When Musk made the comment he was speaking of the disease itself, which is in fact not much more serious than the seasonal flu. And what he was not aware of was how hugely infectious covid-19 was and how badly that would impact hospital s

I had them and I killed them dead. Bed bugs are very susceptible to heat so steam is the key. The second key is to divide and conquer room by room. I did this with masking tape. So take your steamer and heavily steam every crack, crevic

If it's an article that seems to have an agenda (political, technical, entertainment, religion etc) I read the comments first. If it's an article about new tech, new science etc, things that are unlikely to have an existing const

It's interesting that Berkshire seems to have entirely abandoned oil and gas equity positions though they did provide financing for Occidental's buyout. Wind and solar on the other hand, they do own a lot of. Warren's final
