Slight male navigational advantage likely due to cultural differences, researchers find
  • Unfortunately it is not, yours however is uninformed. One doesn't measure genetics in meters of DNA. The difference between chimps and humans is just 1% of genome, and their difference are not mostly cultural because they have almost identical DNA. Genetics is so complex that changes in a single gene can have enormous difference in the physiology of a system.

    There are a lot of misconception about genetics and males/females differences, such that their differences are almost all cultural. Mainly because people confuse sexes and genders

  • We are talking of a case that, if true, would be a biological difference.

    Sex is not irrelevant, and thinking that talking about biological differences is done to invalidate trans... I mean, it's a problem of the reader biases. The downvoters should think twice that the world is not made of people trying to invalidate trans people. I am fine with whatever a trans person does. Also because many trans people have biological characteristics that can be in between. Biologically, trans people are a universe of biological differences, they are not a single bucket. If I had to talk about trans people, I'd talk about trans people.

  • I have no idea if there is a difference in orientation abilities but if it exists, it would clearly be biological. I am happy it is a urban legend.

    But nowadays too many people claim that male and female are identical with the exception of the penis. And it is pretty dangerous. Any trans person who transitioned can say how different their bodies and feelings are by just changing the amount of few hormones.

    The fact that my comment has as many downvotes as upvotes demonstrated that the fact that biological differences exists are not so well known

  • Arizona may join Italy by banning lab-grown meat from the state
  • Your assumption is that all meat tastes the same. Try eating a free range Argentinian steak and a cheap Tesco value steak... They are not the same.

    I cannot judge grown meat, but meat taste greatly varies

  • Slight male navigational advantage likely due to cultural differences, researchers find
  • That is scientifically untrue. Male and female have very different biology, this is why diseases have different distribution, and drugs different effects. Biological differences are the vast majority, and can be easily studied statistically

    There are also cultural differences. But saying that most or all differences are cultural is pretty dangerous.

    Edit. Corrected wrong edit

  • Ask HN: What's the best car without undesirable features?
  • Your requests are quite easy to satisfy. Just avoid fancy cars.

    Fiat Panda 4wd is a perfect example. Now, the question is, is it a car you'd like to drive?

    Anyway, full of European and Japanese cars that satisfy your requirements. Most cars cheaper than 25K euros in Europe actually satisfy those requirements

  • The tech sector is pouring billions of dollars into AI. But it keeps laying off humans
  • No, this is independent on AI. AI for big tech is a core product, like a car for BMW. The layoffs are completely unrelated to AI, and related to stock price and interest rates of borrowing money. None of the layoff employee has been substituted by AI. It's pure old school finance

    Unrelated news in a single title just to attract readers. Usual sh**y to ride the AI hate bandwagon
