I never understood how peer reviewers are supposed to "validate" a paper and how they’re tacitly thought to be doing so by the general public. Authors make claims based on data reviewers don’t have direct access to, from experimen

The word definitely is completely idiomatic with regard to humans in French. Look up any dictionary definition. And there’s no law making it illegal in France. Besides, even if it had such a law, the French state doesn’t have a monopoly on

I used to not have a tv by choice and go on walks all the time as I had nothing to do. I stopped doing it as it became weird and lonely past a certain point and age. There’s nothing quite like seeing people out in the world with purpose whi

There is a counterparty to every financial transaction. Presumably, both sides are happy if they agree to trade with each other. All of what you call "unproductive financial schemes" are mostly about exchanging risks, just like in

Of course you can find PhDs that don’t master fundamentals properly, but that remains rare. PhD quals are supposed to root that out. It’s also true that in day to day electronic engineering, any sufficiently complicated circuit would be sol

Pretty much. There's a recent video going around of a Russian helicopter in Ukraine firing off all its flares in panic after its sister helicopter is taken out by MANPADS. Predictably, the Ukrainians wait until he runs out, and then he

My understanding is that the poorest people are covered by medicare or get their fees waved (hospitals won't refuse to treat someone needing critical care). That is not "zero social net". Nobody is in fact jealous of the Amer

To think that the US has no social safety is also a common trope. Food stamps, medicaid, public & section 8 housing, SSDI, EI, etc. in combination with the unique opportunities allowed by American society to get back on your feet (low u

This is neither low cost nor commercially relevant. It’s an exotic, low-temperature (so incompatible with subsequent steps of most wafer processes) deposition of rare earth material. The lasing wavelength is all wrong (1.9 um). It requires

Then doctors filter what patients they take to guarantee these good outcomes. This is already done by some surgeons. Surgery is already a subset of medicine heavily judged on outcomes.

Because the supply of medical doctors in most countries including Canada is heavily constrained. People are wary of opening the flood gates because it is expected that the quality of care would drop (not necessarily a good argument). Meanwh

Many countries with universal healthcare still pay by the act. In Canada, doctors are mostly independent service providers that bill the government directly. This can lead to two problems: a) they don’t do a whole lot of medical acts becaus
