The same metastudy says hand washing isn’t statistically significant in stopping pandemic flu spread, but is careful to note that doesn’t mean it’s ok not to wash your hands. There are many other diseases which are prevented by washing your

I don’t think it’s “no true scotsman” when someone is saying they aren’t scot and that they’ve never been within 1000 miles of Scotland.

Is this satire? You don’t see a difference between secret police disappearing political dissidents, and Twitter telling you to sell your racism somewhere else?

Not sure when HN took such a turn to the conspiratorial. The signal to noise ratio is getting really low these days, might finally be time to give up on this site, because dang seems uninterested in the problem.

It’s pretty incredible how hard the recommendation algorithm is trying to make me become right wing. It must assume I am because of my interests and watch history. Not interested, YT.

I sympathize. I’d rather live in a closet myself than share a room with someone else. I’m someone who finds that old Hong Kong city monstrosity fascinating and would probably enjoy living in it, in a cyberpunk way. But I wouldn’t design a d

I wouldn’t describe “you’ll get used to lack of windows” as rave reviews. It looks suspiciously like the reviews were farmed out, the english is atrocious and the reviews are very generic.

Yes. Except it looks like he was thinking “how can I make student housing intolerable” and stopped there, instead of inverting it.

I believe we are approaching a top. A lot of otherwise-undesirable places to live have doubled and tripled in price recently (while homes in desirable cities haven't moved much at all), fueled by COVID-19 and remote work spiking demand

Car crashes aren’t contagious. COVID-19 presents a far higher risk for heart inflammation than the vaccine. But you know that when you posit it’s fine to spread COVID-19 because it only kills old people.

The choice actually isn’t tough at all if you listen to your doctor instead of social media.

It seems HN is quite eager to upvote vaccine skepticism of all kinds. It could provide quite the distorted view of reality if I were to trust HN karma over the near-universal medical scientific consensus (FDA approving vaccines for 5-11 yea

Archer is also the main hero protagonist of the incredibly popular (globally) and sprawling Fate series, which you should also check out, starting with Fate/Stay Night.

Power usage doesn’t scale linearly, at all. Mobile Ryzens are very competitive with the M1 watt for watt (trading blows with Ryzen winning sometimes). Seems you’ve fallen for Apple marketing again.

okay, i guess in my mind I automatically translate “coming apart at those speeds” to “the microstructure stretches to a degree it’s impossible to read/write to the drives”. Nothing catastrophic.

The bug that allowed that to happen has essentially been patched. (Risk analysis that didn’t take into account Robinhood giving immediate margin to any rando that signs up). Robinhood very nearly melted down, Lehman Brothers style.
