I agree with the warnings in the article and the statement that after talking to officials the author believes that Iran was indeed behind the tanker attacks is incredible: only hard evidence is credible.

To reliably detect fake news a system should do fact checking, not calculating probabilities.

Although there is no scientific evidence, many have reversed dementia. I suggest to go to brokenbrain.com and drperlmutter.com to get yourself informed.

If one likes to continue living in a democracy one should not use votes to make somebody disappear. Not under any circumstances.

Average age by itself is not very insightful. Happiness, illness, cause of death, wars and spending on health care are more insightful and will show a very different bubble graph.

Let's simplify things: AI is nothing more than feeding a decision model a lot of data so that AI can 'intelligently' copy decisions. Doctors only have unproven theories about the causes of cancer and the traditional therapies do not cure but merely kill.

I expect that they will invest in Mill Computing which is designing a CPU which will be most likely faster than Xeon and uses 10x less power.

Rich preppers do not get it. Food is #1 to survive short term and long term. They need a large farm and a community

It is sad to see that the "positive result" is a reduction in cognitive decline. That is not being called a medicine. Fortunately, Dr Dale Bredesen has a treatment that reverses Alzheimer's in 9 out of 10 patients.
