That's also something I think about when imagining smelling for the first time.

E.g. smelling something rancid for the first time - how strong of a negative reaction will it be compared to others who grew up with this negative association. Would I ever even be able to map most of the smells others have memorized to their origin? I really hope I get to find out someday.

I'm also a lot more sensitive about texture and mouth feel than friends and family. I know that my taste of things differs from others substantially and I cannot appreciate any nuances in food. Fine dining for example is just wasted on me. You could for example mix a lot of cinnamon, thyme, cilantro and turmeric in my rice and I wouldn't notice any difference as I just can't taste most spices at all since they seem mostly smell based. This also makes it a lot harder for me to actually pinpoint what I like about certain dishes and dislike about others. It's just a combination of texture and the basic tastes. I imagine someone who lost their sense of smell later in life would find the way I experience food horribly bland, but I don't! I still find great joy in food, just in a simpler way I guess.

As someone who was born without a sense of smell this is incredibly intriguing to me. I've always wondered if there's gonna be a time in my life where I'd be able to experience *any* kind of smell through some new scientific discovery. And maybe this is it.

Could I shoot you guys a message when I make my way down to Caltech to try this out someday? :)

Did you guys achieve this by creating a model for all kinds of different sports or did you hunt the arbitrage from different betting providers?

Thanks for linking this, this is as interesting as the main post imo. It's funny how most of the results are as expected, actuaries as the occupation with the lowest divorce rate, while jobs as bartenders and flight attendants sport the highest ones.

What's up with gaming related jobs being at the top though? Gaming managers and gaming services workers especially.

Yep! You can accept and make calls with an Apple Watch, even with the non-cellular version, as long as your phone is in bluetooth range. It even works without being connected to headphones, although I can't recommend that for long calls.

With the cellular version and the appropriate mobile contract you're not bound to the iPhone bluetooth range anymore.

My phone is in the kitchen safe most of the time as well. I've bought an Apple Watch recently and I was mightily afraid it would increase my phone addiction even more. Instead, it got way better and I keep my phone/watch in silent mode 99% of the time. Sudden notifications won't happen anymore and I definitely won't be starting to type out text messages on the watch or start browsing the internet. Important events, such as phone calls from 'favorite' contacts will still get through though and I still have the option to make phone calls in case of emergency.
