@faygocytosis yeah it wasn’t exactly well controlled lol but we were just doing it to see what happened. we didn’t anything unusual. people have accidentally swam in bpa polluted streams before tho and given themselves like 5 cancers, but those exposures were from factories/high concentration.
@faygocytosis they are coated in bpa, but the risk of personal exposure is probably relatively low. i helped run a pilot study where we added a bunch of receipt paper to dishes with larval zebrafish and it basically did nothing to their development lol. you’d have to like, eat it every day.
left number is runs scored, right is the number of your ‘outs’ (‘wickets’ in cricket-speak) for the total ups (each team bats once a match). bottom number is number of overs (6 bowls/pitches) team batted through, this is a t20 match, so the usa finished their ups, india is up.
stick built or ‘5-over-1’ style apartment buildings are much much more fire prone than p much any alternative, especially during the construction phase. they’ve already been outlawed in NJ for this reason.
There seems to be a high incidence of fires during the construction phase for housing. Are buildings under construction just really prone to fire or really prone to arson?
my friend’s dad was a handyman who unfortunately died super young. one time my mom asked how he knew how to fix everything and he said ‘i read the instructions’. some of the best life advice ive ever gotten.
the average human can't follow instructions without help. did a treetop adventure park recently, was in a group learning the safety system, and the instructor was amazed I followed the *clearly printed, colour-coded instructions* about which thing to clip where without her input
‘safer’ in this case also usually means bigger, so yr forcing everyone else on the road to also drive a similarly large vehicle to compensate for the immense weight. all of this means impact forces are significantly higher in crashes, even if they are dispersed more effectively.
the same could be said for pretty much any ‘classic’ american car, yet those are easy to register. it’s also interesting that these could be ubiquitous in say, japan, and yet their traffic fatality rate is an order of magnitude less than the US. the hierarchy of controls matters
Not to be that guy but don’t Kei trucks have abysmal crash test ratings? Like some of these small utility trucks don’t come stock with airbags, if you hit a telephone pole going 45 you insta-die
us auto lobby has successfully conducted regulatory capture to the point where p much all questions of ‘safety’ are left to the consumer. the road space can’t be made safer, you can only ‘choose’ to buy a ‘safer’ car, which also means a more expensive car.
didn’t even have to read the actual article to guess alito has a beach house in LBI where he indulges in flag psychosis. that is maybe the most italian-american-coded thing a person could do.
