I am a parent. It's not that I don't think some children should be vaccinated; some should. Overweight, diabetic, etc. We know where the risk is, and we know the vaccine reduces serious outcomes. It's recommending it across-t

It cannot stop transmission, clearly. The country is mostly vaccinated and cases continue, no herd immunity ever showed up. The vaccines do reduce transmission in the minority of cases where full-blown symptoms last long enough that the red

It also seems like, in the absence of assurance of long-term safety, you would recommend the vaccine for at-risk groups only. It's known now that the risk to young people (under 19) is minimal: IFR < 3/1,000,000. And that was d

I think this is an excellent suggestion. When you do switch to a full build system you'll be able to troubleshoot any issues a lot faster.

Wouldn't an easier way to do this be to control diet? For one thing, it slows the process of change down which would ease any shock-related side-effects. Of course, it takes a lot of work from the patient to adhere, but if they are at

If you are willing to pay for that knowledge (and boy should you be) there are plenty of books. Starting Strength is a good one and it's not even expensive.

Well if another name had become generic long ago, it would be familiar usage and not surprising at all. You would have grown up with it, and think it normal.

Or just take a look at all of the academics who have lost their jobs for saying unpopular things in the last few years. You don't have to go back to McCarthy, it's right here now.

This is absolutely it. The "shopper" is not the payer, so why consider price?

That sounds like the laptop USB ground was not connected to the battery reference (and logic) ground. That's probably intentional but seems like it might cause problems with other USB uses from that laptop as well. I am assuming when p

I agree with you in general about media bias, but with regard to autonomous vehicles you've picked the exact thing media should have been skeptical about. It's the critical, even skeptical view, that is appropriate. I don't

Well you don't need the quote to get an idea of how feasible it would be for you to afford it. But I think you'd need a quote once you started fine-tuning your ask.

What often happens is you never get to "code standardization across the org" because technology changes too fast. But you still have to deal with overly complex patterns, varying and mis-applied patterns, etc.

Those are the exact people who should get the vaccine. It's great that it exists. Forcing people who are not at risk, to inject something into their bodies which will not help them is authoritarian overreach, even if the vaccine DID pr

IIRC Improv natively had what later became known as "pivot tables" in Excel. Improv didn't call it anything special, it was just an inherent part of using it. Long time ago and my memory could be iffy.

I noticed also that the defense of this research seemed to say "I tried to do something dangerous, but I failed, so retroactively it was OK."

"Attenuation" is a decrease. Gain is an increase. I may not understand the nuances of virology-speak, but: When we talk about GoF research as a dangerous activity, it is dangerous because a virus got better able to infect and hurt

To me, when it arrived Google was attractive because it had a simple, clean home page. Big search field, the work "Google" and not much else. At the time the other search engines plastered the home page with ads. Also at the time,

The calories-in calories out approach would work if people could drastically lower their caloric input and increase their output. But that is the "sledgehammer" approach. Far better to understand the underlying processes, and deve

It's also easy to see that the "older generation dying out" is completely obvious, and happens anyway, no matter what amount of mind-changing is going on. As minds change, some young and some not, the older minds go away, so

But as a diet, this would be glucose spikes multiple times per day, for perhaps a lifetime. That may not qualify as "toxic" I guess, in that it doesn't kill you on the first day. But it is not benign.
