You nailed it. The amount of tech directors or VPs actively tweaking on coke or meth while interviewing me has been eye-opening. I remember one had an inch-long coke nail. Hah!

Don't forget all the sugar addicts out there. Honestly, I hear a lot of "failure of the government's mental health policy" takes out there. As a lifelong addict, and someone whose family, friends, neighboorhood, communi

For what it is worth. I disagree completely. Your programming in assembly in the 80s made you what you are today. I am actively in a hiring role, and interviewing seemingly constantly. I want the full job history. My team and I read the com

There was just a study published which proposed to show amphetamines of all kinds, actually decreased productivity, and significantly delayed time-to-resolution of cognitive problem solving tests...it also did show the people on the ampheta

Hmmm, copper is an essential trace nutrient found in the soil. Your body will not survive without it. As always, devil's in the details, but it is believed most humans are low in copper. Aluminum is a disaster for your body and the b

Still waiting on Centurylink (or whatever they rebranded to now) to start on their piece of that "bridge to the 21st century". Not holding breath. 3Mb/.5Mb, at a cool $50/month. :-O

Amazing: a giant (and informative) thread on markets, investing, and value with many asking the same question - "but what else are you going to invest in?" - and not a single mention of building soil, and in turn health, or even &

No doubt: majority of the southern US went to heatpumps with central air handlers 2-3 decades ago. Ducts are definitely not dead. Or, if they're dead, then they must be as dead as BSD. :-P

Some things to think about. I personally know of a friend who walked into a Dr. office in the "top hospital" in Chicago, described her symptoms, and the Dr. without making eye contact, or saying anything, pulled out his smartphone

That is a beautiful write up. Helpful indeed.

by daddylongstroke 5y ago
Fair enough. How do you/HN define "ideological battle" so I can have some frame of reference? I'm largely reporting on things I'm either seeing, experiencing, or that friends and family are seeing or experiencing.

I do mean IFR. I hope you understand that the CFR numbers you're quoting, are also speculative estimates. :-) Almost certainly the number of infections is vastly undercounted as recognized by CDC's footnotes on their Data Tra

My wife's grandmother while being treated for cancer last year, was literally taken by ambulance (god only knows why) from one side of the medical campus to a building on the other side (3 minute ride) for around $9K. This is Chicago,

Not locked up. My wife, and most of our friends are either RNs, MDs, PAs, etc. We've had COVID. Now my wife is dealing directly with people who are dealing with adverse reactions to the vaccines they took (many of them nurses and doc

This is the correct take. At this point, since we've already vaccinated the only control groups we had in the trials, we no longer can draw valuable conclusions. The only statistic that we should now rely on, in order to account for

All cause mortality in Sweden is flat and significantly lower than the last 20 years or so.

>But I think the point is that COVID really increases your chances of being admitted there in the first place. If you're in a certain age range, and have several comorbidities.

Why are the vaccinated so threatened by the non-vaccinated in Germany? Why the anger? Why the fear?

> San Francisco has had less than 1/3 as many deaths per capita as the US national average... What do you believe this comparison means? I'm not sure its saying much of anything. Perhaps you could come up with another similar

by daddylongstroke 5y ago
Like everything else, this is very relative to locality. You'd be shocked at how hard it is to find any service business (pick one: plumber, well work, electrician, tree removal, etc.) to even come out to do an estimate in my area.

by daddylongstroke 5y ago
Don't you think the +15% all-cause mortality is the "mass death" you would expect to see? Isn't it interesting that Pfizer originally publically under-reported all-cause-mortality numbers in March in the vaccinated grou

Apparently, the FDA itself already mandates this: FDA’s own regulations stipulates that the agency “is to make ‘immediately available’ all documents underlying licensure of a vaccine." But why would they want to (seemingly) hide some

by daddylongstroke 5y ago
I believe the FDA is already mandated by law to release this data, which is why the original lawsuit was filed. From a Reuters article on it: They also argue that Title 21, subchapter F of the FDA’s own regulations stipulates that the agenc

I don't understand the animus in replies to your post. It's as if people want to deny that people like myself heat our homes in the winter by blowing air over hot water in a heat-exchanger. We can and many do heat that water dur

Except for the flu apparently. The flu never kills. It's the pneumonia and heart failure.
