Since humans have evolved from thousands of years, wouldn't they have adapted themselves to the hot or cold climate permanently. They would probably not feel comfortable if they move from cold climate to hot or vice versa. Don't know how much quickly people adapt themselves to the unique climate of respective countries.

over the very long term there may have been an advantage to moving beyond where our parasites and diseases co-evolved with our species ancestors

but for a long time now fellow humans have been the major determining pressure of where you can eek out a living
 
Highest recorded temperature in South Africa is 50C.
48.8C in Vredendal, which is Dutch for Peace Valley, 5 weeks ago.

(take a guess which are the least visible immigrants worldwide ; US, Canada, Australia, etcetera. Who will eat your food, drink your beverages, wear your clothes, adapt to both your climate and culture ?)
 
So is this what helps you identify myrtle from oak wood bock cable lifters?

Precisely what about this paper tells you the things you claim to hear are real, and more importantly, why DBT isn't the best tool available to prove or disprove claims made about audio equipment?

About TOR, I don't fully agree with some previous remarks, here, about "morality" ( child pornography etc.)
The first and main attempt to morality was done by states themselves, using illegal technologies to spy on citizens and even foreign governments in an scandalous way. (NSA and some others).
TOR was just an attempt to recover our rights to privacy.

Now, journalists try to put discredit on it with stupid comments about 'Black Internet" like if it was an underground world of crimes.
There is no "black Internet" as-it. It is like phones. You can use your phones to talk with your friends as well as to prepare crimes. Is-it the problem of the phones ?
TOR is an attempt to make more difficult to organisations like NSA to spy-you. To fight against "Big brother". A countermeasure.
The negative point is that it slows communications, first, and that some are using the tool with bad purposes. But they could use Post offices or pigeons as well ;-)

Human hearing beats the Fourier uncertainty principle

Oops! Old news for some of us. This was published in 2013 in Phys. Rev. Let. Those guys are so silly... Don't they know that we already know everything about human hearing? Geez, what a waste of time.

😎 🙂 Interesting read. We keep adding to our base of knowledge and one day some new things will start to become obvious.

yes, that is quit true Charles H., . However, many people cannot leave their country as I can. They just cannot afford the visa, airplane ticket etc and they may not be allowed to leave because of their government or ours..... The American embassy in Kathmandu, Nepal was asked if my Nepalese friend could get a visa to USA. The answer was: only if he could convince a professional interrogator why he would want to return.

If you mean your fellow gene pool then in SA they have been pretty visible, and certainly very audible. Oh and in some cases completely bonkers! So few points for disappearing there 😛

Local evolutionary adapations for diet and climate is a fascinating area of study. Wish it made more sense to me. I am sure someone is trying to gene splice some native american modifications so they can sell a therapy that means you can eat nothing but steak and stay healthy!

Not sure how much has been done on hearing acuity between groups.
 
Migration.
From above link it seems major migration took place at 10 to 20000 years of interval in prehistoric times. Climate related probably. Also migration was from coldest climate to moderate. It is astonishing that these days a three year conflict can migrate 200,000 / 300,000 people across the nations.

Not groups but for the European population it is documented in ISO 7029, along with how it varies with age. It's a pain that these standards are only available for a fee, but the British Library in London has subscription to the ISO e-library so it's free to read in there, also paper copies. I think other libraries in the UK have similar arrangements.

It's well worth a read and will almost certainly shatter some myths.

This has been posted before.... and discussed in detail a few months ago. I believe it does not support the GEB...
 
Dutch - The Canadian Encyclopedia
Same same for the US, Oz, you name it.
How does that compare to Irish immigrants to NA or even Finns to Minneapolis? Hint most of Ireland went to America to avoid starving to death!

(The SA line referred to climate/temperature, btw. Surely you're not implying white South-Africans have in any way been Dutch over the last 2.5 centuries ?)

Tall, funny language. No, not at all 😛
