@Dan_Ramos nah that's what actually happened, but it's in mm, pretty tiny change

in the rest of the source article they bang on about how it's effecting people by the coast - erosion by waves and the sinking of tectonic plates are the reasons they give, which seems a bit beyond human cause

Definitely, for a long time he was the person I would most like to meet in real life.

Never meet your heroes, they say, I think it's also better to not follow them on Twitter either.

@jcbrand @augustus @lain I think he strikes a much harder pose in twitter

love his books though, will always have a soft spot for the guy, hugely influential in how I think/act

That post is a nice example of the level of understanding and sophistication of the average Covid vaxxer about the risks involved.

Like the polls that show how liberals vastly overestimate the lethality of Covid.

>In March 1939, Neville Chamberlain issued a war guarantee to Poland. If Germany attacked Poland, Britain would fight on Poland’s side.

>Fortified with this war guarantee from the British Empire, the Poles stonewalled Hitler, refusing to talk to Berlin over German claims to the city of Danzig, taken from her at the 1919 Paris Peace Conference.

>On Sept. 1, 1939, Hitler attacked and Britain declared war, a war that lasted six years and mortally wounded the British Empire.

>And Poland? At Yalta in 1945, Winston Churchill agreed that a Soviet-occupied Poland should remain in Stalin’s custody.

@jcbrand @augustus @lain and he has a point
> I want to be able to be as flawed as possible while remaining antifragile
so on his own terms I'd say he's smashing it

the good thing about his methods is that they are robust to his conclusions:

if you watch this and ignore his bias, keeping in mind what we're seeing in myocarditis and mysterious deaths correlated with the vaccine, the conclusion speaks loud and clear despite his opinion.

@Pat @lucifargundam your callous arrogance is matched only by your ignorance.

I wish you good health, in all seriousness.
