It’s also the metabolic changes in pH. CO2 is a proxy for ph as carbon dioxide acidifies the blood as it dissolves.

To quote xkcd, "So does a handgun" https://xkcd.com/1217/

Starship (including the Super Heavy) weighs about 10x as much as the Starliner (including the Atlas V)

Do you have any evidence to support any of these claims

I would counter that by pointing out that if your aim is to achieve a certain degree of bioavailability of TCH, you'd have to smoke a larger quantity of a lower-potency product, thus exposing yourself to more of the combustion by-products than necessary.

Yes thank you. Midnight brain fart. It was Farxiga & Jardiance I was thinking of

2. Glucose is transported in intestines via a glucose-sodium antiporter protein. Maybe we can find a drug that blocks this and you can eat as much sugar as you want! (Turns out you’ll have uncontrolled diarrhea if you do).

It's very cool! It's the SGLT protein. It's actually a sodium-glucose co-transporter and is why gatorade is so effective! It's the perfect mix of salt, sugar, and water to take advantage of that very protein (where salt goes, water follows).

And yes there is a drug that targets these - it's the SGLT inhibitors and they're very in vogue right now. Ozempic and Mounjaro are the two big ones in the news right now. They act on the SGLT I (found only in the kidney) so that you urinate more sugar. They don't act on the SGLT 2 (only found in the gut) but other medications in that class act on both.

But congratulations and alas! You nearly invented gatorade and a multi-billion dollar diabetes and weight-loss drug. Hardly bone-headed ideas.

Deep vein thromboses are real. It is very much recommended particularly on long haul flights

But teams behave in an infinite combination of size, members, companies, and time

Slightly off topic, but I realize this is a subject I'd be interested in reading more about. Would be interested in suggestions in the same vein as Creativity, Inc. by Edwin Catmull?

I think they were trying to make a joke and meant “redundant” instead of “oxymoron”

Unfortunately, it isn’t outlier behavior

I’m pretty sure being thing helps you with your sugar.

Yes, adipose tissue contributes to insulin resistance and impaired glucose metabolism. Why? Not exactly sure. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.molmet.2019.12.014

Funny, I misread the comment the exact same way. He was not suggesting that “ok” is derived from “poppycock”

They didn’t say all side effects were attributable to nocebo effects.

Same, yet Apple's System Status still has marked the software update issue as resolved

Great, now they have time to make a Greg Egan tv show instead.

How can you claim that porn is safe? You're completely sweeping porn addiction under the rug. Viewing porn itself is not inherently unhealthy, but to make a claim that it's safe is at minimum misleading.

This is remarkable. I would love to see this in black mirror

Why are the subways still open? Seems like low hanging fruit to close those.

The iPhone 8 is still included in their line up

Clickbait hyperbole and not news. Mods please remove this.

Looks a lot higher than that. Though 2016-2017 took a slow turn.

Doesn’t this negate a lot of the benefits of de-ICEing vehicles?

Sure some of the benefits, but the context is in the discussion of incentives and the attractiveness for the average buyer. 10km/day drivers have their needs sufficiently met with cheaper, shorter-range EVs.

An argument / possible explanation that I've heard is that the increased risk for suicide can be attributed to the beneficial effect of reducing lethargy and fatigue, effectively removing one major barrier between suicidal ideation and carrying out the act.

Wow what a horrible website - the entire article was nearly completely covered with popover ads

One "dreadful"consequence could be quarantine lest we violate the prime directive

If it’s accelerating along the longitudinal axis, then the slant doesn’t matter. It’ll never experience more than 1g orthogonal to the axis.

The problem is getting out of the thickness of the lower atmosphere. That’s why rockets go up before they go sideways.

This really reminds me of the intelligent AI bees in Permutation City by Greg Egan

You're correct. They included a link to the actual paper: https://stm.sciencemag.org/content/11/492/eaav1102

According to the paper, they achieved 85% sensitivity and 82% specificity (N=98)
