    Those are some important facts, thanks for sharing. I’d like to see the probability of healthy people getting permanent damage however. That would change my mind. Until then the ex…

    The relevant facts are, one, only much older people have to worry about it, and two, the cure already exists in washing yourself. This common flu is here to stay, the absolute risk…

    If anything it would be more desirable for body temp to increase. Makes it harder for Viruses and pathogens to hurt us. Maybe that’s why people are getting sick more often it seems…

    This article blows it way out of proportion. I had no idea that this even existed, and if it does as the article says, what a new low America has reached - finding culture and comm…

    I hope you’re joking. I hope this whole article is a joke. No ones going to fast food joints for culture and community. They won’t find any. This is the worst of what America can b…

    My biggest gripe is how ridiculous bluetooth connection is on iPhones. Apple for some dumb reason decided to remove headphone jack before making Bluetooth connections easy and conv…

    I agree. I think the normal, well beaten path of simply chasing money and making friends is the best way to be both happy and succesful. To me it’s an average life, but mix luck in…

    Where are the examples? I skimmed the entire article and only found the veins example. What language in particular is the author even referring to? My own set of examples are the h…

    You can't just look at Uber to make a sweeping conclusion of all autonomous cars on the road. How many miles has Tesla, VW, Volvo, Waymo, Google, Ford, and Apple have?
