Yeah, in a similar vein, it could also potentially be due to differing standards for how causes of death are assigned.

Someone could have congestive heart failure leading to pneumonia that actually kills them, and one country might consider that cardiovascular while another does not.

There’s about a million diseases that dont actually kill you, they just lead to something else killing you. AIDS, for example.

This is a good video on it. Around 12:30 specifically goes over the old British man version.

You ever hear a posh British man from the early-mid 1900’s talk? The US valley-girl vocal fry has nothing on CS Lewis.

Finnish is probably the most deep-fried language, though.

Didn’t realize that! I just unchecked some of the things I don’t care as much about. Guess I could have just slid them down the priority list.

after every statistical review over the last hundred years of reviews of statistical data, your claims do not bare out.

Can you link one of many statistical reviews that you are mentioning?

Is that like a fork of StreetComplete (or the other way around)? My problem with street complete is that it decides priorities for you in terms of what info to ask you for. Like I dont care much about reporting road surfaces and lane lines, but I’d really like to contribute to mapping of hiking/biking trails, and things like water sources. I know you can do that kind of thing via web interfaces, but I like the way street complete makes it easy in an app.

Yes, but there is incredibly strong evidence that mask wearing does reduce transmission rates. I haven’t looked (so definitely correct me if I’m wrong), but I suspect that lid closing likely does not have strong evidence for decreased transmission.

One factor that I think likely weighs heavily into this is that public toilets, where you could be exposed to particles from a stranger dont have lids usually, and they have a much more violent flush, while home toilets are mostly just used by your own household.

I’ve made american cheese out of parmigiano reggiano. Technically, it’s not just cheese and sodium citrate; you also need extra water depending on how dry the cheese is. It’s a good way to add flavor because you can use stock, or beer, or mountain dew, or whatever.

It makes sense that UV is only s small % of the energy from the sun, so sunscreen would only be responsible for a small change in heating.

Looks like some can inhibit sweating, too, which could be a double whammy.

That’s the problem with sunscreen, too.

I’ve never made paneer, but I have made a lot of ricotta (well, this type of ricotta, there’s also leftover whey ricotta, which I haven’t made). I had no clue paneer was basically just pressed ricotta.

Do you ever salt it, or is that just not common with paneer?

My trouble is always ending up with too much leftover whey. Yeah, you can use it in bread, but unless you are baking like 4 kg of bread, you won’t use it all. I’ve used it in soup, too.

It seems like (at least according to wikipedia) true immigration to Poland is tiny (~10,000 per year ). Poland allows a huge amount of temporary workers, though. Germany and Czechia, for example, have roughly 10x the amount of immigration per 1000 people.

I also just realized there’s no definition of ethnic diversity on this picture

Definitely important. It’s all a social construct anyway. Its like any kind of taxonomy where you have lumping and splitting of groups. A country could choose to group a bunch of related groups for nationalistic purposes, or they could chose to create in-groups and outgroups.

I suspect there’s little systemic racism in Poland

I would suspect there’s a lot of systemic racism, but more focused on “holding the line” of immigration rather than attacking the existing minority groups.

It’s more about saving width close to the ground. It doesnt matter on all trails, obviously, but a single-track through a shrubby/grassy area or a trail that’s deeply rutted will be a big pain if you have wide panniers.

I’m not exactly sure what you gain with a seat post bag vs just a bag on the top of a rear rack, though. I guess it is lighter.

According to the one i just had to replace, combo carbon monoxide detectors need to be replaced. I don’t know how the carbon monoxide part works, but i wonder if it’s a reagent or something.

Balancing a door in a frame is annoying, but you can actually buy prehung doors. You still have to get it level/square in the roughed out space, but it eliminates the worst part which is getting the door right within the frame.

A string of small magnets generally works pretty well. They stick to the nail/screw heads fixing the lath to the studs, and then you can draw a line.

I’ve cooked a lot of steaks and fish by pouring the correct temperature of water into a cooler and dropping vacuum sealed bags in. Basically a poor man’s sous vide bath.

That only really works up to a certain temperature, though, so you probably couldnt do boiling hot.

Lol, I did the exact same thing. I intentionally destroyed everyone with a housing shortage to make it no fun.

My guess is that they are wealthy enough/actually receive good insurance coverage, that without the gofundme, they would still be able to afford it just fine. I think they created the gofundme just because they knew it would make some money.
