Even better would be if the CDC had never posted it on their web site in the first place. I don’t know what they were thinking…they had to have known it would only serve as red meat for the anti-vaxxers.

I really don’t like to defend RFK, but the CDC does have a section on vitamin A:

Note the July 2024 date, so it was posted during the Biden administration. The WHO has similar info as well.

Yes, and such intelligent systems can also optimize for pedestrian traffic,

In the US, these types of “intelligent” systems almost always degrade pedestrian traffic quite severely.

Because the US wants oil contracts. US foreign policy has always been driven by the fossil fuel industry.

Can’t die of ebola if it wasn’t tracked by the CDC. (Taps Forehead…)

Zoning impacts the cost of housing. In my city, an average house costs millions of dollars – because the zoning does not allow apartments to be built.

I’m sorry, but if Democrats were really interested in reducing housing costs they would be working on zoning reform. Trump has no control over local zoning, and the really HCOL places are all in “blue” cities.

A very large chunk of that budget pays for college education. In terms of academic outcomes, the US university system is second to none in the world.

I believe 4 of the 5 Cybertruck fatalities were from a single crash. While the truck may indeed be dangerous, there is hardly enough data yet to draw conclusions.

That’s a good question, but it seems Canada tariffs will not be broad-based like US is doing. Instead limited to items that are either not critical consumer items, or can be sourced elsewhere at similar cost.

Not sure what practical difference there is between a sponsorship and an ad. Anytime I try to listen to my local public radio, each and every segment starts off with “this report brought to you by …blah blah blah…”

“I am concerned that NPR and PBS broadcasts could be violating federal law by airing commercials,” Carr wrote. “I have asked the FCC’s Enforcement Bureau, with assistance from the FCC’s Media Bureau, to initiate an investigation into the underwriting announcements and related policies of NPR, PBS, and their broadcast member stations.”

Such an investigation is long overdue. My local NPR station broadcasts nothing but commercials.

I don’t know about Obama inauguration, but for the Biden inauguration both Google and Amazon donated a lot. Jeff Bezos also gave $100 million to the Obama Presidential Library.

Indeed, here are some of the donors for the Obama inauguration: https://www.opensecrets.org/obama/inaug.php

Why should taxpayers subsidize someone’s dumb decision to buy a Florida beach house?

Idiocracy

While I know things are generally more expensive in Switzerland, $685,000 is crazy expensive for just 18 kW (48 panels).
