Reply to comment by wicklowdave in Compared to wolf pups and kittens, dog puppies tend to spontaneously match actions demonstrated by a human — even in the absence of food rewards by marketrent
I think it’d depend on what breed of dog. I’d claim a golden retriever or a malamute as my cousin but I don’t claim that bug-eyed pug as my relative.

That dog really was twerking and did NOT have butt worms.

How in the hell can this be scientific? The more white you look? What the hell does that even mean?

As a lay summary, they show that if there was an equivalent to the 2nd law of thermodynamics for entanglement, then you could use 2 copies of states to create 3 copies of states. However, that would violate the no copy principle, and other mathematical axioms. Therefore, there is no 2nd law of entanglement.
Note, they also show that you could get a 2nd law if there exists a macroscopic amount of new entanglement being fed to the system.

I definitely don't think my immune system is performing normally. Just was specifically mentioning the thymus part cause they said its rare for people to have an intact thymus when most by 30 went through a full involution.

I've seen many people that don't want to believe they have long covid because "it cannot last that long" etc, but have headaches, persistent fatigue etc.

That's why they put spike collars on dogs that have to protect livestock. The collars prevent the wolves biting dogs neck and gives them the upperhand

Free will may as well exist since it wouldn't matter if it didn't.

Reply to comment by km89 in Psychedelics activate the same receptors as serotonin, so why aren't we always tripping? Psychedelics may cause neuronal plasticity and relieve depression by activating intracellular serotonin receptors that serotonin itself cannot, suggests a new study. by rjmsci
Isn't the success rate of treating depression with SSRI's actually rather low?

Reply to "Findings indicate a negative log-linear relationship between per-capita GDP and adolescent life satisfaction." by PaulHasselbaink
Material inequality is especially upsetting to teenagers who can't afford cool stuff. There's probably more stress around having to become an adult and pick the right career instead of just knowing you're going to be a farmer or something. Too many choices in general, too much idle time, stuff like that. I was happier as a teenager working my ass off at McDonald's five nights a week than a lot of rich kids.

You're looking at this from a dualistic lens. It doesn't have to be either no free will or completely free will... Just like freedom of speech doesn't have to be completely free or completely censored... It's on a spectrum Perhaps we have some limited form of agency which is deterministic and yet unpredictable/undecidable Basically. If we copy pasted this universe and observed how the two would evolve over time. We would expect them to remain identical, because that's what deterministic means yet we would not be able to predict human behavior. As close to free will as it gets without involving the supernatural and the idea of a soul that is immaterial...

My puppy used to attentively watch me pee in the toilet & later I found pee on the floor right next to the toilet, he did it a couple of times.
