I still believe "100% vaccination" policies won't survive this winter's flu-season. But let's see if they can convince people that endless boosters will take us anywhere. I still have no idea what's the long-te

Wasn't this known from day 1? COVID-19 vaccines were never going to give us sterilizing immunity. I still don't understand what's the long term plan in countries that are trying to reach 100% vaccination rate, but yeah, there

Looks like it needs a drivers license to register so I doubt it will attract many annonymous twitter people and young people in general, but it could make a dent on the Facebook boomer generation and older "deplorable"-americans i

I don't understand the objection? In this case "increase" refers to new cases per one million people in a certain period of time. How else would you measure it?

It's an essay with a very memorable beginning too. >“The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.” Still not as nice as Nick Land's Meltdown: >[[ ]] The story goes like this: Earth

Just google something like "having children" and skim the results. For me I get, from the first articles appearing: - "Mothers who regret having children are speaking up" - "The Two Reasons Parents Regret Having Kid

It's probably all the anti-natalist propaganda. Well, at the end of the day anti-natalism is a problem that solves itself, populations that are inmune to those memes will thrive, and others will disappear.

Surprise, the whistleblower was a part of a team that censored a true story for ideological reasons while at Facebook: https://thepostmillennial.com/revealed-facebook-whistleblowe...

Well, it's suspicious that the whistle-blower just wants to prop-up the pro-censorship views that the government already wants to push forward. Too convenient. On the other side the mainstream social media sites are a dead end, so the

Well, that sounds a bit extreme. I just see generalized policies of degrowth and basically destruction of the middle-class (whatever that means) everywhere in the western world: - Local lockdowns rather than closing borders in time for the

Current science seems like a real mess of wrong incentives living from past times prestige and being used as a opinion-laundering scheme in the worst cases. I don't really trust any "studies" anymore unless they are successfu

I didn't quite understand how those API "migrations" get exactly applied and at which point. Is it in the client or the server? If it's in the client, does it require using a specific library or framework?

The bad thing about Mastodon is that you don't own your handle and your data unless you run your own instance. Maybe it could have a crytographic addon where you own handle and data cryptographically and can move it to a new server as

The difficult part is replacing the comment section and the network dynamics that make those sites grow. I think all alternatives to youtube fail because of the dead comment sections. Not sure if there would be some way of creating distribu

That would only be an analogy if car accidents mutated to overcome seatbelts. Also car accidents can kill everybody, Covid not so much if you are young, have healthy lungs and are not overweight.

Seems more an acknowledgement that zero-Covid is never ever going to happen. At which point not sure if vaccinating outside of risk populations or to control hospitalizations if they are too high makes any sense.

Couldn't it have passed through the lab, to humans, without being modified? There's no clue about how that bat virus from a different region could have ended in Wuhan otherwise, and they were doing gain-of-function research with b

I think there is still a whole ecosystem of conspiracies, the only reason they look more homogeneous now is because 50% of the population of america is basically "out" now, there's no narrative that integrates them into the c

The lies and conspiracy theories were always there. The difference now is that there are lies and conspiracies in different directions rather than a consensus of lies and conspiracy theories. Of course it remains to be seen if it's pos
