@michael_hoerger N-of-1: wife brought it back yesterday from her week in New Orleans. Vaxxed in June. Feeling merely crappy thus far. She's lamenting her lack of caution versus having a wonderful time in your city.
@JPWeiland At the beach the waves that look small still turn out to be big enough to hurt me. Meaning it’s a small wave yet I’m still infected. And not enjoying the ride.
@JPWeiland All I know is some version of the virus just waltzed past my 1.5 variant monovalent with seeming impunity. Not terrible sickness-Pax helps-- but not great either. (and likely picked up from a bunch of infectious disease scientists. Oh the irony!)
@Mister_Kraken78 @VerizonSupport Are you still out @Mister_Kracken78. It comes and goes here in Chevy Chase DC. Up and then back our.
@CarlyC26 @VerizonSupport Glad to hear cause explains not just me in NW DC. Oddly a poorly attached wire came loose from outdoor box Sunday night so I just assumed same for this. Back up for now. (But AC is also still out, so clearly I have angered the Gods of Modern Conveniences).
@JPWeiland Thanks for keeping up with all of this so the rest of us can just come to one place for updates.
@andrewmccalip @GregoryJBarber @WIRED The most fun...actually the only fun...I have had on this platform in X months or more. Thanks @andrewmccalip Something feels a little steam punky here. In a good way.
@DeadsoundApp I want a panic button that plays this when activated. Or maybe here in DC play it on the lead motorcycles on Biden's motorcade.
A group chat prolly started the run on Taylor Swift tickets. Now a group chat has almost demolished the banking system. They should have never removed the group chat restrictions from Dodd-Frank. This is how the Lords of Tech became the Dukes of Moral Hazard @evanhill
The learn to code VC genius types wiped out their own troubled but probably ultimately solid bank because they were all in a group chat together and panicked.
@macroliter The scariest lab by far. I call on all bats, pangolins and civets to stop stonewalling the House investigatory committee and agree to testify.
@PeacockFlu @ImperialMed Nice work. Always trying to improve my ability to break down topics like this in a way that is accurate yet also accessible, as you do here. Also, the influenza virus is such an odd bird.
Search result "does not reflect...Bing or Sydney." Who the eff is Sydney? Apparently example of ChatBots' capacity to "hallucinate." HAL is shrooming. wired.com/story/my-stran…
@vscooper Enchantingly terrifying. Just remember that HAL would not open the pod doors. I see a potential Daisy moment in ChatGPT's future.
@kakape Feels like we humans keep pushing the accelerator to the floor on factors enabling zoonotic spillovers. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33657971/
@florian_krammer Time for a blue-ribbon panel, a task force, a study committee, a week of furrowed brow meetings in like Bellagio. A 12 pt action plan! Can't wait cause sleep podcasts doing 0 for my insomnia.
@JPWeiland My problem with @jweiland : I want to quit Twitter but he and @EricTopol and others of their ilk keep posting insightful, informed variant assessments.
@JeremyKonyndyk Thanks for flagging & worth a read. This saga continues to be a head smacking series of baffling rookie hack mistakes from an outfit that is supposed to be the pinnacle of professional investigative reporting.
This captures another stellar event in this November of comeuppances—chronicling the day to day slapstick, step on a rake, slip on a banana peel, cream pie to the face comings and goings of our boy @elonmusk. He’s a clueless comic genius—the best kind.
i spent 2 hours curating a twitter blue screenshot storyline for my parents so here u go, for your own offline friends that want to have fun: DAY 1 – ARRIVAL
@nevinmartell @TheAnthemDC @PrfctLitlBites @Ticketmaster Love your club and affiliated venues. You guys are awesome. But why not just announce a refund policy @TheAnthemDC The allegations may be murky but we lost a co-headliner & feels awkward at best to be in the cheering section. Time for some crisis mgt.
I know news of Butler creep factor not the fault of @TheAnthemDC but most bought tickets for tonights show priced essentially as double headline bill. If Beck & Feist found @pitchfork allegations sufficiently valid to cancel, we at least deserve the same option. @930
