There are so many stories I could tell. About why planes changed from four engines to two. Which is why I sport them. Everything about planes is analogous to computer security. Everything they learned about not killing people is perhaps the most important work that has ever been done.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

🙋♂️ I was in *the safety trial* for (the original) Gardasil HPV vaccine for males. And I can assure you that I was like this before I got the shots. I can also confirm firsthand that vaccines are tested for safety more times and in more ways than most people will ever be able to comprehend.

It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.
