One of ours. He has won the victory of life now.

You know, I'm starting to think there may be a fundamental conflict of interest between the system we've built and the college athletes who make it work.

Wow. This is a moment to maybe step back and ponder the choices you've made.

I'm sorry, you want me to believe that that you got out with a EE? Even the most zappy power engineer knows the difference between a language and a program. And respects the applications and beautiful memory allocation transparency of Fortran. Yeah, but that's a fundamental result of market...

This is the most likely outcome. If they do get him, it will be because he was dumb enough to admit to doing it to other people.

No. That's just flat out wrong. The study examines regionally coupled and high frequency increases of unemployment claims. The frequency domain is not the same as the time domain. I suppose the fundamental hypothesis is that unemployment is a time invariant system. That actually seems...

Come on, Supersize. I know you're a smarter guy than this. Analgesics, nerve pills, heart pills? Only two antineoplastics, and the two most common ones? No antivirals at all? It's because it's a list of the most adverse reactions. A number that's highly influenced by the number of total...

The only cash I've kept for like the last 10 years is for tipping. And then I keep forgetting to refill it. Use card, wipe with isopropyl alcohol. Keep it outside the wallet after it's used. Wash all contaminated clothing.

It's also important to note that despite governor Jeanshorts refusal to act in a timely manner, Miami, Tampa, and Jacksonville all took extremely quick action to implement social distancing. That largely arrested the spread before it got to the nursing home belt and gave those communities time...

Ft Detrick is explicitly a biological weapons facility. The CDC, however, is not. The difference is rather important. Kinda like how we produce phosgene in all kinds of industrial chemical plants, but none of them are chemical weapons facilities.

Sure. And the same delivery will keep you safe from tetraethyl lead. It's a fairly heavy molecule, so as long as you're either inside or outside about 5 miles away from a concentration of emitters, you're fine with zero risk. Inside that radius, just wear a respirator if you want to go out...

Ah, sorry. What I'm saying is that evidence that one theory is wrong is not evidence that another theory is right. It is possible that both or neither are true.

I can? How? Remember I do need to periodically get food to survive. It seems like the onus on me to keep myself safe from either tetraethyl lead or coronavirus is quite similar, in point of fact. Scrupulous decontamination, respirators, and staying inside as much as possible. In fact, since...

I feel like we may have gotten off track. Whether lead behaves like a virus probably doesn't have much to do with market externalities one way or the other.

That's silly. In fact, the same respirator you use to protect from CoViD has modules that protect against tetraethyl lead. Or you can stay inside.

That's easy- U(sic)gA will never win another natty. They have the General Electric problem- their fundamentally terrible management means they buy world class talent and opportunities at top dollar and turn them into mediocre results. Anyone who might change that will be kicked out within 5...

Consuming air filled with tetraethyl lead isn't guaranteed to harm you either. There were plenty of people who didn't develop lead poisoning back in the leaded gasoline days.

RIP John Prine

Copper is mildly antimicrobial, but not on a timescale that would be useful to us.
