I stopped using Yelp long ago due to their business practices. This is a different issue but simply reinforces the decision.

I have to read the paper thoroughly but I've come to the opinion that multiple solutions aren't in of themselves a problem if they are incorporated into inferences. A lot of Bayesian inference can be thought of as involving soluti

I think the issue is the splicing flankers and recombinant mutation occurring naturally in that particular place.

Of course that says little about SARS-CoV-2 relative to all the other viruses we don't know about, either sitting in a Chinese government lab, or in a bat cave somewhere. I guess I don't find the argument "we can't figur

In one of these recent articles (the Wade piece?) they explain it's not the presence of a furin cleavage site, it's this particular furin cleavage site pattern including its flanking regions. There's discussion about the exis

I admittedly don't really understand this in depth but it has seemed to me that there's a need for some general purpose decentralized signature or authentication mechanism. I can see NFTs functioning in that kind of way although I

Interestingly, I tried to track down something more scholarly because I think you're asking a fair question. I couldn't actually find anything. This was the closest I could find: https://janes.scholasticahq.com/art

I grew up with single sex changing rooms being the norm pre internet, and hated it. It had nothing to do with homosexuality or internet, and everything to do with bullying and human's worst instincts. I was healthy and normal and strai

Speaking as someone involved in the US research university system, there's something deeply concerning about this piece. It's a bit like an article circa 2006 about the awesome strength of the US stock market.

I can't be entirely sure what was meant but my sense from talking to people in this area is that statements like that are being made very literally. As in, if you do not sleep at all one night, its not like you can sleep an extra 8 hou

Some of it yes, some of it no. I suspect the author and I diverge politically in important ways, and think the piece would have been stronger if it had avoided certain topics. However, I think its main argument is solid and succinct. The pr

Also: What if your pharmacist could do most of the practical things that matter to you about your medication, rather than requiring prescriber permission? What if you could do X by going to a psychologist or optometrist, or some other profe

Does anyone know of any general literature on this administratively top-heavy structure? It shows up in higher education as well, and I'm sure in other places too. I'm curious about patterns across domains and links to economic is

It's not doctor pay, it's economic repurcussions of monopolies. It's also not just limiting the numbers of physicians, it's locking out alternate providers of care and other models. Right now US healthcare is very hierar

Near me it's that, but half posts looking for owners of "lost" cats and wildlife, and sudden events, like "why is the major road shut down at the moment?" I get the local newspaper analogy but am not sure it's

It's a complex topic, and I sympathize with what you're saying but I think it's less a case of giving up and more of the US trying to benefit off of China's increasing dominance, combined with genuine laissez faire philo

I can't speak for her but my guess is she'd say at some point, even if debeers started it, its not about debeers anymore. Or she'd say something like why do we value the art we do? Isn't it all socially shaped? At what p

What's funny to me — and I mean this sincerely, not as a troll — almost all the examples of good writing in Gatsby in this thread and the target article seem overwrought to me. If you'd present them to me out of context, I'd

I can't remember names offhand, but there are economics research papers arguing that reward competitions are better economically than patents etc. I think some of them appeared in PNAS for example.

I think one big unspoken assumption in a lot of this discussion is that claims to something like the Dems actually rigging and stealing the election would reasonably lead to physical resistance. For instance, if the Dems actually were ste

Did she tweet anything more than Pelosi being removed from the chambers? If so you could see it as trying to tell the mob to basically back off because they wouldn't find her. The other tweet (about 1776) is more concerning but it&#x27

This is the very sort of thing that led to the creation of common carrier status, with the tradeoffs involved. It seems to me to be the solution with ISPs and net neutrality, and there probably should be something similar with sites like Tw
