For the Papua New Guinea question, the picture wouldn't load on my computer... Can you fix that, or is it a once-off problem that happened to occur to me?
Oof. That was rough. I knew Carter had won one, and I wasn’t sure that the peace prize existed before 1920… and the other three… I don’t really have an excuse for those ones! I got “lotus eaters” in the Odyssey confused with locust eaters I guess. Yikes.
Got them all but was very slow on a few, especially the last one, where my brain refused to process which islands are the Canaries for about 30 seconds 😂
How's everyone's stats looking now that we're on day 100? Today brought my average score just a hair above 9k, to 9,002 😁
I'm at 8637, today's 10 gave me a good last push. Been following my battle with Dimby for a while, we were neck-and-neck until today. Over 9000!! is insane, congratulations.
According to World Athletics (the international governing body for athletics):
Why is the men’s hurdles race 110m and the women’s 100m?
The men’s 110m hurdles was standardised in line with the average height and stride of male hurdlers. Whereas, the women’s 100m hurdles event is a shorter distance in order to accommodate for the average height and stride of female athletes.
The Ozempic answer isn't incorrect because patients will see weight loss when using it, but that's not the approved use case according to the FDA. Ozempic is a type 2 diabetes medication. Wegovy and Zepbound are meant to meant to combat obesity.
Still broken. We used to be able to report directly from the comment. Not sure, but there's got to be a way now. I got lucky and guessed it correctly today.
Also yay 100 DTCs reached! 🎉
