This isn't a 1980s cartoon.

We're talking about freakin' electricity. Come up with an actual better way to get it, reliably and affordably, and they'll gladly do that.

They aren't rubbing their hands together, chortling with glee about how much damage they will do, ready and willing to pay extra to do so.

Of course, Facebook does the same thing, putting all of its users in little echo-chambers that only show it news articles that reinforce what they already believe, creating an illusion of worldwide agreement with them, and giving their opinions a feel of objective truth.

Does it though?

It keeps putting Dem politicians into my feed, but not a single Rep politician. Huh.

I literally block every Dem politician profile now, as an experiment. But there's an endless supply ...

So yes, it has some rabbit hole algorithms. But there are clearly some odd exceptions.

So this is what the skillset interview should evaluate. Can you use the modern tools to generate good product, and do it pretty quick. Do you seem mentally stable enough to work well with people remotely, and conscientious enough to spend the time on it you are being paid for.

Do we know if these are mainly developing in the USA or elsewhere in the world? The USA actually restricts antibiotics by requiring prescriptions. Other countries that seem to have a greater variety of pathogens don't always apply the same restrictions, which can lead to more widespread use, which could increase pathogen resistance. Maybe some of these resistant strains are imported. I guess there's no way to know.

Uh oh, you said something logical and true. Prepare for the downvoting ...

The report also offers some good news: The CDC determined that the bacteria Clostridioides difficile, or "C. diff," which causes diarrhea and inflammation of the colon and can be deadly, is causing fewer cases year over year. The agency downgraded it to a serious threat, whereas it was categorized as urgent in the prior version of the report, which came out in 2019.

But ... but ... doom? Gloom? Invincible bacteria??
