Why even stop smoking if it does not stop 100% of all cases of cancer? The more people are vaccinated the less people will become infected and will be spread the virus at any time. The less people are spreaders the less breakthrough infecti

They may perceive themselves differently, but I don’t think US diplomats are very useful targets for a mysterious weapon.

by ashildr 5y ago
If Russia had a secret sci-fi weapon like this it would be very stupid (and completely useless) to waste it on US-diplomats. If it exists, it is likely is an unintended side effect. Either something is more toxic than expected, more contami

Covid19 already has well-known short- and mid-term downsides for >> 1% of grown-ups infected. The hard “downsides“ are so dangerous that we had trouble to properly treat the sick. BNT/Pfizer has so little short- and mid-term down

With that high number of young people dying of the flu back then you may say that the host mutated and became less susceptible to the original strain of the flu. Since SARS-CoV-2 seems to be especially dangerous for people after reproductiv

This vector has been opened for a while. Companies are not allowed to provide E2E encryption anymore, they have or will have (see EU) to scan every picture they host or transport for you.

Encryption does not help, Apple still is responsible. If Apple intends to let the user store photos in iCloud (or send by imessage) encrypted, they either have to keep the keys, so they can decrypt and scan the photos or or to keep the use

“other tech experts“ want to keep Apple from using End2End encryption so they have a reason why they don’t provide it to their customers. With Apple‘s approach Apple can only decrypt Data hosted with them if the (false) positives are over a

The coffee-analogy was such a perfect example for wasting time on irrelevant optimization that I didn’t read on. Even if the authors’ perspective in the rest the article may have been more useful, spending my time with other things felt li

Apple has been using a common charger from the first iPhone on, there never was an iPhone charger that was not USB. Back the other brands came with a different, proprietary charger with a fixed cable for each model. Apple changed the cab

Please add Germany to that list: [Excuse me I’m not convinced]( https://youtu.be/_k_QbpFl7RM ) That sentence is idiomatic now for many people I know. (WTF is wrong with my markdown here?)

ceasefire Thank you for finding a better word for “not angry” and for writing down the idea behind it. It’s the conscious, mutual decision to solve the problem later, knowing that sleeping safely together as a couple is more important.

This! We never went to bed angry in 20 years - if we were angry we always “made peace“ before going to bed so we could sleep - and wake up - assured of our love. Here you and us differ: If it‘s late we postpone finding a solution becaus

Sometimes it‘s like somebody is reading my brain. I was just considering to have a look into DNS to solve a particular problem with software-licensing / enforcement. It‘s still likely a wrong idea and not well thought out, but I‘m ev
