  • Farm work wasn’t all day for most of the year until it became industrialised. Plants and animals take a lot of time to grow, and can mostly be left alone while they do it. If one farmer is only producing enough food for fifty people, they end up with a lot of downtime, albeit with a few days a year that require all nighters. Only when machines and fertiliser become able to let one farmer support thousands of people does there start to be something to do all day every day, and that needs the Haber process, which was a 20th century development.


  • I’ve found this is really dependent on placement. If I put my libre a couple of centimeters away from the region I usually use, it’ll read low all night, but as long as I stick to the zone I’ve determined to be fine, it’ll agree with a blood test even if I’ve had pressure on it for ages. Also, the 3 is more forgiving than the 1 or 2 because it’s smaller than the older models, so affects how much the skin bends and squishes less.



  • You get both sizes of gametes with all kinds of bodies. It’s only the testes/ovaries that are reliably correlated with gamete size, and anything further away from their production than that has about the same chance of not being the style you’d expect as an atom has of not being hydrogen or helium, just like the original meme alludes to.
