Norway did really well and is usually compared to sweden by everyone and the dog, no mask mandate there!! So masks are not the only thing on the plate.

People seam to not understand the value of selff driving. It is common to commute 2 hours a day that's 10horts a week, if we are awake
16 hours a day that 110 hours a week, we are talking about essentially prolonging the life with 10 years of the time we…

Not more dangerous than all the morons that drive today in our roads.

When one consider the issues the FSD has, one can note two things. i) 99.9% of the road network is solved. ii) in the cases
of difficult intersections it just takes one encounter of the fleet to ask the driver to take over and show what to do and the next…

Current State of Self Driving is probably my favorite channel. FSD still has rough edges but after viewing the talks at AI DAY it is
unquestionable that it is just a matter of time before we can start reading newspaper while commuting to work. Note Waymo

I was calculating the total cost of owning a Tesla compared to a gasonline car in Sweden. A Tesla model 3 is in principle as expensive as a gas sedan volvo or wolksvagen, But if you remove gasoline costs in Sweden, Tax reduction and Environment premiums…

No good news for ivermectin

This looks like well performed study, no paper yet, but it is basically the only RCT result that seam to have enough people to be relevant.
There are a few more in the pipeline but I do not expect too much from them now.

Yep that can be an explanation, but such things can be the result of chance and this paper are suggesting fraud. Things are so conflated and political that I feel sorry
for people that produces studies that so easy due to chance…

(Quote from THHuxleynew)

The politics are nasty, but one problem I see in this article is that they do not mention or discusses that many studies that show no effect uses too young population and
seam unethical as the study is under powered. It's just the…

"The records of how much iron was in patients' blood contained numbers in a sequence that was unlikely to come up naturally."

my question is now, did they go out on a fishing expedition or did they post before-hand what checks they will do. You see
if you…

As a side note, thanks to covid we have started to have virtual coffee meetings, and the chat medium is sometimes lovely
and fun as your discussion is empowered with a better overview of the discussion and one can add references. To make my point enjoy…

(Quote from JedRothwell)

Sweden gives 1 million doses to poor countries, that's 1/10 of the population say 20 dollar per dose and we are talking about 2dollar per swede. That peanuts. But we should give 10x as much to make a dent, but…

To balance the HPV vaccine info these researchers I point to are believing that vaccine do good, just that our process to handle adverse signals may be corrupt or less than optimal, it look like there was never a serious follow up of the signal that was…

This was an interesting read About possible HPV side effects Not sure how this has aged.

(Quote from THHuxleynew)

Well it goes both ways and nobody nows I think that on this both sides are both sensible and both can be right, just that now we are talking, I believe about probabilities below 1/100, as I said, a new…

(Quote from JedRothwell)

Actually yes, we have much more control and understanding of a nuclear facility than a vaccine and the cell biology, I think you have an overly rosy understanding of this and that makes me suspicious - actually when people are…

(Quote from JedRothwell)

yeah on the probability 1/100 I would agree but when we discuss 1/10 000 or smaller things are really are difficult. I remembered that the Nuclear experts here in Sweden was claiming just what you are saying now, that the design…

(Quote from THHuxleynew)

Yeah, but when you weight one small probabillity to another you must understand that there are unknowns that can ruin your risk assessment. This is e.g. long time effects from the vaccine, contaminations etc etc. To compare,…
