    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[So yes, people in Italy are much happier. They are free. And not in a fake “Don’t tread on me” gun-humping way—but free to live, to breathe, to age, to vacation, to try a hobby, go out late with friends, raise kids without wondering if their next dental cleaning or ER visit will lead to homelessness.

Yes, America still has incredible people, resilient communities and deep wells of creativity. But til we get billionaire boots off our necks and build a government that once again serves us—none of us can reach our potential. Or happiness we deserve.

We’re currently headed in the opposite direction. Led by President Numbnuts and rich Heil-Hitler guy who built the two-toasters-bonked-looking exploding trucks. Hell, if we’re honest, the entire oligarch class and their Congressional concubines.

If we don’t fix this kneecapped republic of ours soon (and as we say at Blue Amp over and over, it STARTS by creating a free, non-corporate, independent media ecosystem), I’m gonna need to keep taking European vacations to remember what dignity feels like. And think heart-attack seriously about living there again soon.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Attwater and his colleagues have found that sets of three RNA letters – triplets – bind strongly enough to prevent the strands rezipping. Three is the sweet spot, he says, as longer sets of building blocks are likely to mispair. So, in the team’s system, an RNA enzyme in double-helix form is mixed with triplets.
The solution is made acidic and warmed to 80°C (176°F) to separate the helix, allowing the triplets to pair up. The solution is then made alkaline and cooled to -7°C (19°F). As the water freezes, the remaining liquid becomes highly concentrated and the RNA enzyme becomes active and joins up the triplets, forming a new strand.
So far, the researchers have only been able to replicate up to 30 letters of the 180-letter-long RNA enzyme, but they think that by improving the efficiency of the enzyme, they can achieve complete replication.]]></description>

More recently, during our lifetimes, the world has achieved an entirely unprecedented improvement. In a brief episode of human history, the global death rate of children declined from around 50% to 4%.

After millennia of suffering and failure, the progress against child mortality is, for me, one of the greatest achievements of humanity.

This is not an improvement that is only achieved by a few countries. The rate has declined in every single country in the world.]]></description>

Quite literally. It dominates your skin microbiome, where it seems to keep staph infections at bay.

The overlooked agent is a species of natural yeast, called Malassezia sympodialis – one of the most prevalent microorganisms on healthy human skin. New research suggests that as it cleans oil and fat from your body's exterior, the fungi can produce a fatty acid that stops the development and growth of a staph infection.

According to lab experiments, led by scientists at the University of Oregon (UO), M. sympodialis can antagonize Staphylococcus aureus bacteria through its acidic byproducts.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[IPCC scientists have known for years that the Paris Agreement targets couldn’t be met without taking large amounts of carbon out of the atmosphere—that is, removing what’s already in the air rather than simply preventing fresh emissions. It was the sort of thing everyone knew and nobody wanted to call attention to. With the Trump Shock, gigaton-scale carbon dioxide removal is moving from quietly-acknowledged-necessity to hair-on-fire-imperative.

Plenty of methods have been proposed to do this. Most of them probably won’t scale. But one of them could.

It’s called marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR). This may be the first time you’ve heard of it. But it won’t be the last.]]></description>

“Transit has profound effects on the daily lives of Chicagoans, whether they travel by bus, rail or car,” said CTA President Dorval R. Carter, Jr. “Investing in transit service supports equitable outcomes for Chicago’s diverse communities, spurring changes in activities, vehicle miles traveled and pollution reduction across the city’s neighborhoods.”  ]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Adults under age 50 have been developing breast cancer and colorectal cancer at increasingly higher rates over the last six decades, and alcohol use may be one factor driving the trend, according to a scientific report published on Wednesday.

The report, by the American Association for Cancer Research, highlights scientific breakthroughs that have led to new anticancer drugs and improved overall survival.

But the authors also described a troubling pattern: Even as cancer death rates have declined, the overall incidence of several cancers has been rising inexplicably, with an especially alarming increase among younger adults in cancers of the gastrointestinal system, like colorectal cancer.

The report estimates that 40 percent of all cancer cases are associated with modifiable risk factors. It recommends reducing alcohol consumption, along with making lifestyle changes such as avoiding tobacco, maintaining a healthy diet and weight, exercising, avoiding ultraviolet radiation and minimizing exposure to pollutants.]]></description>

Recognizing the difference between critique aimed to tear you down and guidance meant to build you up consumes a lot of internal resources.

So, as we navigate through our lives, let’s apply this Olympian mindset. Let’s be selective about the feedback we internalize and use it as a tool for personal and professional development. Let’s remember to separate what we do from who we are, ensuring that while we strive for excellence in our daily lives, we remain grounded in our inherent worth. This approach doesn’t just prepare us for the next competition or professional milestone; it equips us for the intricate, beautiful challenge of living.]]></description>

Instead, fame is likely to magnify all of your insecurities and exaggerate all of your fears. It’s like picking up a fire extinguisher for your pain that ends up being a canister of gasoline. 

If you think you have problems that fame will fix, I implore you to work on the inside first. At the very least, work on both in equal measure. I’ve found books like Awareness and Radical Acceptance to be helpful.

If you don’t, you will end up with sand slipping through your fingers, leaving you with the same feelings of emptiness. Only now, along with disappointment, you will have the new challenges described in this post.]]></description>

Pouring a staggering $61 million into efforts to overturn the law, they sought to drown out our voices with misleading campaigns and political maneuvers. Their deep pockets funded a barrage of advertisements, lobbyists, and deceptive rhetoric aimed at undermining the very protections that our communities won and desperately need.

But we refused to be silenced. Armed with determination and unwavering resolve, we mobilized grassroots movements, rallied community support, and engaged lawmakers to stand firm against industry pressure. Our collective advocacy turned the tide, demonstrating that people power can triumph over corporate interests. Despite the formidable opposition, SB 1137 stood strong, embodying our unwavering commitment to justice and public health.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[It’s high school graduation season. Time to cheer the teenage achievers (especially the overachievers) and send them off to campus adventures and incipient adulthood. This year, though, I want to talk about the other graduates. The ones without honor society stoles or academic medals or college plans. The ones who still don’t know what they could or should do, who taste a tinny dread when the band strikes up “Pomp and Circumstance.”

I’m talking about students who flailed academically, never discovered any particular talent, drifted unnoticed in the halls. The kids who got into trouble and now think of trouble as their natural habitat. The poor kids, the dwellers in volatile homes, the abusers of substances. The college rejects and even the high school dropouts.

If I could give all those kids a graduation gift, it would be this plain but important truth: Everything can still be fine. Not easy, necessarily, but fine. This is almost certainly true, no matter what seemingly hopeless mess they have made of their affairs or bleak vision they’ve developed of their own abilities and future. Virtually every American 18-year-old has more options and more time than they’ve been led to believe. A teenager’s biography (whether promising or ominous) should not be interpreted as dispositive proof of years to come.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[The shift of policymaking to the states is often justified on grounds of federalism and the belief that decisions should be left to the level of government closest to the people. But if conservatives genuinely believed in that principle, would they be agitating now for a national law to ban abortion? Would they be hoping that the Supreme Court continues to strike down state and local gun restrictions? Would they continue to support decisions by state legislatures to preempt local laws? What unites the right is not a principled belief in federalism or local control but a preference for making decisions at whatever level of government they dominate.

What also unites conservatives is a complete absence of any self-reflection about the impact of their policies on life and death in America. The futility thesis must be a great consolation to those who believe in it because otherwise they would have to confront the toll that their policies have taken. The balance of power in the states has been literally a life-and-death matter. Liberals and progressives should know that the policies they have struggled to enact have not been in vain.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Has everyone stopped drinking? It certainly feels that way. Recently, dozens of my former cocktailers-in-arms have leaped onto the wagon for insufferably sensible aims like preserving their marriages or their health—or at least for an extended annual reset in Dry January or Sober October. Celebrities once known for their debauchery, have repudiated booze, and the non­drinkers aren’t sitting at home moping. There are suddenly chic little alcohol-​free bars to go to, like Getaway in Greenpoint, Brooklyn; Gem Bar in Pitman, New Jersey; Sans Bar in Austin, Texas; the Virgin Mary, in Dublin (of all places). And there are apparently enough nonalcoholic wines and beers and spirits to make quitting seem like a reasonable proposition. Data company Nielsen claims that the low- and no-alcohol beverage sector has grown by 506 percent since 2015. ]]></description>

One effect of this mismatch is that there are a bunch of things that feel dangerous to us that aren't actually dangerous, leading us to be way too risk averse. Like:

- Asking someone out on a date
- Trying something new even though you'll suck at it at first
- Quitting your job to start a company or try a career in the arts
- Putting your real voice out there on controversial topics

For primates living in a small tribe, rejection, embarrassment, failure, and criticism posed actual material dangers. These things are not dangerous today, but our software hasn't been updated. So we miss out on living our best life, hiding in the 1-4 zone of the danger scale.  In a world of overly risk averse people, the epiphany that the 4-7 zone is actually a safe place to play is a superpower.]]></description>

Has this been a traumatic era? A time of polycrisis and the decline of democracy? Please. Today's problems are pinpricks compared to the 20th century. The Spanish Flu killed 50 million people globally—nearly 3% of the total population. During the Great Depression unemployment peaked at about 25% and wages fell by nearly half. In 1942 the world was down to nine democracies—and 80 million people had to die before democracy finally won the day. The Holocaust killed two-thirds of the Jews in Europe. The Cold War lasted 45 years and immiserated hundreds of millions of people worldwide.

Sure, we have problems. But even taken altogether they're just not that big.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[There’s a sign in Danielle Steel’s office that reads, “There are no miracles. There is only discipline.” It’s a dutiful message, and yet the sheer amount that Steel has accomplished in her five-decade career does seem like the stuff of dreams.

Let’s look at the numbers, shall we? As of 2023, the author has written 190 books, which have been translated into 43 languages. At time of writing, twenty-two of them have been adapted for television, and two of those adaptations have received Golden Globe nominations. Steel releases seven new novels a year, and she’s at work on five to six new titles at all times. In 1989 Steel was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for having a book on the New York Times best-seller list for the most consecutive weeks of any author — 381, to be exact. To pull it off, she works 20 to 22 hours a day. (A couple times a month, when she feels the crunch, she spends a full 24 hours at her desk.)]]></description>

Previously known as the Gallup-Purdue Index and now called the Strada-Gallup Alumni Survey, it has questioned about 100,000 American college graduates of all ages about their college experiences, looking for connections between how they spent their time in college and how fulfilled they say they are now.

The study has not found that attending a private college or a highly selective one foretells greater satisfaction. Instead, the game changers include establishing a deep connection with a mentor, taking on a sustained academic project and playing a significant part in a campus organization. What all of these reflect are engagement and commitment, which I’ve come to think of as overlapping muscles that college can and must be used to build. They’re part of an assertive rather than a passive disposition, and they’re key to professional success.]]></description>

And perhaps the greatest tragedy of all the drama around college admissions is the degree to which it obscures that transcendent truth.

Nothing that I’ve observed at Duke or that I’ve discovered in many years of reporting on higher education has impressed me more than how differently students approach college, with widely divergent benefits. There are students who greedily and gratefully sop up what their professors can teach them. I’ve watched them bloom. Others do the bare minimum, cementing habits that will haunt them going forward. I foresee their stagnation.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[When I was 12, I disappeared into my bedroom with a $40 folk guitar and a giant book of Beatle songs, with elementary, large-type “E-Z” chord diagrams to follow. I had no musical gift, as a series of failed music lessons had assured me — it was actually the teachers who assured me; the lessons were merely dull — and no real musical training. My fingers stung as I tried to press down on the strings without making them buzz, and my left hand ached as I tried, and for a long time failed, stretching it across the neck. Nonetheless, I worked my way through “Rain” (abbreviated to two chords) and “Love Me Do” (three) and finally “Yellow Submarine” (four chords, or was it five?) and discovered by myself the matchless thrill of homemade musical harmony.

No one asked me to do this, and surely no one was sorry the door was closed as I strummed and stumbled along after the nirvana of these simplified songs. But the sense of happiness I felt that week — genuine happiness, rooted in absorption in something outside myself — has stayed with me.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[The persistent underestimation of how much others enjoy our company is known as the liking gap, dubbed by Sandstrom and her colleagues in a 2018 paper. Through both short conversations and long ones, with both strangers and acquaintances, study participants consistently misjudged how much their conversation partners liked them. (Participants took surveys after each chat and reported that they liked their conversation partner much more than they perceived their conversation partner to have liked them.)

This mismatch of appreciation extends to other domains, such as writing thank-you notes, sending text messages, and gifting a cup of hot chocolate. “Being kind to other people, doing nice things for others — those are the activities that tend to improve our well-being,” says Amit Kumar, assistant professor of marketing and psychology at the University of Texas at Austin. “Folks have lots of opportunities for acting in these other-oriented ways that they don’t take advantage of. I think the interesting question then becomes, well, why don’t people act in ways that are likely to make them feel better?”]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Haskell is a game changer. A general purpose language; that's industry-ready, perfect for fast prototyping, and a research language. It enables developers to quickly and reliably produce high-assurance code; we haven't even mentioned the testing tools available. It gives you a way to cut short your time-to-market. Haskell's real superpower is when it's time to refactor. Between the compiler as your tireless pair programmer, and the type system guiding your hand, you can cut and rebuild as fiercely as you please, backed by powerful abstractions that you can learn once and reuse forever. Enabling you to be productive and write quality code from the start. Without sacrificing your need for performant code.]]></description>

The trauma and disruption of the last three years have prompted a lot of Americans to reevaluate their relationships to work, whether it’s restaurant servers tired of risking their safety for poverty-level wages or office workers quitting rather than giving up remote work. And part of that reevaluation is about the workweek, which many say is due for a reboot. After more than 60 British companies tested a four-day workweek for six months and 90 percent of the companies decided to continue the experiment, even US policymakers such as Bernie Sanders are calling for the change in American work culture.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Looking at Earth’s long history, we find that we would have been incapable of living on our planet for most of its existence. Anatomically modern humans emerged less than 400,000 years ago; we have been around for less than 0.01 per cent of the Earth’s story. The only reason we find Earth habitable now is because of the vast and diverse biosphere that has for hundreds of millions of years evolved with and shaped our planet into the home we know today. Our continued survival depends on the continuation of Earth’s present state without any nasty bumps along the way. We are complex lifeforms with complex needs. We are entirely dependent on other organisms for all our food and the very air we breathe. The collapse of Earth’s ecosystems is the collapse of our life-support systems. Replicating everything Earth offers us on another planet, on timescales of a few human lifespans, is simply impossible.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Cooks’ group provided the part we’d been missing all along — small water droplets — and showed that linking amino acids together within them turns out not to be hard at all.  They made a dilute solution of glycine or alanine in water.  After two hours, nothing had happened, of course.  But when they made fine spray out of those very same solutions, glycine-glycine (Gly-Gly) or alanine-alanine (Ala-Ala) dipeptides formed in easily detectable amounts in a matter of milliseconds.

Their first crack at making the droplets was with nano-electrospray ionization, or nESI.  Here we suck electrons out of a liquid (a dilute solution of glycine in water, in this case) by applying a strong voltage between the emitter and the detector.  The liquid takes on a net positive charge, so it’s literally pulled over to the negatively charged detector plate as a mist.]]></description>

    <link>https://www.wired.com/story/secret-to-being-lucky/</link>
    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Living by a doctrine of luck promotes at least five excellent things that have got to be good for your brain.

1. Active skepticism about “meritocracy.”

2. Recognition of the utter contingency of one’s own advantages. An act, if I may, of “checking your privilege.”

3. Appreciation for the spontaneity, serendipity, and unpredictability of the universe. Nicholas Rescher, the illustrious philosopher at the University of Pittsburgh, calls luck “the brilliant randomness of everyday life.”

4. A way to practice “gratitude” without doing calligraphy in $75 journals. All you have you do is say, every time it hits you that life is OK and could be otherwise, “What luck!”

5. A way to make more luck in your life.

Luck really is the best creed. It makes no truth claims, requires no messiahs or gurus. It’s not religious, partisan, or ideological. It doesn’t just allow for surprise; it’s nothing but surprise. It’s charming. It may even be the secular answer to grace, but it comes with laughs rather than piety.

When you get good at luck, you can even find a spot of luck in a heat wave or your team’s defeat. But don’t be a psychopath. Luck is not about looking on the bright side. It’s much more minor. It’s about just _being_ -- and observing that you happened to be one.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Charles Kernaghan, who with a single-minded passion and tireless energy exposed the prevalence of sweatshop-made goods in America’s toy sections, department stores and celebrity fashion lines, died on June 1 at his home in Manhattan. He was 74.

His sister, Maryellen Kernaghan, announced the death but did not provide a cause.

As the longtime director of a shoestring organization called the National Labor Committee, Mr. Kernaghan was among the first activists to show that the seemingly magical drop in prices for a wide range of consumer goods in the 1980s and ’90s was a result of American companies’ shift of production to developing countries, where workers often toiled in dangerous conditions for pennies an hour.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[I realize that to a large extent, “doomerism”, as the kids call it, is just self-expression. We just went through a massive pandemic that killed a million of us, we had an era of riots and coup attempts and random acts of terrorism, crime is high, inflation is eating away at people’s paychecks and savings, and there are rumblings of major war from overseas. It’s a stressful time, and on top of that we have a bitter political and cultural divide here at home. It makes sense that people feel a need to express their rage and despair, and histrionic Twitter threads are one way of doing that.

Nor do I want to deny that the country faces real risks. If WW3 starts, that’ll be a calamity. We could also have a civil war in 2024-5 over a disputed presidential election result. It’s even possible that inflation could spiral out of control and turn us into Venezuela.

But these things, while risks, are still tail risks. The overall trends don’t show any such collapse.]]></description>

If the flying spaghetti monster exists, it will exist on only one world. In the same way, we exist on only one world. We are the only humans in this universe. And if we consider what we have learned from the history of life on Earth, chances are that intelligent life is extremely rare. While intelligence is clearly an asset in the struggle for survival among species, it is not a purpose of evolution; evolution has no purpose. 

Until it becomes intelligent, life is happy just replicating. With intelligence, it will be unhappy just replicating. This, in a nutshell, is the essence of the human condition. ]]></description>

    <dc:creator>msszczep</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Steven Thrasher, the journalist, noted that a new wave of AIDS memorials is only now starting to show up, long after the start of that pandemic. COVID will similarly persist, as will the chance to reckon with its cost, and the opportunity to steel our society against similar threats. Right now, the U.S. is barreling toward the next pandemic, having failed to learn the lessons of the past two years, let alone the past century. But Wrigley-Field, the sociologist, told me that she draws inspiration from the big social movements of the past, where gains in equality that seemed impossible at first were eventually achieved. “We’re really bad judges of what is possible based on what we’re experiencing in a particular moment,” she said. “Nothing major that has mattered for health came quickly or easily.”]]></description>

In the early 1980s, Mr. Metcalfe said, when Mr. Boggs took the stage at a California computing conference, at the San Jose Convention Center, to discuss the future of networking, a rival technologist questioned the mathematical theory behind Ethernet, telling Mr. Boggs that it would never work with large numbers of machines.

His response was unequivocal. “Seems Ethernet does not work in theory,” he said, “only in practice.”]]></description>
