I know you hate this kind of logic. But... If rising CO2 levels trigger cognitive impairment, you should be wary of everything else you think is triggered by rising CO2 levels. Because you, and all scientists, and all…
They're probably incentivized towards erring in favor of false positive results (in order to avoid liabilities) thereby contributing to the panic element around this virus.

A good idea if you want your personal relationships poisoned.
The guy has been doing the TED circuit for ages. I once looked closer at his claims and his supposed proof by simulation and came to agree with the more negative takes at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11588698

Controlled compromise of privacy for the sake of scientific insight seems like a good idea, until you realize that we either get profoundly non-replicable junk "science", or continued and unlimited re-breach of privacy…

I don't think we can simply assume that starting position matters to "pulverization" after 1500 years. Mobility is more likely; the mobile object moves along with the ice, the stationary one gets pulverized.

Going on title and comments only, sorry, but why does "it's genetic" count as an explanation for anything? An explanation for this would need ecology. Why is it beneficial for some of us to need less sleep, but not for…
Because in the context of Epstein, intelligence doesn't necessarily mean CIA. Seriously, we can't say "Mossad" on Hackernews without getting flagged, can we realistically expect NPR to go there?

Wouldn't Elsevier be able to legally link to Elsevier IP on SciHub even if you can't?
You realize it's problematic to emphasize typos, right? (Thanks, would edit if I could.)
Not to take away from the side splitting hilariousness of this novel meme, but I just noticed Lisp is actually one of the few languages where you can't add spurious parentheses. If you find that a, (a), ((a)), etc are…
You realize that the OP's concerns actually intesify if the author in question is perceived as an authority on the topic, right?

That compiles because with gcc extensions or sufficiently recent standards, variable size arrays are now a thing. The compiler doesn't insist on a static array size. What about something like this: #define…
If you're writing 'enough' Rust, you're probably a Mozilla employee.
