    I take medication that's not FDA approved for what it's treating. My doctor said there have been studies done that show positive results so I'm prescribed it anyways. It works. The president was prescribed some of these drugs at the discretion of the doctors at walter reed medical center and...

    I don't see the problem with doctors trying this if they say its safe and effective at treating COVID-19. I only read the abstract but its pretty clear its worth a shot. Its the same with Hydroxychloroquine And how about regeneron? Again, I'm only reading abstracts and conclusions, but they...

    2nm transistors

    I have the 12 inch Ipad pro, not the one with the m1 chip but the one before it. I use it every day, I can't say i have any regrets with the purchase. The new one has a 120hz OLED screen i think as well.

    Speaking of the M1 chip, they put it in their new ipad pro.

    Just to make it easier on MrBobFace and so were all not nitpicking his much appreciated volunteer work, I say MrBobFace only disseminates information gathered from either CNN's MSNBC's or FOX's opinion panels.

    2nm transistors

    If the purpose of the radiation hardening is to ensure proper operation of computer systems, one way theyre already doing that is through triple redundancy. Maybe you could also build the chip to compensate for errors caused by radiation? I'd be surprised if that too wasnt already the case.

    2nm transistors

    Maybe we can look to graphene? Carbon nanotube transistors?

    IMO Human beings don't have the capacity to truly care for the entire population of this planet at the individual level. Speaking as an American, all the worlds horrors have been broadcast to us over the TV and viewed from the safety of our home throughout my lifetime, and probably (probably)...

    I know your country has a private healthcare system that takes health insurance, I had to see a hand surgeon in Cambridge once and it wasnt an NHS hospital. I think with private healthcare you just get a better experience. Shorter wait times and better appointment availability are two pros that...

    A good recent article from Reuters on the current situation and plans going forward. I just thought they had the military in the streets indefinitely and everyone locked in their homes like we saw in China.

    Foundation (New Apple + Sci Fi series)

    I used to be one of those dudes that hates anything Apple. I changed my mind after I bought the 12" Ipad Pro, its just a quality product and I absolutely love it. I think I can see the appeal of apple outside of their products being social status symbols for people. If all I did was photography...

    Heres some good reads to skim through. EDIT: Most of the stock I own is in Nvidia. I've been doing a little bit of research into the whole semiconductor industry and its all really interesting. The manufacturing process they use to manufacture the wafers is borderline magic.

    These companies keep surprising themselves. They say they are reaching the physical limit of the materials they have been using, but we might soon measure our chips in picometers.

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I mostly agree with both of your replies. Speaking to your last statement about the ICU bed availability, I can also attest to the number of ICU beds generally being limited even before the outbreak of COVID. Hospitals know how many ICU patients they may get year after year so they know they...

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I've seen questions raised over the origins of the virus because it was so well adjusted to living in humans from the get go. I'm no virologist obviously, but there are a lot of things that raise questions people have yet to be able to answer with 100% confidence. We're over a year out from the...

    I had intentions to reply to this, but I got distracted. Sorry it took so long lol. Its been a while, so all I really have to say is that I agree and its good insight into the perspective of Mr. Bobface.
