5 Invaluable Lessons I’ve Learned From Decluttering My Content
I had just finished my last 4th-grade essay, and I couldn’t wait to show my teacher. “I’m finally done, Mrs. Anderson.” “Oh, great job,” she said as she grabbed the 2-gigabyte flash drive from my hand. “Let’s review it one last time.” Everything was going smoothly. I could see her cursor gliding across my introductory sentences, never stopping to make changes. “Perfect,” I thought. “I must’ve done somethin righ…” The sound of a mouse click interrupted my thoughts. I returned my focus in time to see Mrs. Anderson’s hand hovering over her ‘Backspace’ key with 60% of my introduction highlighted. And then she f*cking pressed it.

/t/tsis is alive!
The tribe's name is an acronym for "That's Some Interesting S---!". It's based on a subreddit of the same name that has seen better days.
Right now the definition for what is on or off-topic is a little fuzzy as the original tsis had listed "the future, the universe and consciousness" as some of its topics. To get an idea of what the tribe here could be about, here's some of the top-rated submitted links from the Reddit tsis:
If you know any stories or things like that to share, or if any of that sounds interesting, then please visit the tribe! /t/tsis

How artificial intelligence will save lives in the 21st century
A groundbreaking project led by a Florida State University researcher makes an exponential advance in suicide prediction, potentially giving clinicians the ability to predict who will attempt suicide up to two years in advance with 80 percent accuracy. FSU Psychology researcher Jessica Ribeiro feels an urgency to confront this relentless problem. Shadowing her research is the ever-present awareness that 120 Americans take their lives every day, nearly 45,000 a year.

Why super-smart people may be drawn to a life of crime
A new book finds that high-IQ people have higher rates of crime—and are less likely to get caught. Many prevailing theories of intelligence suggest that people with lower IQs are the ones most likely to break the law, since impulsivity, struggles at school, lack of social bonding, and lack of foresight are all linked to criminality. In comparison, intelligent people have traditionally been seen as less likely to commit crimes, and this view of brainpower as a protective factor against offending has been bolstered by many studies over the decades. But there may be an IQ threshold after which a high IQ becomes more of a risk factor.

New "Bionic" Leaf Is Roughly 10 Times More Efficient Than Natural Photosynthesis
A tree's leaf, a blade of grass, a single algal cell: all make fuel from the simple combination of water, sunlight and carbon dioxide through photosynthesis. Now scientists say they have replicated—and improved on—that trick with their own “bionic leaf.” Chemist Daniel Nocera of Harvard University and his team joined forces with synthetic biologist Pamela Silver of Harvard Medical School and her team to craft a kind of living battery, which they call a bionic leaf for its melding of biology and technology.

Would you purge bad memories from your brain if you could?
Imagine you’re the manager of a café. It stays open late and the neighbourhood has gone quiet by the time you lock the doors. You put the evening’s earnings into a bank bag, tuck that into your backpack, and head home. It’s a short walk through a poorly lit park. And there, next to the pond, you realise you’ve been hearing footsteps behind you. Before you can turn around, a man sprints up and stabs you in the stomach. When you fall to the ground, he kicks you, grabs your backpack, and runs off. Fortunately a bystander calls an ambulance which takes you, bleeding and shaken, to the nearest hospital.
