Prior to covid, the R and D cohorts had identical excess deaths. 2 years later, following covid, there is a large gap. It seems unlikely theres a comorbidity that struck the unvaccinated, that cant be explained by covid.

I was being as flippant as i interpreted OP to be. I dont think there is a significant disparity in medical care between R and D. Vaccines were available to all, after that its personal responsibility, you cant cry that your group is dying

Yes, it is broken out by age and vaccination status. Turns out vaccination status is the likely culprit.

What should you do with this information though? Should the salespeople focus on the customers that are most likely to convert? Or should the salespeople give minimal attention to those, and focus most on the ones less likely, but not 0 pro

Hypo - A prefix of Greek origin, cognate with sub- of Latin origin, and meaning primarily ‘under,’ either in place or in degree (less,' ‘less than’). I cant help but feel a hypocracy is a great word for small government

If there are things in your community you can change, then stoicism certainly does not say dont do it. Marcus aurelius, one of the most famous stoics, was roman emporer. Hardly a position someone who felt they could change nothing in their

Farmers already put loads of lime and dolomite on soils to provide calcium. They do it to raise ph, but basalt does that too.

In general i think its not about enforcement, but incentives e.g. designing a tax system that penalises owning many homes.

I disagree somewhat. I think the 30 year mortgage has pushed prices up much higher than they would have been, because of the leverage, and people only look at the monthly repayment. The fact that it has led to intergenerational wealth (amon

If people have dumped engine oil as a weed suppressant or just poured it out on the ground, youll get a lot of heavy metals including lead. Also leaded gasoline used to be popular, and would likely have been used for all sorts of things lik

I find most of the wear e.g. collar wear also comes from the drier. Line drying seems to keep shirts in good condition much longer.

The casp competition that they won consists of a bunch of new proteins, the structures of which havnt been published. So the test set is for brand new proteins in that case.

You can always look at all the papers that cite the paper of interest. That provides the other direction deltas, and is something i do all the time, especially for older papers, looking for papers that might be relevant to me.

I'm like this. Any amount of onion (cooked or uncooked) in a dish ruins the dish for me. If it completely fried down to the point of being unrecognizable its fine. I happily eat garlic though. I wonder if theres a genetic thing like wi

wouldn't the refrigerator have to work a lot harder in that case to remove the extra heat? doesn't seem beneficial from an energy use perspective, considering you have to pay to heat the water, then cool it again.

It wasnt written by the WEF or anyone who works for the WEF, the story was written by danish MP Ida Auken. The stated goal of the exercise was to provoke thought. Which Id say it has done.

The whole "you will own nothing and be happy" was part of what amounted to a creative writing exercise by economics researchers on possible futures. Certainly not some guiding principle of the world economic forum.

Basalt is extremely common, its not something that anyone will run out of. We may run out of basalt sources that are close enough to farmland it can be spread on, but it would take a while. And trains would change the economics.
