    > You are saying that COVID is worse than infection, so tell us when you tested people with no infection so that you can say that! When did you perform that test that you keep acti…

    This is so incredibly tiresome. I quoted Dr Wu in this literal thread, the actual author of the Stanford study. You're the one disagreeing with him.

    The denominator is literally the exact number of registered citizens in that district. There are no guesses, "wild" or otherwise. Spain has a universal healthcare registry. Everyon…

    No? It's population cohort study, not a hospital clinical sample. You're simply wrong in your assertions. You can absolutely track asymptomatic infections through seroprevalence st…

    In retrospective cohort studies, researchers track newly occurring incidents during the study window. If someone has a history, but suffers a new episode from covid, that is a medi…

    70/100k is baseline. 5/100k is vaccination. 200/100k is unvaccinated with covid. With vaccination you're at 75/100k. Without vaccination at 0% chance of covid you're at 70/100k. Wi…

    Then you also accept that the asymptomatic (unvaccinated) covid risk of myocarditis is higher than the vaccine risk, because it is.

    If we accept your (extremely unrealistic) premise, then sure, but the numbers get worse at just a 5% chance of contracting the virus itself, and downhill from there.

    Have you actually checked any of the referenced studies in that database? They do not say what Malone claims they say. I just picked one randomly [0]: > Conclusions and Relevance T…

    If you're referring to the Mike Kwan paper, he was on (I believe, it was years ago) the Science Vs podcast to debunk claims by the likes of Malone and Rogan regarding his study. Bu…

    The Norwegian study landed on 4.5 cases per 100k from vaccinations [0]. Unvaccinated occurance was 200 per 100k [1]. [0] https://www.oslo-universitetssykehus.no/en/departments/hjer…

    I agree, both in theory and that it's easier said than done, but I don't necessarily think that education is a primary reason, but merely a long term prerequisite of the project su…

    One instance of weather is not climate, but climate dictates variance in weather.

    They may not recoup R&D costs for a while depending on volume, but they will make a profit per unit. They can't sell them as loss leaders like regular console manufacturers can, si…

    I read a plot outline describing "turn of the century" and it threw me when I figured out they were talking about the early 2000s.

    It has 1M context, and it's not a huge codebase, and the context is sub 10% for a thorough task. This is an LLM issue, not a model/harness issue. I've run copilot/gemini/pi/opencod…
