Same thing happened at UofMichigan. Luckily, they gave us 15gb and most of my storage over that was from photos, but i had 100s of gigs. So I had to scramble to move them all to an external harddrive using google takeout, which itself was a huge PITA, mainly because the UI is so horrible it required me to manually click download on every individual 5gb zip.

Do you really think that the people who worked on this study didn't consider your knee-jerk level-1 confounding factor? Obviously they look socioeconomic status into account when they were studying all-cause mortality, what study wouldn't?

Having trouble wrapping my head around this...how can you not use an array of lenses to focus many images of the sun onto a single very hot image on the earths surface?

I definitely got that part, I was thinking about just usually a linear ramp to get to the top in a certain amount of time. But I didn't think about the fact that the ball kind of has to rotate around at the top in order to be perfectly balanced so now I see why there is some nuance.

Why can't it just be a triangle? Is there a reason it needs to be curved?
