This is why I have a nerd rant in my back pocket all the time about those gigantic whiskey ice cubes. They're sold as cooling your whiskey without diluting it, and that's kind of true in that it dilutes it more slowly, but by diluting it more slowly it also cools it more slowly, meaning the whiskey is warmer while you're drinking it. On top of that many whiskey experts suggest a splash of water in your whiskey to begin with.
The important thing here is that the heat of enthalpy of water/ice is huge compared to the heat capacity of either liquid water or ice. Ice cools by melting!

i'm sure i'm not the first to say it, but i think i'm going to go ahead and study oil painting for the next 50 years, so that the neural network in my head can create images just like this. if that doesn't work out i'll use photoshop to do the exact same thing. am i illegal?

in addition to the reasons other commenters mentioned for why they probably do die but you don’t see them, it seems important to note that wild birds probably are infected far less often than chickens because they aren’t packed beak-to-cloaca in cages with poor ventilation 24 hours per day.

Reply to App helps to significantly improve memory recall and could have applications for improving memory. Users of the app were able to recall more than 50% more details about everyday experiences that took place as many as six months earlier than if they had only recorded events and never replayed them. by Wagamaga
in the article it doesn't seem to mention any comparison made between HippoCamera versus just taking pictures and then occasionally looking back at them. like is it the app that does it or is it just revisiting memories? if i missed that in the article please let me know. i mean if this app basically makes Apple-style live pictures and reminds you to look at them via push notifications then ok it is an app that adds a little value, but if the recall is strengthened by occasional revisiting of memories then that should be what the paper is about.

tldr: it sucked in numerous ways, some of which illustrated the clear case for workers' rights, but rigid schedule and exercise can be good for depression

Well that’s fine, that’s a preference thing, but it’s just false advertising to claim it works like conventional ice in every way but better.
