I think people genuinely forget that multiple strains of flu are also still from the 1918 pandemic.

Let me reword that: I didn't know until recently people only got 2 doses. I thought 3 was standard.

I didn't even know you only got 2 doses. I got 2 doses of the MMR vaccine by the time I was 6 and then when I was 16 (this was verified by my doctor). I was genuinely surprised so many people in my age range only had it twice.

There are some signals that just the two childhood doses of mumps vaccine are not enough to hit a high enough VE to prevent outbreaks in congregate living. It's smart to get an adult booster before college, and especially if there's an outbreak locally!

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.

It is absolutely asinine that ad networks can declare drawings of fat people (for example) as adult content and strip us of funding for refusing to remove it from the site, but their advertisers can have downright RAUNCHY ads showing in general areas. Or they do NOTHING to curb malverts

Those numbers are from last year. Gas and groceries are sky-high. Rents average a minimum of $1100, usually for a studio, and houses average *half a million*. What is the Alberta government doing about this? Having a referendum on separation+being more racist instead.

I will say, small creators - despite having copyright from the get go - do not have registered (with the copyright office) copyright in most cases. It would probably require a class action in that case. Unless of course the artist is big enough for their own legal team.

It also contributes to this binary perception of disabled folks (esp those of us with disabilities affecting our brains) where we're either awful, villainous monsters or precious innocent babies who could do no wrong, and both extremes suck. Disability is morally neutral, we're all just people.

A lot of you can't stop conflating cognitive, psychiatric, & neurodevelopmental disabilities with immoral behaviour, bc it's easier to pathologize ppl for making shitty choices than it is to acknowledge we're all inherently capable (intentionally or not) of causing grave harm. You're not immune.

The National Post is using language that seems wildly irresponsible and dangerous here Citing ancient “Jewish law,” it labels Avi Lewis as a “rodef” The ultranationalist extremist who assassinated Yitzhak Rabin rationalized his killing on the same basis: www.theguardian.com/world/2020/o...
None of this applies, however, when a Jewish person presents a clear and present danger to the Jewish community. When that happens, Jewish thought is much more forceful: you must prevent the perpetrator from
causing harm.

Jewish law developed two character sketches to describe such scenarios. The first is known as a "mosar" — a Jewish person who informs to oppressive
authorities, potentially leading to the imprisonment, torture or death of community members. The second, called a "rodef," refers to a Jew who is actively pursuing another with the intent to harm or kill them. In both scenarios, the law is clear that a Jew is duty-bound to step in. Protecting the community and its members is the most important thing.It was around then that Yigal Amir, an earnest law student, made up his mind to kill the prime minister. Later he would insist he was not swayed by extremist rabbis; he had reached his own decision that Rabin - through his willingness to cede territory and to allow the creation of a Palestinian Authority, with its own armed police force - was a rodef and therefore a legitimate target. He got a weapon easily enough. With his brother, Amir was working on the creation of an anti-Palestinian militia. Nor was access difficult; on at least three occasions before the rally, Amir attended public events where Rabin was present. He was waiting for the right moment: he didn't want to shoot and miss.

Just 'being able to do it' does not qualify you for employment. For that you have to be able to do it quickly, reliably, repeatedly, in the way you're instructed to, for hours a day, five days a week, under any conditions, all year round, and be prepared to take on other additional tasks.
