I've been this way since teenage years -- very light sleep, once I wake up its hard to go back to sleep, and I've had long periods where I could not fall asleep for hours. It was all related to stress and anxiety and perhaps lower

As someone who had COVID-19, I've researched this issue a lot. The single case presented here did have worse symptoms from the reinfection, but we do not know the antibody status after the first infection. Other possible cases, involvi

Can I ask about the performance of the library?

The environment can be preserved if: a) you keep the human population minuscule, at a primitive techonlogical level b) you completely wipe out all humans c) humans become so advanced they transcede their natural limitations

Please, please consider your privilege first, before beying condescending about the world population. Helping the Earth is very, very high on Maslow's pyramid, just appreciate that you are that high on it and think how to bring more pe

How is my tinnitus and now vertigo helping save CO2? Covid has massive painful ramifications throughout the world population and economy. Surely we can do better than a plague to save the Earth. This will most likely be over in a year or tw

Please, please, please stop saying that it is comparable to the flu in any way! I got a mild case of COVID-19, even the doctors in the hospital agreed on that; I was able to help other patients do stuff they couldn't, I could easily cl

Meanwhile, its impossible to find good information on how long can children be infectious. My daughter is 3 weeks after first symptoms and we'd like to get her back in kindergarden after 4 weeks. The same for RT-PCR -- I tested positi

I totally agree (no, I actually don't)... IF the money comes from the cops own pocket.

Of course you cannot say or do anything of value without generalization. However: there's a big difference between stopping a certain type of car after a robbery and stopping certain kinds of cars every day, without any specific reason

I probably had decreased smell, and it felt like I was tasting with the sides of my tongue and cheeks(2 weeks later the middle of my tongue peeled off almost looked like I was getting a snake tongue). I did test multiple times and I could s

My blood pressure dropped from 135/85 to 115/80 after I got COVID. I haven't checked it recently because I'm left with tinnitus in my right ear (that rings very loud when stressed or when exerting myself) and I was stres

Reactionless drives would be so nice. Not only could you transport materials around, but you could make Venus spin in 24 hours in ~10^4 years using currenr Earth electricity output and a super-conducting emDrive -- I did the math a couple y

It's funny, because I always complain about interfaces with just one implementation, I've never complained about an interface with dozens of implementations :)

And? Is there a lesson applicable for other countries? Would we have had less deaths without lockdowns?

Dips in O2 can be very dangerous. I saw a 48 year old guy unable to put his oxygen nostrils back when his saturation read something like 85. I think he went ~72% before someone put his nostrils back and the nurse put him back on facemask +

I did get d-dimers of 1.3 on my first test and 1.26 4 days later, so they got my anticoagulant shots in the hospital and aspirin at home, I initially did worry about that as well. The funny thing is the other patients had higher strength sh

The first time I realised how wiped out I really was, was when I helped an older patient -- his bed was next to a curtainless window and I climbed up to improvise a curtain from a bedsheet -- I was panting for air. Up to that point it didn&

Yeah, I'd say 90% of the issue(for me, not my wife, she actually was too sick to leave bed and had a todler to look after) was the stress and anxiety. But am I alone in this? I don't think so, I think most people would go through

Yes, that is true, I know I keep coughing for a long time even after regular colds, but somehow this doesn't put my mind at ease at all.

We were more than 2 meters apart, but we did shake hands and I smoked cigarettes from one of them. My friends did not get tested, but they also showed no symptoms. I sprayed the table with alcohol, the seats, my beer bottles. I did share an

But that was my exact thought -- would I do it again? Day 7 of mild symptoms and my relatives starting to get sick one by one -- NO! Day 20 -- still no! For 2-4 weeks after my daughter's symptoms I'll stress about kawasaki signs i

That is the thing -- mild symptoms is suuuuch a misleasing term -- sure, they were mild, but 20 days later and still tired, still caughing, stressing if that pain I feel is just a muscle tiree from caughing or I'm actually getting lung

20 days after first symptoms, still tired and coughing, and I had very mild symptoms. I've been very strict about social distancing EXCEPT the day(the first in 6 months) I went out for beers with two friends at and outdoor space. What

Ah, the good old "no true scotsman" argument. You can lose faith in a particular part of the scientific community without losing faith in the scientific method.

Please, stop with the 12millinewtons -- if the effect is real, the cavity can be made orders of magnitude more efficient. But it is 99.9999% not going to work at all, the emDrive would just be a cheat at space travel. Something that can tra

If the effect is real, my understanding is the force could be increased by many, many orders of magbitude by using a superconducting cavity.

That is also common knowledge and practice. My point when I said it is not actionable -- was that removing adversity is actually impossible most of the time, the therapist/psychiatrist has to give the client/patient the tools so h
