I don't know enough about genetic engineering or the industry to explain it, but for some reason a lot of drug researchers use specially tailored tobacco plants to help create experimental drugs. Back during the Ebola fiasco a few years back the guys who made ZMAPP used the same sort of process.

Ayyy let's get into weirder poo poo like that if you want more tests in your upstate NY community, you need to produce more POSITIVE test results, so you're playing some kind of strategy game with testing results where you will only test hospitalized cases that you KNOW will turn out positive before they die. And if you do so you'll get more tests To spend only on people you know will test positive

ryanrs posted:I've been contemplating breaking shelter-in-place to go camping. The places I go aren't real campgrounds, just 4x4 roads in the desert where I can shoot guns and build fires and stuff. On one hand, if I wear gloves when getting gas, is it really a problem? On the other hand, lookit all these dumbasses self-owning, I don't want to be like them. Speaking as someone who provides EMS and SAR response on federal public lands, you probably shouldn't. What you are describing is not profoundly irresponsible compared to people who are going to crowded beaches, etc., but you could potentially require assistance of some kind, which means you could potentially wind up being an infection vector to whoever has to come help you, which could reduce available response personnel for everyone else. A lot of us are primary or backup EMS resources for neighboring communities in addition to the public land unit we work for. If we get sick we can't make EMS runs when people in those communities start getting sick. The same things that make it a good idea from the perspective of social distancing, namely remoteness, increase the likelihood that something could go wrong. Compared to like grocery shopping or whatever it's pretty low risk. But you have to grocery shop and you don't have to camp. Federal public lands remain open right now solely on account of political pressure from Trump appointees. If it were up to career staff inside BLM / FWS / NPS etc. these places would be closed both to reduce people traveling to visit them and reduce staff contact with the public. Our public health officers have recommended closures and been shut down by Sec. Bernhardt and his staff. All that said I don't really think individual choices will get us through this. Public health policy on a large scale will. So given you're not talking about coughing on people or going to a megachurch, I dunno, live your life and do what you think is right and responsible. It really shouldn't be your responsibility to make these kinds of choices; since we have decided to leave it up to everyone to make up their own minds just act with as much good faith as you can.

I am so often wrong that I am expert at it. But I have learned to quickly apologize... and deliver real apologies. "I was wrong, and you was right, sorry about it. I don't really have a excuse. I am a idiot". But despite the above, I have that strong desire to be right and ignore anything people say that is against what I believe. I asume the people that have never seen apologizing is like this, but can't break through that crust.... so never ever change opinion, even exposed to facts. I know a lot of people like this, that never say "sorry, I was wrong". You are not wrong that had people post here with chud viewpoints people will engage them, but I think it would quickly devolve in verbal violence. It would a lot of luck and the people involved in the discussion to be the better of us to it to lead to somewhere productive and not just noise.

Phone posted:my example with the toilet is 100% relevant because you don't replace something that is reliably working Just Because. humans spawning 40 new assholes would require a new and different approach; however, since humans haven't spawned 40 new assholes, you can still use the same toilet that still works. you're hand waving and pretending that "legacy" systems are encased in amber, never changing from the days of the 1980s. they're modern systems capable of modern workflows and are 100% compatible with the advances in automation and deployment. the mainframe has been "dying" for the last 35 years, yet core functionality across many different sectors still use them. yeah cobol is still around because it works. are there better alternatives from performance, price and "dev quality of life" perspectives? sure a lot of them. nobody building a new system will even consider cobol as an option. but are the gains worth spending a ton of time redoing from scratch something that is working fine and risking loving something up in the process? probably in the long-term yes but its a close call.

Kazak_Hstan posted:Speaking as someone who provides EMS and SAR response on federal public lands By the way, I've always wondered what the rescue response is if I pop a PLB on a BLM dirt road in the desert, say 5 miles from the highway. It's a modern PLB that sends GPS coordinates. Ranger drives out in a pickup? Helicopters? (This is just for my curiosity. I know not to push the button unless it's a life threatening situation and self-rescue isn't happening.)
