What about young children? You have a handwavy method to get a toddler to wear silicone earplugs for 8 hours a night? Judging by your post history, you seem to be more interested in stirring up shit than actually contributing to the discuss

The game is points-based, "genius rank" means something like 80% of the possible points have been found. https://i.imgur.com/dw244XL.png You can't actually complete the game without paying. I think it's

No... please don't put words in my mouth. Social class is somewhat related to color in SEA, but not to that extent.

Americans have managed to drag vaccines into their culture wars. It's one thing to say that vaccines cause autism, or make your sperm into zombie sperm. Stupid, but fundamentally something I can understand. "Wolk [sic] folk"

My experience in SEA in general and Bali specifically (as a Malaysian), prices are not simply a matter of speaking the language. Vendors often charge based literally on your social class/status.

For now, and I think for the next several years at least, if you can afford to purchase and drive a headset which comfortably replaces multiple monitors, you likely already have the space and resources to use multiple monitors already. I s

Ramen (and Japanese-style breads, among other dishes) were popularized during and after the American occupation, in which American wheat flooded the Japanese market in unprecedented quantities. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&

It may be that 1984 was inspired in part by real-life events. But to say anything is "straight out of 1984" is absurd on the face of it. 1984 is not a documentary, it is one non-linguist's politically-charged fictional novel

What science in particular is not getting done now, due to the replacement of the term race in scientific papers? Be specific. You seem deeply passionate about this issue, so I'm sure you have plenty of examples.

If "hey it probably won't kill them" is your standard for medical treatments, you shouldn't be commenting about medical treatments. Ivermectin is prescribed (not proscribed) mostly for treating parasitic infection. Usin

This is an interesting take. What "very useful research" is being blocked by which IRBs? FWIW, the author of the essay at the link you provided seems deeply ignorant of why IRBs exist. "Mere resident doctors weren’t allowed t

I have contracted with several midsize B2B outfits who hit low-to-mid 6 figure USD billing per month for AWS. Surely the biggest players are spending millions per month. At that point, you'd expect Amazon to be much more accommodatin

The claim that Singapore, a signatory of the 1971 Five Power Defence Agreement (along with Malaysia, UK, Australia and New Zealand) was "surrounded by hostile states" is absurd on its face. I can't really take the rest of th

In a large teaching hospital where I did some consulting work, a plurality of people at the hospital site were visitors (followed by staff, then patients). It is not surprising that hospitals feel empty when you remove most of the people i

Work pass holders can absolutely marry Singaporeans. It just takes an extra step. I know you're trying to portray Singapore in the worst possible light, but false claims are not necessary to do so.
