I was simply asking a question because this sentence >the third testing phase, which normally takes multiple years, hasn't started yet is apparently not correct. Only trying to enhance my knowledge of vaccine testing phases, I don&#

What do you mean by "third testing phase"? I think that phase III of the clinical trials is actually happening right now and is where these positive results come from.

Might be embedded YouTube Videos not working in a lot of cases. The correlation is there but the numbers are at least two magnitudes lower on those other services.

You can (and I propose you should) use Twitter with the chronological timeline feature enabled. It's why Twitter is usable for me while Facebook is not.

Similar to how "not every Trump Voter is a >>Proud Boy<<" not every Biden supporter is a yard-sign stealing communist. Actually the extremists are in the minority in both groups. If you start going down that road and b

I think he is not talking about the election in general but referencing the "fight" between the 538 model/Nate Silver vs. the Economist/Andre Gelman.

No, I mean a scenario where instead of hanging a mirror in your high-end designed bathroom you are actually using a monitor. I can already imagine the advertisements in a catalogue where you are checking out the weather or watching CNN whil

I just had a weird realization that we are probably actually only 10-20 years away from people starting to use a webcam monitor combination instead of mirrors as a mainstream (albeit high-end) option.

I personally know lobbyists and this is simply not what's happening, at least not in my home country in Europe. Lobbyists will mainly explain the industries standpoint towards new parliamentary initiatives and how it will impact them.

Almost all Lobbying is not bribery. Lobbying means using your resources to influence politicians by campaigning and meeting up with them. But there is no direct exchange of money, which would be bribery. Actually lobbying can be a useful pa

Thanks, that sounds very useful indeed! I had only heard about impressive download and upload speeds so far but this makes a lot of sense.

Very impressive technology: With those 4GB per second download speeds I can use up my entire month of data in 250 milliseconds. On a more serious note: what technology advancements will there be in the next 10-20 years that actually make 5G

Doesn't the premature nature and the ensuing criticism of the Obama peace prize show exactly how highly regarded the peace prize is? If the prize wasn't very prestigious people wouldn't care. Now you could argue that those &q

I'm not sure why you think that the two arguments are contradictory. Rights are always rights of private entities against the state. It's perfectly normal not to be bound by some right that you are at the same time claiming agains

If that's an intentional backdoor it's a very weird backdoor. Wouldn't you at least obfuscate things a little bit? Simply mixing up the characters in that string in some pre-planned order would be enough.

>the comment sounded like the emphasis was on stereotypes of the culture To be honest, that is also pretty weird, wandering into "wrong"-territory. At least if you are prescribing negative stereotypes to a culture.

I think you are misunderstanding OP. At least I assume that Zoho will not be able to change Google's policies, otherwise that would truly be outstanding customer service.
