   yeah, when I went (and got Moderna), I saw many people (who booked the appointment) asking staff "Is it Pfizer" and leaving when the answer was No.

   at least here, in California, you can not chose which one you get when making the appointment or when arriving at the vaccination site. Also CSU and UC will require vaccinations for return to on-campus. (Though I'm not sure that they

   limiting energy use, for bitcoin or not, is a dead end. We should be incentivizing clean energy and penalizing dirty one. Carbon taxes/quotas would be a great start.

   My parents had to be in union (during USSR days). In their experience, unless you are a buddy of union leadership you got to go on vacation during worst times of the year to the worst (if any!) places only. You are also getting the crappies

   that’s literally what I did too and (not to brag but) I got on my country’s international math team and got free admission to university because of that. But how many were there? 10 at most. Edit: my point is that finding the right math clu

    yeah, try finding good “free” math club when kid is 6-7 y.o. And by the time there are actually viable free options the kids are already far behind. Preparing for tests are much cheaper than joining good clubs and/or preparing to write

    So there will be no “standard” tests (with all their pros and cons) but there still will be “essays”, and “extracurricular clubs/activities” preparing for which (and joining the clubs) are far more expensive.

    we are in a climate crisis and wind/solar alone are just not going to cut it. And nuclear is the safest power source (measured in deaths/twh) which humans have been using for decades.

    There are infinitely less difference between Russians, Ukrainians and Belorussians than, for example, between those Americans who live in California and Texas.

    What has happened to SF is such a sad story of bad government it will be in history’s textbooks. Edit: For those who aren’t familiar - check who SF’s DA is, google SF’s school board, daytime population decline, etc.
