I'm Scottish on my mother's side, and English on my father's side. I was born and brought up in England, but the family moved to Scotland to be nearer my mother's relatives, and I've lived in Scotland for the majority of my life. I'm about as accurately half English, half Scottish, as it is possible to be.
When I was young and healthy, I did the faggy windsurfing thing, with the tight fitting, neon coloured wetsuits. It is exciting and feels dangerous, but when it goes wrong and one falls, it is a fall into water and doesn't break anything.
You maybe have a year or two of physiotherapy ahead of you. Concentrate on swimming to rebuild strength and mobility. Then take up windsurfing. You can get your required ration of "feels dangerous" but not get injured again.
The basic trick is that at the end of each war, they redraw boundaries, getting it wrong, to create problems to kick off the next war. For example, at the end of the 1914-1918 war, Poland got created. And created large with a significant German population. Great way to get people riled up and help start WWII.
At the end of the White versus Red Russian Civil War that followed the 1917 revolution, the Bolsheviks create Ukraine as a region of the USSR. Come the collapse of the USSR in 1990, suddenly Ukraine is the biggest country in Europe. How did that happend? A bit of Poland, a bit of Hungary, lots of Russia. Really bad borders as though some-one was thinking "I like war, how can I tee up another one."
White people could start by noticing the badly drawn borders trick.
I was expecting this to be about water vapor being a lifting gas. With two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom, a water molecule weight 1+1+16 = 18. But for nitrogen the calculation is 14+14 = 28 and for oxygen 16+16 = 32.
To see the implications, picture a hot air balloon with the air heated to 200°C. If it were steam instead of air, the gas would weigh about half as much and the balloon would generate much more lift.
Now worry about humidity and wet bulb temperatures and whether people will die when the heat and humidity get too much. The neglected issue is the water vapor is lighter than air and tends to rise, so the feared problem of high humidity *at ground level* goes away, literally up into the sky.
I've read stuff about climate models being wrong because they ignore water vapor being a lifting gas. This strange article doesn't mention water vapor being a lifting gas, but the issue it discusses is humidity failing to increase like the models say it should, which is exactly what you expect to see if the models ignore that the water vapor is rising up and away from where humidity is being measured.

The big danger with hypoxia is that you don't realize that anything is wrong. You maybe get a bit giddy and silly and other people can notice, but from the inside it all feels normal ... then you fall unconscious, essentially without notice. See https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6474450/ or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjzhDiWFURI
Remember what it says on the airplane safety card: put your own oxygen mask on first.
The idea is that a parent might try to fit their child's oxygen mask first, and pass out himself. The naive and incorrect expectation is that if the parent tries to put on their child's mask first, and this is taking too long, then the parent will start suffering from respiratory distress that will force them to put on their own mask, before they return to putting on their child's mask. But respiratory distress is caused by the build up of carbon dioxide, not the lack of oxygen. With hypoxia the parent may fall unconscious, essentially without notice.
This danger is also present in chemical plants. The usual fatal industrial accident goes like this: there is a big tank that usually contains hydrocarbons. It is empty in the sense of having been drained for maintenance. It gets left for a while, maintenance is not urgent. The oxygen in the air combines with the hydrocarbon residue and gets used up. The maintenance worker goes into the tank, breathes the air, with is now mostly nitrogen, and passes out without realizing that anything is wrong. His safety buddy goofed off during training and doesn't realize what's up. He goes in to rescue his work mate. The second man also passes out without realizing that anything is wrong. They both die before they are found.
I'm old and have always been curious. It is a weird experience, seeing people tell stupid lies that contradict well known stories about how the world works and how to avoid being killed by it.
I'm puzzled by people who oppose helmet laws riding their motorbike without a helmet. I'm against helmet laws: we have too many laws, and a helmet law sets a precedent that lies to yet more laws. We need less collective decision making and more individual decision making. The fact that my individual decision would be to wear my helmet on my head doesn't change the need to repeal helmet *laws*.
"Edge" is traditional. From *Graph Theory: An Introductory Course* by Béla Bollobás
> A *graph* G is an ordered pair of disjoint sets (V, E) such that E is a subset of the set of unordered pairs of V. ... The set V is the set of *vertices* and E is the set of *edges*
There are two things to notice about that quote. First is the obvious point about the use of the word *edge* in a text book from 1979.
Second is the strange way that mathematicians write. They are careful to dodge saying more than they intend. Let me illustrate this with an example of a graph.
We might write V = {a, b, c} as the vertices of a graph with three vertices, a, b, and c. How many pairs of vertices are there? Nine. (a,a) (a,b) (a,c) (b,a) (b,b) ...
But the definition says *unordered* pairs. We throw out (a,a) and (b,b) We also consider (a,b) and (b,a) to name the same unordered pair. Not nine, but three unordered pairs: (a,b),(a,c),(b,c).
Also the definition says *subset*. For our example let us pick {(a,b),(b,c)}. We have an edge connecting a to b and a second edge connecting b to c, but we are missing the edge connecting a to c.
At this point one starts to notice the dodging. What is an edge? Somehow Béla Bollobás has avoided saying anything. We are clearly talking about a graph with three points, and vertex a connected to vertex b by an edge, but is an edge a line? A piece of string? The edge of a three dimensional polyhedron. Dodge, dodge, dodge. We just want to talk about which vertex is connected to which vertex, and calling the connection an edge fits in with English grammar and lets us write sentences that flow and look normal. We don't want an edge to mean anything more on top of that.
I smugly commend my own practice when posting a youtube video: I give a short description of the special merit that I found in the video.
Partly this is word-magic to ward off down votes. Some-one reads my pitch, watches the video that I have submitted, and dislikes it. Now what? If they feel that I have described it accurately, they will likely feel that they *were* forewarned. Then they will refrain from down voting because they were *not* click baited.
But I also think it adds value. There are too many videos to watch in the standard seventy year life, one must pick and choose. Write a short description with the intention of helping videos and eyeballs match up happily.
Reading all the way to the end, I reach this fascinating insight into the logic of capitialism
> We would look a lot like the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety for life insurers, which was funded by the industry and brought airbags and seatbelt to autos year ago.
Bastards sell you life insurance for a fancy price and then cheat you out of the pay out by getting the law changed :-) Worse than than, you stay alive, so you have to put up with them smirking about not paying out!
I think that most men can grasp that sexual liberation is win/lose negative sum, and a bad idea overall. But most men think that they will be one of the winners, so they look forward to it, and end up disappointed.
Where does the Christian Church fit in? They had a historic role of maintaining taboos around sex, and conducting special ritual to sacralize sex. Society could have families and children without having adultery and divorce. I think that it was basically unpopular, and could only survive 90% of men thinking that they were above average (and would be a winner in a win/lose negative sum game) as long as the myths maintained their power.
Once the power of the myths failed, men went along with sexual liberation and divorce. At first, rich businessmen got to fuck their dolly bird secretaries and enjoy serial polygamy because of the sexual attractiveness of money. But it all went downhill from there.
Korea is ethnically homogeneous, they haven't any immigrants. So they aren't in a breeding competition to avoid being out bred by the invaders. The article is darkly hinting that the USA is ethnically heterogeneous, with all its Mexicans and Dot Indians, and they are busy having large families as they compete to see who will take over from the whites.
I wondered if I found him long winded because I'm old and know too much. He demonstrates thermal expansion by using an aluminium rod, and blow torch, and a dial test indicator.
