Testing first, scientific analysis next, and opening last. Or people can go to an Oklahoma restaurant packed shoulder-to-shoulder without masks with their governor and expedite the restart the pandemic curve to end up with 100k more deaths.

It's a Tragedy of the Commons of their own creation. It's the platform's/s' responsibility to vet them and hold them accountable or risk making the platform/s look bad and dissatisfied customers. They are negli

Yep. Thank both the greed of the ruling class and the cowardice of the serf class to assent to even more dire poverty. A few UBI crumbs "that will last 10 weeks" could be the "let them eat cake"-moment, but it is extreme

The world isn't software engineering; if anything, it's philosophy. I look at it this way, and it sounds harsh but it's big-time decision-making life: 1. You could compel people to listen to something to ensure their safety b

Just add it for free. If that's not good enough, buy a PhD from some random sham "school." If that's not good enough, go work at a random, exclusive, graduate school department of your desired university as an employee u

It's mostly a pointless outrage, virtue signaling, approval-seeking, and social climbing sewer-drain of cyberinhibitionism. Taking the proverbial shit with the sugar would run out of toilet paper, and my supplies are low and it's

I saw Sidell before this on his YT channel and on Medscape/WebMD. There's two things to consider: 1. It is likely that 100% of patients withheld ventilation would die when they were crashing, hence why they were started on them; s

Physical security is about making things more time-consuming/expensive to defeat or steal than they're worth. Scale the amount of concrete poured on/around and lock devices/armoring of such devices per local economics.

Nuance is required. There's two sub-category ends of contradictory content spectrum: baseless/wrong/speculative (worthless) and scientific inquiry (worthwhile). Hopefully algorithms won't automatically ban people like Dr

I really don't care if TikTok or Zoom are associated with a particular country actually or if people assume it for racist, ideological, or nationalist reasons. It's the celebrities, novelty-seekers, and other influencers who commu

I've lived in California over 40 years. There are many storms every season. And your unicorn "big one" would likely be on-shore and produce no tsunami. I think you need a new nickname because your arrogant ignorance doesn&#x2

It's already causing an ecological disaster called climate change. We must go net carbon negative now, or ecocide and omnicide will be certain. Spilling oil would be comparatively trivial.

Yep. It's much closer to an 8 than a 6S. I stayed with the 6S because of the headphone port and Touch ID. It also was a testbed for the water-resistance for the 7, so it more-or-less is IP67 except for the headphone jack. The SE seems

Apple's waiting to see if 5G implodes and is replaced by something else better or equivalent that doesn't cost the carriers nearly as much to deploy and maintain. It seems crazy to have to deploy 1-2 orders-of-magnitude more equip

Don't. Just don't. Social media has proven to be a least common denominator gutter that worships outrage and chumbox spam. Either have bots make the snausage by filling the world with crap for money, or be at peace without approva

The worst is ahead if people miscalibrate their habits based on threat fatigue, impatience, conspiracy theories, hype, and/or lies. Without a vaccine or 100% quarantining+contact tracing, the pandemic will restart after each lockdown a

Regress instead of progress. AM had the nice property that it worked somewhat in mountainous areas, but it didn't sound very good. It had the nice property of range. FM sounded better than AM but had to be more-or-less line-of-sight. I

You're conflating a lot of things with sweeping generalizations. And, I've lived in CA for 40+ years, and know where the proverbial bodies are buried. Bread, milk, cheese, and butter vary a lot, depending on where you get it and h

Why not just hydroponically grow excellent grass feed at scale for milk cows for making good butter and destroy that market? It seems like a problem that can be cracked with comparative plant tissue analysis and replicated by proper plant l
