This reminds me I have a 200MHZ capable osciloscope that I only used when I opened the package and only tested the built-in function generator :( Good thing I bought it cheap from China.

The market cap of Tether seems to be on an exponential curve. I wonder for how long can they keep it going like that.

Anything that can prop crypto prices is a valid reason and anything that threatens the price is a damn lie.

Isn't the fact that those two mutations pop up in Brazil, South Africa and now India a good thing? That could mean it's likely the virus is running out of useful mutations?

But weren't they doing that exact thing in the Wuhan laboratory -- making coronaviruses infect humanized cells(with the ACE2 receptor)? Wouldn't the fact that it started in Wuhan point the razor in the direction of lab-escape theo

To START in Wuhan, the only place doing gain-of function on the closest known virus to SARS2 and to not find a natural source for it given the source was found within months for both SARS1 and MERS.

But the article explains why no data actually leads credence to the lab-escape hypothesis. For SARS and MERS we had data within months. We don't have data on animals because it was a lab-escape event. The claim that lab workers got fl

I wonder if sailors can get two passports for this reason (I know in my country you can get two if you plan on visiting both Israel and some other country that's hostile towards Israel). Not that it would help much, because you'd

The work will never be zero, and I have a hunch it could well be greater than your overall temperature gain. If the opening works on non-charged particles, it has to have mass and opening and closing it is not possible without work. The wor

How many channels are there on 5ghz? To me, the problems seem to be those devices use too many channels, continously? I recently tried checking some TPMS sensors that I bought with rtl_433 and was amazed by how many sensors can get along ju

I know, and it's just one of my tinfoil hat theory, but the fact that they haven't banned it already, or the USDT on some obvious money laundering issues, just fules my paranoia that taking over the future dominant crypto is more

Thanks! There's nothing in the article that suggests that tether will be closed if they are not backed up 100%, so I guess it won't make any real change even if they are not.

Did anything changed about tether having to reveal anything about their reserves? This has been going on for years, and it seemed that nobody was able to force them to prove anything.

I'm not contradicting you, and I don't think bitcoin will be banned, but the US total stock market capitalization is 49T and 1T capitalization of bitcoin world wide is not an issue. I use those figures to decide on the future pric

I don't like cryptos for multiple reasons, a lot of which could be fixed in the future. But we're way over the phase where governments would ban it, on the contrary, I think bitcoin is a last resort fix for the immense global debt

I have terrible sleep, but my hours of REM sleep are fine. It's my deep sleep that's toast; also I get to the REM stage too quickly, I think it's supposed to be a sign of depression. So it's a bit more complicated.

It's not (mainly) about introverts vs extroverts, it's about high status vs low status. I guess not having your ass kissed daily must feel like "running on fumes".

Ok, I saw your twitter links, I just took the SA study regarding prior infection or AZ vaccination as a contrary proof, perhaps the fact that they didn't include any severe cases mean that both findings can be reconciled and that vacci

There's got to be limits to biological and technological evolution. After all, it took ~billions of years for life to evolve on Earth and we're not immensely different than a monkey or dog. Also, we have very few genes compared to

Room temperature does not mean safe for carbon life, I'm sure at a far enough distance from a nuclear reactor's core there's "room temperature". But at that time, there must have been very few heavy elements so any

The studies seem to suggest the existing antibodies produced by some vaccine are not effextive against some strains, is there any evidence T-cells will do better given the variant looks like a completely new virus to the immune system?

The only issue could be if you take Sputnik now and Sputnik V2 too soon, if they use the same viral vector in the future (you could develop antibodies to the adenovirus itself, afik Sputnik uses 2 adenoviruses for dose 1 and dose 2 for this
