so, where Are these "Homo floresiensis" hobbits now? OH, That's Right.. They Are Extinct.
They were SO SUCCESSFUL.. That they All Died Out..
Homo Floriensis, aka "ebu gogo", or 'little glutton' or 'grandmother who eats everything' among many of the native peoples of Flores in Indonesia kind of blows that theory about calorie inputs out of the water, doesn't it?

God dammit...these NYT hags aren't even trying anymore.
A 2007 study postulated that the skeletons were those of humans who suffered from Laron syndrome, which was first reported in 1966, and is most common in inbreeding populations, which may have been the scenario on the small island.
There seem to be, Lots of theories about Why these hobbits were hobbit sized..
Almost ALL revolve around inbreeding... Not Many about lack of food.
byw. The next island over (thereabouts) is where the Komodo dragons lived. Aside from it being neat that hobbits and dragons lived near each other; it Makes You Wonder, how:
a) there was SO LITTLE FOOD in hobbitland, that they Had to become little
b) there was SO MUCH FOOD in dragonland, that they became HUGE
Here's a simple answer for the 'hobbits' They were cut off from the rest of us; and stagnated..
Then, when WE showed up... We Killed them off, just like the inbred hicks they were
I thought short people had no reason to live per Randy Newman.
“Lowering the height minimum for prospective partners on your dating profile is a step toward a greener planet.“
Hardcore environmentalists are crazy.
Articles like this are how you know climate fanatics and fanaticism is a cult. Here again you literally have someone (I'm assuming it's a woman...) spouting dysgenic nonsense that neither she nor her readership deep-down believes while simultaneously probably having strong opinions about body-shaming fat women all while clapping like a harbor seal for her cult's spokechild in the form of a nordic golem with fetal alcohol syndrome.
Maybe I'm being too harsh. The dysgenic deserve the dysgenic. Love wins.
This is an announcement from Genetic Control:
"It is my sad duty to inform you of a four-foot restriction on
Humanoid height."
Peter Gabriel and Genesis foresaw this in the early 70's
Belief in "climate change" is just anti-humanism dressed up in a new suit.
So long as women prefer tall men, no amount of environmental pressure the Malthusians can dream up will make people shorter. (I’m reminded of a Vonnegut novel in which the Chinese embarked on a program to make people smaller that succeeded to the point where there were untold billions of them, but they lived entirely separate lives from other people—the size difference had become so great that interaction largely stopped.)
Fuck short people.
Just when you thought speculative reporting couldn't reach a new low... where's Randy Newman when you need him?
Does the NYT realize how ridiculous this is?
Randy Newman was not available for comment.
Big people beat the shit out of short people and take their stuff.
They could do everything bigger humans could — make tools, hunt — but they could also stay alive when times got tough.
Ewoks.
Put your height limit in your bio and on your letter head right next to your pronouns and your Ukrainian flag. Don't worry, you don't have to actually date any short people any more than you have to date a trans or fight the Russians.
And I don't believe the story about the short people being survivors. Short people got no reason to live.
There has never been a better time to be stupid, unaware, and/or self-destructive.
However you wish to do things that would result in your failure to survive, there is now a government program to prevent you from perishing. Get a useless education instead of learning useful skills. Take drugs- it's no longer a behavior, it's a disease/disorder. Cut your genitals off. Get pregnant by a bad boy.
When push comes to shove (and it will), the big people can eat the little people.
Under such circumstances, injunctions and restraining orders are not completely effective.
Fishes live in the sea, as men do a-land; the great ones eat up the little ones.
William Shakespeare
When the sea level starts rising, I think the taller people have a definite advantage. And the more bouyant.
This article is a joke, right?

There is a song in there I think!
This is yet another example of why the world is laughing at us and our “culture”.

As a short person who would die if all of the food was moved to the top shelf in the grocery store, I question the premise of the writer's hypothesis.
"'Big people, who need a lot of food, died first,'"
I don't understand. Wouldn't it have been easier for the big people to just kill a bunch of the small people?
"you’re potentially saving the planet by shrinking the needs of subsequent generations"
A small step to: "you’re potentially saving the planet by shrinking subsequent generations" and then to "you’re potentially saving the planet by shrinking the needs of this generation"
"Lowering the height minimum for prospective partners on your dating profile is a step toward a greener planet...."
How long before genocide becomes a prog thing again?
"Others go to extremes in pursuit of a few extra inches — more and more people are spending as much as $150,000 to get excruciating limb-lengthening surgeries, and parents give their healthy children growth hormone treatments with unknown side effects."
So healthy children getting painful surgery and dicey hormone treatments, is extreme in some cases and mandatory in others?
The preference for tall people isn't a fad. It's hard-coded evolutionary biology. Women notice a guy's height and men notice a woman's breasts. Not all the time and it isn't a deal breaker, but everyone looks.
In modern life, a tall person can reach higher shelves and short people have a better time on long flights. That's about it.
Does the NYT publish guest essays at random?
Sad little person. She should change her name to Lessa Altman.
There's nothing like starting off the new year being told that the earth is wearing out and that we will all be poorer and more desperate in the future -- that we've taken all that this old earth can give and we ain't put nothing back in. I would suggest that short people not proclaim their superiority and coming ascendancy too loudly if they want the big people to leave them alone. It also seems likely that the future will change things so much that if man is still alive, if woman can survive, they may find that shortness or tallness will be the least of their worries.
Harari is under attack from left and right for being a pop historian, if a historian at all, and for being a lackey of the Great Reset. I didn't hate Sapiens. I found a lot to disagree with, but also learned things.

Ask single women: with all things being equal other than height would they choose a 5'2" or 6'2" man?*

Bahaha. Bahahahahaha
Tall people who believe in this have Height Guilt.
On one hand, I'm short, so this kind of article would help people like me.
On the other hand, I'm married, so who cares?
On the other, other hand, the article is total BS, so I find it offensive.
On the other, other, other hand, women are hardwired to desire tall men and this story isn't going to change their minds, so the story isn't just mindless pablum, it's also pointless, mindless pablum.
Ms. Althouse, I would tactfully suggest that when you provide coverage of stories like this, you lower the collective IQ of your entire audience, especially those that feel compelled to provide comment. I'm trusting that this is an unforeseen, inadvertent consequence.
How convenient that as a government caused famine envelopes the world slowly we get more articles about how being smaller is an evolutionary advantage and how we proles should be happy eating bugs. They’re nutritious!
Except the arc for 1200 years of human history is increasingly better nutrition coupled with taller offspring in general. I’m really tired of these “enjoy your decline” themes in “news.”
"They could do everything bigger humans could — make tools, hunt — but they could also stay alive when times got tough."
The could do everything, except survive combat with larger Humans.
So Mara Altman has discovered Island Dwarfism - one half of Foster's Rule. She should research the other half next - Island Gigantism.
This is a stupid article written by a stupid person for stupid people to think of as informative and useful.
"Big people beat the shit out of short people and take their stuff..."
I know some relatively short people who could kill you with their bare hands. No matter who you are.
So, us short people are gonna survive into an era when Our Betters have us eating bugs. OK, but why call that an evolutionary advantage? Anyhow, I foresee short people surviving into an era when Our Betters are eating bugs and probably each other, on their own special island called Nemesis. Now that's a natural selection I could get behind.
"Short people don’t just save resources, but as resources become scarcer because of the earth’s growing population and global warming..."
I have a hard time believing that they are this stupid and un self aware.
By 2050, the world population is expected to be lower than it is today, and much lower by 2100. The problem is that much of the world has below replacement level birth rates. The two most populous countries, India, and esp China, are expected to lead the population crash. There is apparently a serious chance that the population of China may drop below half of its projected maximum, by sometime in the 2nd half in the century. The problem is economic combined with urbanization. In a rural, agricultural, culture, extra children are an economic advantage, because they are cheap labor. In an urban setting, they become a expense, a luxury. That means that the only places in the world with populations still increasing are in the Muslim world, and in sub Saharan Africa. You can’t have modern conveniences, along with a high birth rate, for very long just doesn’t work. So you can have Muzzies following their Quran in having as many future Jihadists as they can, or they can leave the 13th Century. Afghanistan may follow the former, but other Muslim countries are modernizing, and, by necessity, reducing family sizes. But where is the food going to come from to feed those countries trying to resist modernization?
The author seems to have missed the memo that the falsifiable theory of Global Warming has effectively been falsified, and has been replaced by the unfalsifiable Climate Change, which essentially means that we have constantly changing weather. Esp humorous here, is the there are, no doubt, articles in the same issue of the paper about the efforts to dig out of the Blizzard of 2022. This is evidence of complete lack of self awareness of both the author and the publisher of the article.
Based on the article, Dudley Moore and Susan Anton were one of the first couples helping to save the planet, whether they knew it or not.
"Blogger Aggie said...Ms. Althouse, I would tactfully suggest that when you provide coverage of stories like this, you lower the collective IQ of your entire audience,…"
Reading Althouse has certainly lowered my opinion of the human race. There are times I think not being here would improve my mood. (Not snark, and not a criticism).
"Big people, who need a lot of food, died first"
Big people don't just need a lot of food. In the worst of times, when cannibalism is on the menu, they provide the most food.
@Jaydub and his teory that some small people can kill you with their bare hands.
Sure. And some big ones could too. I am reminded of the scene in an Indiana Jones movie where the one guy is swinging his sword around, threatening Indie, and he responds by pulling out his gun, and shooting him. But overall, if you hold weapons technology and skill level constant, on average, the bigger guy is going to win. Sure, there are outliers, but the average that is important. Even with guns, the great equalizer, because you can carry more ammunition, and heavier weaponry. There is a good reason why the machine gunner on a SEAL Team is often the biggest guy. It’s similar with edged weapons - holding skill level constant, the bigger guy is going to win more often.
"...when cannibalism is on the menu, they provide the most food."
Very very true. No one can bring victims back for the tribe like big people can. No one.
You can also cut calorie intake by amputating everyone's legs and putting them in little push carts.
It was the big men who the first to die off in the Japanese POW camps. It was the thin wiry small guys that did better.
Trans/homosexuals who are an evolutionary cul-de-sac at best, groomers at worst. Retarded (e.g. the Downs syndrome "burden") people... persons who are suboptimally productive. Women who can be replaced through simulation, emulation h/t Levine. Redheads who are vulnerable to ultraviolet radiation. Blacks who are unfit for northern latitudes. Albinos/whites who are unfit for southern latitudes. Urbane intellectuals who are unfit for a green environment. The grannies, the gramps, the couch potatoes, too. Feminists, masculinists, and incels. Probably others. Planned Personhood... Forward!
I was a 60's liberal - it was a bright, optimistic time. We really thought everything was getting better. It's hard to describe this to people today. The current "progressives" are anything but believers in progress. They love the idea of decline, scarcity, shrinkage, paucity, narrowness, hunger, drought, pain, and death.
Or, to quote Thomas Hobbes, "No arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short." That's the aspiration of all 21st Century Progressives.
Oh, and fat people, people of girth, round-Americans. Fat is a high quality dietary treat that optimizes caloric and nutritional consumption. Don't forget to exercise. #NoJudgment
If you accept the assumptions of The Expanse, we'll need the tall people to mine the asteroid belt!

Exactly. The NY Times is all in on the NWO plan to starve a few billion people.
Imagine if this article wrote the same thing, but the short people were white and the tall people were black.
Harari is a lunatic.
It is interesting that in both reading the article and some of the comments here, one thing shocks me. There is an entire segment of intelligent people who have no understanding of the inevitable power behind physical force in a crumbling society. All of this blather about lack of resources and short people needing fewer so that is good for short people presupposes that society will just portion out rations "fairly" or that larger and more powerful people will just gracefully die shows how removed some people are from the reality of life except in the west for the last century or so.
Assuming a lack of resources, might makes right. Just like there is no crying in baseball, there is no fairness in starvation.
Please internalize one thing- if there is ever a societal collapse, it won't be the accountants and lawyers who come up on top.
There is a Larry Niven book I read about 20 years ago. A meteor had hit the Earth and people were escaping CA to get away from the tidal wave and other destruction. A nice professional guy took his family to their mountain house to be safe. Why not? He owned the house- society told him so. When he got there, imagine his surprise when a group of armed locals had taken over the house and property and told him to just move along nicely. It was theirs now.
If society crumbles so does technology. At that point physical force emerges again.
This is what you get when NYT writers no longer hunt through Twitter for content.

Wrecked? Really? Tell me you live in a big city without telling me you live in a big city. And "we"? You got a mouse in your pocket?
"Big people, who need a lot of food, died first,' Mr. Harari wrote. After generations, the people on the island evolved to reach only three and a half feet tall."
This hypothesis is so stupid that it could only appear in the New York Times (or academia). If there were competition for food between big people and little people, who do you think would get the food? It would be the little people who died out first for lack of food. More to the point, evolution cannot work this quickly unless you were selectively breeding a particular trait such as shortness, so that only little people would be allowed to procreate. But this is not the case here. Even if big people had shorter lives than little people, that would not affect their ability to procreate before they died. Also, the percent of the population that were midgets would be too small to have a perceptible affect on the hight of the population in such a short period of time from an evolutionary perspective.
I went a-looking on my bookshelves for my copy of 1969's The Mason Williams Reading Matter*, as I had thought he had a poem about short people (I was wrong**), but ran into this video on YT.

"Big people, who need a lot of food, died first"
Short because they lack reach. Fat because they are dietary treats. Old because they are past their productive years and vulnerable to pathogenic progress (i.e. high maintenance). The Nazis had one standard (e.g. Jews with big noses - excess oxygen inhalation, excess carbon dioxide exhalation - think climate change). The Dezis have another. There are African cultures that indulge albinism (i.e. prime white), typically a la carte.
This "tiny" island appears to be the size of the combined Hawaiian Island chain or Connecticut, take your pick.
There are a lot, a whole lot, of islands of that size or smaller.

Althouse isn't lowering the collective IQ of her commentariat. She is however using stupid articles - usually from the NYT or WaPo - to tee off on and she drags us along for that tee shot. And of course we read the shot to see if she sliced, hooks or is straight down the fairway. But it's at the put-put equivalency rating of a trash course. And for those of us who purposely ignore her favorite courses - NYT/WaPo - we read her blog and criticize her course management when it's the courses themselves. All Althouse postings should come with a NYT/WaPo warning label.

This is the best post I have ever read here, absolutely perfect! The funniest newspaper article I have seen. The writer is brilliant.
There are a lot of young men who I think incorrectly attribute lack of romantic success to being shorter. That being said. there are a lot of young women who, I think incorrectly, won't date a guy if he is under 6'. Both are better off than the person who choses a partner on the criterion of long-term evolutionary success, Elon Musk excepted. He is quite fecund.
From a quick search: ... Mara Altman wrote Thanks for Coming, an autobiography from Harper Perennial that tells the tale of the 26-year-old’s quest to achieve an orgasm by means of hippie sex communes, Craigslist randoms and multiple masturbatory efforts. Altman is currently working on her second book, which we can only hope will be as satisfying as her first titillating tome.
Yeah, the only question is, "How do you get that much stupid into those tiny little skulls?".

"... it won't be the accountants and lawyers who come up on top."
Don't be so sure about that. Accountants, maybe. But how would you like to find yourself in a death-struggle for the last rat in the cave with a really good lawyer?
But wouldn't being tall be an advantage with the rising sea levels?
Is there any "environmentalist" anywhere, whose prescriptions for change apply to themselves? The pretext for every single article like this is "Here is what OTHER PEOPLE (NOT ME!!1!!1!!) need to do to save the planet".
Any climate changer who doesn't kill themselves to eliminate their carbon footprint is a poser and nothing more.
And Harari is the very definition of a useless eater, elite varietal.
So all 3,400 short people with Portuguese names native to Flores Island in the Azores are unconcerned about supposed rising water levels, just as they are uncaring guardians of domesticated cattle, dogs, and cats starving to death on the Isle of Flowers.
But they are joyfully ripping off the tourists by overcharging for unsatisfactory food, lodging, and car rentals. "Some people have no reason to live."
“Big people don't just need a lot of food. In the worst of times, when cannibalism is on the menu, they provide the most food.
Keep in mind though that one of the problems with human cannibalism is what I call “Mad Human Disease”. Caused by the same thing that gives us Mad Cow Disease - picking up prions through cannibalism. There may be some species that do this a lot, and maybe immune to it (brown bears?), but we don’t seem to be one of them.
My view is that if we really do see the SHTF, the survivors are going to be the best armed, big or small. And know how to use their firearms. That probably excludes most inner city middle class whites, and esp liberal ones. Likely, one of the demographics hardest hit will be NYT readers. And writers, etc.

I say, for starters we can disband the NBA. Also the WNBA -- Mara says not a word about tall women, but they're out there, too. Who are these sports commissars, artificially prizing height? NFL next -- there are people in there artificially bulked up to 300 lbs. of solid muscle, who I imagine take an awful lot of feeding. And after that . . . why are we even talking about height, when the more obvious criterion is weight? I mean, it's all very well to denounce "fat-shaming," so long as it's only about women, but, hey, the future of the planet is at stake! Nothing is more important than the future of the planet! Right?
