its funny how after years of readinf the everest threads i can just jump to the end without reading and go "oh its the russian hikers that froze part" and jump right in

when people slowly freeze to death the final phase is "go crazy and party naked." That's it. Their eyes and tongues were eaten cause that and the genitals are the first parts to get scavenged because they're soft and nutritious

polar explorers have had similar naked parties before expiring

gym climbing's fun, especially if you can go outside the hours office workers go

idk if its like this elsewhere but in the bay area gym climbing has become golf for tech workers

I'm reading Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air and it's making me NOT want to climb Everest. All of the people in this book were stupid before ascending and then hypoxia made them literal idiot babies and they all died from making insane decisions.

i read somewhere that there's a joint navy/coastguard forest somewhere in the midwest that's used to keep their two wooden-hulled ships seaworthy and it takes a shockingly huge amount of land to sustainably harvest enough. for two ships. that are already built. it's amazing there are any trees left anywhere

Really? You had best tell all the people operating helicopters in the Alps. Not to mention the guy who landed one on the summit of Everest.

all of which have the various compromises and modifications he listed

helicopters are the most maintenance-intensive machines ever created. they're mind-bogglingly expensive to operate, and the cost to operate them for one-off use cases (like carrying people to a mountaintop in one of the most remote and hostile environments on earth) increases logarithmically the more further-removed you are from ordinary, routinely economically viable locations and use cases. those alpine helicopters could do it, if they and all their support infrastructure wasn't on the other side of an ocean.

the everest thing was so improbable that most people were certain it would never happen even if the math said it was on the edge of possibility

I guess I should have expected the well akshually brigade when I mentioned everest. Yes it's not normal at 8848 but 3700m is totally routine, all the mountain huts around here are resupplied by helicopter and it's fine. Maybe your pilots suck?

Yes, that exact thing is a major feature of Piraha culture. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirah%E3_people That wasn�t known before the mission because no outsider really spoke the language before he did.

It�s a really interesting mindset, part of their general lack of focus on the past and the future. Definitely recommend the guy�s memoir, Don�t Sleep, There Are Snakes.

While the whole missionary thing didn�t work out so great, I wouldn�t say his life was wasted. He�s done a ton of work on very rare languages, documenting them, developing orthographies, becoming the first outside speaker of Piraha, etc. He�s very famous in linguistics circles, is a college professor, and has an enjoyable feud with Chomsky

iirc the first solid evidence we have of counting comes after agriculture. it may just be that without a surplus to trade with a nonfamily outgroup, numbers aren't necessary. there's "enough" and "not enough" and thats... enough.

Pre-agricultural societies still want to track the lunar cycle for tides and how much light you have at night. Knowing when to go down to the tidelands to dig up clams or whether you'll be able to keep persistence hunting something after sundown are very useful.

sure, but that doesn't require counting. it requires looking up and seeing the moon is waxing

polynesians navigated across open ocean by the stars without sextants or charts, they just did it with practice and passed it on through apprenticeship. just because we use numbers to communicate an idea now doesn't mean that's the only way to do it.

the lunar cycle and the menstural cycle both being 28 days is very convenient, I dunno if anthropologists mention it but I bet those societies knew that if Brenda started her last period three days past the last new moon, and she's having her period now, they know pretty closely what the phase of the moon is today

also if it's too overcast to see the moon it's too overcast to hunt after sunset and the next high tide is gonna be almost exactly one half day after the previous

the menstrual cycle being "28 days" is a convenient (for early 20th century male physiologists, primarily) average and not anything you should set a clock to

Yeah periods "sync up" in the same way your turn signal will sync up with the car's in front of you: they just overlap after a while because they're slightly different. Only with blinkers they fall in and out of sync quickly, periods are slower so they can stay lined up for longer, feeding the illusion
