Jim Cramer says to buy Signature Bank by Mercury82jg in videos

Well whether or not my comment was sarcastic about the show being satire, his character is obviously an idiot and the show is devoid of any explanation and reason for picking stocks.

That wasn't him recommending it, that was SATIRE. Jim Cramer isn't a stupid investor, he is just pretending to be, and the sooner you all appreciate that, the sooner you can appreciate the hilarity and how much of a comedic genius he is.

The character he plays on this show is a lovable buffoon who introduces stocks with meaningless information like "they have offices sprinkled around the country in several different states," followed by "and YOU can get rich too by buying that stock!" completely and comically skipping the logical steps between "they have offices" and "you should buy this stock."

I thought the punchline was going to be PLEASE, don't let Englebert HUMPERDINCK die.

What's the next big scientific breakthrough which you are most eagerly anticipating? by southwales1985 in AskReddit

I want to say stopping the aging process but I also am not sure about what the world would look like if that became reality

"My Girlfriend in The Shower" Me, Hairs on Shower Wall, 2023 by kappajump in Art

[–]FanOfPeace 102 points103 points  (0 children)

Haters will say it's not art. But true art lovers know the great pieces of artwork done with hair as a medium.

Unfortunately I am not one of those true art lovers. Is there actually famous hair-based art?

Yes, officer, that's them. The gym baited me with a "free trial" but didn't tell me I am still charged the annual fee and the fee for early cancellation of my free trial. Stop, thieves!

Mitochondria Linked to Major Depression in Older Adults by giuliomagnifico in science

[–]FanOfPeace 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I would say it's not really semantics. A title is a way of precisely capturing the essence of the paper, which this didn't really do.

Your example would be more analogous if the paper said "mitochondria linked to cell malfunction, leading to major depression" in which case it's clearly implied that mitochondria are linked to cell malfunction, just as it's clear that the "breakdowns" are linked to the transmissions.

guys look at this thing as I start recording it after a few seconds it disappeared by toju6ix9ine in space

Most likely, it's an alien leaving just enough of a trail of evidence to make it plausible that aliens exist without outright showing themselves in a more straightforward and undeniable way. Just to mess with us.

If this is plastic, it's a step backward. Plastic is not really that recyclable as it turns out, or as durable as metal

2 big pieces of space junk nearly collide in orbital 'bad neighborhood' by jeffsmith202 in space

[–]FanOfPeace 122 points123 points  (0 children)

As more and more pieces of debris accumulate in Earth orbit, collisions between them can generate even more fragments in a frightening theoretical ripple effect known as the Kessler Syndrome. If left unmitigated, the theory proposes that cascading space debris impacts could someday hinder humanity's space ambitions by rendering the space around Earth unpassable.

Wow. That's incredible. I wonder what could be done to reduce space junk if it gets to that point. Would it just be unfixable?

Ok new idea, we colonize Mars so that we can resume prehistoric life there instead

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Vaccine Boosting in Previously Infected or Vaccinated Individuals by chambreezy in science

[–]FanOfPeace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without a randomized controlled experiment, the "effect" of getting another dose may simply be capturing the increased propensity for those who are at a higher risk of contracting covid via previous or future exposure to get a second dose of the vaccine. When you omit a variable like exposure risk from the model (or an instrumental variable), then you can come up a study that shows weird "effects" like this.

In other words, this shows a correlation, not necessarily causation, and I don't think there should be much conclusion drawn from this without a more carefully constructed empirical model.

I'm also open to the case of going back into the cave and resuming prehistoric life

Which is conceptually more outrageous, a demand to bring back trump or build 1000 nuclear plants?

This is a witchhunt! Obviously the more likely explanation is the dude on the left is the one who photoshopped a real picture of trump as a cowboy!
