Ya theres a very specific lingo. If she’s in environmental science I’d do all the water testing or whatever for chemicals, microbes. whenever they send stuff off to “the lab”, thats me!

haha! sorry bud, I gotta reject this one, send down another!
- Comment on Who is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and why is she in my toothpaste? 😡🤬😡 3 days ago:
lol, I guess its versatile. Red cells lyse fairly easily, if you just let them sit in water they’ll burst due to osmotic pressure (thats why we give people saline/salt water), this is just a really effective method of quickly bursting them I guess. The analyzers are pretty cool, when the dr orders a CBC/complete blood count its one instrument that measures hemoglobin, red cell indeces (red cell size, hemoglobin content, volume), platelets and a breakdown of your different white cell populations all within a few minutes. Blood is pretty cool, I’m not a vampire.

I’ve actually come across this one in hematology, its used as a reagent in some analyzers to lyse red cells to release hemoglobin for direct measurement. source: I’m a lab tech.

Again, its a spectrum. It depends on calorie density and types of fat, how you react to it. There are absolutely certain types that are straight up bad, some can be good.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Its flawed but a decent screener. Follow up with a blood test if you are concerned. BMI doesn’t distinguish between muscle/fat and some people can have a high BMI but be metabolically perfectly healthy-others not so much. Its a very wide spectrum that needs to be looked at on a case-by-case basis. Also fat tissue (adipose) is involved in much more than just energy storage, its quite active in inflammation, metabolism and disease processes. Source: I did my MSc on obesity and gut health. Bonus fun fact: theres no standard definition of “high fat diet”, many meta analyses are comparing wildly different diets to draw some pretty “interesting” conclusions!

I love the stuff. There are so many tools I use that I’d love at home, parafilm is one of them. The other is a hot plate/magnetic stir bar I’d use for soup/cooking.

I 100% agree, I’ve adblocked all my devices and refuse to be advertised to in general. I only commented this because I’m at my parent’s house watching cable with them and those are the only ads I’m ever exposed to.

Theres a difference between goofy and actually funny/smart. The goof stuff is just cringe and offputting.
- Comment on I am convinced the makers of those ads are on something strong and very illegal 3 weeks ago:
I miss funny ads. Everything is so sanitized and boring, bring the humour back! If you want my attention or business get creative! make me remember!

- Comment on Pedestrians Walking on Right or Left? 3 weeks ago:
I always assumed we follow school/driving rules, always stay on the right. I live in Toronto and I’ve noticed the sidewalks and bike lanes just devolve into a free-for-all. Or when a group of 5 all take up the entire sidewalk and theres no where for anyone to go.

Is this game fun? I’ve got ubisoft fatigue, is it just more of the same old stuff? I still think I’ll pick this up a year or so from now when its on sale for $40 or something.

I can’t remember the last time a movie came out that made me want to go see in theatres. Tickets are so expensive that I only want to go to one or two movies a year. Then with TV I find every show these days has “netflix syndrome” with lazy writing, exposition dumps, dummed down dialogue, I’m just not interested in what they have to offer most of the time.

- Comment on Microsoft's many Outlooks are confusing users and employees 2 months ago:
I use it for school. I’m in different groups and I need to use it for chat, file and image sharing on different projects and its an absolute nightmare trying to keep track of channels, I’d rather use literally any other software to accomplish this task. Most of us just jump on discord and use that.
