*puts on hard hat, respirator, asbestos gloves* (hey i haven't used these in awhile!)
okay. i'm seeing the same claims on my TL over & over that quite frankly, make no sense. & now they're starting to broken-telephone into each other so:
my thoughts on vaccine schedule.
but say just that. we know this works, we don't know about other regimes.
primary seroconversion takes about 2 weeks (that's why the attack rate in the trials was still high then, then fell off a cliff).
as an aside, a few things that i keep hearing that further make no sense:
it means that if 100 of you sign up for Tai-Tai's Cluster Dancing Lessons (so fresh you're guaranteed to go viral!), only 5 (or 30) of you will contract #COVIDー19 after attending.
none of this is new, we've studied this extensively for MMR: https://t.co/zRf61T1qcO
i stand by this claim, even more strongly than before: https://t.co/5YlJNPGmLO
here's a hot take: a reason, & a very important one *FOR* running a 1 dose vs. 2 dose vaccine RCT is *because* some people will miss the second dose. it will happen.

people forget.
gov'ts fuck up, under-order, fuck up distribution.
supply chains can break down.
we can yell at each other over what is optimal until we are blue in the face & we all hate each other for no reason, or...
to say nothing of countries that can only afford 1 dose/person this year.

How did Silicon Valley die? It was killed by the internet. I will explain.
Yesterday, my friend IRL asked me "Where are good old days when techies were
Where are good old days when techies were libertarians.

2. In the "good old days" Silicon Valley was about understanding technology. Silicon, to be precise. These were people who had to understand quantum mechanics, who had to build the near-miraculous devices that we now take for granted, and they had to work
3. Now, I love libertarians, and I share much of their political philosophy. But you have to be socially naive to believe that it has a chance in a real society. In those days, Silicon Valley was not a real society. It was populated by people who understood quantum mechanics
4. Then came the microcomputer revolution. It was created by people who understood how to build computers. One borderline case was Steve Jobs. People claimed that Jobs was surrounded by a "reality distortion field" - that's how good he was at understanding people, not things
5. Still, the heroes of Silicon Valley were the engineers. The people who knew how to build things. Steve Jobs, for all his understanding of people, also had quite a good understanding of technology. He had a libertarian vibe, and so did Silicon Valley

I'm still happy that I launched a paid app bcs it involved extra work:
- backend for processing payments (+ permissions, webhooks, etc)
- integration with payment processor
- UI for license activation in Electron
- machine activation limit
- autoupdates
- mailgun emails
etc.
These things seemed super scary at first. I always thought it was way too much work and something would break. But I'm glad I persisted. So far the only problem I have is that mailgun is not delivering the license keys to certain domains like https://t.co/6Bqn0FUYXo etc. 👌
omg I just realized that me . com is an Apple domain, of course something wouldn't work with these dicks
