This guy is not the creator of mRNA vaccines, he’s just a guy who did something slightly related with mRNA forty years ago, and is now trying to ride the wave to money. I think it’s fair to say the vaccine was rushed, but that’s because we

It’s not a grey area, it devalues the degree for everyone and betrays you as a fundamentally dishonest and low value person.

Oh for fucks sake. This is what, Amazon’s third chance at the trough? At what point is it cheating? Disclosure: long MSFT.

This is super cool, so I immediately attempted to try it out. Unfortunately, the Python package seriate is broken due to an upgrade in its dependency ortools. The update was so long ago a functional version is not available on pypi anymore.

“Not that the authorities will tell you” -> editorial in THE WALL STREET JOURNAL. You cannot make this shit up.

Sic semper tyrannis. Didn’t even have the guts to be a tyrant. Just an evil toady.

This is bad comedy. A 210-line-of-Python outlier remover is not a research advancement, it’s part of a grad student’s util file. Really reflects badly on everyone involved. It is partially explained that the work is published in Ergonomics,

That is an interesting proposal. I do have one autoimmune disease, that from reading the entire body of research literature is not known to cause a large majority of my symptoms. But I do hear that autoimmune diseases travel in herds… will

Yes, definitely. I will email you after work today. I have also been evaluated for a pheo with negative results - the sudden panic attacks out of nowhere seem to trigger this diagnostic pathway. I will try to reduce dietary tyrannies - that

That is a very interesting idea. The migraines do seem to be getting better with time, which would track that… but it’s been years!

No wheezing. I’ve had a full allergic workup and am negative to everything. No medicine to address the panic attacks - I have a beta blocker for if things get really bad but I try to avoid taking it and have only taken maybe three in the la

No sleep apnea, tried that one. No ME/CFS investigation done yet. Immunological seems very plausible. Dysautonomia seems like potentially a good fit. My feet are fine, so it can’t be SFSN, right? I’d love a recommendation for helpful n

In my case, it is a combination of persistence, a small number of excellent specialists who believe me, and willingness to spend tens of thousands of dollars.

Yes, and that’s not it. Unfortunately my constellation of symptoms does not seem to match any single entity. I have basically resigned myself to thinking that I may have an unusual genetic immunological or neurological defect. Think (this

This rings true. I have something wrong with me. I’ve spent many years of my life trying to figure out what it is. But never fully have - it’s sick, but it seems like most doctors operate under “you have symptoms, I order a few tests, they

I really can’t understand this reasoning. Google is part of the reason broadband is bad in the US, because they tried to fix it by competing with the telecoms? This like saying, a person has a gun pointed at your head, it’s really your faul

1.5 degrees C is 2.7 degrees F - the only thing you missed is that this is a difference, not an absolute temperature. Suppose C to F is 1.8*c+32=f. Take two values for c, x and y. Then: (1.8x+32)-(1.8y+32)=1.8(x-y)

I used to play competitive multiplayer games, including one game that was about controlling resource points. It could get very intense, but it taught me an extremely important lesson: if you spend all your time playing defense, no matter ho

You know what I find gross and ableist? Using people like me as a tool to argue against the development of treatments that could help us. That is what you’re doing. You are so concerned with the suffering of animals that you are discarding

Hi, not using a throwaway so you know I’m sincere. As someone with a serious and currently incurable disability, I would support testing on one hundred billion non-human primates if it gave me a 5% chance of a cure. I’m sure you’ll find peo

I learned from my best colleagues: success is about trust. Nothing pays better dividends than being humble, being right a lot, and doing good work. This builds allies and allies build careers. I learned from my worst colleagues: don’t assum

I like this piece, even though it’s pushing a message. I think about this a lot. Every day I go to work. The men and women I work with don’t look like the sleek 23-year-old product managers that adorn the promotional material, or the immacu

What happened in the 1990s in Britain?

What you are saying is dangerous. We had a serious set of exactly these transmission events in Britain only a few decades ago. Clearly the risk is not infinitesimal.

It’s very important that we never take a stand for the principles that make America a shining city on the hill for hundreds of millions of people, and instead cravenly cowtow to dictators and refuse to recognize genocide when it’s political

Do you live in Silicon Valley? Nice homes cannot be chosen close to work. All homes in the South Bay that aren’t literally falling down are multi-million-dollar. I personally know people who bought a $2.5m home with a rat infestation.
