How expensive was it to participate in message boards. My parents used it so sparingly and with the idea that any minute was addding up. I read 60 francs l'heure, so about 10 euros or more like 17 with inflation. Even spending an hour a day would be a costly hobby.

Is not it something anyone can do for free using image J with a bit of scripting.

It would be the test using QPCR to amplify the virus genomic material from samples collection. That test is a lot more specific though there can be issues with how the samples were obtained.

Well this one seems more rigorous. They monitored concentration in blood for 4 days, they checked viral presence two following days at the end. They don't mention viral load though and I don't know if they have a threshold for cycles in QPCR to estimate that. This kind of paper is not here to say here is the proof it works or it does not work, it is meant to say: this what we had with us, this how we did it, this is the results we observed and whether or not it validates the hypothesis stated.

If those solutions were viable at scale then countries like germany or england using lot of renewables and coal (gas or gb) would have been using them already.

I don't think here are available storage solution for renewables and even if there was it would need to be a solution scalable without a risk of running out of resources to make the batteries. Renewables are great but they work on the shoulders of nuclear/coal which need to pick up the load when there is no sun/wind. Renewables feel like paying more for getting less with different but not necessarily less pollution issues.

Is it possible or ethical to offer a research option to f.lux? Like you would let the user pick that option and have the software dim the luminosity with or without cutting more specifically blue light then have them report and if they felt any difference after a week/month or a month, repeating the process for a few months/week while either alternating or changing the mode.

Maybe it is a dumb idea as it is too easy to tell whether the software is in full effect or not.

Question from a completely clueless perspective. The points you mention I always have and I have been wondering where to simulate it and get numerical answers to all those behaviors that can be infuriating. In your seattle full map you say you heuristically got the time for the lights, but where is that coming from exactly, like would it be possible to infer that for another city from some kind of public data. Is it in the domain of science fiction, there are so many parameters to take in account so it probably is impossible, that you could model the usual behavior of commuters in a city and then simulate whether the current traffic lights are set for the right length of time. I suppose some are updated live to react to traffic jams but in these circumstances there could also be way to simulate how shifting times would be the best to refluidify the traffic, instead of just going with brute force and empirical intuition which I assume is how it works most of the time.

Is it, he constantly mixes aspect of climate change that are unrelated to each other and claims they are the same to say that concerns about the long term effect of climate change are overblown.

I think you are looking at it backwards. For a business to be successful they should not have to burden themselves with the livelihood of their employees. Truly businesses should be able to have people working and living close to the working facility as well as eating there. Dorms will be owned by the businesses and employee will either pay for them or have their wages reduced for the cost of living, same for food. If they fall sick they should pay for the missing hours, no hollidays of course or breaks since those are just wasteful idle time spent. Relationships are forbidden as they put productivity at risk. In an ideal world there will no silly government regulation and the market will sort it out, if the people were unhappy with this model it should be possible to import workers from countries with lesser opportunities who would be more than happy to fill the gap. This is how it is going in most productive electronic facilities in china and why USA is falling behind with all those silly regulations killing businesses.

Do you have any source showing that wind turbines in the north sea can deliver electricity on demand 365d/24h. Renewable energy is all nice and fine but when it comes to having electricity available at any given time there is a reason why germany has so many coal plants to compensate the slack or why UK taps in France nuclear capacity when brits turn on their water kettle during the ad break.

Where are the couches, what about more rooms?

In this case I believe it is more an issue coming from the authors of that particular article. They probably used some bibliography software that recorded the sci-hub as the address for some articles cited, although published articles are peer reviewed people rarely scrutinizes all aspects of an article that finely to pick such issues.
