@SciencNews Book recommendation for anyone considering seeking a PhD in the sciences (has been updated, but original edition is from 1993, so not a new concept): https://t.co/cUmylOKl9l
@TJTackleberry@ZazCarla@RandyEBarnett Does “who belong to the families of embassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States” stand alone? Or qualify “foreigners, aliens,” so only such foreigners or aliens were excluded? To me, latter reading seems more likely, but it’s ambiguous.
@climatepaige@deedydas Fair games have clear rules. Fine to say high GPA/SAT are necessary but not sufficient, but then what is sufficient? Why is there so little transparency? If it's random (above a threshold), why not explicitly so (e.g., lottery)? Must it be inexplicable (or even ineffable)?
@IfesinachiMD@deedydas Are you saying the link you posted is the personal statement of the Reddit poster's son? If so, what's the basis for linking the two?
@LuizaJarovsky This is hilarious and must be allowed. Any dissenters should be condemned as the uptight, anti-fun whingers they are. Attempted humor always ethical unless grossly negligent (even then, often still ethical).
@savanvyas91@AkaashSingh “Fake lies”? Explain that - when a lie is fake, is that a truth? Also what’s a fake account? Genuinely curious - do you think I’m a robot or some Russian or Chinese stooge? Also, why are you so against comedy - I had assumed you’re just a Modi stan, but is there nuance?
@savanvyas91@AkaashSingh Strange given how much brain your mom has given me. (You won't understand that statement, given you don't like or understand humor. I look forward to your forthcoming angry insult, as you're not clever enough to say anything else.)
@aravind India drug manufacturing is poor - so is China's. No requirement for ongoing, onsite monitoring by FDA of overseas generics manufacturers; it's self-certification and occasional on-sites that can be gamed. Look into Ranbaxy scandal and related corruption. Not a one-off.
Good luck and good riddance. Doubt China will let you take advantage of its military spending and plunder its tech companies, citing digital markets/privacy regs. If not Trump tough love, Mr. Xi will gladly get you to heel beneath his boot. We don't care - you've declined so far you've nothing to offer.
@_BlondeKing@atalovesyou Founded by people fleeing Europe’s dysfunctional, autocratic, oppressive BS. Don’t replicate that nonsense here. If you love Europe so much, perhaps go back, Frenchie.
@samrosentweets@Athan_K Sure. Though I don’t know that that’s economists’ fault, and rather than shoot the messenger, I welcome their attempts to run experiments and produce data as to whether various flavors of UBI are palatable given the costs if scaled.
@samrosentweets@Athan_K “Significant” does not mean large. Just less than 5% chance of seeing this effect, even if effect size is minuscule. E.g., may be marginally more likely to make rent, but once paid, have less in hand for other expenses, so not feel psych/financially better off.
@OPRisely@nicknorwitz@CollinRugg If serious, recommend more research first. Do you understand different size/density lipoproteins, LPa levels, difference between LDL-C and LDL-P, the lean mass hyper responder hypothesis, etc.? If not, you have far too little information to take extreme steps.
@RoKhanna Outrageous - the Commander-in-Chief of the US Air Force should direct them to clean it up immediately. Wait . . . who and where exactly is the Commander-in-Chief of the US Air Force right now?
