The infant contracted it before they could get vaccinated.

How do you think the infant got it, from the measles fairy?

That virus was a gift from someone they came in contact with, so probably a family member.

And that family member was given it by someone else, who got it from someone else, who got it from someone else, and so on, and so on.

A whole long line of people that each bear responsibility for killing that child by not taking personal responsibility and getting vaccinated. Any one of them could have halted the transmission of the virus on that trajectory that lead to killing that child at that time. It only took one of them, but none of them did the responsible thing.

Most of those people didn't know that child, never met them, and are still blissfully unaware that their lazy selfishness killed a child. But that doesn't absolve them of responsibility. They killed a child.

What an awful thing to say about troglodytes.

Which is what makes him the perfect sacrificial lamb to justify a military crackdown on protests and such.

UG Solutions (UGS) defended its employees' qualifications for the job, saying it does not screen people out for "personal hobbies or affiliations unrelated to job performance".

I had to submit to a background check for a job sitting at a desk writing code and had absolutely nothing to do with security or carrying a weapon. Pretty sure that being a member of an anti-Islamic biker gang would have disqualified me.

No. My memory is that the English language article was a bit unclear on the details and had several indications that the author didn't actually understand the technology, but someone said a Japanese language article did a better job of explaining it.

Brine and fresh water doesn't make any sense, because you're spending energy to create fresh water with the brine as the waste. Just turning around and recombining it to make evergy again is stupid. You can't even get back as much energy as you used to make the fresh water.

But, spending the energy to create the fresh water, letting people use that water as normal, collecting their waste water as normal, treating the waste water as normal, and then, instead of just dumping the treated waste water into the sea, recombining it with the brine to make energy makes a ton of sense.

There was an article the other day about a new plant in Japan that takes the brine from a reverse osmosis plant, and reverse osmosisizes [?] it again back into treated waste water to generate electricity. As I recall, it's not full scale and meant more as a test/demo/proof of concept, but apparently it works ok for a first attempt.

Is there really an increase in autism or increase in awareness of neurodivergent/autistic people?

That's exactly what the person you're replying to meant by...

“increase” of cases (not just diagnosis).

Conclusion

Homeopathy is based on magical thinking. It does not have even the barest toe-hold in science or reality. In spite of this it has been extensively researched for its clinical effects. While most of this research is of poor quality, there is some reasonably high-quality research, which consistently shows that homeopathy does not work.

The extremely low prior probability combined with the negative clinical evidence is devastating to homeopathy. There is simply no rational justification for further investment in this pre-scientific and disproved notion. We do not need further research. No government should fund homeopathy, pay for homeopathic treatments, fund research, or even approve homeopathy in any official capacity. This means that homeopaths should not be licensed, and homeopathic products should not be approved.

And yet homeopathy still enjoys the support of most governments. This is largely based on a misunderstanding among the general public as to what homeopathy is, combined with lobbying by homeopaths and supporters of unscientific medicine.

Science clearly needs a stronger lobby.

Micro-dosing, so extreme homeopathy.

No, the other way around.

In micrososing and with this peanut thing, there are actually molecules of the thing you're taking in the solution, just very small amounts.

In homeopathy, there isn't any. At all. Zilch. None. Squat. Bupkiss. Nada. Elvis has left the building. Who? Dave? .... Dave's not here. This parrot is no more, it has ceased to be, it is bereft of life, it rests in peace. This is an ex-parrot.

No, just those that ingest way to much or inhale to much of it into their lungs.

That's cool, but it's not homeopathy. That's micro dosing.

For it to be homeopathy, the peanut proteins would need to be so diluted in water, that hundreds of Olympic swimming pools full of the solution would be unlikely to contain a single molecule of peanut protein. All that's left is the water infused with 👋👋PeAnUt EnErGy👋👋.
