That will absolutely boost your immune system after it kills your worms.

100%, no doubt, plenty of meta studies to that end.

But what if you don't have parasitic worms?

A Cochrane meta-analysis of 11 eligible trials examining the efficacy of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19 published through April 2022 concluded that ivermectin has no beneficial effect for people with COVID-19.1

Since May 2022, an additional 3 large randomized clinical trials including several thousand participants have been published, each reaching a similar conclusion.

Today JAMA publishes a new trial of ivermectin treatment for mild to moderate COVID-19 that addresses the possibility that the existing literature may have missed the efficacy of ivermectin because the previously tested dose (approximately 400 μg/kg daily for 3 days) was insufficient.

At a higher treatment dose (600 μg/kg daily) and longer treatment duration (6 days), Naggie and colleagues again conclude that ivermectin is not beneficial for the treatment of COVID-19.

New study shows ivermectin lacks meaningful benefits in COVID-19 treatment (March, 2024)

New research led by the University of Oxford has concluded that the antiparasitic drug ivermectin does not provide clinically meaningful benefits for treating COVID-19 in a largely vaccinated population.

Damn- no effect in any trial in the absence of worms.
This takes a particular view of leadership as chaotic, violent, and aggressive, and not as collaborative, and quiet, but still assertive.

Harris being immediately endorsed by basically all of the alternative candidates (Newsom, Whitmer, etc.) shows that her campaign has its shit together, and moving through the nomination process without conflict leaves fewer weaknesses for the opposition to take advantage of.
It’s weird that an incoherent Trump never gets called out for his ramblings that run on and on in circles. Yet Biden’s gaffes are blown out of proportion. I wish someone just called out Trump directly and told him to stop the ramblings. But nobody in his circle could do it when he was president, nobody could get him off twitter and so on.
Look at the difference in Obama's hair from when he took office to when he left. Frankly, the job is a killer.

I guess the question is if they are equally bad.

If one side will cause significantly more damage than the other, why would you not want to limit the damage?

If you have examined the political agendas of both candidates and think they will cause equal harm, then I see your point. But I don't see how it can apply to this election.
My work laptop windows crashed more times in a year than my Windows 7 install in the 10 years that I was using it (2009-2019).

Mostly due to Teams or Edge eating up all the memory, and the OS being unable to handle it gracefully.
They state: "While the Raspberry Pi 5 is fully capable of smooth 4K playback, Raspberry Pi 4 will not be able to play 4K content due to hardware limitations."

This likely depends on the codec. The Pi 4’s BCM2711 SoC, unlike the BCM2712 in the Pi 5, has hardware support for H.265 (HEVC) up to 4Kp60. However, the Pi 5 can still support H.265 (HEVC) up to 4Kp60 through software-based decoding, thanks to its more powerful CPU and GPU.
> Inflation can be addressed when my salary goes up the same ratio as perceived inflation lol.

Has it not? Mine has. Wages as a whole have. In fact wage growth has been historically robust for the last decade or so. Here's a FRED graph for "median usual weekly real[1] earnings", which correlates well to the kind of working class argument people usually make in this space: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/LES1252881600Q

Note how it has been going inexorably upwards since 2014 or so, and in fact the inflation burst turns out to be the correction to a very rapid spike in wages (due to pandemic assistance) that only corrects downward to the upward curve.

I really wish people who wanted to argue about inflation would do it with more numbers and less "lol".

[1] "Real" means "inflation adjusted" in this context

The EU needs mandates to effectively exclude Windows from applications that are even slightly critical.

As an aside, it is sickening that so many simple displays and dedicated devices with simple UIs that could be implemented as static scenarios using proper capability-based multiserver architectures (such as the leading seL4 / LionsOS) do instead use complicated software stacks based on Linux (and sometimes even worse, Windows).

The issue is whether the Democrats would lose more votes than they gain by shifting rightward. PP was providing evidence that they would not.
Yeah, I agree with you. He's not super focused on policy, and he likely skimmed Project 2025, or never read it himself. But like you said, he'll still pick many people who worked on it or who will follow it while serving as part of his administration, and that's what's worrying. I have no reason to assume his administration won't try to implement it.

Depends on why it is stuck.
First we have to git rid of our ludicrous electoral college system. This requires a constitutional amendment, which must first be approved by 2/3 of both houses of congress, then ratified by 3/4 of the state legislatures.

Since that is the only thing that has enabled Republicans to barely win presidential elections since 2000, we will not get anywhere close to passing such legislation, let alone get it approved by 3/4 of the state legislatures.

As a side note, the last attempted constitutional amendment was the Equal Right Amendment, giving equal rights to women. It was proposed in 1972, and is maybe close to finally being approved.

In the US, our democracy doesn't really respond to the whims of everyday people. Between the two party system, campaign financing, the electoral college, etc., voting doesn't really do a whole lot.

So boycotts become an alternative avenue to change, or at least another place to vent frustration.

It flip flops every few years though, like with the diversity and equity stuff that was so popular a few years ago and now getting shut down.

The average person here has zero power to affect anything at all in Washington, so yelling at companies is all we can do lol. Wall St is somewhat more responsive than our elected officials. Kinda sad, but that's the country for ya.

This has been a thing since the 90s, maybe longer. I remember walking through Caesars Palace (Las Vegas, NV) circa 1999 and seeing a BSOD on several of their screens. People will always make expedient choices as long as it works well enough most of the time.

I once had to use a bathroom so stopped in a shop, they said customers only, so I bought the cheapest thing they had, a coke. Then, while I was in the bathroom another employee, who didn't see me purchase the drink started banging on the door yelling customers only. I looked like a tourist, this was in London near Hyde park, so maybe a bad area.
There's no reason this couldn't happen. States have great latitude to determine their own election laws, including how they allocate electoral votes or elect federal offices. Nebraska and Maine can split their electoral votes. Georgia requries 50% + 1 for US Senate and Governor instead of a plurality, and will have a runoff election if no candidate gets a majority in the general election. Ranked choice would just be another method. The problem is that the two ruling parties have very little incentive to introduce this.
Because, especially for such an important role, neither factor should be a hiring consideration.

When you reduce the candidate pool to one minority you have by definition, thrown out a majority of the total candidate pool. When you reduce that pool by sex you've cut it in half again, leaving yourself with a much smaller subset of the total candidate pool.

The odds are low that the best person for the job happens to be in that smaller pool. More importantly, you reduced the pool before knowing that the best candidate was somewhere in the smaller population.

Biden picking Harris to win the black vote is a political stunt and cheapens the role tremendously. Picking a VP only to win votes implies that the role isn't actually important and that anyone winning votes could do the job. I don't agree with that implication and find that it's quite a sleight to the importance of our government and our political system.
> Third party candidates have effectively no chance as long as a majority of the country falls into the view that voting for anyone other than a Democrat or Republican is a wasted vote.

This isn't just an opinion certain voters have, it's the truth. A vote for anyone other than one of the two parties with the best odds of winning is a "wasted vote" in the sense that when the third party candidate voted for doesn't win (and they almost certainly wont) that vote can't go to support anyone else. Our voting system makes that true.

The only way a third party could ever win in under our current system would be if they managed to get a massive majority of the voters to vote for them, and a massive majority of the voters knew that the third part was going to be getting a massive majority of the votes before anyone voted.

It's extremely unlikely that a third party could gain that much support. Especially because elections in the US tend to be pretty close. The best any president has ever managed was something like 60% of the popular vote.

True today! In classical orchestra performances, that usually required the composer to insert a solo 'cadenza' section where the soloist was free to be expressive without a conductor 'click-track'.

Today, bands (esp. jam bands like the Dead) might agree to back up anyone who decides to go 'off-plan'. (These days, we can even take big samples of someone else's tracks (if they agree) and do 'covers' that are an entire re-working of their originals.)
The inflation reduction act is essentially a bundle of small things, many that don't even go into effect for years.

A lot of it is just identity. They vote for Republicans because they are Republicans. It's that simple. You could introduce a moderate Democrat that ticks a lot of Republican policy boxes, and most Republicans still wouldn't vote for them.

3 things:

1. abandon, freely. Archive, move on. work on something else.
2. simplify, harshly. cut all features. only one remaining feature to do: "release"
3. Breather, take a break, re-discover why to do the project. What are hurdles? move around them.

Lately one of my projects was dragging on, and I realised a few things: I didn't want to abandon it, but even "simplifying" made the project worthless. The hurdle was that I was trying to make it a "Product" and live that "side-hustle" life, but i really don't want a second job, so I moved around it by turning it into an opensource thing instead (still in the works of making it 1-to-1 with what I had, but it's a breath of fresh air now, instead of a weight around my neck)

I mean, how much more capitalist can one get than VC? They rely on this very status quo to make money. Of course they're not going to oppose it.

Once you're rich enough, Dems vs Reps don't really matter. But more radical movements that threaten the status quo certainly would endanger their wealth.

Capital is more fungible than ideologies, I guess. Shrug.

We the community have every ability to make another forum with different biases, but well, this one is their free service, and this one is where the discussions are at. They don't owe us anything.

That question doesn't even make sense to a Democrat supporter, it's not that simple, because that's the same no matter who wins.

I'm not arguing that voters must do anything. I'm saying that there are two possible outcomes on November 6th, and that to pretend otherwise - to pretend that your vote, or lack of vote, or protest vote, or whatever else leads to anything but one of those two possible outcomes is a fantasy. All of the work to change the options happens before the vote, not during it.

And no, your ludicrous example doesn't change that.

because we cant do that in the next 4 months as it would require a overwhelming enough demand from the electorate that a super majority of representatives in the house and senate along with the president would have to pass a constitutional amendment that is otherwise considered against their own interests, then it would need to be ratified by the states and pass through the inevitable challenges in the supreme court that seem dead set against anything resembleling democracy this year.

I remember making a comment years ago about opening PDFs in PDF.js instead of Acrobat (12 years, it turns out [1] -- PDF.js had just started shipping in Firefox). At the time, Acrobat was the standard and widely exploited, but obviously none of those exploits did anything in the browser.

Still, homogeneity isn't always bad. If I were in, say, the cyber insurance racket, I'd make any company not using U2F or FIDO2 pay up. Not all choices are good choices.

A variety of media pundits suggest such ludicrous schemes every election year; we have a recent, laughable proposal that Democrats should nominate Mitt Fucking Romney (age 77).

Interestingly, all these unity ticket proposals seem to demand Democrats bow to the whims of centrism with a split ticket; it is apparently perfectly reasonable for Republicans to have a ticket with two far right politicians, such as Trump / Vance.
