It looks to me that they are ramping up YT ads because they performed well in their quarterly earnings. I think Google is more self-aware then you are giving them credit.

It may not be a risk to the young people, but they need to understand that their actions have consequences for the people around them (which is exactly why people are encouraged to wear masks). A lockdown may not be the best solution, but it surely makes it so young people have a harder time infecting those who are immuno-compromised.

Our rate of transmission is too high to do a nationwide contact tracing effort I think. We need to reduce the daily number of cases before we properly implement a contact tracing program.

The Atlantic is a neo-lib magazine that leftists and right-wingers can agree is not even worth using as toilet paper.

If you look at the NYT op-ed section, there are right wingers on there too, see Ross Douthat, et. al, as well as plenty of centrists, and lefties. National Review does not have the same diversity, and only features prominent right wingers.
Maybe I'm getting too bogged down in the op-ed section, like you say; but, it does make you think about the effect an op-ed section has on the news content as well.

Centre-right, National Review.... You made me spit out my tea when I read that. I'd ask you to go to the op-ed section, and tell me it's even close to "centre-right" and not fully right.

I 100% agree. I started using liquibase a couple of weeks ago, and the autocomplete has saved my ass plenty of times already.

Linking a few of your own tweets to youtube videos is not very enlightening. Do you have an actual sourced article stating that the CCP is illegally accessing user data?

Similarly, when copying and pasting text from the WSJ website, you get unnecessary dashes within the text. Like this: "Tra-di-tion-ally, lenders have re-quired a borrower to mail things like W2s"
