What's the joke? It seems to me they're trying to make a point about the study that appears lower on the page, the one claiming that vaccinated people are dying at a higher rate than unvaccinated.

There's no way on earth they can actually know the movie-viewing history of those who recently died. So the data must simply be fabricated. It undermines the point they're trying to make. They should have used a real example.

That's diabolically clever. I'm curious how any technology can overcome that, and why BT is apparently more susceptible?

I don't know how Tesla implemented their key, but there's nothing in BT that makes it inherently vulnerable to repeater attacks. Garage doors addressed that problem a long time ago by changing the code after every successful open

I'm not an economist either... but the buying power of your bitcoin goes down if people demand more of it for a given product. If USD prices rise, the bitcoin price will rise too, meaning your bitcoin wealth is affected by inflation,

To my knowledge, the integration with the kernel is still not very good. As someone else mentioned in a reply, there are large swathes of the Solaris kernel with duplicate functionality included in the Linux kernel solely to support ZFS, b

There's already a mechanism for that, it's the legal system. We don't need another shadow force of executioners.

That assumes that the human driver responds appropriately to the passive aids. But an electronic system that never gets tired or distracted may eventually perform much better and more consistently in this regard.

Like scientists, doctors, and programmers who only use certain words in the company of their fellow practitioners? Or say any number of fan bases (think Anime, or personality-driven youtube channels) that have their own lingo?

I'm not describing exposure, i'm talking about infection where the virus enters the bloodstream, regardless of test results (which aren't perfect and may not even be taken if the person is asymptomatic).

The vaccinated are not less likely to be infected. The vaccine can not stop infection, it can only help your body fight off the effects of infection.

How are case counts determined? Why would someone who has no symptoms go for testing? Case counts among the vaccinated are surely being under reported because they're asymptomatic.

This seems like a more gentle way to say that innovation in the sector is slowing a bit. Which would account for why "mature" nodes will be producing more revenue than the latest developments coming online.
