Oh shit looks like you got em'

Who wouldn't? They are doing some of the most advanced rocket science on the planet. Of course, trusting corporations statements and research is an entire topic of it's own. Taking Elon Musk seriously on the other hand...

Thanks! Both look like very decent studies so I am not certain where the difference comes from. I suspect that the division into age brackets, or averaging across all of the them may be the cause. Either way, it seems that the effects of being slightly overweight are barely statistically significant. The more you know

After some cursory research ([1] among other meta-analyses), this does not seem to be true below the age of 80. Could you cite a source?

And when someone says "dream job" they are referring to the semantically correct meaning of the word? I have my doubts. When people say they're dream job consists of doing something, like "helping people", I think it is the "work" that interests them, and not the financial details.

What you call sick is only sick if you take your awfully correct definition, which I honestly don't think correlates well with what people mean with it.

Thats also why I would still tend to agree with you, because I dont believe in laboring for some bosses benefit either. But certainly not with the initial wording

Nah thats bullshit. And this is coming from somebody who would tend to agree with you, but you can't always be so excruciatingly black and white. For example, my dream job is what I do in my free time, except in a non-profit organisation where I am not chained by an individual lack of resources. Some work furthers humanity. Some work is completely voluntary. Sometimes a dream job is that way to scratch the biological itch to keep our brains busy.

Additionally, this supports the bullshit capitalist argument that people wouldnt want to work anymore if not coerced into it. I believe people would still dream of doing important jobs that help humanity even out of their own free will.

The difference between an orbit that lasts 5 years and one that lasts a hundred is approximately 100-200km, the limit is quite sharp and actually quite tricky to get exactly right. That will cost you about a millisecond or two in latency tops. It is more likely that SpaceX is required to adhere to rules made by the FCC/FAA.

Feeling pretty called out, ngl

Well, the article refers to both :)

I think you'd be right about the "number of diagnoses" statement in the title, but I think the discussion is about the deaths due to cancer, which have also increased and would not have as strong of a correlation for the reasons others mentioned

What the hell is this? I am wondering if the people in this picture ever even met boys and men that wrote fan fiction, because it sure as hell never was cool. Writing in general in many genres like romance, poetry - and of course fan fiction - got young men I knew bullied. The girls I knew also were made of fun of for it, but typically less so. Except for creative writing being more normalized for women in the cultures I have experienced, I would argue this is a gender agnostic issue. The later posts get it, imo

This reads like AI generated crap. And considering the thumbnail is also AI-geberated art, it doesn't seem unlikely

Why dont people just keep their hand-written parts? The AI portions add next to nothing.

From briefly having worked on a project where this was a relevant issue, and I had to throw good people of foreign nationality off the team due to higher up NASA decisions: ITAR also becomes relevant when you want to access data and hardware that is ITAR regulated for use in your mission. This is the case for all space missions -- even for SpaceX, who likes to do things in-house -- since the advanced electronics, alloys, etc. will come from elsewhere and fall under regulation.
