The latest article does a good job going into anaerobic and aerobic training for sport -- I know a few people who do amateur racewalking, and they gave something similar when talking about why they practiced short running too.
It also makes me want to ask this unrelated questions: If humans (and animals, I presume) can train to build up their strength, speed and endurance, then can plants do the same? How good can they adapt to drastic change in oxygen inthe atmosphere? |

It's a nice coincidence to read a post on your blog about the perfect pitch, since I also came across one of the article you linked in the description just a few days ago.
I have got to ask this, though: Do you have any familiarity with playing instruments? Do you have any opinion on the so-called perfect pitch (A.K.A. tuning the instruments to 256 Hz) |

I hope that you are still around on this forums and see this. I am glad that you started making post again. Hope that we will see another scienctific breakdown in the future.
Also, I notice that there are some of your old posts from 2018 and before are missing images. Maybe you should check out on them? |

I've just read your article on Komi-san. This is actually something I noticed when watching that show! Many people in my family have conditions similar to that, though they also have diabete and liver problems (which you mentioned). My hands too sweat a lot, but it only happens in the winter.
Anyway, looking forward to more biology and medical articles from you! |

This is why titanium is used to build the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird which was invented by Clarence Johnson in 1964 and is the fastest jet powered plane in the world with a top speed of 3,540 km/h because at that speed, the ram air pressure and air friction generated by the supersonic aircraft would either crush the vehicle or vaporize it if it used only aluminum. The Blackbird is so fast that turbines would not be strong enough to withstand the ram-air pressure at such speeds so it uses a ram air compressor to initially compress the air and slow it down to subsonic speeds before entering the converging duct to avoid damaging the turbines. Titanium is also used to build spacecraft along with aluminum.
