IMO it’s a lot like garlic in that smells amazing when you’re hungry and about to eat it but kind of disgusting to smell outside of that context.

I guess I have a maybe above average sense of smell/taste, or perhaps just more honed from cooking and tasting coffee and spirits for their tasting notes and such.

it was a cohort study, they had over 200k participants who filled out the study form, so even through their was a low effect size the confidence can be quite high.

Lots of kids wanting to hide stuff from their parents and cheating partners will love this feature. If you’re a journalist, activist or similar I wouldn’t trust it

Have you actually read my first comment? Who said anything about prioritization? The only thing I’m arguing is that outside of the political theater and political tribalism that causes all politicians to act and vote for things that aren’t aligned with their own beliefs, that Manchin agrees more with republicans than your average Democrat.

You’re reading a lot into my comments, but not disputing any actual points.

Agreeing with is not the same as voting or publicly campaigning for. These are all things that happen within the political theater, where of course it’s hyper divided.

If you had a conversation with Manchin or many a Republican, you’d most likely find they agreed on most things, but since they’re both bound by playing a political game the outcomes are vastly different.

IMO the difference between Manchin and MOST GOP Congress members is that since he’s wearing a blue tie, he’s allowed to do things that are commonly believed, but against the GOP groupthink. Outside of the “freedom” caucus and the political stunts and cultural war red herrings, I’d reckon Manchin agrees with more Republicans than Democrats.

Other than abuse and right wing extremism, I’m also worried about the social impacts of this. Schools are where we meet people different from our parents, start to learn how to navigate communities and build relationships with our peers.

While I know of parents and children who’ve had great home schooling experiences, it’s A LOT of work on the parents not only from q teaching/academic role, but from making sure kids are socialized enough to support their emotional growth.

Taking your kids to church on Sundays and the library on Wednesdays is not enough for them to build strong relationships and learn and grow into well adjusted adults.

Didn’t it come out that the paper was sent to preprint without consent of all the authors? If we want to steelman their case, it could be that they’re still finishing up documenting and studying some dependent variables for the recreation process.
