Covid has been curtailed without the need for these apps (in all the places that opened up). Why do people insist on pushing them to people? There is no evidence they work, even when with months of testing. No matter how anonymized you try

Another sign of the tech regression is that we don't have a robust alternative that does the things Flash did. No easy-to-use and publish editor, no robust video/audio streaming server/client combo. Today's HTML alternat

whiny comments whenever one more study like this comes out. This is a trend that is well known and discussed for at least 10 years. A french novelist wrote about it 25 years ago: the free sexual market leads to inequality , which means pau
