This fact makes the stat from the article all the more alarming. > In 1970, only nine countries had faced severe dengue outbreaks, now there are up to 400 million infections a year. It amazes me to think of how relatively small the team

We don’t know that there is no downside which is why these vaccines were approved via Emergency Use Authorization. At the very least I and several people I know were absolutely flattened by the vaccines for a day or two. One guy I know had

It doesn’t presume that it had to , it just conjectures that it is either more likely or not significantly less likely than the scenarios you listed. We can’t rule it out, ie. we only have evidence right now to try to make a determination

It’s covered in the article and it’s called RaTG13 and no one can get a straight answer on where it was acquired or when. However independent researchers found it is identical to a virus previously known as RaBtCoV/4991 that made sever

Interesting to note that they started US manufacturing with the Librem Key[1] in 2019 which I imagine has a much lower total labor component than a full phone. Paying double the price for an under specced product is a lot easier to justify

I'd never visited the site but it looks very nicely executed, especially at creating a consistent vibe out of user-uploaded photos, which isn't easy. A neat thing about businesses like this is that it takes a skillset that a lot o

It’s interesting that your family member is German. When my wife and I lived there it was quite an adjustment from $10 500 ct bottles of ibuprofen to €1 per dose blister packs of 12 that always came with a stern question from the pharmacist

No sure about your state but I’ve known people in Canada who avoided it by doing core subjects via correspondence programs. It freed up time for them to pursue other interests or work. It didn’t seem to be a barrier to them getting into any

The addition of UWB to phones was another prime example of this. It makes airdrop moderately easier now, big deal, but locating objects accurately in space with high resolution is a huge problem for AR, and with airtags Apple will have way

AirPods must outsell AirPod Pros by what, 100 to 1? Each AirPod weighs only 4g.

I think people underestimate how big of a factor weight is going to be when it comes to face wearables. Apple’s lead in terms of performance/watt is so massive at this point, they’re going to have a few years where no other AR solution

It's an interesting question because there has been a dominant narrative that back when there were only 3 channels and everyone trusted what Walter Cronkite said there was a lot more consensus. That was true in the sense that centre-le

That you’re pulling up a 20 year old example might suggest that it’s the exception that proves the rule. It doesn’t sound like either of us really knows enough to be making sweeping claims, and my objections are to that sort of thinking as
