Yes, it's as simple as the back end not validating that the user id and email address in the requests are tied to the active session. It's a very common mistake, often happens when devs try to roll their own session management/access control functionality

The pH of human stomach acid is on par with that of many scavengers, such as vultures.

Anthropological evidence indicates that early hominids, as they began their transition to a more carnivorous diet, were feeding on the left overs from other carnivorous predators - which would explain the need for such an extremely acidic stomach

Freedom of speech is an ideal - as such it is not easily achieved or maintained, even by the "best" of us - or those who claim to believe most in it.

If you read Free Speech: A History from Socrates to Social Media you'll find this "irony" repeated throughout history. It's a problem of human nature, and that's what ideals arduously seek to overcome.

"I cannot contemplate human affairs, without laughing or crying. I choose to laugh. When People talk of the Freedom of Writing Speaking or thinking, I cannot choose but laugh. No such thing ever existed. No such thing now exists: but I hope it will exist, But it must be hundreds of years after you and I Shall write and Speak no more."

-John Adams, letter to Thomas Jefferson, 1817

1. Plants defend themselves from predators (i.e. animals, humans, insects) via chemical warfare. These chemicals can and do disrupt the gut of the predator to dissuade them from consuming the plant. At least in humans, 70-80% of immune cells are contained in the gut. Many genetically modified plants are engineered to produce more of these gut disrupting chemical defense compounds to be more resistant to predators.

2. A study by the CDC estimates that 80% of Americans have glyphosate in their urine. Glyphosate is an antibiotic proven to be disrupting to gut bacteria. Crops are being genetically engineered to allow for more and more glyphosate exposure because the weeds are growing increasingly resistant to it, requiring even more glyphosate - which in turn runs off into our water supply. It's a positive feedback loop as nature abhors monoculture (less diversity = less evolutionary resiliency), and seeks to restore balance and diversity with pests, weeds, viruses, etc. Monocrop agriculture is fundamentally unsustainable

At best, the idea that we can "prevent/reverse" climate change, and control the global climate like a household thermostat is purely a hypothesis, at worst, its futile mythology that the priestly caste has been asserting as the path to salvation since the beginning of human history.

Primitive hominids have learned to adapt thru massive climate change for millions of years. Makes sense that we should put more effort into what we know we can do (adapt), than unquestioningly following ideas that shamans, priests, and scientists claim can be done -- with zero proof.

Why do you think people create sock puppet armies?

Our water, like much of our food, is poisonous. Though at low enough levels that it can take years or decades before the chronic health problems begin to show up.

The CDC recently found in a study that ~80% of people have glyphosate in their urine.
