AI Thread Summary
Looking up at a distance while studying for extended periods can be beneficial for eye health and comfort. Taking breaks every 30 minutes to focus on distant objects may help reduce eye strain and fatigue associated with prolonged near work. This practice is particularly relevant for individuals experiencing myopia, or nearsightedness, as it encourages the eyes to relax. Regular eye check-ups with an ophthalmologist are also recommended to monitor vision health and address any concerns related to nearsightedness.

Myopia is nearsightedness, it means you can see nearby objects well. Go see an opthamologist and get your eyes checked.

On Page 103 of A Troublesome Inheritance, Wade writes the following: "The regional nature of selection was first made evident in a genomewide scan undertaken by Jonathan Pritchard, a population geneticist at the...

Thread 'Fermentation using mixed legume and grain feedstock'

I use ethanol for cleaning glassware and resin 3D prints. The glassware is sometimes used for food. If possible, I'd prefer to only keep one grade of ethanol on hand. I've made sugar mash, but that is hardly the least expensive feedstock for ethanol. I had given some thought to using wheat flour, and for this I would need a source for amylase enzyme (relevant data, but not the core question). I am now considering animal feed that I have access to for 20 cents per pound. This is a...
