If you never have to guess there must be one more strategy to figuring it out I've never seen anyone mention, because I frequently get stuck with two options on the very hardest difficulty.
One non-obvious strategy is that the number of mines that are left on the field is known. Especially near the end, this can break a tie between two patterns of mines.

He's not an expert on vaccines or infectious disease and pushed known provably false narratives during the pandemic.
I don't think being a medical and phramaceutical expert disqualifies him speaking about vaccines, do you?
Amazing things happen when you crank up the level of simplification.

This is the modern world that we live in. If being “Vice President and Worldwide Head of Research in allergic and respiratory diseases at Pfizer” with 25 years of career does not qualify to talk about vaccines (in the context of of Covid, I assume because I do not know him or the videos), I frankly don’t know what does
I'm sure we can then find experts with those kinds of qualifications who also pushed covid misinformation (or to use more old-school terms, straight up fucking lies and unfounded, conspiratorial speculations) and held minority opinions.
Then we can lament on how having a minority opinion means your opinion is definitely being unjustly oppressed, as opposed to justly oppressed, which somehow we'll not be able to produce an example for. Does that really matter though if we can just pretend that we do have an example, or even believe outright we do and just not agree?
Or maybe we can lament on how just blindly trusting either authority or expertise is possibly not the most solid idea in the world. As if we actually had the option to do otherwise at scale, even in the best case scenario, and all people were magically equal and equipped to do so.
Humans and their unattainable reasoning ability. Oh the modern world. Yeah right.

#275Somehow, these new long TLDs just feel spammy and "fake" and I usually ignore them when they show up in search results. Unfortunately the .com, .net and .org are already taken.
I agree, there's some good alternatives available too of about the same length (if you include name + TLD): puttyclient.com puttyofficial.com puttytools.com puttydownloads.com downloadputty.org
This sounds like a virus site.

Like being an expert in virology and vaccine therapies for example. Or being boots on the ground rather than a bean counter. Really doesn't take that much imagination now, does it? Or is this "modern world that we live in" this anemic on imagination power?

So an expert is exactly the one you want to believe, and no other person, and you tailor the definition just exactly, so only people with your opinion are experts. Everyone has the world the size he deserves…

My decades long habit has been to search for "chiark putty". Never fails :)

Argument from authority is not particularly strong. The information on putty.org is considered misinformation by the vast majority of professionals in the field of infectious diseases.
