41 adult men aged 18 to 26 (M = 20.17, s.d. = 2.16) recruited from a subject pool at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

So not representative of adults / the overall population, but still interesting.

Sexual desire was assessed as a composite score from three questions: (i) ‘Yesterday, how much did you have sexual thoughts?’ (ii) ‘Yesterday, how much did you have sexual fantasies?’ (iii) ‘Yesterday, how much sexual desire did you experience?’

First, a single item inquired about overall mate attraction efforts on each day: ‘How much effort did you put into attracting a possible romantic and/or sexual partner yesterday?’ (same 1–7 scale as above). Second, because such efforts may be highly dependent on social exposure to potential partners, we also targeted a binary measure of such exposure: ‘Yesterday, did you have a direct social interaction with anyone you found attractive as a potential romantic and/or sexual partner, but who was not your romantic or sexual partner at the time?’ (Yes/No).

Not a lot that's quantitative. But I guess I would expect to answer those questions differently over the course of a month.

I do think there's use in reputable sources enshrining obvious facts about bad things going on. Nice to be able to point to them and say "see, it definitely is bad!" when people want to pretend it's fine. (Or, "see, Exxon clearly knew decades ago," for the good that does us.)

Yeah, paid my non-refundable deposit (grr), saw him buy Twitter, got out of there, bought a Volvo. Nicer hardware, actually preferable highway self driving for me, infotainment does take several minutes to boot. Very glad not to be trusting Musk's word for my safety/privacy.

I would subscribe to his YouTube channel!

For 2023, the number of births with name River is 3084, which represents 0.168 percent of total male births in 2023.

Tundra is not in the top 1000 names for any year of birth beginning with 2020. Please enter another name.

Was looking them up at https://www.ssa.gov/cgi-bin/babyname.cgi but now "This website is temporarily unavailable," did everyone have the same idea and it's only resourced for 1qps?

I got a little floss holder, it has drastically changed my willingness to floss. (I think it's "E-Z Floss".) I wish any dentist had ever recommended that.

But thanks for the info about implants, I didn't know that process at all. My grandfather used to say he wished he'd just gotten dentures.

https://sh.itjust.works/c/desire_paths Thanks!

And there's a whole community for them! Not sure how to link to it though.

Back to building with stone, metal, and wood.

Nice! Direct link. The Atlantic's crossword was outpacing my mini-crossword abilities/patience.

I wish them well, I would like to see more unions in tech.

OK so yay disability rights, but makes me wonder how $50M compares to government bailout for airlines.

Those stock agreements, similar to options, this week are worth about $260 million, or less than 1 percent of the $37 billion the U.S. government gave 10 major passenger airlines last year to help pay their workers, according to a Washington Post analysis of Treasury Department data. Subsequent agreements taxpayers received as airlines got another $13 billion this year are, as of now, useless, although their value would rise if stock prices climb.

From the Washington Post. So, not much in comparison.

Ugh, yep!

Though in this case I guess there's the benefit of engraved numbers providing accessibility.

How are fire stations funded in Germany?

Seems cool!

Does it handle sharing a task list between people? Or syncing between multiple clients / handling concurrent edits?

I see the manual says keyboard commands are the main way to control it. Does it work in mobile?

Looks like you're putting lots of work into it, thanks for sharing.

Norris Young, a passenger on the train, told NBC Philadelphia the train hit a “gigantic tree.” “There was a tree on the track, I don’t know if it fell on the track or if it was just laying on the track,” Young said.

So, train still on the track.

Do you know any climate tech companies with unions?

And then vote for Ranked Choice Voting (which may not be the ideal but is a paradigm shift improvement from First Past the Post).

Is there a self hosted OpenTelemetry consumer?

No mention of reparations as part of this apology.

Although the community of Angoon received a $90,000 settlement from the Department of the Interior in 1973, it has long sought a formal apology.

Mentioning that previous amount just highlights that they aren't doing more / something significant.

I would count that, yes.
