14% is a lower bound. I suspect if you include studies that can't be replicated it's well over 50%. And yes with that much garbage the public should dismiss all new published scientific findings. Modern scientific publishing has been gamed it's nearly useless for learning anything directly because you can't trust it. Some fields more than others of course, but it's all bad. Yes this includes tier 1 journals.

You know I see these FUD articles every so often, there's some truth to it, but more interesting to me is the timing. BTC is probably going to see lower prices before the post-halving run up. This makes me think it's more likely part of an effort to get BTC at a discount then it is an organic event.

I'll put Lyn Alden's response to the cliam here: Bitcoin’s Energy Usage Isn’t a Problem. Here’s Why. https://www.lynalden.com/bitcoin-energy/

This is exactly why a marriage norm exists. You can't have large societies with a Signiant number of men not invested in it's future. They tend to find destructive ways to use their energy.

There are a couple of things to consider.

1) Women don't need men in modern society. They would likely stay married longer and be more picky about the type of man to bread with if they were stuck with him forever. The benefit is that women don't get stuck in abusive relationships.

2) Modern dating is turning us into polygamists. Women will pursue the top 10% (or so) of men and those men have little incentive to get married. There is a financial penalty to having children, but much less than getting married and having children. Of course this leads to single mothers with, at best, part time fathers.

Sure women probably hunted, but claiming there is no evidence for a "sex-based division of labor" is hogwash. Some hunted the same game as men, some probably other prey. Some probably gathered food depending on their child status and physical capabilities. The article focuses much on the advantages women are provided due to estrogen. Sure for some activities (like child rearing) and general health the female hormones make sense. But, I have yet to see any athlete in any sport (including ultra marathon) taking estrogen for an advantage. Willing to be proven wrong.

"In conclusion, using active surveillance, mRNA-1273 vaccine-associated mild transient myocardial injury was found to be much more common than previously thought. It occurred in one out of 35 persons, was mild and transient, and more frequent in women versus men."

1 in 35 were injured.

Note: We know heart muscle doesn't really repair itself well. Damaged muscle is replaced with scar tissue. So beware of the "transient" assertion.

Sure, but there's a wider context of encrypting all internet traffic to provide less context for the stuff that is sensitive.
