  • Man my heart breaks for Leclerc, he’s really giving it his absolute maximum.

    Ferrari strategy again acting like their car is the RB19 and is unbeatable, absolutely no risk, no imagination, just make up a plan before the race and execute it irrespective of what’s happening around them.

    This horse has been beaten into oblivion already, but I can’t believe that as dominant as they are, RBR continues to take risks. Maybe the car papers over some of the calls that might have gotten others in trouble, but they’re nimble and you can see them really working.

    The strategy call from Leclerc was just outrageous to have a chance of working. The fact that he had to think of it himself and he got so little support from the team is painful. Really what did they have to lose, you have to take chances if you’re behind.


  • Holy cow, is that a thing?!

    Some stuff in the US is pretty cool and money is nice and all, but then I have friends in senior positions within big tech who have only 12 days of paid time off which is real shitty.

    At least they can work remotely for a few days so they get a couple of decent holidays, but that just means they can never fully disconnect.

    And they can just use the healthcare system here when they’re back, which is nice for them but I’m sure not everyone has that luxury.


  • I’m not sure how they got to that conclusion, but we can kinda guess.

    The tongue is PACKED with blood vessels, so in case of any damage it can get tons of nutrients to fix itself. But this takes a very energy-intensive.

    So if the rest of the body would have the same density of blood vessels, we’d need drastically more energy to feed all of that.

    And I guess they’re asserting that all else being the same we wouldn’t be able to ingest or process sufficient food to keep that going.

    It’s a bit of a strange argument though, I’m going far outside of my physiology understanding, but you’d have to imagine that had we evolved such advanced healing capabilities, we’d have also evolved the means to feed them. And OP underestimates just how much food someone can eat. As someone dealing with an ED, I can tell you that you can easily triple your calorie intake (though whether that’s sufficient I wouldn’t be able to say…).

    All in I’d look forward to OP defending their assertion.
