Russia’s inability to keep up with the economic challenges of the US’ military output is what cause the collapse of the Soviet Union after all.

Yum! I’m making a real bastard Indian-American fusion “Butter Paneer Pizza” tomorrow. Got the paneer marinating in the fridge (first time marinating paneer!) and the preferment for the dough is bubbling away on my nightstand (rest of the house is too cold for it to get properly frothed).

There are definitely some folks that see “National Socialism” as the party name and look no further. Fortunately, I don’t think it’s a strong majority, but they pop up online.

The Blue Hole of Absiko is a meteorological phenomenon that owes its existence to the jet stream and prevailing winds that blow in from the Arctic Ocean in a westerly direction. The reliability of these stable westerly winds means that for the majority of the aurora season, the wind blows in the same direction over Abisko, creating a prevailing weather pattern known as a microclimate.

When the prevailing winds from the Arctic Ocean meet the tall mountains just over Sweden’s border with Norway, moist air is blocked by the mountains creating a rain shadow above Abisko. This effectively tears a 10-20 square kilometer “Blue Hole” in the clouds above Abisko and provides a window to the stars even on the cloudiest of nights.

Expected rates were obtained by participating sites using pre-COVID-19 vaccination healthcare data stratified by age and sex (Faksova et al.).

The original paper seems to be far too ineffective a methodology.

That is not an effective control; at least take the same health data analysis from the unvaccinated population. Given that even folks with the vaccine can catch less severe cases, you really need to root out COVID-19 as the cause of those complications.

I don’t see these ever getting cheaper than a smartphone, and probably a flagship smartphone at that. I think it will be a major blocker for adoption outside of niche contexts and tech bros’ homes.

Shocking he even goes through the pretences.
