Battle of Britain turned the tide. And China suffered the most.

Samsung.

South Korea? Japan? Free France? Taiwan? Israel? Australia?

"The US ended its combat mission in Afghanistan is December of 2014"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_War_in_Afghanis...

The U.S. military carried out at least a dozen operations, including commando raids and airstrikes,

in early March 2017, American and Afghan forces launched Operation Hamza to "flush" ISIS-K from its stronghold in eastern Afghanistan, engaging in regular ground battles.

"In January 2015, United States Forces began conducting drone strikes in Afghanistan under the direction of the administration of the United States President Barack Obama against Taliban militants".

American forces have increased raids against "Islamist militants"

Throughout 2015, the US launched about one thousand bombs and missiles at targets in Afghanistan

"Despite US airstrikes"

"U.S. forces have been carrying out operations with Afghan forces"

"According to Defense Department statistics 9 U.S. service members were killed in action"

"US aircraft conducted around 30 air strikes in Helmand Province"

You get the point.

A little misleading there. The demand was to turn bin Laden over, not let him escape.

Stronger and more flexible. So this is a actually a victory?

"Taliban leadership offered just that, and we invaded anyway."

Do you have a link for this?

Winners: China, Pakistan, Russia, Iran, Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.

"The enemy of my enemy is my ally".

It's still a humiliating defeat for Mr. Biden.

Regardless of your partisan status. This does not look good.

Even CNN is questioning the administration: https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2021/08/15/blinken-intv-...

What do you think?

Could go much higher than that.

“This is manifestly not Saigon”

Sure looks like it.

Might expose spy methods?

"but the fact of the matter is that cookie tracking data has NEVER been associated with any leak or data breach that resulted in personal harm"

Do you have a link for this?

Which flag?

This does look promising: responsive without a cumbersome license. What I would like to see is a 3d scatter plot that can handle up to 100K points. The view would not be limited to, and I hope I am describing this right, a "static camera angle with the viewed center of mass being rotatable". I'd like to be able to fly/zoom in to near a dot and click on it for more information. Ideally you could put it on github.io and accept user files of the form : x,y,z coordinates in first 3 columns and a description in the forth. Column 5 could be optional styling information. The user could upload file or paste in the data. When you click on the dot, you get the description. That would be very useful. Users could grab your html+js, hack it up and re-generate an html page with their data hardwired into the HTML/js for sending to collaborators on a science project. This could help people share their, for instance, t-sne plots in a very easy manner.

From the paper ( https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S014976342... )

[we sought to integrate findings from a wide survey of the extant literature on s/g effects in human structural and functional brain imaging, using the search terms “sex” and “gender” in lieu of “sex difference” and “gender difference.” ]

So they excluded studies that found differences.

Any idea what time COIN will start trading?

There are other results, too. For instance ... https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/jmv.26478 "However, the SARS‐CoV‐2 host tropism/adaptation pattern has significant discrepancies compared with other CoVs, raising questions concerning the proximal origin of SARS‐CoV‐2. The flat and nonsunken surface of the sialic acid‐binding domain of SARS‐CoV‐2 spike protein (S protein) conflicts with the general adaptation and survival pattern observed for all other CoV" . https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/coronavirus-lab-esca... : “There are indeed many unexplained features of this virus that are hard if not impossible to explain based on a completely natural origin.” Richard Ebright, a molecular biologist at Rutgers University, wrote that he’d been concerned for some years about the Wuhan laboratory and about the work being done there to create “chimeric” (i.e., hybrid) SARS-related bat coronaviruses “with enhanced human infectivity.” Ebright said, “In this context, the news of a novel coronavirus in Wuhan *screamed* lab release.”

I couldn't find anything on Fox News.

How did the pioneers survive?

Can these Linux phones prevent the mobile phone company ( i.e. Verizon, AT&T or the owner of the tower) from tracking you and selling ( or "renting" ) your location information?

From the link: "Research from the 1990s2 showed that identical twins are more likely to share a sexual orientation than are fraternal twins or adopted siblings."

Study here : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9549243/

"We present an overview of behavioral genetics research on homosexual and heterosexual orientation. Family, twin, and adoptee studies indicate that homosexuality and thus heterosexuality run in families. "

The actual study: https://science.sciencemag.org/content/365/6456/eaat7693

Result: "five autosomal loci were significantly associated with same-sex sexual behavior".

Alternate source for Revolut and GME news: https://conservativeinvestingnews.com/2021/02/02/gamestop-bu...

"British financial technology startup, Revolut stopped users from investing any further in Texas-based video game retailer GameStop and movie theatre chain AMC. The challenger app attributed the move to new restrictions imposed by their technology provider, the US broker-dealer, DriveWealth, LLC."

U.S. per capita GDP ~= $60000

World per capita GDP ~= $10000

US/World ~= 6

So, yeah, labor performed in the US is 6x world labor.

Robinhood has a conflict of interest. Citadel owns Robinhood. Citadel owns hedge funds that shorted GME. Robinhood blocked purchasing GME.

Something is fishy in all of this.

Bloomberg points this out: "particularly effective at stopping severe disease, preventing 85% of severe infections and 100% of hospitalizations and deaths" ( https://finance.yahoo.com/news/j-j-single-dose-vaccine-13045... ).

"Based on the result, J&J plans to file for an emergency-use authorization in the U.S. in early February. The drug giant’s top scientist said this month that he expects a clearance in March, and that it would have product ready to ship then."

On the other hand, Duckduckgo news is much better than google's.
