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 desperately trying to stop as many people from voting as possible is also very pro-disease. So this seems like a pretty unlikely scenario.

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 vaccines aren’t deadly - this is just misinformation.

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 virus and made it less dangerous, thus showing that the protein is important.”

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 that this is not really about OnlyFans alone but part of a broader social movement the author is a notable part of. I am deliberately not taking a stance on that movement as part of my comments here, because I think it’s a complicated topic deserving of serious discussion, and that that discussion has been ongoing for forty years as part of mainstream feminist debate.

Perversely, it seems that writing in an intentionally neutral way has caused me to get downvoted to zero, while the top comment calls the author a crank.
