Yes. Basically none. The vaccines have been given to almost a billion people. And side effects have been tracked. How can we find this number? We already have it. If there was anything dangerous within even 3 orders of magnitude of those th

for all the talk of "vaccine passports", not a single state has done it. Biden said he wasnt going to do it months ago. Not a single country has done it in all of the earth. if I was so worried about such a thing i might start to

You're indirectly admitting that I'm right. The anti vaccine crowd is desperate for a non vaccine cure, because the vaccine is so incredibly effective their beliefs fall apart otherwise

The vaccines are a miracle drug. Less than one in a million people that have gotten both doses of mRNA vaccines have died of COVID. It's one of the biggest infectious disease success stories since the invention of penicillin

Yes. Anybody trying to rationalize not getting one of the extremely effective vaccines will be grasping at straws for any other effective treatment. It's a natural outcome. The vaccines are as effective as the one that eliminated small

We already have a drug that's 99% effective at keeping you out out hospital. And it's only a single/double dose. It's the COVID vaccine. Any other treatment is basically unnecessary at this point because COVID deaths in

Many people pushing Ivermectin have a vested interest in proving the vaccines are unnecessary. It may work, but that's why you get recommendations for "vaccine made me magnetic" and other garbage like that whenever you search

Eh true. And it's not disdain, those companies are great for what they do. The guy above just implied they sucked, which isn't the case. They're great for their target market

I've had bad experiences with counterfeit components on AliExpress. It's rare to get anything real and unused.

SparkFun and Adafruit are great, but they're for casuals. If you're building breadboard prototypes there's nothing better than Digikey and Mouser.

The atmosphere at low altitude burns off tons of energy. I don't think we'll ever achieve ballistic launch from earth surface, but that's just my opinion :)

One day, Rust needs a GC. Reference counting is a just crappy GC. Modern GC can perform better than this so Rust is actually hurting its own performance by not having one. A good GC would make heavily concurrent apps much easier to build wi

LLVM has built in hooks for GC, used by Azul's Zing JVM JIT compiler and perhaps Safari's LLVM JS JIT. I'm not sure if the GC integration is tied to JIT support or not. I think it's mostly related to insertion of safepoi

In the future, we may have better ways of escaping earth than our brute force rockets. If we can use our atmosphere as oxidizer, like planes do, we could get to orbit with far better mass fraction. And far less fuel. Closer to a normal plan

Agreed. For all the problems with ERCOT, Texas does have an astoundingly high penetration of renewable sources that makes programs like this extremely useful. High renewable penetration causes grid stability issues, but not for the reasons

I got an Aeron and I don't like it. Mesh chairs aren't as cushioned, Aeron included. You can easily feel the border between mesh and frame and it gets painful after sitting for hours. I dont buy that ergonomic chairs are any bette

I left a bad review for one of these company's products on Amazon a while back because it caught fire when plugged in. Somehow they got my email address and keep sending me vaguely threatening untraceable emails to "reconsider&quo

Excursion is related to frequency. A sure way to blow most up is turn bass to the max. Some speakers have bandpass filters. Cheap ones usually don't

I may be typical but it's nuts. Send your secret police to harass your critics whenever an important date is coming up.

The tech giants are scum. They either look the other way or hire proxies to do their dirty work like the mob. I was tangentially involved in a project for one of them that was so shady everyone "read in" to the project was under N

Sideloading is always panned under the guise of security. It's all bs. * If the devices were secure enough, we could run untrusted code with no consequences. Like practically every website on the planet * If side loading was so dangero

Lots of conjecture and inferences made from the study with no backing evidence. Implying flu deaths are correlated with vaccination, when there's no data about overall flu numbers during that time. Fear mongering about spike proteins.

In the US I frequently see this: Guy hired as CEO Guy gets such absurd compensation he becomes a near billionaire and major stockholder after ~5 years. Guy is elected to the board for his amazing credentials (billionaire major stockholder)

Yes. I was wrong. But there's also not conspiracy which is what I was trying to rationalize. There's so much BS on the internet these days that are the modern day versions of astrology. Trying to find patterns in randomness to jus

Where does it say that? I've never seen it. And if it's required, does it have to be on this list? I don't see why it matters if vaccine is on some random list or not. How is it a lie if they have to report adverse effects an

It's really not. It's like mandatory reporting for diseases like whooping cough and west Nile virus. Something only gets on the list if it has known risks. Afraid of what data? Should we start collecting data on every time anyone

They used to hang people for heresy, and they still do in some countries. I think "people will be upset with me" is pretty mild viewed in a historical lens

A vaccine that cant replicate is as risky as one thats a weakened version of the live virus? Or an injection of the toxin that causes symptoms? Not every vaccine is on this list you know. Only the ones deemed risky. They haven't deemed
