hah someone did this to me, developed their rooks while I took over the center and dismissed the guy, I got destroyed. obviously I still live in blunderville but man I learned a lesson that game.
Unfortunately at this stage of the pandemic, most peoples minds are made up about everything. There's enough refusenics that the virus will find a reservoir to do its mutating thing, so I think no matter what sensible people say its just a moot point.
can some mod do something about this user "dang"? he seems to crapflood every discussion I try to read with these stupid judgemental comments and never contributes to the discussions, doesn't hacker news employ moderators of any sort? I know I'm a new user and don't have enough "karma" or whatever to downvote but this guy is one of the most irritating and useless commenters I've ever seen, and that comes from someone who has used reddit and slashdot for quite a bit.
I don't disagree. I will add that the "system level" is itself legislated by elected officials. Its an interesting thing, like a series of games where the winner gets to redefine rules for the next match in the series. At some point the game can become rigged.
In the USA we're just predisposed to elect bad people, a significant segment of the voting public think electing a game show host is a good move, this sort of voting population will have effects at all levels.
I think its ok, I'd start with hypotheses and when I can, I would test them, and in the absense of a spare planet and mammalian species as your test tube, the only thing I can think of as a proxy for the proverbial test tube would be what statistics we can find.
I thought it was well worth the read and he left no uncertainty about the uncertainty of his test results.
I feel sorry for trump and I hope he at least has some fun with this project, I mean its not every day that you get the chance for a term or two in the highest office of the USA and then to be ridiculed for the dumpster fires that resulted has to grate on the guy. Think of it, he's not getting any younger and it has to be pretty clear even to him that he's generally considered to be a failure, especially given his embarrassing behavior post election.
I hope enough folks join up that it becomes a positive experience for him, with his last attempt it was obvious even to him nobody was interested.
Really, the story of trump is just all around sad and I'm not so mean I can't feel sorry for the guy.
I've had plenty of flu shots and never got a VAERS handout but I got a handout for the covid shot, I'm betting VAERS saw lots of use with the covid shot that wasn't common with other vaccines, so that has to influence the numbers.
From a gov't website:
"A report to VAERS generally does not prove that the identified vaccine(s) caused the adverse event described. It only confirms that the reported event occurred sometime after vaccine was given."
I guess if you see more coverups than the average person does then you'll probably form different opinions than the average person.
Also, the "freedom marches" include many Q types I'm sure, and if folks think the Q types are reasonable people, well you know...
Glad it was still dark enough to read, I had no idea some lumps of bitcoin are worth less because of a wallet they touched. Thats an incredible flaw, and really a big downside of bitcoin.
I love stackoverflow, use it all the time often from generic goggle searches, and I don't even have an account, its just that useful of a site. I suspect I would probably not answer very many questions due to others simply having better answers than me.
so there's an LED that lights when its recording, I wonder how soon folks are going to tape over it or something so they can just go trolling for meme worthy footage without their subjects knowing. I wonder if there is some legal problems with disabling the LED?
