Biontech pioneered the mRNA technique and they were sponsored by German taxpayers; and Pfizer was promised by Operation Warpspeed that US taxpayers would purchase 100 million doses of any potential working vaccine before it was even develop

It was never this hot within millions of years and differentiating between a world ending event and one that destroys economies and societies and eventually most life on the planet is disingenuous in itself

It's not hard, really, given that you will need to make only $1.90 per day to automatically become declassified as poor [1]. If anything, capitalism makes this harder to do achieve [2] which probably explains why the limit is set so lo

ES6 is compatible with Node out of the box. You can `import` and `export` just like in the browser (and in TypeScript) as long as your files come with the `.mjs` extension. Cherry adds this extension by default, so I imagine it comes with t

If Tailwind relies on classnames used in the HTML and defined in CSS, then that is the document based HTML/CSS model. The composability you are talking about is a feature of CSS, not the component framework. By stopping short at "

Well if you CSS can be loaded once and then cached: .button { background-color: blue; color: white; padding: 0.5rem 0.75rem; border-radius: 0.25rem; } Then the browser will need to download less bytes: <button class="button"&g

You should do what works for you, but even so. When you declare `py-4 px-2 bg-blue text-white rounded-lg` on five buttons in a row, doesn't this work almost exactly like inline strings when you compare to the semantic classname `button

It is literally why the game was invented and how capitalism works. I can't tell if you are in denial of this or if you believe it so evident as to be a waste of your time. https://survivingtomorrow.org/monopoly-isnt-a-

I think that super power affiliation is perhaps a somewhat outdated definition of the three worlds concept and Britain certainly doesn't fit the modern one [1]. This guy argues that Britain is best thought of as a fourth world country

Class instances are objects and it's the objects that have state. Functions can only abuse themselves as objects to store state. function johnson() { johnson.state = {}; } This is however shared state and the state will be reset whenev

In React terms, "functional" almost always implies the opposite of purely functional. It just means that the component is declared by a function instead of a class. First time you call it, the function can assign state that it may

This will change once they have boosted the 50+ population, or that's at least how it usually works. The Omicron targeted vaccines should be ready by then, so we are not necessarily out of luck. I'm 49.

The top complex component in Word is the text editor while the tricky component in Maps is the map. Neither of those can be made with the frameworks we're dealing with here, so that is a go. We can make the traditional UI with a simple

He only read the headline and now we're all discussing his feelings instead of reading the article which is about something else entirely. I recommend anyone still following this dysfunctional thread to go ahead and read it.

If you click the link, you'll find that the article features text below the headline that deals with literally none of those things.

That's just how just centrism looks on a global scale. People out here find it hard to imagine how Democrats could possibly move further to the right. If the Overton window leads to America, perhaps you should stop chasing it.

Yes. While we were discussing it, this guy wrote an article that sums it up pretty much perfectly: https://survivingtomorrow.org/inflation-is-soaring-get-ready... Another hot take on inflation, I think, is https:/&#x2

True, but the comment implied that people would buy 10x more avocados if their fortune tripled ten times and so a 10x price hike was needed to keep avocados in stock. This is not how eating habits work.

Inflation will also decrease the value of greedy peoples money, so what happened in 2021 was simply that greed got out of control. If you are greedy, the best way to fight inflation is to raise prices and collect more money. Once people sto

At this point I think we might as well admit that inflation is 100% caused by greed. It's funny because all the theories presented in the article - that inflation is caused by mandatory minimum wage, government regulation and taxes - i
