Society wasn’t even ready for a waymo to kill a cat

Just like tienamen square :)

Often times it’s cheaper to add the label than pay for the product testing in a lab.

It’s theoretically possible, some experts think no level of radiation is “safe”. Yet, it’s so improbable that the risk of developing cancer from a single banana is indistinguishable from background noise. You get a far higher dose of radiation just from living on earth.

This fun infographic from xkcd shows a comparison of doses, and just how low a banana ranks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_equivalent_dose#/media/File:Radiation_Dose_Chart_by_Xkcd.png

It would have to be the “perfect shot” of a particle hitting a cell to cause DNA damage that wasn’t repairable. And you would need to be extremely immunocompromised.

If you were in such a position to get cancer from eating a single banana, you would likely already get it from living life.

They don’t actually tell you why.

I presume it’s because people in stem are more likely to have strong opinions about statistics, validity of tests or science, that sort of thing. Or, they’ll sound more competent when discussing with other jurors.

I also think both sides wanted to appeal to emotions, and have their expert witnesses be the technical authorities.

I recently went to jury selection, was excused twice. Probably because I raised my hand when they asked “has anyone been a victim of reckless driving” and the case was about a DUI and reckless driving. The other involved DNA evidence and they struck all of the people who worked in STEM.

Anyway, the security did NOT let me bring in my fountain pen, asked me if it was a pen gun lol… Ball point and pencils were fine. I think crochet needles won’t be allowed… Vapes and zyns were allowed. They didn’t seem to care about food or liquids at the courthouse I went to.

You’ll be spending most of your time in the waiting rooms, unless you’re picked for a trial.

Drinks and food were up to the judge, but the 2 justices I reported to basically said “if you have drinks, make sure they’re covered, otherwise be careful and don’t spill”. Boiled down to “don’t make a mess”.

They told us to turn phones off, but a lot of folks did not.

Books and sudoku should be fine. Just try to bring an empty bottle you’re okay with tossing if needed. There will likely be vending machines inside too.

You would have? That’s fucked up.

A common “self soothing” technique (depression, anger, negative feelings) is to take a short walk outside.

A new environment / context can make it much easier to get out of a negative thought loop or spiral.

I remember the “bleach and ammonia diamonds”. Fucked up

PTFE and some others are considered chemically inert. Other PFAS are mostly chemically inert.

Carbon-fluorine bonds are extremely strong. If these weren’t mostly chemically inert, they wouldn’t be “forever” chemicals. They would readily degrade and it wouldn’t be an issue.

Asbestos is chemically inert, as are PFAS, but both are understood to be pretty bad for you

Do both.

So that was a lie

Accelerationism

Are we already past the point of no return?

Log2(8.2billion) is about 33. That means if each word only had 1 synonym, you only need to change 33 words to uniquely identify who was responsible.

21 words need to change if each has 3 options. 17 words for 4 options.

I just watched a video of an interview with an FBI agent. That was literally what white supremicists say. “Do you support fascism? No? Then you’re antifa”

Character assasination would be pretty effective to preventing more luigis. Would people still think he’s hot if he got framed for that??
