RJM is chair of the Scientific Advisory Board for the European Hydration Institute. PW has received funding in the last 3 y from the European Hydration Institute for other hydration-related research. None of the other authors reported a conflict of interest related to the study.

Could not find much more information on this institute. It ran an introduction to a conference in a supplement to a trusted, peer-reviewed journal but supplements have a general reputation of being advertisements.

article links to a yahoo version of 2019 CNN which links to a 2016 study with a URL resulting in a redirect to the new standalone website for the journal now-declared-independence instead of a DOI I had to rescue from the archives which now links to the ScienceDirect hosting of the article instead: https://doi.org/10.3945/ajcn.115.114769 (Thankfully open (archive) access)

In summary, the present study describes a novel tool to enable the objective assessment of the effectiveness of beverages to maintain hydration status. The BHI is reproducible and the pattern of response for a range of commonly consumed beverages is consistent with what is known about the effects of their constituents on water balance.

better listen in

I'm not saying it's not covered; I'm saying the "progressive" flags emphasize it in a time when some are attempting to co-opt the rainbow to marginalize them.

once again, my only friend

huh, sauce? I've never heard of any of that.

it's actually a-i, one of the only three codes with a hyphen in it

aww thanks. these are great! (though obviously the one in the post seems better)

the "i tend to forget" image i guess you're referring to is actually also a screenshot. of a short walking simulator on roblox called "oobja". all i did was take a screenshot at a lucky time, carefully crop it, and run it through gif compression.

I think it's interesting that the capitalization of article titles is nearly as controversial as the Arab-Israeli conflict (another contentious topic).

well of course I'd like to stay and chew the fat

Also, what does this have to do with means testing?

What is the point you’re trying to make here?

If you don't include them then the cost is gonna be higher than $600 million. My point that it won't pay for itself and has to suck up funds that could've been used for infrastructure remains.

Yeah that's already factored in as savings and thus deducted from the costs:

The cost of eliminating fares from all city buses would likely be north of $700 million – an MTA analysis from 2022 put the cost for fiscal year 2026 at $778 million, Mamdani’s campaign said. A separate analysis on free local bus service from the city Independent Budget Office incorporated savings that fare-free bus rides would produce, including on fare enforcement and collection costs, totaling $33 million per year. They found the total cost would be $652 million.

I already deducted an extra $52 million for a good-looking number. Whatever the independent analysis didn't think of is not likely to go beyond this $52 million.

seems like a joke copycat of nicole

edit: profile looks like a troll

With the current significance of the movement represented by the "LGB Alliance" I don't think it's undue to stress the T.

As a matter of color I don't like the abrupt transition from pastel cyan to brown... but it's nice for what it means.

I like this Julia Feliz diagonal one much better: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:New_Pride_Flag_by_Julia_Feliz_2018.svg

idk it doesn't seem so jarring to me that way. Maybe because the absence of the bend avoids emphasizing the contact and thus contrast with the pastel cyan.
