It seems this includes genes that don’t play a direct role in the formation of facial features.


And serenity is nowhere to be found.


I’m not sure the object’s particles are the observable parts though. When a photon bumps into your table and then into your eye, allowing you to see the table, does it bump directly into the table particles, or does it interact with the particles’ field?


Me too, but it’s not the only thing in life I like doing. I’d love to have more time to spend with my family, more time to do music, to do hikes in nature, more time to devote to theatre, to play with my cats, to learn languages, to do sports, more time to meet my friends and other nice people, more time to learn math, physics, anthropology and etymology… I don’t have it. I have some limited time that I can give to gardening and very limited space (a large balcony).
I’d love to live several lives, alas, I have just this one and have to divide my time and prioritize. If you’ve seen Everything everywhere all at once - that’s a film that resonated with me greatly.


I do grow plants both at home and at work, I know exactly what I’m talking about :) At home it costs me more than in shop (mostly watering and some materials), so it’s more about being a nice hobby and it feels great to have some produce of my own. I also don’t have much space - not everyone can have a garden. I do compost - no feces though, omg, that must take some know-how to make it safe when it’s human and on small scale. Time is a big limiting factor - I do have a job and a family. Anyway, I love my plants and I’d also recommend growing some, at least to those who have the space and time :)
To be fair, growing your own food costs you a lot of time and is also not for free - you need the space, you need water… It takes a lot of dedication. Buying cheap vegetables, as you mentioned, might be the more viable option.


My botanist brain was like: it is a decent medicinal plant, but maybe they’re overestimating thyme a bit.


I have no idea - as I’ve mentioned, I find it wierd.


There can be many more factors influencing lifespan than just diet, though.


I’ve seen quite a surprising amount of oposition to fiber specifically here on Lemmy. It comes completely unrelated to any vegan discussions. It’s kinda wierd, to be honest.


If you do get merged though, don’t tell Janeway.


Ok, that depends on definition I guess.


I’m wondering about that because at one point I did my share of similar statistics and I know this is something worth asking. There are statistic tools that are able to give this kind of answer and the results can be trustworthy if you have good data.


I wonder what percent of the autism observed can be explained by the combined factors of father’s age and wildfires.


Oh, so it doesn’t really disprove the manosphere woman expiration date… it’s more like both sexes are done around 30.


Thank you.


It’s not meant to be a realistic scenario. It’s satire.


It’s not really a thought experiment, though. It’s a hyperbole, a funny way to say women are afraid of the toxic masculinity types.
Yes, but the article says that certain combinations occur more often that if it was random. People with similar faces tend to have similar genes that are nor related to facial features.
