Yeah, it’s really horrible when I have to show my age passport to get served a beer, too. Edit: moreover, the party that wants fewer restrictions on voting is the same as the party that wants people to get vaccinated. And the party that is

Moderna plummets.. from 456 to 419, up from 63 a year ago? Plummets is not exactly the word I would use.

Polio is actually a very good analogy. Only in about 0.5% of cases does it affect the nervous system. Only in at most 30% of that 0.5% is it fatal. In 70% of infections it is asymptomatic. COVID is actually very much like polio. And the v

It’s just whataboutism. The person you’re responding to has a long post history defending China and shitting on the US.

Editorialized and misleading title. More anti-vax propaganda. They’re really hiding it what with the article being posted on nih.gov and all. HN should be better than this. Let me summarize the study: “We deleted a protein from a different

It depends on your application. If you are running on a smartphone, or on an AR headset, or on a car, or on a camera, etc, you generally do not have the latency budget to wait for multiple frames and run at high batch size.

There is a reason I wrote my post in as carefully a neutral manner as I did. My message is that the author has a significant body of other work supporting her position and has spent considerable time developing and advocating for it, and th

For those who are not aware by name alone, the author, Catherine MacKinnon, is a very dedicated anti-pornography and anti-prostitution feminist. She was a major player in the 1980s when mainstream feminism split between sex-positive and ant

Hot take: why do we still care? Linus says something negative about something, big shocker. This is just the tech crowd equivalent of a tabloid at the supermarket checkout isle, Tom Cruise is secretly a ferret-lover, read all about Bob’s to

On the anxiolytic side - a warning for those susceptible to such things, when I was taking melatonin it caused me horrible anxiety, something I’d never experienced before. It stopped not long after I discontinued it.

The thing about excess deaths that I hope we can all appreciate is that it is not a political measure. We can argue about if those deaths were caused by COVID or by the response to it. But we can’t argue about the magnitude of the catastrop

I hope that you wake up and realize how much damage you’re doing, and how much people who hold beliefs like yours have already done. I am one of these residents you claim say things are improving. They are not improving. I live in one of th

No one is entitled to live in SF. The problems you describe are not caused by hate of the homeless, but the opposite - bleeding heart tolerance of their destruction of this city.

I don’t understand how on earth you could come to your conclusions if you actually live in SF. Large parts of San Francisco are a nightmare in large part because of a near total absence of law enforcement. I cannot imagine what cities you c

The core problem here is reporting to prevent CSAM (hopefully, it is uncontroversial that doing so is desirable) but rather that this makes on-device snitching on any topic a matter of -policy- rather than -technology-. It is much harder fo

It would be great if it did, but we’ve made great strides in a lot of non-solid tumors. They are much more targetable, it is easier to get a small molecule to the problem cells. Admittedly, some tumors like GBM without a single mass remain

I mean, you know what’s happening here, I presume. The anti-vaccine faction will just lie about prior infection and keep spreading the plague. In exactly the same way as we have people forging vaccination cards now. There’s been a consisten

Every large company has these trainings. I personally have worked at multiple companies with very similar trainings. With thousands of employees, a company can’t take the risk that some random college hire mouths off over Slack on something

How can you sleep at night? There are literally millions of dead and you are letting these right wing trolls opposed to medical care run freely over this site behind this fig leaf of civility. Five minutes ago on the front page there was a

4.5 million dead people disagree with your conspiracy. No one is getting killed from the vaccines. It’s rounding error.

by bigcorp-slave 5y ago
You’re twenty years too late for this sentiment. You’re already tracked constantly by everything around you. The vaccines are not a useful method of tracking or control. Computers and cameras are much better.

I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect that there be a landing page that says “most healthy people should follow a Mediterranean diet” or similar. Sure, there are food allergies - I have some myself - but this site seems like it’s trying

Don’t be snide, it’s unbecoming.

It would be great if this website answered the question “what is a healthy diet”, instead of trying everywhere to get me to watch some of its hundreds of videos.

You are right, I misread the article and now it is too late to edit.

Done, thanks.

If someone can check my math, this seems like a perfect opportunity to do a statistical test. Sample sizes are too small to say that there is a difference between previous infection and no previous infection. Given the contingency table:

Just Google his name. You are using polite words, but not engaging in good faith. It’s not worth wasting my time further with you. I guess I should have checked your history to see that you’re a dedicated vaccine denialist.

There’s nothing in there that’s an attack, but wow, you are an asshole. There is a good faith engagement and persuasion in there, and you respond with this? Fuck off, you’re what’s wrong with society.
