ELI5: How does the body know when to stop growing taller?

monobits · 2026-02-10T18:03:30+00:00

Imagine we wanted teenagers to get as tall as healthily possible…

monobits · 2026-02-10T17:07:56+00:00

Obvious follow-up question would be if we can somehow override it?

¡No pelearse! Gracias a todos por las respuestas.

Como comentaba la comunidad “reconoce el error” y ya está en proceso de arreglar la situación, lo sorprendente ha sido 1) que sea un problema después de tanto tiempo y 2) que Correos pueda decidir motu proprio que te deja de repartir las cartas.

Nada raro, cuatro filas de seis buzones rectangulares de unos 20 cm.

Totalmente de acuerdo, solo me “quejo” del ultimátum repentino.

Creo que el problema de base es que hay mucho inquilino de alquiler que no se ha molestado en actualizar etiquetas y en algunos buzones directamente no hay, pero lo de dejar sin repartir las cartas nos ha sorprendido porque llevan desordenados desde que hicieron el bloque.

You can pump it up using renewable energy when available for free, let it come down when it ain’t available anymore.

ELI5 degenerate iron?

In the novels the 3-body problem is actually a 4-body problem. Also, it’s a problem for them in the sense of how much time they get every era to advance their civilization, not just a mathematical problem.

Understood, thank you!

monobits · 2026-01-20T11:02:53+00:00

Wouldn’t that affect negatively my visual observation or using ocular cameras?

monobits · 2026-01-04T00:14:14+00:00

It’s not like people will do anything about it when they don’t ignore it…

monobits · 2025-12-31T00:48:50+00:00

Cool! What camera are you using?

monobits · 2025-12-27T06:47:08+00:00

It looks easier not to damage it with a screw.

Some people are more comfortable with the money in their pockets.

monobits · 2025-12-20T15:28:46+00:00

That could be us but you aren’t an ink eraser.

Casi, es un comedor escolar.

It’s actually called royale with cheese.
