Ja jebkurš cits pērtiķis (ne homo sapiens) atrastu veidu kā uzkrāt daudz pārtikas (hoarding), kamēr citi sugas brāļi turpat blakus mirtu badā, tad zinātnieki mestos skaidrot, kas nav labi ar attiecīgo pērtiķi un vidi, kurā ir uzradusies tāda nedabīga iespēja.
Homo sapiens gadījumā, uzkrājēji tiek slavināti kā kaut kas uz ko tiekties visiem. Un tie, kas mirst badu, ir paši vainīgi. |

Piemēram, ja tev ir miljardi, tad tu vari nopirkt vēlēšanas un saregulēt visu, lai tiktu pie triljona, kamēr pārējie nevar savilkt galus kopā. Stilīgi. Man droši vien, ka skauž.
Un tas ir nepierēķinot twitera pirkumu. |

These results suggest that it is possible to substantially reduce plastic waste mismanagement – one of the grand environmental challenges of the modern era. However, it is also sobering and instructive to consider the robustness of the policy package required to achieve such a result.

Comparison of working memory performance in athletes and non-athletes: a meta-analysis of behavioural studies
"This meta-analysis compared the WM performance of athletes to that of non-athletes. By integrating data from 21 studies involving 1455 participants, our study revealed a statistically significant, albeit small, advantage in WM for athletes compared to non-athletes (Hedges’ g = 0.30). Moreover, this effect persisted across sports types and performance levels. Notably, this advantage was more pronounced when athletes were contrasted with a sedentary population (Hedges’ g = 0.63), compared to the analysis where the sedentary population was excluded from the non-athlete reference group (Hedges’ g = 0.15). Our findings indicate a consistent link between sports expertise and improved WM performance, while sedentary lifestyles appear to be associated with WM disadvantages. These results suggest the cognitive benefits of sports and emphasise the importance of an active lifestyle for enhancing cognitive health."
