“Although the human germline mutation rate is higher than that in any other well-studied species, the rate is not exceptional once the effective genome size and effective population size are taken into consideration.”
A rural Colorado county courthouse beefed up security Friday after threats were made against staff and a judge who sentenced former county clerk Tina Peters to nearly nine years behind bars and admonished her for her role in a data breach scheme catalyzed by the lie that the 2020 election was...
I love teasing the rage baited mouth breathers at work that they will, in fact, be replaced as soon as we get some more immigrants. If they comb their hair just right no one will notice.
They don't get that no one is getting replaced, no matter how dumb they are.
I wholeheartedly agree with the OP- I just want to add another wrinkle…
Back in the 80s, I remember reading an essay describing that as climate issues build, we would see a rise in far right wing politics. Nationalist backlashes against mitigation, movement of people, coupled with the rage and...
Interesting developments in the “free speech” category
They are At it again
Everyone agrees that a society where all points of view are expressed is ideal, but to be an “absolutist” where weaponized speech is used to disrupt and divide for personal or political gain is of zero value to anyone

That's not it. Just one example here. If you google "racial discrimination" followed by "car loans" or "uni admission", "jobs" you'll see similar studies.
I invite Derec to read this as well and maybe do a 30 second search.
We can't have a conversation about DEI if one party doesn't believe...
It’s not yesteryear - it’s happening right now. Of this there is no debate. The data is very clear.
I really think that this is the piece of the puzzle you are missing
Hi Derec - I want to interject a point here - before you argue against DEI, It's important to know that hiring based on gender and race was already happening before these ideas came into place. There are mountains of data and many very good studies that show certain groups were hired at much...
A google search for "Russian propaganda in India" displays lots of interesting results
I only wish I could say there was no Russian propaganda in Canada
