The real problem is so many different recommendations, but ….
I do see a higher amount consistently recommended as you get older, but never in the same sentence as exercise. I’m well past the age and weight where it takes intentional action to maintain muscle mass, and I really need to start doing that.
The algorithm started feeding me “Tai chi for older men”, so even that is telling me to exercise
Now it’s on the menu. While you can still ask for double meat in your burrito, you can also order a “protein bowl” that starts with double meat
Well the “good news” is the Lone Star Tick is expanding its territory. If we keep treating our environment like shit, it may just bring down the hammer on beef and dairy
It not really a question of “how?” Anymore. We know how to get most of the way there. We already developed technology to get at least halfway. We just need to roll it out, the “easy” part.
Of course we don’t yet have 100% of the answer, but it’s criminal how much of the answer is already in our hands and we refuse to use it, or keep dragging our feet
I don’t know, it could backfire. People don’t buy French wines for their low price but because of their reputation. Sometimes making a premium item more expensive just makes it seem more premium.
French wineries should lean into that. I bet they get huge profits
A lot of educated professional people are NOT eager to live in a “race to the bottom” type of place. Without serious attention to massive quality of life improvements, you couldn’t pay me enough
I imagine more like with x-rays. You’ll have a tech doing the procedure, and automation to guide the tech and interpret results. The results will be emailed to a remote ob/gyn, who will hopefully actually look instead of blindly believing ai slop. Hopefully they can do this with quick enough turnaround to respond to any issues but I’m not optimistic
their economic model is better than the West’s.
Policy. Their economic policy is better. Their government has some far-reaching strategies, creates comprehensive policies to develop them, and maintains those policies consistently across many years. They effectively guide competition and long term vision into their market, just like any competent government ought to do
That’s also the biggest place we’re failing. Lack of vision, lack of strategy, no consistency. Even worse when your administration enriches themselves, plays favorites, outright takes bribes, holds themselves above the law, rules out of spite and personal feelings, focuses only on short term
Maybe I’m continuing to be naively optimistic, but it’s hard to see military brass agreeing to attack nato troops
Gotta watch that newfangled philosophy - why don’t we just use the classics? /s
wtf I hope they let Don jr. put billions of dollars into this scam then nationalize as soon as Drump is out of office. Never in the US have people so blatantly abused policy for personal enrichment- and I’m including Hawaii
Yeah, it’s really good news and we should commend their efforts …. Well done …. But both are also still developing countries with vast populations needing huge additional energy for modernization. They deserve Benjamin more commendation BUT WE NEED TO DO OUR PART.
Define worse. I’m sure the developed countries will be much worse off in financial terms while developing will be far worse off in human misery.
Bangladesh already has its hands full with floods affecting millions, in addition to its other challenges. How could they cope about gets worse and more frequent every year? India already has serious water issues and huge population they already can’t handle well. Many hot areas risk regular temperatures above habitable levels. There’s no end to the serious impacts
Of course. I live in the us which isn’t afraid to spend ungodly amounts of money. I’m well above sea level and not in a flood plain. I have a well insulated house with air conditioning and can afford the electric bills. I may have to spend more money but I’ll get through without too much direct impact.
Then again, I’m not a sociopath. I see the impact of climate change right in front of my face and understand how it is getting worse. I also understand how it will affect the most those who can least afford it, both in my country and around the world
I also know we are historically the worst causer of climate change and are extremely deep in climate debt. Everyone trying to “what about China?” Is full of crap just making excuses for being a deplorable human being
Yeah, I wonder about this. I have a similar situation with a “2” car driveway where I must park within a foot to clear the sidewalk. It’s inconvenient since sometimes you need to rearrange cars and you can’t be at all sloppy with parking.
I might have to park one car on the grass if I didn’t want to be inconvenienced by rearranging cars, if I couldn’t park closely, or if I had larger vehicles.
And those uppity women …. who allowed them to vote? They need to stay home and raise my babies and cook for me. If mine gets out of hand again, I swear I’ll smack her upside of the head until she learns
/s
Ya know, I always used to believe we were getting closer to fix both sexism and racism, made decent progress , what do I know. Now every day I see the worst in humanity and all too often someone elected them into office or let them bribe their way into power
Hey Greenland, JD Vance desperately wants you. this is an emergency: order slipcovers for all your sofas, now while you still can
Think of it like living next to a neighbor who is in the midst of a mental breakdown. All the gibberish isn’t something you should have to worry about but you really can’t predict. As an American who doesn’t believe that can ever happen, yes you need to take it seriously. You need to get protective services involved, jab a little Thorazine and get out the straitjackets
I would hope there’s a big educational component.
My kids’ Boy Scout troop had someone take them to a shooting range every year. They had safety and handling lessons, as well as range masters for archery, 22’s, and their “collection”. I have to admit it was fun and I’m happy my kids had the safety lessons but I hope to hell that they never decide to own
Nooooo, not the windmills again. We have way too high electricity prices and need our wind farms to come online.
Let taco don Quixote be a nightmare of the past.
