I worked valet for a party at Brian Wilson’s house in Aspen in the winter of 2004. An Australian coworker drove a brand-new Range Rover into a new Jeep Grand Cherokee, was fired on the spot, and had to walk a mile back to town. Later, the chef brought us leftover foie gras.

In 2013, The New Yorker published a piece by William Finnegan called “The Deportation Machine,” about a U.S. citizen named Mark Lyttle who was deported after a jail clerk incorrectly listed his birth country as “Mexico.” I still regularly think about that article.

A hard thing about being a cyclist who gets into an altercation with a motorist is that you can not leave the scene first. If you do, they will invariably rev their engine and charge you from behind, and then (probably) swerve around you at the last second. Not worth the risk.

Is mRNA a vaccine ubertech? Is it just strictly better than all other vaccine technologies for RNA viruses? Maybe for all pathogens? Is it ever the case that you can not identify an a target antigen on a pathogen, take its DNA sequence, and then print an mRNA vaccine for it?

THIS IS HUGE: New HIV vaccine with a 97% antibody response rate in phase I human trials. IIRC, this is the most effective HIV vaccine to date. This is based on the Moderna's COVID vaccine. Silver lining of COVID-this tech could be used for so many things.

It seems like not even a single person in the replies realizes either that Yglesias’s list is a troll, or that God Emperor of Dune is the best book in the series.
