Saw that. Interesting

I would too. We are long overdue for an honest conversation about how much government we can afford.

Then have them voted on.

Constitutional crisis averted.

I'm seeing very little in the media about the lasting effects of COVID-19 on many patients. Pulmonary problems, cardiac problems, kidney problems, and other life-long ailments.

I saw something about this but it was in context that these life long after effects occur in many viruses such as the flu. They don’t know yet if it’s more prevalent yet but if more victims you will see more. Wish I could find the article.

How long does that bird has to wait before it can fly again? I watched the video to the end hoping to see it fly but it doesn’t by the end of the video. How would that rabbit come out of the cloaca later?

What? Nobody contacted you yet?

I'm retired, son.

Congratulations to these two patients and their healthcare providers.

What’s the statistical significance of this two cases? Very much looking forward to some systematic clinical trial results.

Yep. Mine is set to 140.

I agree they need a look, but Trump needs to be careful about saying those who failed in their duty need to be held accountable. Those are very subjective terms and he has so many vultures circling over him.

Yep. That is a truly menschy thing to do. There will likely be a lot of those available soon.

I'm waiting for @Larry to reply, "Ok Pelosi, ladies first..." 🤣

Worth a try sometimes, just don't invite your cardiologist to supper...

BTW, as an example of things we don't make...That mill at one time had five paper machines, making colored paper, food wrap paper, popcorn bag paper, cardboard, writing paper, envelope paper, etc.

They now only run one of at the most, two machines, and only make a couple of types of paper.

Where's the other stuff being made?

Give me three guesses.

First two don't count.

What’s the modern day analogy for this?
Close the old MP3 and open the new MP3?
Trash the old MP3 and download the new MP3?

If rare earths are actually rare, isn’t it better if China draws down their supply first?

Sounds like they’re the cheapest game in town.

It was an Amdahl machine, it was their (Amdahl's) first machine capable of a Gigaflop. This was early 80s.

And it was not a single processor, it had many CPs. I don't remember exactly how many, my fuzzy recollection is that it was hundreds, not a few or a dozen. I don't remember them competing with anything Cray made.

I believe it used the same air-cooled processors, the 470, that was current in their mainframes at the time. The 470 was the competition for IBM 370 that ruled the world at that time. Air-cooling was a big deal, the IBM mainframes were water cooled and that added to expense and complexity.
