I used to teach medical statistics to post grad doctors in the UK. One of my examples was the drop in HRT use in the 90s with UK newspapers reporting a doubling in cancer risk. That was also a relative risk, with absolute risk remaining extremely low. Both the all cause mortality and the absolute measures for quality of life were such that more women suffered and died as a result of the headline scare story.
Not an antivax article exactly, but the title alone will create concerns. Whilst it mentions 1m saved lives, it doesn’t identify the significant number who avoided long term harms resulting from COVID infection. Finally, the article doesn’t even attempt to advise the tiny proportion of people who develop the adverse effects.
Who would have imagined that decades of funding cuts and pressure to rely upon Musk would allow another nation to take the lead? (Sarcasm)
So… If someone did it the old fashioned way by telephone from a public phone, or sent out a letter, or shared leaflets, would we be looking at disconnecting public phones, stopping the postal service and banning home printers?
Just as with the battery issues, owners will be out with warranty for driving in the rain
My toothbrush was infected and taken over recently. It messaged my ex whilst I was in the pub and now I keep getting replies from her. Can I seek damages from Oral-B?
I hope that this becomes practice throuout Europe and the UK. UK ministers however will say almost anything for short term gain.
It is fascinating to read assessments of the new Chinese industry based upon comparison to lowest budget small enterprise items bought 5-10 years ago. Wasn’t this originally the same said of Japanese watches and cars? Tesla has zero long tern reliability data and lots of concerns about their failures to step up to repair faults. With electric cars, everyone is at the same point for development, except the Chinese, who have been at it longest
Oooops! Seriously, why apologize if you can draw robust comparisons that withstand fair scrutiny?
What if Musk buys the front page of the internet. There are some interesting Pro’s and Cons Edit: interesting doesn’t mean good
Accused? Probably evidenced sufficiently.
Fingers crossed that they tell him to sod off
Yes of course. He cares even less about that.
Screwing employees to increase margins will never offset his Twitter losses. Here’s the perfect example of more money than he can ever run out of, so he really is just a baby throwing toys out of thepram because he still won’t run out of money.
Company entirely reliant upon an army of hard working volunteers makes some noise about listening. Noise is just air vibrations.
Tariff slapping had been tried by Trump. Very poor outcomes. There will be a more moderated approach, but we will need to see how that pans out
Predicted for this quarter. Musk has been scoffing the idea, whilst watching them catch him and simultaneously shooting himself in the foot with his own plans.
Tories again saying / doing anything to look helpful to their core supporters. Tories largely supported by voters over 65. Over 65’s more likely to vote than younger people and more likely to view new social media as a scourge (whilst still using Facebook).
About time too. Monopolies are the antithesis of what they claim to be
BloatNosey latest version might help ( I hope).
