"A Bone-Chilling Discovery Has Emerged From the Ice Age—and It's Still Shaping Humanity"

So the old "autism came from neanderthals" hypothesis that ran its course for a few years in the 2010s might not have been totally off the mark. Autism might be related to Denisovian DNA mixing in.

That is very chilling. I could have some of that DNA.

This is actually good news for me. I am trying to prove that Autistic people are the original design.

That's so cool.

headlines just to get attention? "bone chilling".... ??? or is that a play on the fact that the find is from the ice age maybe. argh... I'm always the last to get the joke.

maybe they thought that. bone- chilling was good marketing ....???
but it is a potentially curious thing ..oddly had noticed as time passed , if I was outside in the cold ..And I came in just alittle bit , It seemed if after alittle warm up , my length of time outside was more comfortable and less bone chilling
when I went outside the second time . Within a hour or two .Literally put ....after -8 degrees F outside ...which is defo not an ideal time to test this concept . When the temperature went back up to 28 or 32 F it was almost sweater weather,
It was like my body had aclimated . But after being warm for a few days as temp. rose and if I was less active .
It could be 47F and could feel quite chilly . And trying to predict this phenomina, was pretty hard .. But living in the midwest . I saw it over and over again , happen to me .?..?... and even one other Aspie friend . Whom became aware of it . After he experienced it first hand.. Just weird.... First , i thought it was just me not adapting well .
Cause i would end up being hot indoors after one or two of the episodes . After doing this cycle thing of getting cold adjusted . In and out of warm cars into cold air and back into warm stores, and back out to the car . And I was taking my coat off ..After just a few times of doing this . ( Just warming up alittle past cold soaked for a 1/2 hour . And my endurance for the outside cold goes up it seemed.. but as always Your Mileage may vary

Yeah. The title is BS clickbait of the worst kind.

If the story were about ...something bad that is about to happen...that was previously unknown. Then THAT would be "bone chilling".

Like "astronomers just discovered an asteroid in the sky that will hit Earth and wipe all life on earth... in five years".

But the story is about endemic diseases or conditions that have already been around forever...and its saying "that we now have a new explanation for this stuff that always existed that we didnt have before". So it doesnt contain anything scary (ergo nothing "bone chilling").

Not that it doesnt have content that isnt interesting or relevant.

^ Agreed. Click bate-y for sure. I'm not hating though. It got my attention and I've been diggin on the Denisovans again lately, so this is right up my alley.
