I'm sorry but there is scientific evidence (and was there before ) that masks don't help against coronaviruses spreading (as expected from physics).

I added two more recent studies to the list in my timeline just yesterday.

Also, recently in Italy a judge sentenced against some of these anti-covid measures, stressing that no obligation can be imposed just because of *presumed* risk (something that doesn't apply for driving drunk, where the risk is certain). At least not in Italy.

So please consider revisiting what you took for granted, thank you.

“A system can never truly stabilize. This is why utopias are nonsense: even if you design the most perfect society in which everything works brilliantly, it will still have to cope with war and meteors and pandemics and other factors beyond your control. A system can't just work well, it has to fail well.”

This should be enshrined into every design think tank between all the post-its about ‘systemic design.

It is even worse when a Nobel prize winner says Macroeconomics is basically pseudosciece and you are realize we are all victims of unbacked policies:

Do you know that latest version has a built-in HTTP server you can enable to call its API from other applications?

It supports the same API available for plugins and you can use them from whatever language that handles JSON files.

Can't wait to see what integrations with other applications or OS people will come up with. This basically turns your Markdown/Org notes into a local database you can query and write to.

I've never seen anything as brave and open as this in the note taking space:

Thank you @logseq !

We are at most, a few months away from apps with content and sharing mechanisms just not possible on Twitter or other centralized, closed-source platforms. That's when the momentum will really start to build for Activitypub and other protocols supporting federated networks. We have stop talking about it being a twitter "alternative" and start talking about is as an evolutionary step forward in global social networking. Because that's what it is.

#emacs Book mode is an attempt at offering an interface for reading org-mode files with a clean layout. It is based on the use of large margins, headline and mode-line, with leading stars and bullets in the left margin using right alignment and different symbols. All decorations are part of the header-line (including upper left colored part and right upper glyph) and messages are displayed in the mode-line. Code at github.com/rougier/book-mode

@Pat

Never seen anyone wear that stuff in 3 years.

@Pat

Are you saying they conducted studies on the effectiveness in preventing spread of infection of coronaviruses like SarsCov2?

I doubt that there is sufficient data to conduct a proper statistical study, being an extremely rare product.

@Pat

Are you implying that you have scientific evidence of effectiveness of them?

@Pat

None, scientific evidence on ineffectiveness is available before and after Covid19. On my recent timeline you can find some studies.

We like to think that science and technology are driving increased innovation and change but this research published in @nature indicates that progress and disruption are decreasing. The reasons speculated by Park, Leahey & Funk are interesting. Read more nature.com/articles/s41586-022

Study: Persistent Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings in a Cohort of Adolescents with Post-Coronavirus Disease 2019 mRNA Vaccine Myopericarditis

Abstract:
We describe the evolution of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging findings in 16 patients, aged 12-17 years, with myopericarditis after the second dose of the Pfizer mRNA coronavirus disease 2019 vaccine. Although all patients showed rapid clinical improvement, many had persistent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging findings at 3- to 8-month follow-up.
