NO MORE FREE LESSONS I Told YOU!!

This article is a preprint and has not been certified by peer review [what does this mean?*]. It reports new medical research that has yet to be evaluated and so should not be used to guide clinical practice.

Testing a new treatment in.... ?!?

31 patients

Yes confirmed, You have totally no idea what we are talking about.... thanks for confirmation!

Before formal publication in a scholarly journal, scientific and medical articles are traditionally certified by “peer review.” In this process, the journal’s editors take advice from various experts—called “referees”—who have assessed the paper and may identify weaknesses in its assumptions, methods, and conclusions. Typically a journal will only publish an article once the editors are satisfied that the authors have addressed referees’ concerns and that the data presented support the conclusions drawn in the paper.

Because this process can be lengthy, authors use the medRxiv service to make their manuscripts available as “preprints” before certification by peer review, allowing

other scientists to see, discuss, and comment on the findings immediately. Readers should therefore be aware that articles on medRxiv have not been finalized by authors, might contain errors, and report information that has not yet been accepted or endorsed in any way by the scientific or medical community.

We also urge journalists and other individuals who report on medical research to the general public to consider this when discussing work that appears on medRxiv preprints and emphasize it has yet to be evaluated by the medical community and the information presented may be erroneous.

Among patients with COVID-19, the use of HCQ could significantly shorten TTCR and promote the absorption of pneumonia.

These stupid people at CNN right now seem so confident that US is going to see 0.1 million deaths. It's like... if US (hopefully not) gets to see 0.1 million deaths, Trump will come out and tweet, "told you so!".

Bitbolo's got it: This is pre-publication, pre-review studies and should be treated as such. It's not 100% bullshit out of the box (they did take the time to write it and at least document some of their methods/observations) but it's amazingly easy to make mistakes in a study and find erroneous conclusions. Small sample size, sample weighting, and a bunch of other variables can tank a study.

A great example of this was cold fusion. A lesser example was sonoluminescence which while real is not quite a "star in a jar"....

Best thing to do is see how these studies fare in peer review. In the meantime hell, if the person is dying I say give it a try, why the fuck not? Then again I'm a person who contemplates having my head chopped off and mounted on a popsicle stick because I'm dead and hell why the fuck not?

But don't start popping these pills as a proactive measure, could be a waste of time, could do harm, and could pull the pills from people who actually need them to live/whatever.

Just get a move on. People are desperate, you may have noticed.

Bullseye article on ZH. Nailed it.

Best quote:

"Don’t look now but you’ve been screwed again. The Wall Street bankers are again able to borrow at 0%, while charging you 17% on your ever-increasing credit card balance. Why aren’t these scumbag bankers announcing a three-month moratorium on credit card and mortgage payments, with no interest accruing? Because their goal is to further enslave you in debt, while enriching themselves. They will run patriotic commercials, while sticking a red white and blue dildo up your ass."

My nephew has recently been expressing interest in knowing more about how the financial markets really work. It's nice to see him thinking for himself and expressing scepticism about the system. But I don't have much time at the moment to sit down with him and explain the corrupt relationship between the Fed, banking system, govts, QE, etc. etc. Any recommendations for something which I can direct him to which explains this all for a bright teenager who is already suitably cynical of mainstream media?

Thanks to those who responded with some good suggestions, I launched some SMerits at you as further thanks. Those links should give him something to get stuck into.  I'm keen myself to have a listen to "The richest man in Babylon" - sounds especially alluring.

I am desperate after weeks of quarantine and boring price action in corn.

Saw a decent movie on Netflix:

A nice allegoric critique of the shitty capitalistic society we are were, before all this COVID shitshow, living in.

Bad news for you: any substitute is worse.

Such a shame the phukking moron wasn’t thrown out of office after impeachment.
Then again if he was and that evolution denying god preaching idiot took over
we’d all still be phucked.

I wonder what theymos's April fool's joke will be this year. He's already done done KYC, upside down text, and joke member ranks.

Corn has been far from boring in its recent price actions.

Snap out of it... filli pilli.

 You can't blame it all on one person.  There are countless levels of elected officials in the US all vying for your hard earned wages and various ways to control you; why concentrate all your energies on just one?

Good source for info on Covid19:

Usually, I don't like Trump at all, but I should say that he's at least trying to do his best. He's facing media literally on a daily basis, unlike many leaders around the globe who're only releasing stupid voice notes from their bed. Trump is stupid, but he's trying to do the job sincerely. This is better than most; see Boris, he literally shared the Zoom's meeting ID with the world a few hours back:

To be fair I think that is a piss poor app if it shows a meeting ID as the program name in the main window. Totally unnecessary once you have connected to it. The screenshot proves that it is a security flaw.
