Errr, hearing aids are significantly larger with standard hearing aid batteries being larger than airpods themselves,

No, they're not. My dad has hearing aids and they are about the same size as an airpod.

For reference, this is close to, but not the same as, what he has. This shows the size of the various airpod models. They are not "significantly larger" than a hearing aid, and in fact are nearly identical in size.

Like seriously that is an insanely ignorant example. Cheese also contains calcium so what excuse does chalk have for not being used as a sandwich topping?

Yes, your example is insanely ignorant. Cheese is a food. Chalk is not.

Comment I just stopped going to large venue music shows (Score 1) 31

I love music. My whole life has been playing in bands, going to see concerts and as a child of the 80s standing in long lines to get tickets or disapointment.

The prices of tickets is out of hand. The scalping is out of hand. So I just quit. I see local shows by local musicians or at venues in small towns. I don't care how much I like someone's music I'm not paying hundreds of dollars for the cheap seats to see them.

The fact that amino acids and other chemicals used by earth based biology can form fairly readily has been known since the Miller-Urey experiment in the 1950s, this isn't news. The problem is there's a big gap between biologically active chemicals and biology itself, specifically a molecule that can replicate, evolve will a surrounding framework of chemistry. We don't yet know if THAT can spontaniously evolve anywhere or needs to very particular conditions that happened to exist on earth after it formed.

This story has the wonderful title, Fidji Simo says Mark Zuckerberg gave her one piece of health advice years ago, and she wishes she had listened.

In short, she was so excited to have hit her dream job at the age of 40, that work-life balance never entered the picture. Now she's a multi-milionaire who will, probably, spend the rest of her life struggling to have something approaching a normal life.

I've never been canoeing before, but I imagine there must be just a few simple heuristics you have to remember... Yes, don't fall out, and don't hit rocks.
