There needs to be some kind of analysis to determine whether they have causality flipped- do they have these long term health problems because of severe COVID or did they get severe COVID due to these long term health problems?

Is internet of things useful for anything except being a major security vulnerability you could trick an enemy into installing?

Eh, I don’t think this is true. People want to discredit Shockley because he was a big racist, but he was a legitimate scientist. PBS does this kind of smear to a lot of people who were morally questionable, like Henry Ford.

I make my experimental apparatus. I send an electron through a double slit. Hilbert space tells me it goes through both, and keeps going through both for all eternity. I only see one flash. The whole of the electron is found to have hit tha

the problem with wanting to write biographies of failures is the same problem with publishing negative results in science: there are too many failures, and too many ways to fail. It's like entropy - there are so many ways to do somethi

Senolytics cause the lysis of senescent cells- something else. So unlikely they would directly contribute here.

You actually can't remove all the energy from a quantum harmonic oscillator, 1/2 hbar omega will be in it even in the ground state.

I consistently have intelligent discussions on HN. Disagreement is tolerated and hashed out. This does NOT happen on Reddit now. Reddit is unambiguously worse in that aspect.

WSB is one of the last interesting places on Reddit that shows up on the front page. I think that's because they've stayed above the political fray that has consumed the rest of Reddit. That said, you are wrong to suggest that we
