This is a new virus, _no one_ knows about the future. Data we have now could be biased toward an hidden variable we didn't figure out yet.

Did you look at the charts? If you didn't know there is a global epidemic, would you have been able to see it on these curves? In France and Italy, there were between 50000 and 60000 deaths per month in 2018 and 2019. If most of those

Even in Italy, the National Health Institute said that 88% of the declared "dead by covid19" had in fact at least 1 or 2 other pre-morbidities. If a 80 years old dies from heart attack and is tested positive by covid19, it will co

For the record, in March 2018, 58 000 people died in Italy. We will see how many died this March 2020 : http://demo.istat.it/index_e.html (see green section on the right, By Month) Also the following study from August 2019

I believe the contribution of this app is great. Maybe it will help some people think about the meaning of being anxious or depressed. By using this app, they may realize they are not actually depressed, or maybe they will not feel better a

How does intellectual property work in this case? Is there a probability that my idea will be "stolen" if I share it with this website?

Note that even if the WHO changed its recommendation, french doctors still recommend to _not_ take anti-inflammatory. Use paracetamol instead (but not more than usual). Maybe they didn't get the memo yet, I can't tell.

In France, during the yellow vest protest, there was a similar online crowd-founding for a boxer who did fight with a cop and was sentenced to pay a fine. From what I remember, with some crowd-funding platforms, it is against Terms Of Servi

I could be wrong, but the required note from the doctor isn't paternalism, it's (I think) related to how workplace insurances and the healthcare system work in Europe, requiring proof for everything. With the epidemy, remote consu

It's only my own opinion, but I believe there is too much centralization of national, international and diplomatic institutions inside the City of Paris. I am _for_ more decentralization of businesses and powers across the Region of Pa

I believe the parent is asking for more granularity in browsers permissions in general. On Firefox, permission granularity is a bit lagging behind other platforms, for example Android (which is already not perfect/too permissive)

I'm not sure why you are downvoted. House pricing clearly shows that the City of Paris is a gravity center, which leads to many of the current traffic and pollution problems. Maybe a decentralization of France's institutions, powe

Ctrl+f shows no mention of the study of post-processing quantization nor pruning on their tampered dataset. Overall, I instinctively think that one can create an NN architecture that is not affected, or even easily detect the tampered pictu

After looking at the doc, it seems Protonmail uses GPG and computes the keys on the client device. (So I was wrong in my reply earlier). However, when you send an unencrypted email with Protonmail, they claim that they encrypt the email at
