That WHO study is highly problematic. It has some fairly serious methodological flaws. It’s been disputed by the FDA. It is biased due to the panel comprising:
eight WHO panelists involved with assessing safe levels of aspartame consumption who are beverage industry consultants who currently or previously worked with the alleged Coke front group, International Life Sciences Institute (Ilsi).
Personally, I find all the other eschatological possibilities much more disturbing. The heaven/hell dichotomy is unnerving on a lot of obvious levels. Reincarnation seems fraught with neverending suffering. And the idea of becoming a “ghost” or a spirit, forever consigned to haunt some old place is as terrible as it is ridiculous.
I’m looking forward to my hard earned non-existence, thank you very much.
Not on a “per calorie” basis they aren’t. And I’m not really sure by what other metric you can compare them. But look at how many calories of broccoli $3 gets you compared to potato chips. Then you have to add in the time of preparation.
Additionally, many impoverished people tend to live in “food deserts”, areas without grocery stores, but many fast Food locations.
The deck is definitely stacked against the impoverished.
Do not try and bend the spoon, that’s impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth… there is no spoon. Then you’ll see that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself.
There have been three accidents related to nuclear power generation, Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukashima. There were a total of 33 deaths attributed to those three incidents (32 from Chernobyl and 1 from Fukashima.)
There are 58 deaths per terawatt-hour attributed to coal alone, mostly due to air pollution.
I’d say that nuclear power is very close to completely harmless in comparison. Certainly in contrast to its perception among the general public.
Thank you! I thought I was going insane. And thanks for the workaround.
I’ll be a lot more willing to trust them when they have completely released their code base as open source. They said they’re going to, but so far have only released the code base for their mobile apps.
After all the crap with Last Pass I’m not trusting my password vault to anyone not willing to submit to security audits.
