So apparently there's a new formula for converting from dog years into human years. https://www.sciencemag.org/.../here-s-better-way-convert...
The equation is H = 16*ln(D) +31, where D is the dog's age and H is the corresponding human age. Does it work?

(short thread, 1/5)
According to the above, at the moment of birth (when dog age = 0), a dog is *negative infinity* human years old. That would imply all dogs are immortal, which is wrong.

2/5
At 1 day old, the dog is *negative* 65 in human years. Wrong again.

3/5
The human age of 100 years corresponds to 74 years old for a dog. Lots of humans live to 100. No dog have ever got to be 74; wrong again.

4/5
Maybe it's applicable in some limited range? Certainly not applicable for the human lifespan of 0 to 100.
