Very much so, night and day. I’ve been pretty much issue free for 2 years, except for PEM which means I have to avoid cardio. I don’t know how to fix that. Instead of cardio I eat healthy and lift weights. I was one of those gifted kids whi

Depends very much on the disease, for my specific type of brain fog from dysautonomia (via ME/CFS and hEDS) it may feel like a gradual and permanent degradation but it is largely completely reversible and when you know what you're

ME/CFS shows up as immune system dysfunction and for most people is likely downstream from dysautonomia. Given the huge overlap of people with long covid and hEDS, and that long covid presents as dysautonomia, the math likely works out

I think the x-ray machines can now be made much more sensitive so the dose could be vastly smaller. That said, it's a bit unnerving when someone tells you something is save and then goes and hides behind a lead lined booth - even for m

We can’t have people going around and killing other people, but we can’t have people going around and destroying property. It might sound noble to have this idea that we would always put life ahead of property but many of us have property v

Because it wasn't bad enough. Look at the fervor it's causing now - now imagine if it was worse. In politics it may seem like a good idea to create these time bombs because they can't imagine them going off but sometimes they

The worse it was the better it worked as a budget fudge and it could be included in projections and allow a budget neutral bill to be passed. And by being so bad it would be easier to reverse as fewer people would defend it. There was an at

There could be a distinction between creating new value (greenfield), and maintaining existing value (brownfield). Most of my work is green field and I do consider it to be a capital asset, it's sweat equity as I don't pay myself,

For many assets, like real estate, there are liquid markets with market prices. There are a number of US states that already tax based on real estate value, you can dispute the assessed value but that impacts other things like insured value

It stems from the difference in treatment of capital gains and income. Either way it’s deductible, the difference being when it is deductible and how much tax is saved. Capital deductions are typically done later since they require a taxabl

I wouldn’t use ‘harm’ as the moral delineator, depending on the context it’s very much ok to do harm. It isn’t sufficient context on its own. I think it’s the attempt to be moral by a simplistic definition of ‘doing no harm’ that leads to t
