I think tech workers will win the PR game in the short term on this issue because of delta, but lose in the long run. Pay is a lot higher in this industry than many others in America, and when tech workers move into smaller towns they end u

i was wondering this the other day. the next big mutations may not be more infectious because they can survive outside the body longer, but because they get around existing immunity or theres a longer asympomatic-but-still-transmissible pha

lol, you havent worked with road workers if a self driving car cant handle something like a guy in an orange vest directing traffic then its a very questionable venture even for scroogle or crapple. unexpected things happen on the road and

i agree with this, but delaying enough may get us to a vaccine for delta without having to get delta. i wish more vaccinated people would get tested and participate in studies so we had a better idea of what the risk level is for long term

bottled water sucks ass, but how do you quantify this sort of thing? it's almost a meaningless number. after 3500 liters dispensed from a tap, is there one empty plastic bottle dumped in a landfill? or are you supposed to reuse a water

the real issue with biometrics is that you can't properly secure them. you can hash a password, but a palm/finger/eye scan cannot use a zero knowledge proof. they also change over time and can be mimicked using a photo taken

the asia countries love their weird pizza toppings. i saw a pizza being advertised with real spiders on it, but they had other toppings which were about equally as weird. at the time almost any pizza was 40-50 USD.

you'd have to drink so much water to get symptoms of hyponatremia you practically have to set out to make it happen. most people puke before it gets too bad. if you do get it and your wits are still about you, suck on a bouillon cube,

i had trouble with the engine air filter specifically. might have been a make/model specific thing, but i found one of the last ones in my state according to the dealers inventory system.

I'll jump onto the dog pile and add air filters for your vehicle. Dealerships are buying them up like toilet paper so you have to call around and ask them very nicely if they'd mind shipping it to you. And during fire season too.

I suspect that breakthrough infections are a lot more common than what's being reported. They can only report the cases they know about after all, and for the fully vaccinated it's a lot milder so it's not much to worry about

the market does the factoring for them. to acquire the talent they want in a place like nyc they have to at least pay them enough to live close by. its a lot more expensive there than most other places. this until recently was a factor that

your living expenses get factored into your pay, it's why you (at least used to) hear of secretaries in nyc making over 150k. most of it goes to rent and other living expenses.

itd make more sense to lay a bunch of pipe underground and cycle air through it. or water in a closed circuit with a heat sink.

It seems like a good hydrogen chain could look like: solar panels floating in the ocean split the water and store it, a tanker picks it up and takes it to port. Burn hydrogen at a power plant for the grid, condense the vapor and use it for
