You can't unit test for taste

I’m building In the Long Run where runners do virtual runs on famous routes around the world. The app tallies up your Strava mileage and plots your total distance as progress against country- or continent-spanning routes. The intention is to provide long-term inspiration and motivation; life is a marathon, not a sprint. You can have a bad month or season but still make progress on your virtual traversal of the world.

Early adversity leaves lasting molecular imprint across the body: primate study

The experiences we face early in life may leave their marks on our health in ways that echo across decades—and even across the entire body. A new study, published in the journal Science, examined a unique group of free-living rhesus macaques that have been followed their entire lives to document their experiences.,In this study, researchers developed highly precise tissue-specific clocks, capable of predicting age within about one year of an individual's chronological age. They conducted their study of 237 macaques, who live in semi-natural conditions on Cayo Santiago (colloquially referred to as "Monkey Island"), a 38-acre island off Puerto Rico's east coast. The island is inhabited by over 1,500 free-ranging rhesus macaques and managed by
