What I saw was this guy flatly asserting that a socialist revolution is coming, I thought at first he was talking about Bernie Sanders, and where there should be a punchline there is no punchline. Then everyone gives an awkward and half-coc

Right but he basically asserted to everyone that a socialist revolution is coming to wipe them out. Is there something I don’t know? Should I be getting ready for this?

What were you talking about with the socialist revolution?

I’m not even sure if this would parse as legitimate English. What? And in response to your other recent comment, my entire family has been “consumed” (you idiot) by one disease or another. I am the only one left. Nobody was hysteric when th

My friend, take the number of people who end up dying after herd immunity and compare it to the population that it infected. If it’s more than a drop in the proverbial bucket, then please excuse me.

That final tally of bodies is a drop in the bucket of 7 billion, as I have already pointed out.

It is worse for sure. I was stuck in a hotel for the past two months so all I did was watch cnn. It was amazing to see the sentiment of the language on cnn actually become politically neutral as the disease spread in the US. That was when i

I’m talking about the death toll at the end of the day, not the current death toll. I’m talking about the likely maximum number to ever be infected (roughly herd immunity number) multiplied by the percentage of people that the virus kills.

Actually the “flu bro” crowd has some really good points. For me, it’s impossible to ignore the inconsistency. Imagine tens of thousands of people standing before you before they perish gruesomely. These people who died of preventable thing

I’ve visited almost every state at least briefly. In the past couple months I visited El Paso, New Orleans, Huntsville, Lincoln and Omaha, Wichita and Des Moines. Des Moines was the best by a mile.

Nope. I spent the last year looking to do this and it’s not as simple as you say. If you buy a plot in the middle of Arizona or something, you might be responsible for road upkeep or charged for other things. And you still have to pay taxes

The human brain doesn’t change on a human timescale. Where there is variability there is natural selection. Do you think the world will select for friendliness?

The inflammation and damage is seen in traditional arrays that are large and rigid. A thread with low enough moment of inertia will likely not cause as much damage. And the damage is only important if you put the electrodes in an important

Elon musk said on stage that they had put it in a monkey and had the monkey move a cursor with it. I’ve been following musk very closely since 2010 and he’s never blatantly lied so I think this will not be the first time. He has made errors

How do you place electrodes without metal filaments? It’s been validated in monkeys.

No, actually high density electrode implants are right around the corner. Watch the neuralink press event.

But prove that this matters. How many people are in that group? Is it not possible to quarantine the workers?

The answer seems so obvious. Do a hard, air tight quarantine of people of advanced age. People who are borderline or sick are told to stay inside. Encourage the rest of society to go about business as usual. Provide government support for a

If you just measure the total amount of debt in the world, it’s very large even historically. I read a great article about it by the world bank. It’s been obvious for years that creditors are not very discerning. I think juicero and theran
