Ah yes, the old semantics game :).

What wasn't there to know? Locking back down after vaccine availability was moving the goalposts. Hospitals weren't even overwhelmed at the time. The EUA was approved because vaccine efficacy had been clearly demonstrated.

Which makes the lockdown/mandates even more damning to me. Back when the vaccines were available, California removed the mask mandate and then quickly put it back in place. It seems quite obvious (even at the time) that they should&#x2

Worth noting that plenty of studies demonstrate the exact opposite: Natural Immunity is superior and durable. Vaccine effectiveness largely wanes after 4-5 months. Even the CDC has acknowledged this. https://www.medrxiv.org/

Vinay Prasad has been a beacon of rationality in the tribal quagmire that is COVID discourse.

Except a lot of conspiracy theories aren’t conspiracies any more. The vaccine is not 100% effective? Vaccinated can spread Covid? The virus is endemic and 90%+ vaxx rate won’t change that? All misinformation a year ago and reality today. Bu

With Covid we’ve witnessed the neoliberal dystopia blossom. Government and big tech is fully united, with any mild free speech aspirations beaten out via threats of regulation. Attempts to silence Joe Rogan is just another nail in that coff

Strong disagree. I've made it my policy to never work with a recruiter that isn't affiliated with the company they're hiring for. Recruiting farms like Cyber Recruiters (yuck) will do everything in their power to waste your t

To quote another Substack author: If these people had been covering Robert McNamara we’d still be in Vietnam. The idea that people are only allowed to consume approved ideas is deeply disturbing and authoritarian. If someone is publishing t

In the past people would hold themselves to a high standard and celebrate triumph over adversity. Today people are fetishizing this “neurodivergent” psychosis and it’s downright weird. This person could absolutely sit still if they every bo

It’s a zoom call. Autistic people are capable of basic discipline. They’re clearly not medically disabled.

That’s image search. Try searching for this company: https://fakemaskworldwide.com/all-products/ There’s others like it that are also censored. First result for “Fake face masks” on DuckDuckGo.

Oh my god stop that person from wobbling in their chair.

I was trying to find those “fake face masks” just so someone knew what I was talking about, and apparently they were all deplatformed from Google searches. I didn’t want to buy one, just reference it. But nada. Found it on DuckDuckGo and it

Rather dismissive. The Keto subreddit is overflowing with success stories, to the point that they’re spammy. Keto is a resounding weight loss success.

The idea that you need to mutilate and medicate away your dysphoria will hopefully be regarded the same way we look at 20th century lobotomies. Your body cannot be engineered into the opposite sex.

How else do they decide? They’re doing a behavioral round, system design, manager interview, etc. But being able to implement, traverse, and analyze complex data structures and apply them to a problem is essential. There’s a class of delusi

Better advice: Leetcode is easy as shit. Suck up your pride and be good at it. You’ll rake in money getting companies to fight over you. I had a $670k offer that’s appreciated to $1m/yr. The company I joined didn’t ask LC, but it still

I'd set up a 1:1 to discuss strategies for falling through the cracks yourself. I had a co-worker at Google who would go fishing in the middle of the day, and that was before the pandemic. Sweet gig.

Did they really just reference COVID-19 as a model for climate scientists to follow? Yet another “crazy” conspiracy theory that’s going to go mainstream.

Unless you’re elderly or have health issues, Covid fatality rate was already very, very low. Therapeutics make that even better.

With a minuscule fatality rate at this point, all these measures seem like a massive waste of energy and resources. Masks, vaccines, dividers, hand sanitizer… none of it actually stops transmission. Spare everyone from this godawful ceremon

The silencing of speech during the pandemic has been absolutely chilling. Even if people are wrong, let them be wrong.
