Lmao. And good thing we have BBC covering this technology breakthrough.

That's why we are seeing a much higher rate of Long Covid cases in women, rather then men.

Making a comeback? When did it ever go away? The author talks about high frequency trading and finance applications, but it does not seem he has ever worked in the field. Production HFT is written in C++.

Lol, turn out fine. Health condition is not binary. There are way more nuances between healthy, hospitalised and dead. We are only now getting a better picture of the aftermath.

You are clearly misinformed. The CDC has already created a new code for the disease, along with a name: PACS https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/clinical-care/...

Who is funding this project?

What's the point here? Is electricity even the bottleneck of water desalination? I thought the biggest issue with these plans is the brine. That is the major pollutant, and no amount of solar panels will solve that.

The author is talking about buying puts. These have expiration dates and a set price. Not only he believes bitcoin will collapse, he is basically suggesting he has a crystal ball on when it's going to happen.

Your seem uninformed. Dai is backed by USDC.

Agree. Look at Santos, Brazil, as an example. Lots of buildings near the coast are visually tilted because of the terrain : https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/leaning-towers-of-santos It hasn't been an issue.

What's the point of reclaiming land in a country that has vast amounts of land to be used, like the US? I can understand why Singapore does it.

Are they looking for people outside Russia that may be helping her? There's not much they can do while she's living there.

Do people seriously believe antibiotics are magic shots that make you whole again? Syphilis is associated with serious sequela, some that only show up years later. When humans build a great tool to eradicate a disease, people think it'

China is not innocent by any means, but I sense some hypocrisy from those that arrogantly think they have a higher moral ground here. Pretty much every country has their own "Trail of Tears", even the progressive and almighty Cana

"reasonable adjustments" I hate these subjective laws, it's wide open for manipulation of whoever has the bigger stick. As harsh as it may sound, they should state that every building, no matter how old, needs to be accessibl

You're not wrong about Canada. I was surprised that even public transit there is not guaranteed to be accessible to handicapped people. One sad example is Montreal. In fact, a couple of years ago a handicapped association in Quebec sue

They are not opening their source code, as far as I know, so who is auditing this supposed end-to-end encryption?

Don't think this assumption that "the employer will pay according to the cost of living" is true at all. Non-tech worked in Silicon Valley are not getting the same kind of party, for example.

McAffe should have known better. He has enough money to buy any banana republic citizenship that does not have extradition treaties.

I don't understand why he got the citizenship in the first place, it's not like he was born there. If you have a green card already, there's no reason to go for the citizenship. The cons far outweigh the benefits. You're

I'm surprised there is no mention about the Steiners moving a civil lawsuit against eBay. Specially after criminal charges were applied. It seems that it would be an easy win, or at least a large settlement.

They had the chance to defend themselves after the case became public. What did they do? Had their trails tucked between their legs and went to hide. It's a shame only these pawns were charged.

They were paying here SGD600/month. Can you even survive in Singapore with that salary?

You don't need VPN, it's just the app stores that cannot offer it anymore, you can still side load it. The States don't have a "Great Firewall" equivalent... yet.

Damn, people are quick. I did a couple of searches, and all the good ones are taken already. Probably most by squatters. How did your even find out about it? Do squatters have a newsletter on new domain sales or something?

At least Theranos never went public. Nikola did have to go through its proper SEC fillings before being traded on a stock exchange. How they managed to do it all fraudulently is beyond my comprehension. Would the SEC also be held responsibl

You can already invest in pre-IPO companies, at least indirectly. Some holdings offer exposure to them, but you won't get to be very picky.

How dense is your country though? I feel that having fiber in big cities is a given nowadays. I don't think telcos have any plan on supporting those smaller remote towns with fiber. Maybe investment does not pay off in a reasonable amo

We're told this is a global economy, and yet think about things that are still overly complicated and expensive nowadays with financial operations. Things like wiring money to people abroad, buy securities in other countries, and all o
