Оказался наш отец не отцом...

19. Katerine Maher from NPR being questioned on her own tweets
She is insanely woke to the point she looks like a parody. And of course when called out on it she feigns amnesia because she thinks all non-wokes are idiots so she can easily fool them. She is fooling no one of course. The expression of contempt and disgust about her being questioned by some plebes is something to behold though.

By that time, Sinwar not already planned the attacks, but had the date set on May 23th. They pretended to hold talks to dupe Israel - and it worked perfectly. He played them like a cheap fiddle. They hid and ignored all signs that warned them of the danger.

> 14. Оголтелая конспирология и антинаучная пропаганда.

Есть два замечания:
- "stratified by age and sex" - насколько в этих данных учитывалось то, что бустеры, по крайней мере у нас, впоследствии делали уязвимым (т.е. зачастую и хронически больным) категориям населения, емнип?
- Как риски побочных явлений соотносятся между вакцинацией, заболеванием у вакцинированных и невакцинированных? Про миокардит разница между 1м и 3м - около 7 раз, если мне не изменят память о прочитанной пару лет назад статье.
Monday, March 31st, 2025 10:52 am (UTC)

Второй вопрос непонятен. Если б овцинация насколько-нибудь снижала заболеваемость Смертельным Насморком, в нём был бы ещё какой-то смысл (в зависимости от степени этого снижения), — но, насколько я помню, согласно последним слоганам, vaccine is safe and effective лишь в предотвращении "тяжёлых последствий", что бы это не значило.

С другой стороны, если б они просто сравнивали частоту этих миокардитов и проч. заболеваний с таковой у чистокровных, а не с некоторым "ожидаемым значением", то такой вопрос вообще бы не возник, всё было бы автомагически учтено. Но, наверное, это было настолько политически некорректно, что такой возможности не оказалось.

Если бы только это Вам было непонятно.

Будьте снисходительней: трудно же соперничать в уровне осознания с копателями Чёрного моря...

Ну разумеется, и без демагогии Вы тоже никак.

14. "COVID-19 vaccines and adverse events of special interest" https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0264410X24001270

Внизу статьи есть раздѣлъ "Вопросы, на которые отвѣчаетъ эта статья", сгенерированный ИИ. Тамъ приводится шесть вопросовъ, пять изъ которыхъ достаточно малозначимые, а шестой вопросъ кажется важнымъ. Цитата:

What conclusions were drawn regarding the risks of neurological events following SARS-CoV-2 infection compared to vaccination?

The study concluded that the risk of developing neurological events, such as Guillain Barré Syndrome and Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis, following SARS-CoV-2 infection is significantly higher than the risk associated with COVID-19 vaccination. Specifically, the chances of experiencing a neurological event after acute SARS-CoV-2 infection were found to be up to 617-fold greater than following vaccination, indicating that the benefits of vaccination substantially outweigh the risks.


Но это вообще не является темой статьи. Въ статьѣ есть лишь одна краткая ссылка на другую статью, гдѣ приводится это утвержденiе (про 617-кратное превышенiе риска). Это утвержденiе не является выводомъ данной статьи, никакъ не соотносится съ текстомъ статьи, и вообще у меня впечатленiе, что это одна фраза, вставленная въ статью по требованiю рецензентовъ или изъ политическихъ соображенiй. Но ИИ "сдѣлало выводъ", что именно это является важнымъ вопросомъ, на который отвѣчаетъ статья.

Да ну, Биби у власти с небольшими перерывами последние пятнадцать лет, а Ликуд и все двадцать пять.

42. Оттуда же:
Recently, fans also criticised the Sex Pistols and new singer Frank Carter for changing the word "f****t" to "loser" in their song New York.

Вот секс-пистолс, прогибающиеся под цензуру и есть самый крутой культурный пиздец.

> Britain ‘must rely on immigration’ to compensate for falling birth rate

И чем это отличается от политики Путина? (вопрос риторический)
«Указ Президента РФ от 09.10.2007 N 1351 (ред. от 01.07.2014) "Об утверждении Концепции демографической политики Российской Федерации на период до 2025 года"
В целях замещения естественной убыли населения в результате возможного сокращения уровня рождаемости предстоит активизировать работу по привлечению на постоянное место жительства в Российскую Федерацию иммигрантов трудоспособного возраста.
К 2025 году предполагается:
обеспечить постепенное увеличение численности населения (в том числе за счёт замещающей миграции) до 145 млн. человек...
обеспечить миграционный прирост на уровне более 300 тыс. человек ежегодно.»
Wednesday, April 2nd, 2025 07:52 pm (UTC)
В чём разница между ядом и лекарством? В дозировке.
Парацельс
Что касается не миграции вообще, а замещении коренного населения, то с точки зрения замещаемых в такой миграции нет ничего хорошего.
