Not sure what you mean. The differences in impact seems to be trivial to explain given the vastly different measures taken by different countries, and their timing relative to the start of the outbreak. The IFR estimates are very similar ev

It's unclear to me what you are basing this on. How do you know that the "how careful do we want to be to avoid testing failures" parameter was exactly where SpaceX wanted it to be in this experiment? Or was at an optimal poi

How is this "much more likely to be a malicious state actor"? There is literally nothing about this attack that indicates a state actor.

I haven't seen any evidence supporting the argument that they do not protect the wearer. The argument seems to be that they aren't 100% effective at that, and therefore shouldn't be used for those purposes, which doesn't

I'd like to see a source that they do not protect from incoming droplets. This seems to be completely false.

How is this even remotely similar? H1N1 killed less people in Italy in a year than coronavirus killed in a single day.

That's only because you chose the lessons that support whatever you wanted to prove. Alternatively, John Wick, and almost every other action movie, show us that violence - and killing people - is an effective and morally acceprable way

1. It is both more contagious and lethal than flu. There were estimates that 40% to 70% of the world population will eventually get infected. Depending on how the world responds to this - millions might die. 2. This isn't flu. The same

Not sure I understand your problem. What prevents you from simply changing your interpretation of review scores so that it will better fit the expectations of others, instead of avoiding leaving helpful reviews altogether?

This is true only if you really aren’t used to watching films with subtitles. In many countries, foreign films with subtitles are the norm, and its what most people watch all the time. Once you are used to it - it doesn’t hurt immersions wh

I really don't understand the signalling argument - it just seems obviously incorrect. Who are you signalling to? In places where airpods are frequent, pretty much everybody can afford them - certianly in the social circles of the peop

Specifying the max number of concurrent lambda execution has been possible for years - it's called reserved concurrency. This does nothing to solve the issue however. There are many use cases where you can't delay handling request

IMO this isn't particularly news worthy. It's some small unit in the Army doing some minor collaboration with a questionable group of people on a pseudosceintific subject. The US military and government have a very long history of

At least in the context of the Nimitz incedent, Cmdr. David Fravor said on the Joe Rogan interview that there is no "full video" - this is something that was invented by people who have never seen the video, what we got is pretty

But your example doesn't disclose anything at all - those cases have nothing to do with one another. The US loses nothing of any value by admitting that a bunch of leaked videos, confirmed by former pilots, are real. This isn't co

This matches Bob Lazar’s description only in the very general sense of using the same alien-technology buzzwords that are used everywhere by cranks and conspiracy theorists. The details though are very different from what Bob Lazar describe

What a ridiculous non-argument. What about your advertisement is even remotely similar to the context of the above quote from an iPhone 11 camera review? Pretty much nothing.
