This is super interesting. The last one I can read fluently is 1600. I can then still read it and figure out (almost) every word, with some puzzling, but then lose it almost completely at 1200. www.deadlanguagesociety.com/p/how-far-ba...

Pyramid pie (creator: unknown)
A pie chart titled with its legend "Sky", "Sunny side of pyramid", and "Shady side of pyramid". The majority of the circle, a large blue segment, represents "Sky". A smaller, bright yellow segment represents the "Sunny side of pyramid", and an even smaller, darker yellow segment represents the "Shady side of pyramid", creating a visual impression of a pyramid base within a circular sky.

Further evidence that diets are pretty stable through later adult life (British Whitehall II cohort study). Nice paper from Mengmei Wang et al. @ucl.ac.uk showing UPF trajectories and links to CVD and CHD. Reinforces the need to develop healthy dietary behaviours earlier in life.
