The same can be said about humans. An enormous amount of heat is no longer hitting the ground due to man-made structures in general, way more than dedicated solar farms. Very likely putting solar on roofs is more beneficial than letting it

That honestly just sounds like mental self-flagellation done to inflate the ego and feel superior.

Likely the crypto methods would evolve well before the hardware caught up. It's unlikely that suddenly out of the blue someone would show up with a 13M qubit quantum computer that could crack all wallets.

It's funny how susceptible Americans are to medical misinformation. The FDA is a necessity.

You're kind of citing the successes only here, not the massive number of failures along the way. Nor did I state that an entrepreneur couldn't be a success, more that needing to be profitable could impeded desires to experiment or

The US heavily invests in public research. The NIH budget is larger than all US billionaire's philanthropic donations combined. Public funding has great ability to affect change and discover. "Communists are scary" is a poor

Are you saying it was eliminated in 1800 or in the 1800s? Do you have sources you can cite that makes the case that US "free market" agriculture eliminated famine? Farming in the 1800s was not free of exploitative practices such a

Haber process was developed while Fritz Haber was at University of Karlsruhe, a public research university. BASF was hesitant to invest in it, but luckily employee/engineer(not exactly an entrepreneur) Carl Bosch was there to convince

It definitely could work if people felt more secure in taking the leap, because it wouldn't mean financial ruin and destitution for themselves or their family. Maybe even social grant opportunities to encourage it, instead trying to ta

A lot of our biggest and most transformative "successes" have come at a price, and so do some of the biggest failure. I think the jury is out on net gain.

Ehh, I'd rather society focus on stable foundations that allow for thinking, tinkering and inventions, rather than moonshot attempts at getting rich that destroy you if they fail.

I am pretty sure that 5.0 128GB/sec figure is also total bidirectional bandwidth with each direction being approximately 64GB/sec

Maybe they are considering both directions, i.e. 128GB/sec full duplex = 256GB/sec total bandwidth. Kinda cheeky. https://pcisig.com/blog/pcie%C2%AE-60-specification-released... > a maximum bidirectional

A 20-year-old car still has computers in it. 3G is 20 years old as well.

Please provide reputable sources showing "CDC was bullshitting when they said 90% of ICU patients are unvaxxed". I am not even sure CDC was directly making such claims and some of the 90% figures were directly from regional hospit

There is already a differentiation. Your employer would still need to accommodate your vaccine allergy/contradiction, so long as there is medical documentation backing your claim. You would then go into weekly testing protocol if you n

If the obese and overweight remain fully vaccinated w/ boosters, it's unlikely they'll end up in the hospital taking away hospital beds. The unvaccinated in general are the biggest issue.

I didn't say you said that, but looking at study summaries that state things like "high-dose cholecalciferol supplementation led to SARS-CoV-2 RNA negative status" is why I mentioned "cure".

I don't think I'd classify any of those studies as "very strong evidence". Lots of studies in many different environments(some uncontrollable) measuring different things at different dosages. It doesn't exactly resu

We should consider mandates in cases of severe disease outbreaks, so a bad flu season could see such mandates, especially if healthcare resources were being strained. At the moment mandates are a compromise due to lack of ability to ensure

It's not hard. I don't know why you wrote all these unrelated questions. This is simply about direct personal injury from COVID infection caused by those who took no mitigation steps to prevent harm to others(COVID specific harm).

No, it's not discrimination, it's triage and rationing of care. You act as if hospital resources are infinite and there aren't difficult logistical issues with expanding hospital capacity. Hospitals have already gone to extra

Surely they could re-open them, but they do cost NHS quite a bit of money to run.
