    Comparing it to the trolley problem is incorrect. COVID had real potential to kill you , even as a young person. At that point its a matter of risk assessment for yourself. Take a …

    It's a good thing what random people thing is not taken a science these days, oh wait I guess science is on a historic decline as well. Maybe it's not climate chance, pseudo intell…

    You should know full well you need some method of determining if a student is competent enough to move on to the next class in whatever sequence. Perhaps universities are slacking …

    Why is government research doing what the industry should be. The point of government research is to enable people to work on things without requiring some economical impact. The f…
