  1. What advantages would offshore have? How about providing the historical data/trends? That depends on multiple factors. It’s being implemented in the arctic and in Antarctica, so latitude is not inherently a showstopper
  2. Which hasn’t happened, so it’s not an example. It’s conjecture. It’s made up, and as such not constrained by facts.
  3. ! Moderator Note You’ve already been told you aren’t allowed to advertise your pet theories in other threads, and you can’t build one speculation on top of another.
  4. And yet, in applying the equation, we see that the force on the current-carrying wire does not depend on the field generated by the wire. The current gives all the information we need. IOW you’re confusing the equation with some description of the details of the interaction That’s exactly what you expect if the force depends on the current.
  5. Is there a link to an actual journal article?
  6. No, it’s not. Actual trans people as examples would be examples. I’m not a medical doctor. I have no basis to disagree. What actual threat exists? Give an example. It won’t be about an olympic athlete, because zero trans athletes have competed since the IOC included criteria to let them compete. Then what is it about? Then give examples of this.
  7. The people making them never seem to provide evidence, opting instead to tap-dance around the issues and/or focus on perceived slights when others don’t just credulously buy in.
  8. It may be there's no new actual science, and people just digested the numbers. Deaths per million (total) exceeds 1000 in a lot of countries, and the number of these clotting cases is significantly smaller than that. As you can see from the graph zapatos shared, you've currently got ~5 deaths per day, per million, and it has been higher (and could go back up). Not vaccinating has a worse outcome than clotting, assuming the vaccine is the cause.
  9. Yes, that is also true. Can you see that these are distinct sentiments?
  10. ‘It’s a very special picture.’ Why vaccine safety experts put the brakes on AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 vaccine https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2021/03/it-s-very-special-picture-why-vaccine-safety-experts-put-brakes-astrazeneca-s-covid-19 Scientists don’t know whether the vaccine causes the syndrome, and if so, what the mechanism is. “Everyone’s scratching their heads: Is this a real signal?” says Robert Brodsky, a hematologist at Johns Hopkins University. But vaccine safety officials say they did not take the decision lightly, and that symptoms seen in at least 13 patients, all between ages 20 and 50 and previously healthy, in at least five countries are more frequent than would be expected by chance.
  11. It's a mystery how you reach this conclusion from such a straightforward statement P RS: X J: I agree P RS: You think X is not true?
  12. So this means you are exerting an additional ~80 N of force (+8 kg display) in order to raise your body. This number will vary, depending on how fast you do this. Doing it faster requires a larger acceleration, which requires a larger force. You would see this if you jumped. 57 kg (~570 N) is not the weight with no forces acting. Gravity as acting on you, as is the normal force of the scale on you, and you are exerting a normal force on the scale. i.e. that's what you are exerting on the scale with no additional effort. There is no point in this example where you can say no forces are acting on you.
  13. "U.S. to share 4 million doses of AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine with Mexico, Canada" https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-usa-mexico-exclusi/exclusive-u-s-plans-to-send-4-million-doses-of-astrazeneca-vaccine-to-mexico-canada-official-idUSKBN2BA22S
  14. I'm not asking for your explanation. I'm asking how you are actually doing this measurement; i.e. I want an explanation as if I were going to try and replicate it myself. You stand on the scale and it reads 57 kg. When you reach up like you're picking fruit it drops to 8 kg?
  15. This is kind of irrelevant. Your scale reads a value, and we can compare those values, since g isn’t changing How do you measure just your calves?
  16. t0 can be any arbitrary time. Physics doesn’t have an absolute t=0; it doesn’t work earlier than about 10^-43 sec.
  17. ! Moderator Note No, physics doesn’t work this way. Only external forces can cause an acceleration, and it has no effect on mass. You need experimental evidence for your claims. You’ve been asked for it, and haven’t provided any, despite multiple references to your experiment. Do you have an experiment? If you don’t answer this question, as your next action in this thread, it will be locked
  18. No measuring instrument has unlimited precision, so all such measurements have uncertainty/error.
  19. First point? I said nothing about the issue. You seem to be making a rather large extrapolation OK. And relativity is physics using coordinates within spacetime, which is perfectly consistent with what I said.
  20. I’m sorry, I don’t understand. The implication is that these statements are related. Informing you that you’re breaking the rules is neither disagreement nor a personal attack. Pointing out that you have not posted evidence is neither disagreement nor a personal attack.
  21. You haven’t even established that the goals haven’t been met, nor quantified “outrageously higher” You’ve been asked for evidence, and you’ve responded with hyperbole and trying to move the burden of proof to others. Experienced at mRNA vaccines? No. “At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, no mRNA drug or vaccine had been licensed for use in humans.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNA_vaccine So their vast experience at ramping up production to get hundreds of millions of mRNA vaccines out the door is zero.
  22. "Low yields" sounds like "lower than expected" rather than "we knew this would happen" Again you make a claim without backing it up. https://www.everycrsreport.com/reports/RL32655.html On October 5, 2004, Chiron...notified U.S. health officials that British regulatory authorities had suspended production of influenza (“flu”) vaccine in its plant in Liverpool, England, due to vaccine safety concerns. A shingles vaccine had shortages a few years ago because they couldn't ramp up production fast enough. And here's one about the mRNA vaccines, which rely on special ingredients, which have been in short supply https://www.vox.com/22311268/covid-vaccine-shortage-moderna-pfizer-lipid-nanoparticles We’re still racing to make a special type of lipid, a relatively unknown but critical component of the vaccines being manufactured by Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech IOW, evidence be damned. Not needed when it's inconvenient! Which you could claim if you saw the contracts, and knew who got priority and who paid more. But you admit you don't have this information.
  23. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/12/us-tops-100-million-covid-vaccine-doses-administered-13percent-of-adults-now-fully-vaccinated.html "The U.S. on Friday topped 100 million Covid-19 vaccine doses administered, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention." We've been going at > 2 million jabs a day recently 110 million doses as of today's reporting https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2021/01/28/960901166/how-is-the-covid-19-vaccination-campaign-going-in-your-state I was using the numbers as an example, but they are roughly in line with what I had been reading about the gloom and doom articles about how nobody is going to deliver what they promised. (The articles which also mentioned how production has been ramping up; it's pretty shortsighted to try to extrapolate linearly when you acknowledge it's not a linear process.)
  24. No formal initiative yet, other than donating money for manufacturing the vaccine, but “If we have a surplus, we’re going to share it with the rest of the world,” Mr. Biden said this week, adding, “We’re going to start off making sure Americans are taken care of first, but we’re then going to try and help the rest of the world.” https://www.nytimes.com/2021/03/12/us/politics/covid-19-vaccine-global-shortage.html Which schedules, in particular? The ones I'm familiar with are for the US, citing a number of doses to be delivered by the end of March. And since it's not yet the end of March, we have no way of saying they have failed. One can extrapolate from earlier numbers, but since the companies are ramping up production, a linear extrapolation will not be accurate. i.e. providing 2 million doses a week in February does not mean next week's delivery will be 2 million doses. As with iNow, I'd like to know how you know this. How you know they overstated their ability to ramp up production, which could run into any number of problems (e.g. was any slated to take place in Texas or neighboring areas, which had serious weather-related problems recently? How could one anticipate this when the contracts were signed? There are multiple scenarios similar to that which could be in play. Supply constraints. QC problems.) The US just hit 100 million doses administered, last week. Those doses are coming from somewhere.
  25. You’ve mentioned QT twice now, without connecting it to time perception.
