Ah, but getting your tweet actually read is a whole other ball of wax.
This rather condescending article seems to define "conspiracy theory" as something that is always by definition untrue, rather than something that may ultimately be true but is "officially" considered untrue at the current time.
It is of course a simple matter to disapprove the notion that all conspiracy theories have been false. Many prove to be true.
I remember well when the notion that LIBOR looked manipulated was ridiculed as a conspiracy theory. Years later it was front page news.
Are most conspiracy theories false? Probably.
But the notion that "talking to conspiracy theorists" starts with a presumption of superiority of one's own assumptions is to be fundamentally unscientific -- and is often merely an appeal to authority.
Take the death of Jeffrey Epstein: I place myself squarely on the side of the conspiracy theorists. How would you "talk to me"?
Check out (the now unfortunately named) CoronaSDK from (the also unfortunately named) Corona Labs. It's all Lua based and is now entirely MIT open sourced.
One of the easiest to code cross platform development languages there is.
Exactly. Offering to "help pay" for housing, education or whatever, is how prices rise stratospherically.
I wouldn't hire this person. But I'm glad he found a job.

If any subgroup is given extra capital, the test will appear to work. This is patently obvious to anyone with half a brain.
Wealth is always and everywhere a measure of disparity.
And if you use an offshore VPN?
Do you have to actually spend that $5000? Or can you just have it "raised"?
Antigravosaurus was here.
Thailand is no longer a particularly cheap country. Girls want cars and condos from their Western boyfriends. And they don't want old men.

As is household debt.
America is one of the only nations in the world that taxes its expats also. You can't escape the USA. You are the property of the tax farm.
From a blood sugar and insulin perspective (which is a large part of the inflammatory perspective), it is literally the fineness of the carbohydrate particulate, the addition of refined sugars and the extraction of fiber -- all of which raise the glycemic index. If you look at fast food, this is part of the "process" by which food is made soft and palatable and shelf life is often increased to boot.
You're correct though. The term is very unclear and doesn't help people. Generally speaking the refinement process of carbohydrates and sugars means glucose hits your blood stream faster and increases inflammation. (These refined carbs are also more addictive, reduce insulin sensitivity over time and lead to obesity)
For an anti inflammatory diet think raw foods, whole grains, high fiber, quality protein, low amounts of complex sugars, NO refined sugars. Stay low on the glycemic index.
Basically, make your body do a little work to metabolize calories. No easy street.
Also don't fry with vegetable oils. Consume plenty of olive oil and fish oil.
Rich people are the only ones who will get to reproduce.
This is a crowded space with A-list players like Psychology Today.
How do you differentiate yourselves?
This article provides no evidence of frequency.
It was also made possible entirely by Macromedia Flash. (Purchased by Adobe the same year).
Negative rates are nothing other than a complete failure of the financial system. If we go there it's the beginning of a very dark, very oppressive era. Crypto and metals will shoot the moon. And shadow economies will sprout under every rock.
Actually there's been a distinct lack of very necessary China criticism for a few too many years. Don't let the denormalization of some actual reporting throw you.
Revenues are irrelevant. Profits aren't.
I've always hated the concept of "revenues" in commerce. Honestly, who cares what your revenues are? Profits are all that matters.
