"Look at what you made me do" No, you never had any moral backbone and you are just looking at the first excuse to behave like the psycho you have always been. The only other possible explanation is that you are stuck at the psych

As others will point out, satellites are insured against the risk of destruction during launches - just not by launch companies, but by third-party insurers, which factor in the success rate of launch companies. So no, it is not a "mar

People who want to learn chemistry from first principles in a fun way should read Jules Verne 's "Mysterious Island" or, in manga or anime , "Dr Stone". Lots of fun.

You can't eat meat without butchering the animal. You can do a scientific study without torturing the animal - if you have snow alternative, please explain clearly why, why you study is important enough, and convince the ethics board.

I happened recently with my girlfriend and I after watching The boy and the Heron , the last Miyazaki. I was disoriented, trying to make heads or tails of what I just saw, and she was completely happy of all the poetry and symbolism she ju

This is completely false. Go back to getting real data. "For Social Security, for example, administrative overhead is about 0.5% of total spending." https://www.axios.com/2024/11/20/government-spendi

"Light of Other Days"/"Other Days, Other Eyes" by Bob Shaw is much closer - and poignant - take on that idea.

That procedure (I guess you speak about fit tests, especially with a dust of saccharin) is important when you need to be 100% sure to be protected, such a dealing with with ebola or equivalent; but even a badly fitted mask will reduce the i

Not only infection disease science is robust with humans, but it is also a veterinary science. And with livestock outnumbering humans and being a huge industry where every dollar counts, we have a good idea on the efficiency of e.g. vacci

Actual medical science, down to biochemistry. Look up the replication crisis - if not outright fraud - in Alzheimer research, as an outstanding recent example.

Wrong analysis. We have robust science about climate change for decades now and yet it is pushed against all the time . Also, we don't relitigate everything all the time. E.g. is germ theory a "dogmatic truth" for you? Scien

Another case of a wide gap between what people say they want and what they actually want - but will never admit. By which I mean Americans say they want scientists to be more humble, and then in practice trust more aggressive loudmouthed cr
