Reply to comment by TheGnarWall in Analysis finds antimicrobial drug use in agriculture is much higher than reported. The use of antibiotics in animal farming — a major contributor to antimicrobial resistance — is expected to grow by 8% between 2020 and 2030 despite ongoing efforts to curtail their use. by MistWeaver80
Morningstar farms and gardein grilled chicken strips are good and cheaper too.
Tofurkey also do a refrigerated grilled chicken type thing in a kind of sauce.

Huh. Interesting. I’m Ashkenazi and when I got TB at age 12, my body sort of encapsulated it (I don’t know how else to describe it) and I was able to take medicine twice a day for 6 months until it was cleared. I cried myself to sleep every night thinking I was going to die.

Yep. I’m afraid you’re the winner of this exchange. Maybe if there’s a real “zen” virus that comes around and makes us all happy to sit around in the dark and cold, just enjoying each other’s company, and being happy with very little, we could slow the ascent into catastrophe, but I don’t see it coming. We’ll be burning each other before we give up combustion-derived energy, unfortunately.

Reply to comment by ctorg in Analysis showed that 65.6% of women who took extra Vitamin D gave birth naturally. The study analysed results from the MAVIDOS trial which involved 965 women being randomly allocated an extra 1,000 International Units (IU) per day of vitamin D during their pregnancy or a placebo. by Wagamaga
They're not that low everywhere. For example, in Finland (my birth country) the rate is about 83%, while also having one of the world's lowest infant & maternal mortality. US probably just does C-sections more than medically justified (more $$$?)

That’s how I always saw it. It’s not really about the human rights argument to me. It’s about efficiency. It’s more efficient to fund it all from one source instead of each individual agonizing over plan details, arguing with insurance over claims, dealing with doctors, etc. It’s also wildly more efficient to have a healthy, productive population. The current system only benefits the wealthiest and the insurance companies

Green energy is generally cheaper and more easily distributed and crowd sourced.
The argument that first world countries shouldn't pave the way because poor countries will choose coal is faulty.

We don't need to get to zero. That measure isn't helpful.

Reply to comment by Schemati in Researchers tested a large sample of the prominent major AI technologies available today and found not only did they reproduce human biases in the recognition of facial age, but they exaggerated those biases by giuliomagnifico
So what is the result you want? A machine that can tell your age, or a machine that understands that age is just a number?
The reason it ended up like this was that we did not currate the input to give an output that fit ideal output.
It's not garbage data, it's human data. Maybe humans are garbage, but just wait till it starts touching more human taste and preferences, like intelligence or beauty. We will get real mad at those results.

> With the new solar and wind projects coming online this year, we forecast these two energy sources will account for 16% of total generation in 2023, up from 14% last year and 8% in 2018. In contrast, our forecast share of generation from coal falls from 20% in 2022 to 18% in 2023; the forecast share from natural gas declines from 39% to 38%.

Reply to New study quantifying microplastic pollution from domestic laundry, researchers estimated that annual microfibre release from the UK’s washing was between 6,860 and 17,847 tonne by 9273629397759992
Why don't they release a law requiring output to be filtered? Would atleast reduce it somewhat with no great effort

Does vitamin d make a child’s head smaller?

Luckily for them, China is way ahead of us on renewable energy technologies.
