I graduated in 2001, the dot com bust, took a year and a half to get a job, and that was partially based on a previous degree in biology. This advice is based on my experience from 20 years ago, so I hope it is still relevant. I was sending

Yes, they seem to have taken this as an approval of mRNA technology, despite the trials not actually being complete, skipping important parts (testing for cancers, and testing for where the vaccine ends up in the body). And basically ignori

I saw the exact opposite with COVID responses and if you are interested I can point you to plenty of data. I also saw massive censorship, Ursula Von Der Lyden talking about getting rid of the Nuermburg code, and talk of jailing people for &

4chan regularly exposes it, by trying to get it to write politically incorrect statements.

EUA mRNA shots should have a warning, and not legal immunity for the manufacturers.

That depends, it's like saying a software engineer is different from a programmer. Can be true, or it can just be a different term for the same type of thing.

I used to laugh at Americans for constantly ranting about freedom and guns. The last 3 years has shown me that it is something we should have valued in Europe.

I am fairly sure it has been used as evidence to get kids charged with terrorism, along with holding the wrong opinions (in the UK).

Watch the video I linked to, it contains a well designed study that gives good evidence in favor of that hypothesis. You won't though, will you?

The rates are significantly greater in the US than in Europe. (As are the number of vaccines on the schedule). Given that, you should be able to eliminate some of the reasons you suspect and be able to narrow it down. Any chance you can do

Absolute nonsense. 99.97% survival rate for under 70s. Here is the impact compared to other pandemics, completely insignificant. If it weren't for forced masks and the hysteria imposed by governments it would be completely unnoticeable

For pretending that covid is something other than a moderately bad flu, in order to push pretty much untested mRNA shots onto the population, the vast majority of whom didn't need it. Is it this month that the clinical trials end? I wi

You don't know that at all. There were no studies involving all the shots that kids in the US are getting together these days. You are in denial if you don't consider the correlation a possibility. Best take another booster and t

What do you think is causing the massive increase in autism seen in the US over the last few decades? I did buy the "better diagnosis" line, until I saw how much it had risen by. It's one in 50 in the US. It's lower in E

HSV 1 is neurodegnerative? First I heard of that, and considering that it affects the majority of the population whether they know it or not, I find this to be quite unlikely to be a serious problem.

Used to do a lot of Perl, which is a wonderful language for writing obfuscated code. If something is an advanced feature of the language and I felt the need to use it, I would ad a comment explaining what the code was doing.
