Is there anything you can do after ingesting harmful bacteria? We ate some enoki mushrooms for dinner and on that very same day there was CDC recall due to listeria. FML


You could make it go through faster with some laxative before it gets fully digested. Probably not the solution you are looking for

The actual advice here should be: go to the emergency room. Or the earlier advice of phoning the CDC first and asking them what to do. Don't just take laxatives, which seem like speeding it out of the wrong orifice anyway: an emetic would be the better option. But medics in the emergency room can no doubt make better decisions than the internet!


why would you go to the emergency room with no symptoms and no assurances that anything you ate was even infected?
The unrealistic sound of these propositions is indicative, not of their utopian character, but of the strength of the forces which prevent their realization.

Yeah. You should call a hotline or something, though. They should have the information regarding how to proceed.

Thanks for the advice everyone... after reading the CDC announcement more carefully it just says call healthcare provider if experiencing symptoms, so I guess we just wait and see if that happens. Says they usually start 1 to 4 weeks after ingestion.

I was looking for some non-obvious explanations why Italy's and Spain's, coronavirus death rates are so high and one of my first ideas was based on the memory of this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/comments/8vriuq/share_of_people_aged_2534_living_with_parents_in/

I remembered that lots of Italians live in multigenerational homes, and thought elders in the north might be safer than their southern peers because they're less exposed to mobile young people who should be more likely to catch the virus. A closer look at the map linked above shows my idea is weak because countries like Greece, Bulgaria and Poland are doing relatively fine.

During my research I stumbled onto this map:

https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/images/a/ac/Share_of_young_people_(aged_16-29_years)_living_with_their_parents,_2018_(%)-fig01.png

And it's this graph that brought me here to ask my stupid question. Why are young women more likely to move out of their homes than young men?

Men are children for a looooooooooong time (40 is where most of them become truly responsible). It takes them generally years more than women (a lot are deeply responsible already in childhood) to develop the same amount of responsibility.
Part of it is biological (innate desire to care for children yourself -- because you've grown a baby in your belly for 9 months).
Part of it is societal -- girls are supposed to be good mannered, tidy, ... because that's not lady-like. I guess it's more and more an obsolete way of thinking (gender roles in general), but these good ol' Judeo-Christian values will still persist for quite a while before they're completely wiped. The merit of certain Judeo-Christian values is a completely different discussion obviously.

Spontaneous ideas i have (without looking up any of the underlying data to verify them):

Maybe women tend to be the younger partner in romantic relationships, especially for the first major relationship? I think one of the classical reasons to move out is that you are marrying. If women marry at a younger age on average, that could be a factor.

If there is mandatory military service, that tends to delay the whole life of the man by 1-2 years, and thus might also delay having a large enough income to afford your own place.

Maybe men still pursue jobs which require more education on average? Once again, the longer you spend on education, the later you have enough income to afford your own place.

I know there's a citation needed here. Definitely fully anecdotal/train of thought.
But men are pigs and children 100% FACT.

I would check to see average age of women getting married compared to men. I would presume women marry at younger ages often to older men and perhaps people don't move out until they are married.


Age when getting your first child is probably getting more relevant over time. At least here at lot of people never marry any longer. No tax breaks for being married is probably a big reason.

Saw this tax service commercial and thought to myself "this has to be one of those things that can only exist in the US"



am I right? Anyone know another country that would have a service like tax preparation advertised in this way?

There is a gender gap in the EU of ~11% points for people who finish tertiary education (more women study) https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php/Gender_statistics#Education
Then there are sayings like, not all men are geniuses, but all geniuses are men, since women in general outperform men in educational tasks (I think there was an icelandic study somewhere). If you combine this with access to cheaper credits for students, a high rate of unemployment in the youth, a bias for poor parents (i.e. the majority) to favour their daughters when investing into their children https://www.jstor.org/stable/3598271?seq=1 ... and I could image young women are more willing to considered flat-sharing than young men, but I don't have a statistic for that.
Plus the things mentioned above of older men and younger women, I think you find your answer.

A couple of questions about remote smartphone hacking / SIM card cloning.

Let's say a smartphone is connected to both the internet and cellular data network (WIFI and 3G/4G/LTE)

(1) Would a hacker be able to use the device's connections to covertly infect the smartphone with malware (ex: insert malicious code/files/software/program targeting the phone/texting apps or device information) that reports back SIM card information to the hacker?

(2) Then use the information to create a clone of the SIM card that will function/pass/evade the cellular provider's security verification protocols?

(1) If there is a vulnerable application running on the smartphone or a flaw in the operating system known to the attacker, he may have an exploit to execute arbitrary code on the phone. Usually, it will be at application level, meaning it will be able to use the application's data or data available through the permissions set for that application.

One example would be the MP4 sent to Jeff Bezos phone to install a malware through a vulnerability in WhatsApp.

(although usually easier to get a user to install a malware than hacking into an existing app)

(2) From the system, you can retrieve public information from the sim card through the sim's toolkit. A pure clone of the simcard still cannot be done since the keys used to authenticate to the provider are protected by the card itself and cannot be accessed.
(attacks on a smartcard exist, but more of a lab job directly connecting to the card than a software hack)

Is Coronavirus a net positive or negative for the environment? On the one hand people are traveling (burning fuel) less, but on the other they started using all those single-use products like plastic gloves more.

So, my wife just brought home an energy drink called "Maximum G". And i got to wondering: What would change in a universe where the gravitational constant G is larger? I would like to have a strict no google discussion about this, if people are interested.

My thoughts so far: Probably nothing changes at the elemental level, as gravitational forces are neglectable there anyways. But (main sequence) stars of the same size should burn hotter and thus burn out quicker. Also, more black holes, because smaller stars can form a black hole now. I have no idea how that would influence other things, especially life.

What else would an increased gravitational constant change?
