Why is more reliable wrestling a man than fighting them standing if you could have a similar knowledge on one of them?

High level wrestling is hardly matched by a novice but high level striking can be matched with a haymaker.

What are the main differences on learning and applying them both?

The Gell-Mann amnesia effect

No.14266577 ViewReplyOriginalReport
Wikipedia has deleted it's page on the Gell-Mann amnesia effect and redirected it to the Michael Crichton page.
Does anyone here have personal experience with the Gell-Mann amnesia effect? If so plz share your stories

>Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. … You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. …
>You read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know. …
>In ordinary life, if somebody consistently exaggerates or lies to you, you soon discount everything they say. … But when it comes to the media, we believe against evidence that it is probably worth our time to read other parts of the paper. … The only possible explanation for our behavior is amnesia.

>succulents are like 99% water
>only grow in deserts
yeah that sure makes sense. has anybody considered the obvious conclusion: succulents grow in verdant areas, suck all the water away, thus turning them into deserts?

Brainlet here

Do viruses violate whatever law of thermodynamics? They hijack cells to reproduce, just using dna/rna/whatever, but where does the "energy" to do the hijacking comes from? they don't produce/store energy, so how can they move the material necessary to infect a cell?

Chemical damage to eyes?

No.14268048 ViewReplyOriginalReport
I was applying lots of perfume on my neck and head area and maybe some got into my eye, not maybe, I felt some slight discomfort as soon as I did that, many times. I want to add that I was wearing glasses during this so that might have minimized exposure but I still felt discomfort. I sadly went on to wash my eyes the wrong way, with soap and water and rubbing, a no-no according to the internet, I felt more irritation, I then went to do it properly which was by getting lots of cold water to pass on the eyes to clean them but am I in the clear? I don't want to lose or damage my sight Currently eyes feel slightly sore

I didn't do 20 minutes of washing, proper method, more like 5, water over eyes and had them closed for 30 minutes or 29 accordimg to online advice, how to know if im in the clear? when should i worry? I didn't remove it in the first 2 minutes, more like 10 if not 15, cause of concern for permanent eye damage?
