…is an attack on us all.

How can society prepare?
A eulogy.
I’ve driven a stick all my life. I’ve never bought a car with an automatic transmission, and I hope my next car will be a stick as well, because the BMW is getting long in the tooth. Beyond the aesthetics described here, it’s good theft insurance, because most young people don’t know how to drive them.
A long but interesting critique, demonstrating that it’s worthless.
This is hilarious.
I’ve been saying for decades that I’d never raise a kid in California; they should be raised someplace with weather and culture that will make them tougher, and then be allowed to move there. But now the state has provided another reason.
The NIH, CDC, and FDA (not to mention the Department of Agriculture) have been a public-health disaster.
This does seem promising for organ preservation, but it raises the issue (as cryonicists do) of when is someone dead? If it’s not information death, declarations are intrinsically premature, if the person can be put in an ambulance to the future.
Basically, pretty much everything.
The call out, explained.
