Is that an African bat or a European bat? And what about the coconut-trail, why is no-one talking about that?

Unlike you, who in no way has decided up front what you want to believe, and is perfectly open to evidence suggesting other explanations.
"If drywall isn't made for manufacturing or transport, how in the world does it end up in my Home Depot?"
You're mixing up "made for manufacturing" and "manufactured".
Of course it is manufactured, but problematic for manufacturing ready-made walls in a factory. As opposed to putting it up by hand.
What I'm wondering is where I can get hold of some of that "lightweight steel". Sounds like a wonderful material.
And yet people have flocked to Chrome. There is no rational explanation for this
Not looking hard enough.
There are other qualities than customising that matter to many, even if they might not to you.
For me the biggies are:
* Solid versions for all the platforms I use, including my android mobile
* Smooth replication of bookmarks and other settings between them all with no extra effort/config from me
* Brilliant developer features on desktop version
* No-effort sso with google mail, maps, docs, and keep, all of which I use extensively
I respect the criticisms against chrome, and Google in general, but for me the convenience and fit with my life trumps it all.
If your situation and/or priorities are different, that is fine.
"people are generally stupid"
People are generally not you.
Deal.
I realise that reading the entire first line of a summary may seem like an insurmountable hurdle, but were you to some day accomplish that monumental feat, you would find that it mentions production and transport, first even, right there starting at word no. 13.
And, yes, rotting food does contribute to warming too, because the methane produced is a much more potent greenhouse gas than the CO2 the carbon came from.
No wonder they have you working from home
Anthropomorphism would be talking about culture between companies.
Company culture means the culture between the people within the company. Any group of people interacting over time constitutes a culture. This is just simple fact.
As long as there are people working together, there will be a culture there. Cultures can evolve to become surprisingly different from other groups with similar makeup and/or purpose. Culture is affected by everything from formal policies, the behaviour and attitude of people with formal power, the behaviour and attitude of people with informal influence in the group, and just the general makeup and history of the group and all they take with them. It will often change over time, but has an inherent inertia or even state: the same group with the same formal rules but a different "start" could function quite differently.
Many, many people have experienced the culture being wildly different at different companies, and seen that it affects not just the quality of life for employees but also the performance the company. Many people have changed companies because of the culture. Many people have left a job they used to like because the culture changed. Try telling them all it doesn't exist.
You could get lucky and get a fine internal culture by chance, but companies that ignore the effects of culture and their power to shape it do so at their peril.
The only thing that companies are supposed to do is to make money.
Supposed by whom? God? The government? The owners? Shouldn't that be up to them, not you?
Meaning and purpouse do not exist in the external universe. They are artifacts of the mind. Consequentially, they are make little sense without specifying whose mind we are talking about. Which one you pick changes everything.
When I take up a position with a company, MY purpouse with the company is what matters to ME.
You're making an awful lot of assumptions about me. Especially for one interested in science.
Yes, it was the "any" part that I thought was wildly overshooting, exacerbated by the claim that this was well know fact.
I am fully aware og what hypnotism is.
I haven haven't been denying anything.
Keep your enemy-projections to yourself
With clever use of hypnosis you can take over manual control of any previously assumed-to-be reflexive response in a target subject
Any? Really? Source?
I thought this was already a well-known scientific fact
Whatever made you think that?
What is your point?

Wrong. Evolution happens when there is a difference in reproductive success.
Dying will definitely affect your reproductive success.
But it is far from the only factor.
But I agree: the assumption that the increase is due to hereditary factors is quite a leap.
How does it behave on the control group?
Don't have one, you say?
Then you don't have an experiment.
But just out of curiosity, does it behave the same way on your entire unbiased selection of vaccinated people?
What?
OK, did it at least behave differently when you did those things before the vaccine?
Aw, seriously, dude.
You suck at this.
No, these will replace the need for beaming in power via 5g, freeing up the network for use by phones or whatever. Proof will arrive in the form of increased 5g coverage.
we could let civilization collapse for the bottom 90-95%, leave the top 5 or 10% living in luxury and the problem would solve itself when 95% of the population goes back to the stone age.
You mean the republicans ARE actually working to fix global warming, just in their own special way?
