One shot and you’re protected from heart disease. Imagine that for cancer, dementia and aging

Moderate stress is associated with improved cognitive function.

The odds of having dementia at age 85 were close to 1 in 3 in the 80s; now they are 1 in 10.

I don’t think we have a great explanation: better cardiovascular health, diet, and education are often mentioned. Good news nonetheless.

In double-blind placebo-controlled trials, 'gluten-sensitive' people who *think* they're going to eat gluten have reactions.

But if they don't expect gluten, there's no reaction.

Expectancy has a bigger effect than actually eating gluten!

Socialist: "Nordic countries prove socialism works."

Economist: "They rank higher on economic freedom than the US."

Socialist: "But they have universal healthcare."

Economist: "Funded by 25% VAT taxes on the poor and 180% car taxes."

Socialist: "They're more equal."

Economist: "Sweden has more billionaires per capita than America."

Socialist: "That's not real socialism."

Economist: "Correct. Real socialism is Venezuela, where toilet paper costs $100."

Socialist: "That's different."

Economist: "Is it."

Incredibly interesting result here.

Combining rapamycin with exercise didn't help and may have even impaired exercise adaptations in older adults!

Reminds me of metformin (also once marketed as a "longevity drug"), which also blunts exercise adaptations in certain contexts.

.@BradStanfieldMD remortgaged his house to get this trial over the line, which would make anyone invested in getting a positive result: but they didn’t get one and, true to character, he tells it straight.

Disappointing, but science sometimes is:

[Dr Brad Stanfield @BradStanfieldMD]

Our Rapamycin & Exercise clinical trial has just been published!

The topline result?

Rapamycin didn't help. Instead, it may have made things worse.

Here's what we found 🧵

Crazy idea: Let's split a country in socialist and capitalist halves and check in on them in 75 years.

@mikkelickski De siste to årene har prisveksten på importvarer vært negativ. Inflasjonen har vært drevet av innenlandske forhold, herunder høy lønnsvekst.

Om ein hadde laga forside basert på innhaldet, skulle overskrifta vore «Varslar børsen opp 37% i løpet av neste 5,7 år, tilsvarande 5,7% annualisert, godt under historisk snitt, og berre 1,1% over dagens femårs-swaprente og på nivå med investement grade-obligasjons-yield» 🧸

The average adult height in China and the US is now roughly equal.

Many have not fully realized just how much China has grown—in this case, literally.

Exactly 25 years ago today, I scored my first — and only — professional goal.
Contrary to what I believed at the time, goalkeepers are not allowed to handle the ball in both penalty areas.
The goal was disallowed and I was sent off — still it earned me legendary status. 😉

Dessverre er det nok en lang vei til et mer demokratisk Iran.

[Iman Jalali @Stealx]

Khamenei is dead. Good.

But I have family in Iran. My dad is there right now. And I'm not celebrating yet. Here's why.

Iran built the most layered contingency plan on Earth for this exact moment. Four levels of succession for every key position. Pre-authorized military strikes. Regional commanders who don't need orders from Tehran to act.

As you read this, there is already a new Supreme Leader. We just don't know who.

This isn't Maduro. The government didn't get overthrown. The system absorbed the hit. That's what it was designed to do.

Every credible intel assessment says the same thing: a post-Khamenei Iran is more likely to get harder, not softer. More IRGC. More dangerous. Potentially worse for the Iranian people than Khamenei himself.

Don't breathe yet. There's a long way to go.
