epidemiologists are now warning about changes to the regular H3N2 flu virus that might make it dangerous too.

this is beginning to feel like a game of staying in the limelight. the climatologists got attention from the media by sounding worried and the epidemiologists wanted some action too.

there is a risk that these scientists won’t declare that the problem is over because continuing to do so it gives them power to keep sounding the alarm. they don’t even need to do it on purpose. the media will track down some scientist who wants exposure because news that incites fear in people gets more clicks.

sometime ago I had a calculator app which required you to make a decent estimate of the answer before it would give you the exact result

problem is "estimation/guess calculator" searches are so vague it makes them impossible to find online

does anyone know the company that made the app and/or physical calculator? trying to get hold of the physical version for Xmas

@11112011 I wouldn't bet the farm on it but seems likely they'll manage it.

decentralising this hi tech manufacturing will chill everyone out a bit

@11112011 of course it is

can you get a viable semiconductor industry rolling before the money hose stops working?
