I am sharing these two links on the danger of supplements. I am inclined to believe they are at best useless and probably harmful. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20161208-why-vitamin-supp... https:/&#x2F

You’re assuming that leaders of these countries are largely benevolent. They’re optimizing for their own interests. Bringing manufacturing into these countries will only introduce new competitors to their rule over time. Think of Saudi for

I am afraid that severe climate change might lead to a future with fewer or no borders. Not having borders isn't necessarily going to be great. Nationalism will not go away as long as there are humans. We may have different labels for

I just ran this on a Fedora machine and connected to Windows using rdesktop. It works and it's amazing. I like it. The Internet will surely be confused today with a surge of traffic from Internet Explorer 5. Incidentally, google.com st

I don't trust the first release or the first disclosure. I expect Robinhood in the next few days to disclose that the exposure was wider and more serious than initially thought. It also seems that they don't encrypt social securit

Off-topic, on a reasonably fast connection on a machine with Intel i7 and 16 GB of RAM, this page loads slowly and scrolling is painfully slow and not smooth. No ad blocker because this is a new machine and new setup. Of course, I will add
