Failing implies an attempt. The government deliberately chose to lift restrictions prematurely, knowing it would result in the deaths of millions of people, just to make billionaires richer.
Likely, but keep in mind, generally overtime, viruses become less* lethal as its the non lethal ones that survive to spread(as lethal ones kill host, and killing the host is detrimental for the spread of a virus)
While that is normally true, covid spreads before symptoms show. So it doesn’t select as well for non-lethality since lethal variants have plenty of time to spread before it kills the host.
True it just sucks that it’s yet another thing I have to worry about just to live and perform my job correctly. I hate getting sick regardless of lethality.
Given that CA has a population of approximately 40,000,000, and that the title mentions 10,000 without power, I’m sure one of the 99.975% of Californians that did not lose power is capable of confirming if you’re willing to finish your question.
When you deeply immerse yourself in the multifaceted realm of political analysis and personal character judgments, it’s intriguing to observe the vast spectrum of perceptions surrounding a figure as polarizing as Donald Trump. Some individuals, after a careful and considered examination of his actions and statements, might arrive at the conclusion that he embodies a form of genius, a distinct capacity to navigate the turbulent waters of political and social arenas. To them, it appears as if his trajectory has been characterized by a series of unerring decisions, each one seemingly infallible in its own right. Now, the nature of human judgment is inherently complex, rooted in a combination of cognitive biases, personal experiences, and cultural influences. So, when one posits that they’ve never witnessed Trump commit an error or hold an incorrect stance, it speaks to a deeply held conviction, one that transcends mere observational analysis and delves into the realms of personal belief systems and interpretative frameworks. It’s crucial to approach such assertions with a balance of critical thought and open-mindedness, recognizing the vast tapestry of perspectives that shape our understanding of political figures and their legacies.
I’d call it a “novelty” or “gimmick” account because a “meme account” should post memes, but yeah. Either it’s using chatGPT with a prompt like “write some bullshit about X in the style of Jordan Peterson” or it’s actually Jordan Peterson posting some bullshit.
I know an excellent therapist. In her professional opinion, she feels that other therapists and psychiatrists rush to diagnose any patient who comes to them with any type of normal worry or anxiousness about a situation that any normal person would also be worried about. It sort of like physicians who over prescribe antibiotics just because the patient insists. Just slap a label on the person and have them keep coming back for the fee. So, I do not believe the numbers are real. I feel like 60% may be diagnosed, but the number for people with the actual condition is likely much smaller.
I recently went to a therapist for a few sessions because I wanted to talk through some major life changes with an unbiased third party. I have no diagnosed anxiety disorders, but I was told in our earlier meetings that he was going to “diagnose” me with something like “adjustment reaction with anxiety” (or put another way “difficulty working through change”) so that he could continue to see me. This isn’t the serious anxiety disorder that many people struggle with, but would almost certainly be lumped in to the category of “anxiety disorders.” This was apparently done mostly for paperwork reasons; I imagine somewhere on the backend someone might be asking why he’s providing therapy to someone who “doesn’t need therapy” without something entered in.
I still don’t have an anxiety disorder, but that diagnosis is going to be on my chart forever unless I go through a lengthy process to purge it. I’m not saying this is the way every doctor will do things, but it might explain some of the increased prevalence of “disorders” in the population.
Cargo? Sure. Passengers? I’m not betting on it. I sure wouldn’t want to the guy farthest from the center of the aircraft. Every banking turn would become a roller coaster ride. Plus airport infrastructure would have to change. And tubes are easy to build.
I work for a subcontractor that’s been consulting for this project since November and even virtually attended some of the Wednesday briefing mentioned in the article. The body is actually designed specifically to work with existing airport infrastructures… Much much much cheaper not to reinvent the wheel when you don’t have to. The passenger airline is actually their biggest long-term goal: the air force/refuelling use case is how they plan to fund the long-term goals.
Also, I believe this is roughly the size of a 737 - the passenger deck is no wider than a 747s, and it’s not like window seats on the bigger jets aren’t comfortable.
When the FBI seized several of his cell phones in April 2021 in a now-closed investigation, much of Giuliani’s electronic records were held on a database operated by a company called Trustpoint.One. But they were archived, and running searches on files the company held for more recent litigation isn’t cheap. Even hosting his records with the company costs $20,000 a month, according to a recent court filing.
No sympathy at all to the drunk fool, but why is it so expensive?
The price is set at what the market will bear, and they’re a “Cadillac” service (e.g. aimed at high-income, white-glove-style clientele) per their “About Us” page
And your manager freaks out when one of them calls and demands anything. I used to work in a vaguely similar support role, though probably with fewer zeros attached.
Guns are usually illegal on campus. No good guy with a gun if the good guy is following the rules.
The police as well as the good guy with a gun have no obligation to protect you. If you choose to leave your safety up to the goodwill of others then that is your decision.
And a lot of places not especially accessible. The nearest Amtrak station is a 70-minute drive away for me. I’m married, but if that was what I had to resort to to have sex, fuck it, I’m becoming a monk.
