There is an entire category of problems described by P = NP. What this means is that the solution itself can be computed in non-polynomial time, but the solution can be verified in polynomial time. The time it takes to compute the solution is different from the time it takes to verify the solution.

I still see it, 7 hours after your post. It's possible that the community is both upvoting and downvoting it, which probably takes it in and out of automatic appearance.

Keto studies are almost always compared to other diets, which means the other diets must also be supported by science.

(I say this as someone currently on keto.)

Promise.all is a standard JS method for evaluating tasks asynchronously. It creates a single task that evaluates multiple tasks at the same time, and then it returns their results in a list.

Remember, the injections were carefully designed to kill people slowly, from a variety of causes (plausible deniability to fool the moronic sheep).

What if the virus itself was designed this way?

Was just chatting with a BofA employee the other day, and they said this was happening due to issues with Zelle connections. Zelle was incorrectly withdrawing funds. Not sure if relevant here -- just another data point.

Science did not give us the COVID vaccine. That's why all of the rational people distrusted it. If science gave us the COVID vaccine, it's much more likely it would be popular.

When I looked into this a while ago, most prescriptions for antiparasitic purposes took ivermectin once every few months at most. I think one had you take it two times in one week, then stop.

Do you have a reference for this dosage?

So if Ukraine is a federation, then which nation states make up Ukraine?

pattrn 2 points ago +2 / -0

Please help me understand what Russia attacking Ukraine has to do with Russia believing all nations should be able to go in their own direction. I'm pretty sure Ukraine would think otherwise. Literally the reason Russia is attacking is because Ukraine wanted to join NATO. Shouldn't they, as a sovereign nation, fall under the umbrella of nations allowed to choose their own direction?

Russia is waging a propaganda war just as fervently as the United States. It's amusing to see how effective Russia's propaganda war is.

His whole speech doesn't make a whole lot of sense. It acts as if people having freedom is somehow a western ideology. People are born free; that's not an ideology. Governments enslave people.

This is not a battle of differing ideologies on government. It's a battle over freedom. And I can guarantee you if Russia had its way, freedom would not be on the table.

That's a false dichotomy. Those are not the two choices. Russia is expanding its land mass to try to improve their military standing (this may even be justified, since they drew a red line years ago with NATO). While they're doing that, they are trying to spin a narrative over here that gains sympathy from people disillusioned with globalism. It's a smart move. It doesn't mean we should glorify Russia or hold them up on a pedestal.

There are only two choices, but Russia isn't one of them. You have authoritarianism, and you have freedom. Maybe Russia helps us achieve freedom, but if it ends up with us being anything like historical russia, then I'll take our brand of left wing authoritarianism any day. Russia literally killed 20 million of their own people.

This is not a fair comparison at all. You think 1,000 is mass murder? Try 1.7 million in Russian gulags alone. Best estimates are that Stalin killed 20 million of his own people. They literally put millions of their citizens in gulags and murdered them in cold blood. It's a joke to compare the two.

Just to be clear, we are on the same side here. I want the treasonous, criminal, globalist elites in both parties to be swinging from gallows. But I don't want that system to be replaced with anything similar to Russia. That would be worse than what we have now..

Sorry, but Russia is an absolute hellhole decimated by poverty, and their history is fraught with mass murder and oppression of its own citizens. Their philosophy deservedly got relegated to the history books. While I agree that we shouldn't be assisting Ukraine, I think that Russia should have as little presence as possible globally.

That's not really what happened though. He listed her credentials, and he said that he read her sub stack articles and listened to her interviews. It seems reasonable to judge someone's capabilities after that amount of vetting.

I don't see much evidence that she is an idiot. One person in this thread disagrees with her assertion that the fibrous strands are collagen. Even if that's true, it doesn't make her an idiot. Hypotheses are by definition beliefs without evidence. It's common for a hypothesis to be wrong, but it doesn't make the scientist who proposed the hypothesis an idiot.

I don't understand why it's not problematic that all of the ballots didn't have the same issue. If this were simply printer configuration, one would expect consistency. Any deviation indicates that either someone changed the configuration mid-election, or that this was targeted.

He's saying global trade is more fragmented, with countries preferring allied trade, which will result in higher prices since there's less competition. This is not referring to the New World Order (tm).
