Thank you for sharing this updated clarification. I just shared it with that medical professional who showed me the original. Hoping to spread this clarification
There was a study that showed cotton masks can actually be worse. A medical person showed me the other day, I’ll have to ask for the link
> Maduro’s indictment marks the second time that the U.S. government has brought criminal charges against a sitting foreign head of state. The last time was in 1989, when federal prosecutors in Miami indicted Panamanian strongman Manuel Noriega on drug-trafficking charges. and U.S. military forces seized him late that year. Noriega was convicted at trial, imprisoned in the Miami area and died in 2017.

I wonder if we'll see this part of history replay itself in 2020/2021.

They added "We are experiencing an issue with Google Cloud infrastructure components" at the top, but everything is still green.

Are they unaware of which components have issues?

> Most of what you learn in uni physics is Math. But the Math is only one (outdated) description of the nature of physical law.

Is this the lack of additional parameters for the equations? All of my physics problems (only took a couple courses) were like "what if this spherical horse rolled down a hill at 34 degree decline" but failed to include friction, atmosphere. Just gravity. It always felt fake to me. Perhaps this is what you were alluding to by the "outdated" description?

I’ve lived this small and you get clever. I put things in storage under my bed, in my bookshelf, and in boxes in my closet. Worst case, I would just stack them in the open or on counters, behind the sink, and on window ledges

Sorry, but what is a ham? a HAM radio operator or something else?
> even voice can be distracting when you have to repeat variations of the same command five times and keep checking whether it actually works.

This is a silly argument, given the number of arguments that I’ve seen drivers participate in.

Triage isn’t a cure

If you're asymptomatic, would it also be positive?
