This happened to me once, and it ended up taking about 6 weeks before they back got to me. It was a similar “just wait” response the whole time until then. It turned out to be a very simple change they wanted, but because of the nature of t

18 cases. I'm not sure I understand your point about breakthrough infections in other groups; do you mean that a significant percentage of vaccinated individuals are getting infected, compared to unvaccinated individuals?

No, there were plenty of cases in the control group, it's just that there were zero cases in the experimental group. So they know it's very effective, but they were unable to measure the breakthrough infection rate.

At current difficulty, 2 hashes/second gives about 614 trillion years to find one block. Not quite the heat death of the universe, but wikipedia says all stars in the universe will have exhausted their fuel.

We all have different tastes, I guess. Humarsúpa, kjötsúpa, and plokkfiskur are some of the most delicious things I've ever tasted.

One thing would be to try to measure entropy in a different way, e.g. run gzip on it. Right now FJFJFJFJ has the same entropy as FJGJFJGJ.
