@eevblog@Matt_Camenzuli 80% was more the standard. With the exemption set at the top 1% level of wealth. Wealth === power. A hyper wealthy elite is a cancer on democracy.
@eevblog Yeah, getting life insurance on the open market isnโt for the faint of heart. We tried once a long time ago. Too many parents & grandparents dying of cancer for us to afford it. My fallback plan was to put the wife through grad school. If I didnโt make it, she could make it.
@Grady_Booch Back in the late 90โs, helping my wife study for her PhD in neuroscience, I became aware of the chasm between organic neurons, and what were called neural networks. A single synapse had a crazy amount of complexity and non linear functions.
@mohitnk_@Nithya_Shrii Yeah, no. Iโd been working at companies where the workforce was spread across a continent, or the whole planet. Iโd been on video calls at every hour of the day since 2016. The pandemic just proved that our offices, and long commutes, were superfluous.
@memoirofmen @Nithya_Shrii You obviously never spent much time around microbiologists. They knew all along that touching everything everywhere was bound to make you sick.
@Melo_Malebo@judiboybaby My dad was 66 when he noticed pain in his back after moving into a new house. Went to a chiropractor. After several treatments which yielded no improvement, he consulted with a real doctor. Lung cancer has metastasized to his spine. Dead three years later.
