Futurama :)
They analysed the blood of persons over 60. So the amount of donations accumulated over a lifetime. But you are right, they had to donate several times for many decades.
I guess in a certain context these mutations are useful. After blood loss EPO stimulates the growth of new red blood cells. So if they lost a lot of blood these individuals probably had a slight advantage because their body would form new blood cells faster compared to the controls.

I like the concept! Two things that came to mind after trying it today:
- Doubling the price is way to much to make this work in the long run. Maybe something between 10 and 30% could be reasonable?
- Some form of publicity is needed. Why else would someone bother to pay for this form of advertisement?
Once my bank transfered a loan for my dad to my account. It was only around 30k, but I was like 16 at that time, so this was an enourmous amount. Obviously they noticed the mistake after a day or so.
I use Simplelogin to generate single-use mail addresses that forward mails to my "real" address. For each service that requires an email you can generate a new address with one click. Once you start receiving unwanted spam you can just turn the address off. This also has the advantage that you know which service leaked your email address.
Trainspotting.
Mark Renton gets up early in the morning, hung over. Drinks a glass of water. Then, grabs the bag of cash from his sleeping friends arms and heads out, possibly to start a new life without drugs & crime.
Trainspotting also has the best soundtrack!

Here is the second blog post by the founder of atai Life Sciences, published today: What psychedelics and Bitcoin have in common
In short: Both stand for freedom
I have posted my own thoughts on this recently: 877770
Inspiring read! Made me think of bitcoin meetups. People get together who have one thing in common: Their interest in bitcoin. But other than that they often hold very different views. I remember a woman who tried to convince me the government dumbing down the population with chemtrails and I was getting really annoyed with her.
This article contains some good advice for these kinds of situations.
I definitely agree on the dark chocolate! And food in general. Investing in good, healthy food literally buys you time.
Probably all of the above. But mostly because many doctors are overworked and it is the easy way out for both. For the patient because he doesn't have to change his lifestyle, for the doctor because the patient shuts up and leaves, because: hey, if the doctor says so it must be right. Moreover, pharma companies probably sugarcoated the addictive potential (as was the case with oxycontin)
Interesting read. These things tend to be more extreme in the US, in europe doctors are much more careful with the prescription of these types of drugs. Same with opioids, europe has been mostly spared by the opioid epidemic.
When Skyrim came out I was alone and had a free week. I would get up in the morning, smoke a bong and dive into exploring the world until late at night. Probably ate something in between and smoked a second bong. Truly magic gaming memories.
