Risk-taking isn't just for teens. New data on infant chimp leaps suggests early ontogeny—not adolescence—is the primary window for high-stakes motor learning. Crucial for understanding human evolutionary life history. 🐒🦴 #Anthropolgy #Primatology

It's my firm belief that the human species are fundamentally curious, kind, selfless, generous and helpful. One might even say that humans are left leaning by nature, if one wants to slap labels on shit.

The opposites, being ignorant, mean, selfish, greedy and egotistical, for this you have to be trained. This, you might want to label right leaning.

Now, I have no scientific background or anything supporting my beliefs so a discussion without name-calling or belittling would be nice.

What do you think?
Are humans "good" or "bad", "left" or "right", by nature?

Evidence suggests Neanderthal blood protein may be part of reason for their demise

A team of paleoanthropologists and geneticists from Aix Marseille Univ, CNRS, EFS, ADES has found evidence of what may have been a contributing factor to the decline of Neanderthals. In their paper published in the journal Scientific Reports, the group describes how they conducted genetic sequencing of three hominid gene populations to learn more about their red blood cell antigens and what they learned by doing so.

I wonder if it is possible to predict if ancient individuals were autistic based on the footprints they left behind.
