Anyone know if testosterone levels in men have a similar performance implications? If Semenya has testosterone levels of an average man, does that mean she theoretically has a performance advantage over men with below average testosterone levels? Or is it something more like having high-T levels gives her some boost…

You’ve got it backwards, stumbling upon troves of every day life of ordinary people is an anthropologist’s wet dream. When only extraordinary, important things are recorded, you only know about 0.1% of a society. The interesting meat, the 99.9% never important enough to note, is what humanity actually is.

No that’s why you buy a Bentley to park at each charge stop

I was expecting them to make it to game seven, then lose 6-0

Until the ball leaves the field the play is still alive, so all of the normal rules (like base running, in this case) still apply. The home run part of this is a bit of a red herring.

Race cars don’t have the same steering wheel range that normal cars do; a full turn lock-to-lock at most, and you’re not even using that whole range very often. So you don’t need the room to move your arms in big circles, and keeping the arm reach short is a lot more comfortable and precise.

I always start with the assumption that the Caps lose to the Pens

For a reasonable cross-section shape, the “running into the air” drag isn’t nearly as big of a deal as the drag caused by the wake you leave behind.

As fantastic as they are, the 500 is probably too small to really compete. It’s pretty much a dedicated fun car in a segment where its competitors all have usable amounts of space to put stuff in. Hot hatches are for those that need a practical car, but also want some spice in it.

There’s a whole set of sub-competitions going on in a bike race. The overall winner is of course the big one, but there are also guys that just specialize in winning specific stages, or aggregate awards like best climber or best sprinter. It’s entirely possible for someone to win an event overall without winning a…

How is this different from the old hidden messages folder? Since I didn’t delete anything from the old folder, I can see that the contents of the new are exactly the same as the old.

I’m fairly sure creamed honey is just honey that’s been whipped/aerated. I had a tub of the stuff for awhile, and it eventually reverted to plain-old liquid honey.

Well yeah, we’re not animals

We judge people not on their sex, gender identity, or cereal preference, but how far they can punt a football

Mass is (essentially) irrelevant in the case of impacting a non-moving body. It would matter if you hit something that can move in response to the impact, but in that case being in the heavier body will lessen your decelerative force.

Who’s your spirit musician? The band that can do no wrong for you. The songwriter who could drop trou and plop an objectively terrible piece of shit at your feet, and the worst you’d say is “it’s not my favorite work of theirs”.

What is odd is that we have no other photos of this thing. If it really skipped through multiple states, either on its way from California, or if it were an X-47B being sent from the east coast, to the boneyard in Tucson, you would think an avalanche of other photos of it would have shown up. The other alternative is…

Makes me wonder if there’s been trouble brewing behind the scenes between Sale/players and management, and this was just one-straw-too-many
