New Life Risk Computing Software Calculates Life Expectancy
professor Dr. Robert Kane has helped design new computer software that can calculate how long you will live based on your lifestyle and diet.
It’s called “The Vitality Compass,” a program designed to calculate your life expectancy. “Most of it is the stuff your mother taught you. Eating reasonable, everything in moderation,” he says.
The 35-question test asks questions regarding your health and lifestyle factors. Many of the questions are no-brainers, such as whether or not you smoke, or how often you exercise. Points are given for each answer.
The program also suggests behavior changes that can add years onto your life. An important feature of the program will be to keep checking in with participants via email, reminding and encouraging them to make better choices.

yeah (interesting essay btw). Maybe i’m naive, but i kinda hope that if i get enough influence on reddit, i might be able to get some more unique stories on the front page, but we’ll see if that ever happens.
you win
Reddit used to generate a lot more content. The amount of posts being submitted hasn’t gone down, the site owners changed the algorithm.I say this because the transition from a really fast front page to an almost totally stagnant one took about 2 days.
hint, it tells you when you submit a link. Type “self” for the url.
