Thanks for the video, I just finished watching it and it was super interesting, just like you said! I agree on those 3 basic chronotypes, but I'm not sure if there's room for the dolphins (they're just depressed wolves?)  :bounce: 

I'm definitely a wolf, but I have qualities from other chronotypes as well :bounce: 

 

What's your chronotype? :Amelie_wft:

Definitely a wolf.

I think the traits that he mentions are more or less a general pattern, but with a very wide dispersion on all the parameters (like often in medicine).

Very interesting video and a bit surprising for some parts, but if there's data behind it, then it's really food for thought.

I'll have to check the studies he mentions.

sometimes I see middle aged men and teenaged boys walk outside in winter weather (such as today- it was 20 degrees F with windchill) in nothing but windbreaker, gloves and shorts.    IT is always ???? to me.  My guess is that they have a high metabolism or something.

From experience after it's been past -30c for a week anything above -10c feels like summer, at least right after

@Matt! 10 December 1896: 124 years ago, one of the best Swede in history passed away. He was a really great guy: great scientist/inventor, he loved peace and he was a true philanthropist.:bounce:

You know what you did and yes he was a great man:blah:

I dunno what's going to happen with the vaccine, but it's amazing to see that they could make it in a year. Science is not perfect, but it's still awesome and it gets better every year!

 

We should cherish scientists. :heart:

Despite all the negative and terrible things that happened because of Covid (and they are really horrible), there's still some good that will come out of this: medical research has progressed very fast, we have knowledge on how to (and how not to) manage a pandemic, countries will make strategic stockpiles of masks, etc.

I gotta friend that works, as a computer engineer, on proteomics. The efficiency and accuracy of their job has increased a lot in the past years.  There are many applications, like studying the spike protein (and its mutations) in Covid.

Once again, the world owes a lot to geeks and nerds.  :nicole:
