Well if it wasn't official, now it is, < has become the official Deadpool of Earth 1218

Depends entirely on the person. <'s uncles were 1,60ish m at the age of 18 but all got a boost up past their 21st, and are now all more around 1,80-1,85 m.Ray502 wrote:< thinks that the body stops growing once someone hits the age of 18.
Since everyone else in the world would still be speaking when we stopped teaching that next generation, they'd still hear speech all around them and assimilate that into their own grasp of language, which would (most probably) still be very close to what the language was "supposed to be" at that point in time. They may not grasp the full spectrum of complicated grammar or vocabulary as quickly as when taught, but they probably still could in time, with effort on their own part. They could even teach themselves to read at their own pace if they were so inclined.Ambidextroid wrote:imagine if, from today onwards, nobody was taught anything. Nobody taught children how to speak and there were no schools (...) < imagines the human race would return to being as primitive as cavemen (...) Even with books and recordings and such, they would be absolutely meaningless to everyone.

This is a behavior unique to humans and it seems that we of all species will see the least evolution in the future because of it.
And actually, humans are evolving still to this day. < calls on the example of sickle cell anaemia. It is quite an unfortunate disorder for an individual to have except that it provides total and complete immunity to the deadly, deadly malaria disease. Where would a trait like this be beneficial? Why, in Africa, where the malaria disease is raging feverishly. And that's exactly where we happen to find SCA most often, because individuals inflicted with the disorder actually have a higher chance of survival than those who are not, in those conditions.Hunchman801 wrote:I agree though that modern society has completely stopped natural selection (it's probably going backwards now).

< is only making a hypothetical situation here, where a whole generation is completely cut off from all communication. If you raised a baby in a room with no communication and left a library of literature, it would never learn to read unless taught by somebody who already knows how. < was simply making the point that we are dependant on other humans teaching us, and that passed on knowledge that exists only in the minds of the human race is all that keeps us afloat. < realises that you could probably make some kind of robot or computer that teaches babies how to speak and read, but < can't imagine that exists.Shrooblord wrote:Since everyone else in the world would still be speaking when we stopped teaching that next generation, they'd still hear speech all around them and assimilate that into their own grasp of language, which would (most probably) still be very close to what the language was "supposed to be" at that point in time.

It'll always be MacOSX to me...Fifo wrote:< says it’s not OS X anymore ffs it’s macOSHoodcom wrote:< has successfully installed OSX Sierra under ESXi. < is actually pleased.
< Says the version still starts with a 10, it's still X. Regardless how you look at it or what they changed it to. X is the roman numeral of 10.Fifo wrote:< says it’s not OS X anymore ffs it’s macOSHoodcom wrote:< has successfully installed OSX Sierra under ESXi. < is actually pleased.
< agrees, it is still the easiest way to define the old Mac OS to OSX. Period.Master wrote:It'll always be MacOSX to me...Fifo wrote:< says it’s not OS X anymore ffs it’s macOSHoodcom wrote:< has successfully installed OSX Sierra under ESXi. < is actually pleased.
< remembers the days when iOS was caleed iPhoneOS, they dropped that pretty quickly.
