Fascinating study. What this historical evidence shows is that, during a critical period of development, even relatively small differences in sugar exposure over a short period may leave effects that are still observable half a century later.
(Disclaimer: I was one of those babies born under sugar rationing).

A Chinese mother and son spent 5 years on their passion project: an animation about a cow having a dream about walking upright.
They did it in SketchUp. It’s so amateur and primitive that people started buying tickets to see how ‘bad’ it is. Honestly, from all the videos I’ve seen of people in the cinema laughing as they’re in the cinema.. a work of art really.
I’d rather watch this than a crisp but soulless genAI movie

The Internet's Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz (2014)

The reverse claim - that it would lower rents - was NatACT First's argument for giving landlords millions in free public money ("tax relief") within their first 100 days, by reversing Robertson's policy.
Campbell's argument also ignores the ways that a Land Tax - like much of Robertson's housing policy - discourages people with large pools of wealth from growing it by betting up the capital value of property. And with it, the rents required to pay those mortgages.
(2/?)
It's really quite amazing the intellectual knots some people manage to tie themselves in, trying to explain why Labour under Hipkins is "centre-left", while Opportunity are "centre-right ". Campbell is more skilled than most, and the economic contortionist act he pulls off is truly impressive.
But like this one, most of these arguments don't survive the most basic fact-check. Some do, as I've noted, such as their willingness to fire public servants to balance the books. Focus on those!
(3/3)

Pixels have become much harder to support. Android 16 removed support for Pixels and they became harder to properly support than many other devices rather than easier. It's crucial to keep up with the major OS updates to provide all the security patches and we do but it's much harder for us now.
