Yes, one should be skeptical of "the science says so" or "one specific expert says so". It's very much a mindset to embrace.

But it doesn't really work that way, the cost of good faith skepticism is so high as to not be in reach of most people.

For example, a lot of people are skeptical of climate change and reject the scientific consensus. This starting point of skepticism is to be encouraged, if only it would be done in the way the article describes.

You can't challenge the consensus without becoming an expert on the matter yourself. At the absolute very least it would require some hundreds of hours of reading and analysis.

Most people do not have the time, will or expertise/education level required to seriously and in good faith provide any type of challenge at all, other than outright denial. And it obviously doesn't help that there's many rabbit holes encouraging lazy skepticism: denial, conspiracy theorists, it's a business model to be anti-science.

In the end though, the general population doesn't care about science or the pursuit of "real truth". Only about its outcomes. When science invents a better battery, that's great. Yay science. When science tells me to eat less meat, that's bad science, has to be false.
"Our observation that mice fed cooked meat
retained higher body mass despite lesser intake (fresh- or dry-
weight basis) indicates that cooking increases the energy extracted
per gram of meat fed. This finding contrasts with the predictions of
conventional nutritional assays, which on the basis of the Atwater
system, return roughly equivalent metabolizable energy densities
for raw and cooked meat on a dry-weight basis (Table S1). The
problem with the Atwater system is that it ignores changes in di-
gestibility, costs of digestion, and costs of immune defense, all of
which are likely influenced by food processing. The result is nu-
tritional inaccuracy. For example, cooking is known to increase the
proportion of starch digested at the terminal ileum before access
by most gut bacteria (2). Starch that resists digestion in the small
intestine delivers only a proportion of its metabolizable energy to
the consumer, because the short-chain fatty acids produced during
bacterial fermentation of starch generate less ATP than the glu-
cose produced by starch hydrolysis in the small intestine. Addi-
tionally, the fatty acids are consumed as fuel for gut bacteria, and
there are further losses from the production of combustible gases
(40–42). Cooking, thus, increases the energetic value of starch to
an extent greater than is represented by the Atwater system. Such
differences between the calorie values determined by the Atwater
system and the physiological outcomes observed in this study are
relevant for the manipulation of diets to increased or decreased
caloric loading."

No, the latter refers to simply not charging people. You can still confiscate their drugs and subject them to assessments a la Portugal.

The name "Easter" is an outlier. It's Πάσχα ("Pascha") in Greek, Pasqua in Italian, Pâques in French, Pascua in Spanish, Pasen in Dutch, Påske in Norwegian. It's only in German ("Ostern") and English we name the festival after the old month name ("Esoturmonath") it tended to occur in. The Venerable Bede says the month was named after the goddess Eōstre. That's the sum of the information we have on the goddess. That doesn't make Easter an originally pagan holiday.

If I had to pick one thing out of all the things in the universe that is never too late to start a career in, I would pick writing.

When Günter Grass (famous German author) was asked for advice to young writers he said something like: "Don't try to become a writer just because you want to be one. And if you absolutely must do it, don't study languages. Pick a career that forces you into contact with lots of people. A waiter in a restaurant or something. If young people start to write without knowing the world, they risk writing about their own belly button too soon." (Writing about your belly button being an expression for writing about your own selfish viewpoints and insecurities)

I'm in my mid thirties and published my first short stories last year. I'm very pleased with the result and I'm glad I didn't publish my earlier stuff. I was terribly opinionated while trying to sound enlightened and only out to prove something to myself and the world. Now I have the maturity to be more expressive and it shows in the feedback I get. (Always express, never impress they say.)

Now I'm putting off my first novel to learn about computers, because I feel like having a good job is a more pressing issue right now than artistic expression.

And I'm absolutely positive that it won't be too late for my novel when I'm 40.

The gist being that pension funds hedged with derivatives that are dependent on small movements of bond rates. However, since the rates increased quickly, the pensions needed to sell more bonds to fund their margin calls, which further caused a need to sell more bonds. They started their own death spiral.

I believe its mostly a myth that helium supplies are dwindling. Its a byproduct of natural gas production which is something the USA should be using more of anyway.

Thanks for asking this question, I've found the discussion interesting. I have also noticed the negative long terms affects of alcohol and much like you I find it difficult not to drink in certain social situations (am in the UK). I agree giving up completely is probably the best strategy (for physical and mental health) - but having failed to do that myself I moved to low alcohol beers (these guys are good: https://theoriginalsmallbeer.com)
Ok. What exactly are you trying to imply? It's hard to draw conclusions from your gaps, it's pretty clear that you are saying that young African-American men commit more violent crimes per capita.

What should I draw from this though? That the USA has a violent history with slavery and segregation and those scars haven't been healed, that the government hasn't figured out a way to fix this historical issue?

Or should I draw some other conclusion that I prefer to not type out because it'd be too disgusting to even entertain it?
Ah, cursors. This seems to be one area where the Wayland situation is comically bad. I use Sway, and have these in my config:

Well, I get at least six different cursor sizes depending on the window hovered. Sample apps with rough eyeballed scales: Firefox gets 1×, XWayland gets 1.5×, Alacritty 2×, Sway 2.5×, Zeal 4×, and I can’t remember what the app was that had something else again…
Is it on modern Ubuntu? Because it may be caused by the fact that Firefox is packaged as a snap.

> needle exchanges... end up turning their neighborhood into the newest drug slum.

How do you suppose that happened? Do you think there was a severely addicted population that could not get their fix due to concerns of transmittable diseases? So were forced to quit cold turkey, at the height of their despair, for lack of sanitary injection paraphernalia? You surely realize how absurd that sounds, right?

Since you seem to be a well reasoned and articulate person, I'm genuinely curious how could a needle exchange program cause neighborhoods to turn into "drug slums"? Perhaps you are seeing a correlation with drug use that does not reveal any causality? Perhaps needle exchange programs induce normalization of drug use in a certain area, making addicts fell less rejected and thus attracting them there? But surely such a visible concentration of addicts in a certain area is just a symptom a much larger invisible problem and condemning those those affected to AIDS or Hep-C does nothing to solve the root cause?

This is an example of "how can we keep X relevant in a world where it is not?" Geothermal is falling away because maintaining a steam turbine is expensive.

There are plenty of efficient storage options that don't depend on a steam turbine. Those are favored except where the storage medium is also a transportable, valuable product, as for ammonia.
(Ammonia is burned in combined-cycle turbines already built to burn NG.)
I don't think it is a good idea to reduce the supply over time. It may make sense in some cases, but some addicts are better of by having a constant supply. Pharmaceutical grade opioids are pretty safe. Far safer than legal drugs like tobacco or alcohol.

No, that's not possible. This approach can only fool models that identifies people as a whole based on a 2D array of pixels. It can't fool models that understand that a person is a composite of other features. If you create models that can detect individual features like eyes, nose, ears, head, arms, hands, legs, neck, fingers, hair and further feed those into other models that can validate how parts belong together for them to form a human (pose estimation, outline detection to 3D mesh mapping), this research would not work at all.

This research works only on straightforward single network models where input is a 2D array of pixels, and output is a yes/no.
Maybe that was the lesson to be learned all along? When a distinguished but elderly scientist is almost certainly right, he probably heard it somewhere else first.
It is probably in the job definition of a parent to worry too much. Seriously, I always thought my parents were constantly overreacting, but now I get it. Because for the parent its also often tough to tell, and its also really easy to underestimate problems, especially when they are young. So better safe than sorry, I guess.

For example, really young children can dehydrate to the point of requiring immediate hospitalization within 24 hours, which happens quite fast when they are sick.

Strength is the ability to break a chocolate bar into four pieces with your bare hands and then eat just one of those pieces. – Judith Viorst

I noticed others who are more detached, don't feel that guilt and can stop when they want like you. Seems the better way to approach things is in "smaller bites".

> Solar, if you use more than ~1% of the land you're radically altering the albedo and habitat

Both of these may actually turn out to be beneficial. Putting up solar panels above agricultural land ("Agri-PV") is not just avoiding clobbering up arable land with PV panels, but also has benefits for the plants [1]: they need less water because less sun directly hits the plants and heats up the soil which means both more resilience in drought periods and more capacity to regenerate groundwater planes, and the soil erosion from wind is reduced as well.

I wonder if putting up panels in the desert could help out de-desertification efforts as well for the same reasons.

As for albedo - given that we're already having issues with global warming, it is not that far-fetched to say that solar radiation being reflected off to space is a good thing overall.

Well, I have no way to prove my experience through data, since it's not being taken by any reputable sources I know of, sadly...

But what I can say at least is that I would suspect that the 'drug slum' aspect occurs because the drug users flock towards those needle exchanges and congregate near them for convenience sake. I say that, because that's what seemed to be the case when I lived in those areas. People I never saw in those neighborhoods before, suddenly practically lived there. So I suspect that is the case.

Anyways, it's getting late and my patience is starting to wear thin, so I should probably go now before nicer folk like you start to think of me as less well reasoned and less articulate a person.
