@stux lolol "CEOs who actually dont do much"... This is so out of touch with reality.

Dont get me wrong the argument that people who do dirty work are underpaid is fine, and i have a lot of respect for those workers. But if you think a CEO, the person who created the company and rests on their decision making shoulders to keep it alive, doesnt do much then you are very VERY disconnected with the reality here.

I dont think I ever met a CEO who didnt work more hours than anyone else in the company, take more risk (financial and other kinds), or have to deal with more stress, than a CEO of a succeeding company...

All that, even if you do everything perfect as a CEO, its still a gamble if your company succeeds, and since your usually also the owner that means its likel climbing mount everest just to put all your money into a slot machine.

My god that looks like an awful language... dont get me wrong maybe its actually fine.. but seriously lisp syntax, the uggliest and hardest to read syntax of the common choices outt here, to replace latex... i thought hte intent was to be as easy to use as markdown but as powerful as latex...

No for me one look at the example code for this tool sent me running.. I love functional languages like haskell but lisp-like formats are just offensive to my delicate eyes :)

@lupyuen

@johnabs

Org mode is great but its not intended as a generic document creation tool with all the formatting power of latex.

@lupyuen

@lupyuen damn you you posted the wrong link!

@lupyuen I need tbis so so bad

Why woukd that be naive? There is no penalty for them to say they were forced to change their wording against their will.

@post

No one is denying issues in research or even potential issues from corruption more generally.

Instead of the passive agvressive nonsense just start a seperate topic on it and tag me, i have always engaved with your nonsense so far.
It just has no place in this thread being a tangent and irrelevant.

@vixxo @post @feld

I think common sense will lead most to realize masks are probably useful for many but not all airbornse diseases. There are reasonable ways to reason about it where masks could even cause a greater soread of some diseases, maybe, when used by the general public and used improperly (whicb lets face it is most people).

That said i think we can all agree we just dont have good studies that can show it was effective in the case of covid, but we do t have evidence it was ineffective either.

@post @vixxo @feld

None of the articles here were oart of lancet gate. If you want to argue about it as a seperate issue feel free to make that post. But that discussion has no place in this thread.

@post @vixxo @feld

I could easily just enail the authors and ask if thats the case, and i am certwin thry woukd tell you you are wrong, again, and im also certain youd fibd some new even more convoluted way to tell yourself you are right.

@post @vixxo @feld

The ironic thibg is the actual wording of the reciew, whicb is usmnarized to "we dont have good studies to draw any solid conclusions about the effectiveness of masks" is itself an antimasker win. But by trying to manipulate the study and claiming it shows masks have 0 effectiveness is so blatantly dishonest tbat you took sometbing tbat could have been a win and instead just used it to discredit yourself.

@post @vixxo @feld

Where do you get thst from.. their original version quite clesrly states what i said. Ut people misinterprited what they said to erroneously claim they meant what you said.. so they are changing the wording to be more explicit so people like you dont try and put words in their mouth like you did.

@vixxo @post @feld

Jesus christ the confirmation bias is off the charts with you post.

@vixxo @post @feld

Thank you. Now thst post has been clearly told in direct terms by cochrwin review thst he was wrong and what i and others said about the interpritstion is accurate lets see if he admits he is wrong... i higbly doubt it.
