@BeatGreatFilter@allenanalysis There's no evidence this crash has anything to do with the injury - she earned her spot and decided to race in site of the pain, it's that simple. Downhill skiers crash all the time, it's part of the sport and fear of it is why so few people can compete at that level.
@Logically_JC (2/2) Now imagine you pay the same tax rate as the people in those densely populated states, but Presidents couldn't care less about your needs because how you vote makes no difference.
@Logically_JC (1/2) The alternative is worse.
Imagine you live in a state with a million people. Nearly all citizens in your state vote the same way., yet your vote is moot because the President will always be decided by densely populated states along the coasts.
@goranopacic@awscloud Aurora offers a more than DB operation. Multi-region global replicas with automatic failover is huge for disaster recovery. Not to say no other operator can provide that or you can't build it yourself, but with Aurora it's essentially free (effort, not cost.)
@Xanntastik@ClutchPoints His helmet was coming off because of the play. He did finish pulling it off and then celebrated, so I think it should have been flagged, but I understand why it wasn't.
@ClutchPoints Article 1. Prohibited Acts (d): Any violent gesture, or an act that is sexually suggestive or offensive.
While subjective, it's easy enough to argue shooting motions constitute a violent gesture.

@___E9___@CarlBMenger Just because gold exists does not deflate the value of it. The gold has to be in the market to effect the market price. Diamonds are probably the best example. No gem could be less scarce, but De Beers holds back supply so the market treats it accordingly.
@ann_mcnitt@keith_giles @micah_arsham @wsbgnl@mtosterholm@CIDRAP Well, I won't hazard a guess as to why people I've never met might do a thing. The CDC necessarily downplays infections because there are potentially deadly outbreaks all the time of all the things. If alarms were sounded for everything, no one would sleep! #monkeypox
@ann_mcnitt@keith_giles @micah_arsham @wsbgnl@mtosterholm@CIDRAP I understand why you disagree, but the fact is, data is king. Hospitalizations and deaths attributable to COVID have dropped to rates similar to other respiratory diseases. CDC response reflects that present reality.
@keith_giles@ann_mcnitt @micah_arsham @wsbgnl@mtosterholm@CIDRAP .. describes every active respiratory virus. The fact that people are particularly worried about this one is due more to its history than its present reality. CDC is reacting according to the actual threat versus the perceived threat - as they always strive to do
@RitersOfRohan@RepublicofTim@NussbaumAbigail@ThatJakePC@morelandwriter People change in response to events in their lives. Would be fine to envision him as a decent guy who grew jaded as a defense mechanism, but thru Leia, Luke, and the rebellion found a tribe that allowed him to drop his guard and be himself
@adlangx @codinghorror Govt's role in crypto should be educating people about it (including the associated risk.) e.g. There's no limit to how much virtual armor you can sell in a video game - it's for entertainment purposes *only*. Any investment strategies based on it are equivalent to gambling.
