I can't imagine anyone disagreeing with 'equality-enhancing policies' which leads me to believe the entire article has confused equality with equity, an entirely different (and incompatible) concept.

Exactly. This story doesn't add up to me - too much of a non-sequitur to fire someone for simply pointing out an inconvenient truth.

Taiwan would be destroyed in an invasion, TSMC along with it. China would then have a de-facto monopoly on semiconductor manufacturing. This is why the manufacturing needs to diversify geographically.

Also not knowing anything about this topic, I'd assume it wasn't normal because we're talking about mass close to zero, and mass must be greater than zero.

Truth is just that which corresponds to or is a reflection of reality. Anyone who thinks otherwise is thinking too hard. The true nature of reality might be unknowable, but science is a means to move towards it.

December 2020, probably the alpha variant, no vaccination. No symptoms over than loss of taste. 6 months later I had blood antibody levels checked out of curiosity; 1 s.d. higher than average for a recovered person. 30's male.

The Deno WASI runtime doesn't run in a browser, it only runs in Demo. So this tiny mostly unimplemented API is still infinitely more useful to me than the Deno implementation.

You should be able to get UV B all year, but only between maybe 10am and 2pm (rough guess).

It's not that simple. The angle of the sun needs to be such that the UV B isn't absorbed by the atmosphere. I believe the dminder app can track this and account for other things like altitude.

I think you're off by an order of magnitude (5-6%) if you're referring to the risk of infection vs not wearing a basic, correctly worn surgical mask. And this is pre-omicron; omicron is far more transmissible. Happy to be correcte
