothesis S(k)?
solids··on All People in Canada are the Same Age (1997)
I heard this in the “All horses have the same color” version.
solids··on The emergence of heat and humidity too severe for human tolerance
I hope private ownership will remain the same, given the fact that climate change is gradual enough to keep the status quo (which is also a huge downside that prevents humanity in taking coordinate and efficient actions against it)

The usage of "he" was most probably unconscious and due to being a non native english speaker, rather than a deliberate act.
solids··on Show HN: An interactive map of countries by tap water quality
This is nice! However I don’t think it’s very accurate to put a number to a whole country, when even the health of the pipes in your own house or even in your neighborhood can affect the quality a lot.

solids··on Ten-Hour Time-Restricted Eating Benefits Patients with Metabolic Syndrome
Right now I'm doing 16/8, with 3 full meals a day, and I also spend one day a week in full fasting.

IMHO, the current status of nutrition is very divergent, almost every habit is backed up and discouraged at the same time by more than one study. There seems to be some agreements (about sugar, for instance) but the rest is not clear at all. And on top of it, you have to take into account how your own body reacts to a particular habit. Seems that trial/error is the best option for now.

Wow

solids··on The Battle to Separate Safa and Marwa
This is unbelievable. Yesterday there was a post well ranked here about the "failure of medicine". I think that besides all well known downsides or modern medicine, we have achieved an amazing progress in the last one hundred years.
solids··on Moms Who Were Extremely Online in 1993
I’m from Argentina. Here the we have WhatsApp groups for everything. Friends, coworkers. Even is common to have groups that are subsets of groups from a bigger one, because of more affinity or willingness to discuss certain topics that will spam the bigger one. So yes, I can pretty much confirm that this private groups change a lot the way we communicate.
