Yeah, The Guardian wants to increase traffic to their articles, big deal. Luckily for us, we have wonderful search engines to find the page of "United in Science". On that page, you will find direct links to the report in pdf, as well as some information about who they are:

" This report has been compiled by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) under the direction of the United Nations Secretary-General to bring together the latest climate science-related updates from key global partner organizations – WMO, Global Carbon Project (GCP), UN Environment Programme (UNEP), Met Office (United Kingdom), Urban Climate Change Research Network (UCCRN), UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR), World Climate Research Programme (WCRP, jointly sponsored by WMO, IOC-UNESCO and the International Science Council (ISC)) and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The content of each chapter is attributable to each respective organization."

Enjoy the read: Hydroxychloroquine cardiotoxicity presenting as a rapidly evolving biventricular cardiomyopathy: key diagnostic features and literature review. That's a review article from 2013. But maybe you will dismiss it since:

Allow me to be a bit pedantic here, but the UK is still in Europe - unless they somehow paddled their way across the pond with nobody noticing. This being said, yes, they are no longer in the EU (or, if you want to be perfectly exact, they are in transition of not being in the EU anymore).

Actually, the UK is "ahead" per capita if you take into account the population distribution. ~80% of COVID deaths are for people above 65, which represent 23% of the population of Italy vs 18% of the population of the UK.

So, for this at-risk population, the death rate in Italy is ~1700 per million, and ~1900 per million in the UK.

I agree the numbers from China are very dubious. Based on cremation and # of funeral urns, deaths are under-reported by ~ one order of magnitude: https://www.newsweek.com/wuhan... This being said, we can take the example of another country which did a better job than the US: South Korea.

For those who wonder about the methodology, or want more than a summary: https://agupubs.onlinelibrary....

Why not offer those employees ways to fight their anxiety and neuroticism issues instead of making life more miserable for everyone else?

Incidentally, Brazil is one of the countries that has the largest inequality in terms of the gap between the very wealthy and the extremely destitute, and there is a clear correlation between inequality and homicide rate.

Luckily, inequality is not as large in the US.

I am sure you can carry 8 inch long lumber in a Smart Car: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

The abbreviation for foot is ' (prime symbol).

It is not the first time I see people (including in the home-building business) making this mistake. So in addition to have a system of units that's uncomfortable to work with, it seems that most people don't know how to write it correctly... And yeah, I come from a country which uses the metric system.

The article also mentions that the numbers are for "open helmet".

If you are concerned about noise: 1. Don't buy and modify (as you mentioned) a Harley; 2. wear a full-face helmet and close the visor. Earplugs should come as #3

The product is a memory, the application is storage.

So yeah, Samsung is producing a 512GB memory chip.

Note: I work in semiconductor manufacturing

It's basically like having comments filter set at -1. Who wants to do that, especially on Gab which advertises itself as "free speech" but is in effect a favorite of far-right or alt-right users who have been banned or suspended from other service.

I am fairly certain that all those people are men...

I remember reading something a while ago (maybe it was in Wired?) about how AI may displace disproportionately male jobs, as women tend to have service jobs that are harder to automate.

No, not "100mK" :)

The SI prefix "m" = milli = one thousandth, like:

• mm = millimeter = 1/1000th of a meter
• mg = milligram = 1/1000th of a gram
• mA = milliAmpere = 1/1000th of an Ampere
• etc.

"mil deg"? Why do Americans have to invent new units/prefixes everyday? Now how do I know if "mil" stands for one thousandth or for one million? :)

I know, nobody uses the SI prefixes for high temperatures (have you ever heard of a kK or of a GK>), and we all like shorthands, that's why the scientific community prefers to use the electron-Volt. 100 million degrees (C or K) is about 8.6keV.
