That was the theory and how it works in a petri dish, however that’s not how it works in the body.
Antibiotic treatment doesn’t have to kill all of the bacteria. It needs to kill enough so the immune system can catch up and finish the job.
There been evidence for more than 50 years that overly long antibiotic treatments cause resistance to build up faster. That’s why they have limits on the first place.
So there’s a balance between too few days, and to many.
Hydroponic greenhouses in the late 1970’s for one bankruptcy. Off a deep well on a high mountain valley with water that came out of the ground at 6-8C… Oh and brutally cold winters down to -30C The heating cost alone for the water was prohibitive. They blamed the Mexicans for “tanking the market” for that bankruptcy.
On the other side, they always chased last year’s market. Sugarbeets were high so they doubled their acres - bank forced sale of 300 on that one. Beef was high so they bought steers ar extremely high prices and then sold them at a loss… bank forced the sale of another 400 acres plus they lost their grazing contract. The last one was lamas. Yep they bought 100 of them… Somehow it was the blacks fault for that one… never did quite figure out how. I currently guess the bank got a new loan manager who happened to have a darker skin color.
Nope, that’s not what it means at all
Genetically linked behaviors follow distribution curves. There is always variation in every population for any behavior. When a behavior is highly selected for, alternative behaviors become more rare…but they still happen.
A good example of this is homosexuality, evolutionarily speaking this behavior is highly selected against (reduced babies). It still occurs in all sorts of species.
What this means is that around 2/3rds of humans are strictly monogamous. Around 1/3rd of humans are promiscuous or partially promiscuous. These are instinctual behaviors that can be overcome somewhat by cultural norms. On an individual basis, for every 3 people you meet, one instinctually finds sleeping around to be their “normal” behavior.
My parents and grandparents taught me how to go bankrupt…
Step 1: Mortgage inherited assets to follow the latest fad.
Step 2: Make no profit but spend tons money.
Step 3: Accept government handouts right and left but still lose money.
Step 4: Go bankrupt and lose everything you inherited.
Step 5: Blame everyone else for your own stupidity. Extra emphasis on people with darker skin color.
The actual plant in the picture is poison oak.
$16.50 adjusted for 11 years of inflation is $22.36.
So in real terms they have rewarded your friend with a 1.5% annual pay increase for 11 years of loyalty.
By swapping jobs your pay has increased by around 9.4% per year during the sametime.
The first 5-10 years a person works usually results in massive amount of growth in skills and productivity. If a company won’t adequately compensate for their ever increasing value, another one will.
Annual pay raises were never more than 3% when I stayed with a company - usually 1-2%. When I swapped jobs I had a few 30% pay raises.
From my experience, anything you wear has the possibility to be mocked so just roll within it. If it’s funny enough buy the instigator a beer.
That’s how I had some good nights in Ireland when I was 21, of what I can recall that is. Its a wee bit hazy for some reason.
My wife has a couple graduate degrees on this subject. This is one that I got to be the unwilling editor on her papers for.
Its a lack of understanding how students need to learn the information: memorization by usage versus memorization by rote.
Memorization by rote: This is the old school method of teaching. You memorize random facts figures with no context or usage. Its a bit of standalone information that is often not useful. Memorization by rote leads to kids that can say all of the letters but not recognize the symbols or associated them with sounds and words.
Memorization by usage: This is a much more effective method to teach. Its also much harder. This requires teaching the concepts and systems and linking the information together. You memorize the same information by repeated usage but it’s in context. It takes a ton more skill to teach this way because you have to engage the student through the entire process, repeatedly.

Here’s a paper discussing the issue.
Corn to teosintes GMO contamination is also huge issue especially in southern states.
20+ years after a failed introduction of GMO RR wheat, they are still finding it in fields.

A form of sexual dimorphism. Honestly compared to real examples like the angler fish it’s not even that weird.
The so called terminator gene was developed in and to attempt to limit the spread of GMO genes into the wild populations. It was a USDA-ARS program. Not their best work but it would have prevented today’s clusterfuck of contamination.
Where on the plant are the leaves yellowing?
My first guess would be transplant shock. When the roots are damaged the plant has heal them. The plant needs to uptake nutrients to repair the cells and grow new tissues. The problem is the roots are damaged and plant struggles to pull nutrients from the soil. So the plant moves mobile nutrients (like Nitrogen) from older leaves to the new growth.
The solution is usually to give the plant some fertilizer and wait a few weeks.
Why is productivity down 80%? We can’t get good employees in our country We should downsize them all and outsource to India.
“Regular” peas are are still harvested immature only at a later development stage. Fully mature peas are very hard like a dry bean.
Sweet corn contains gene mutations that reduces the sugar to starch conversion in the kernal. So the sugar builds up in the kernal instead. The varieties are classified by the gene or combinations of genes they contain (su, se, or sh2). When the seed is fully mature and dry the seed looks like a raisin because of the lack of starch
The end color the peppers change into is genetically controlled and a wee bit complicated.

However it usually shifts from green to the final color directly.
Molecular biologist: repeatedly spike their samples and reagents to cause random failures. Eventually lack of sleep from running it “just one more time” will kill them.
The kitchen, dining and living room being together is pretty normal in smaller places. I have lived in several that were open that way over the years. It’s not great but it’s doable. The lack of wall space so less cabinets/closets and overall storage is the usual problem.
However the bedroom… That’s a bit too far.
This is what happens when the main tap root is pruned on a carrot. Look up nematode damage on carrots and it looks very similar.

If that carrot was from the grocery store, you’ll not be successfull in producing seed without another OP plant. Hybrid carrot seeds are produced using a cytoplasmic male sterility gene. This gene mutation blocks the pollen formation on the plants flowers.
In order to produce viable seed, you need another plant without the CMS gene to produce pollen.
In commercial production they use three lines: male line (OP), Female line (CMS) and the maintainer line (OP). The female line and maintainer line are around 99% genetically identical in the nuclear DNA. They use the maintainer line to cross with the CMS female line to produce more female (CMS) seed. They then cross the female line (CMS) with the male line (OP) to produce hybrid seed for sale. The hybrid is CMS like the female line.
Don’t stand too close to that tree. Especially not when the wind is blowing. Its a sign that the root system is mostly dead.
