Several universities and organizations have labs dedicated to producing these kind of videos, but 12 years ago the BBC made a good documentary aimed at a general audience on how adenoviruses attack a human and how the body defends against it.
Nah based off this comment and your previous one, you're choosing to be bitter and critical. It's not the content of your argument but how you're saying it.
I guess it depends on where you draw the line on what is a humanoid.
The world we've built for ourselves is for humans. If you need a robot to flip a hotel room for the next guest it may not need real legs but its probably gonna be column shaped with some arms. That's humanoid to me.
Not trying to single out a hotel maid as low skilled, just trying to use an example of a common task in a very human environment
In this vein I've always thought it would be cool to see what kind of sports we could have in a zero gravity stadium in orbit. Something like the training facilities in Ender's game.
Maybe a sport like Quidditch could become a reality
I'm a millenial myself, and not a parent so parents please correct me. 4. Modern parenting is torture for children.
Up until the teenage years kids need to feel useful. They need to be able to help fix things, etc. They need to get into a little bit of trouble and get dinged up a bit.
Teenagers need a lot more freedom. Every ounce of their body is pushing them to distance themselves from their family, have sex and take risks. Instead parents insist on this "no drugs, no sex" policy. Of course both of those things can present major problems, which is why they should be discussed but not forbidden. Even sex ed today is maximizing fear and pushing waiting until marriage which is just as bad.
As the parent points out, living in a car dependent city with nowhere to go and no way to get there leaves you no choice but to stay home. Staying home means tv, internet and video games. Parents are out on a holy war against that as well.
Are you suffocating yet? Now remember that in addition to everything above your texts, location, browsing history, grades, etc. are all being tracked and reported for your parents to further control you. Could you imagine if you were treated like this as an adult. You'd have a civil war.
Let them fuck. Let them work. Let them do drugs. Let them make mistakes for christ sake. All of these things have consequences and are worth keeping in mind. But coddling them until 18 and expecting them to be functional is like raising an elephant from birth isolated until adulthood then releasing them to the african savannah. They'll be dead before sunset.

My impression is that there is far less of this now than there was thirty years ago or fifty years ago.
Living in Arizona, this is always a surprising fact to remember since the electric bill is highest in the summer.
On one hand I understand heating has way bigger temperature differentials to overcome but heat is so easy to make. Most machines and technology create heat as a waste or byproduct so it always feels like purposely creating heat should be so easy.
Also, a person in Arizona is going to use much less energy than a person living in Minnesota. Not to mention the energy used in Arizona is going to come from lower carbon sources than in Minnesota. It just breaks people expectations that a big, complicated machine uses less energy than simply setting something on fire.
they are more efficient long term. short term though it is 'it is cold in here turn up the heat' the time it takes a heat pump to make that happen is much longer than say a natural gas system. the NG system uses more energy though to do it in a shorter amount of time. but it happens perception wise faster.
My reasoning is that everyone in the US had parents who knew you'd die if you didn't heat your house, but in most cases, AC is a comfort thing, so AC was treated as the luxury and heat as the normal.
I hate that I've come to this conclusion but urgent care has been quite a disappointment every time I go. When I broke my wrist they did nothing and told me to go to the ER since they don't xray. When I was very ill and suspected food poisoning they told me to go to the ER since they don't do IVs.
If you can't xray or IV then what can you do? So useless.
Old School Runescape. I know it sounds impossible to play a game while working. However, a huge part of this game is click and wait between 10 seconds to 10 minutes. I get a ding in my headset when I need to click again. It requires just enough attention that I need to be active at my computer but after that click I have nothing better to do than work.
I work from home, and I've been tempted to do this. However, for me, I'd rather just get the job done in fewer hours with my full focus, and then do chores, etc, in my other hours.
