  • When you hit retirement, so will literally everyone else. You want to hire a nurse to wipe your ass because you can't, there's a 25 year waiting list because everyone is old.

    Your one grandchild has 6 older people to take care of in addition to their one child (spouse exactly in the same position)

  • You could, but it would be a house with no indoor plumbing. My grandpa lived in one. Gotta shit in the outhouse.

    Houses got much bigger since then and the home ownership rate stayed at around 60% basically forever. If it was so easy, why didn't everyone do it?

  • The usage of the phone's CPU is usually around 1w, but could jump to 5-6w when boosting to solve a nasty challenge. At 20s per challenge, that's 0.03 watt hours. You need to see a thousand of these challenges to use up 0.03 kwh

    My last power bill was around 300 kwh or 10,000 more than what your phone would use on those thousand challenges. Or a million times more than what this 20s challenge would use.

  • The data showed that people who ate as little as one hot dog a day when it comes to processed meats had an 11% greater risk of type 2 diabetes and a 7% increased risk of colorectal cancer than those who didn’t eat any.

    Now do the data for Iberian ham. Isn't there a confounding factor of income? Or health-conciousness at least

  • Ranked choice still encourages strategic voting. Let's say you have Bernie running as third party and he's your favorite candidate in a ranked voting election.

    If you vote for him as #1 and enough people do this, he can potentially eliminate the Democrat candidate. Then when the Democrat votes are transferred to the remaining candidates, there might be enough people who don't like Bernie and transfer their votes to a Republican to make for the Republican winning.

    If you rate the Democrat #1 and Bernie #2 then the Democrat candidate might win outright. So voting for your favorite candidate might hurt your second choice
