a lot of guys who worked on the soviet space program were convinced that tereshkova lost her shit during vostok 6 and that was why they didn't fly another woman for 20 years. nothing's ever been firmly settled one way or the other and i doubt it ever will be, but it's a matter of fact that she violated procedure to eat food from a nearby farm after landing, possibly to cover up how she hadn't been eating while in orbit.

With few exceptions academia wholeheartedly refuses to talk about this subject and racial supremacists aren't exactly objective. Obviously we can be diverse in physical size and appearance. I'm more interested in IQ and temperament which have been proven to be at least partly influenced by genes.

>So you see that wolf subspecies have been defined without breeding isolation.
No?

>Or do you really think Quebec wolves don't mate with other wolves two miles away because those are from Ontario ?
Subspecies can make hybrids where they come into contact with one another. The map shows geographic isolation which implies breeding isolation. Whether the map is accurate is a separate matter of discussion. Wolf taxonomics are in a terrible shape right now, so I would be surprised if it were.

Anyway, ultimately the lines between subspecies without absolute breeding isolation will be blurry, even more than the lines between the various taxonomic ranks above species. Taxonomics is an evolving field and a lot of junk is still floating about in current records.

Also stuff like lines between species and breeding isolation don't even work for species that don't reproduce sexually or all the nonsense that goes on with plants.

If you define substantial as greater than between wolves and coyotes bearing in mind wolves and coyotes are incredibly closely related.

I'm not really sure what you're trying to say here. Substantial relative what? They're the same subspecies.
>>
>>16157009
Well
Why are all humans considered the same when there is a greater genetic difference by what looks like a factor of ten in various relatively closely related animals

Which one is the best textbook to learn physics from as a beginner?
4 replies omitted. Click here to view.
>>
Feynman, definitely
>>
>>16155162
Feynman is only good after you've already learned the subject. I think University Physics is good. You don't need to spend too much time on it before you learn classical mechanics from Taylor, followed by quantum mechanics from Mcintyre and electromagnetism from Griffiths.

It's actually most important that you learn calculus and linear algebra. I liked Spivak's proof based calculus books but honestly you only really need Stewart's calculus for physics. On the other hand I highly recommend learning linear algebra with proofs from Axler or Friedberg, this will help you with quantum mechanics.

Which hypnotic medications causes sleep walking? I've had an anon on /fit/ tell me that all of them do. Ambien will definitely make you sleep walk (and do batshit insane shit while doing so), and lunesta will also make you sleep walk. A lot of unrelated sleep medications will also apparently make you sleep walk, like belsomra; although I find this highly unlikely. GHB is known for literally knocking people out. People will literally pass out in the middle of standing and just fucking drop if they take enough of it. There's a reason why it's such a popular date rape drug. I find it unlikely that this hypnotic would cause anyone to sleep walk. It essentially turns you into a stone at a high enough dose (3.5 ml or higher).
>>
>>16155106
I used to room with a chick in college that would take Ambien and do all kinds of fucked up shit and not remember it. She would cook and leave the burner on, drive places, and she sucked my cock more than a few times while apparently dead ass asleep. I finally had to move out because I was afraid that she would burn the fucking house down on an Ambien zombie adventure while I was sleeping, blowjobs or no.

Cherry blossoms bloom in Tokyo, 15 days later than last year, 5 days later than average

https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/03/29/japan/society/cherry-blossoms-bloom-tokyo/

Cherry blossoms finally burst into bloom in Tokyo on Friday after heavy rain in the morning, marking the latest blooming in over a decade.
The declaration of the blooming made by the Meteorological Agency came 15 days later than last year and five days later than in an average year. Private forecasters had also expected this year's bloom to come much earlier.

Friday’s blooming is the latest in Tokyo since 2012, when cherry blossoms were declared to have blossomed on March 31, according to the agency.

Cherry blossom forecasting is big business in Japan. As early as in January, companies start to issue forecasts for when cherry blossoms will first bloom and reach their peak.

The weather agency, which began forecasting the annual bloom in 1955, sets a government standard for observing cherry blossom trees. For consistency, the meteorological agency only uses data gathered from the Somei-Yoshino variety, which produces pale pink blossoms.

Background: Symptoms of primary HIV infection, including fever, rash, and headache, are nonspecific and are often described as flu-like. COVID-19 vaccination side effects, such as fever, which occur in up to 10% of people following COVID-19 vaccination, can make the diagnosis of acute HIV infection even more challenging.

Case presentation: A 26-year-old man presented with fever and headache following COVID-19 vaccination. The symptoms were initially thought to be vaccine side effects. A diagnostic workup was conducted due to persisting fever and headache > 72 h following vaccination, and he was diagnosed with Fiebig stage II acute HIV infection, 3 weeks after having unprotected anal intercourse with another man.

Conclusion: Thorough anamnesis is key to estimating the individual risk of primary HIV infection, in patients presenting with flu-like symptoms. Early diagnosis and initiation of antiretroviral therapy is associated with better prognosis and limits transmission of the disease.
