You know the shift of online buying. There's a big story behind it. Were they begin. Yes that's the beginning part. Yeah people go. Wow okay interesting. Tell i want to learn more about that. Think about is it possible literally just thought of this. I've done this myself yet for us is what what is your words story interesting. So probably a verb urban by amplify. Yeah it's really tough isn't that's it is You know but. I bet i bet we could come up with this. Listener could come up with some things and again. This is not your whole presentation. this is the beginning of it and then you can fill in that with the story. She'll definitely not the whole yummy. Good point definitely not. This is like yet this. Is that what this forces you to do. Though is get down to that. Eighty that really essence of what you do and then build the story around that. I think people get cluttered.

"Start to get put an arms but there's this techniques protesting vaccines called challenge. Trials you know had. We don challenge trials with volunteer subjects. We could have had the vaccine role that six sooner and so in theory we could have had the vaccine out in summer of twenty twenty. And maybe we could've saved hundreds of thousands of lives a challenge trial. You know controversial concept because it is a trial in which participants would be intentionally challenged with the infectious pathogen. In order to accelerate our knowledge of vaccine efficacy in the context of an artificial introduction of the pathogen in this case a challenge trial of kovic would mean giving somebody covert as part of the trial. Not waiting for them to get it in the community so on that next time around. Should we do the challenge files and take on kind of the consequences that implies so there's two streams of debate year one is the ethics of doing challenge trials in just the other is the practical implications and the benefits of doing the challenge. Charles on the ethics. The vigorous debate is around the issue of is it ethical to expose someone to a virus that is potentially deadly even in a younger person or inflicts a lot of morbidity that you have no therapeutic for remember we would have been doing these challenge trials early in the course of the pandemic when we didn't even know that steroids were effective at preventing severe disease. We didn't have any effective therapeutic so there was the ethical debate around at then. There was the practicality of it. And what i saw on a border pfizer so i was watching this process very closely. Was that the debate around challenge. Charles was going on and before it got settled. We had already advanced so far with the vaccine that it kind of made the challenge trials not relevant anymore because we already had clinical data. And that's in part because the trials enrolled very quickly. The trials read out very quickly because people were motivated to get into them. There was a lot of disease around people who were being vaccinated. Nearly trials were being exposed to infection. We did probably some of the largest. And maybe the largest outcome studies ever undertaken in the history of modern drug development. Each trial defies trolley. Trial was about forty five thousand patients the largest vaccine trial. I remember from being. An fda was rotavirus backed. I think was around sixty thousand patients if you combine visor murder. Trial look at ninety thousand patients. That were enrolled collectively two trials. It was the largest clinical development. Enterprise ever taken for developing a drug. There have been some drug studies at enrolled tens of thousands of patients but oftentimes not all the patients randomized and we got full blown outcome studies across a broad age continuing across a diverse population. So i don't think that the challenge studies would have obviated those outcome studies. We still would've wanted to see the the vaccine in a large population now in terms of should we consider challenged as in the future. I think future drug development in these settings could look very different because we we were at a technological inflection point with covert of covert had happened three years ago we would have taken a corona virus to would have grown it in cell cultures. Who would have figured out a culture that it could grow and grow it up. Who would have inactivated it. We would cleaved off its proteins. Use those proteins to basically formulate a vaccine if covert happened three years from now i think these. Mr a fully synthetic approaches where you're developing a vaccine entirely from the genomic sequence of the virus.

What Brazil's New Social Media Rules Mean for the Internet
"President. Jaya bolsonaro signed a decree on monday that temporarily bands social media platforms from removing many types of content including misinformation about cova nineteen and the country's upcoming presidential election brazil's new rules appear to be the first in the world to make certain types of content take downs illegal under national law even as other national governments around the world implement rules that force social media companies to take down more types of content proactively. What do the rule say the decree targets. What bolsonaro presidential press office called arbitrary removal of content including accounts profiles and posts under the new rules. Tech companies must only remove posts if they fall under a narrow set of definitions including terrorism threats of violence sexual crimes and cyber attacks and less. They obtain a court order. The measures would prevent social media companies from easily removing content including medical and political misinformation. Bolsonaro has repeatedly posted misinformation about covert nineteen and has claimed. That voter fraud would be the only explanation if he loses the upcoming october. Twenty twenty two presidential election. Something pollsters say is likely facebook. Twitter and youtube have all previously removed kovic misinformation shared by bolsonaro. The rules are bad news for brazil. Havi air palero. The argentina based policy director for the digital rights group access now told time adding that the decree ties the hands of internet platforms to deal with hate speech disinformation campaigns and coordinated harassment. We need democratic rules to make content moderation and platforms more transparent fair and accountable palero said but these attempts from illiberal politicians are far from that and aim only at giving a free pass to anti democratic speech.

I'm like oh i'm like everyone is mask i you know what i mean like. It's just like we don't know what to do. Because there's there's now like the rules are now confusing and changing all the time and as the writer of this piece points out like it was easier when the rules were very clear. Like kids are remote schooling. We're not doing gatherings. You know what i mean like. Whenever it wasn't like full lockdown it sucked but at least we knew what was expected of us And now no one knows anything and it's now on us to be constantly making these decisions and no matter what you do your second guessing yourself and this article just really resonated with me and just really pointed to the exhaustion that i think so many of us feel again whether were parents or not But i think with kids going back to school. It's been really heightened for a lot of parents. He's just like constant decisions that we have to make. I was listening to an episode of the daily from a few days ago where people called in with questions about kids and kovin and the one of the questions was about sending unvaccinated children to daycare. Who are too young to wear masks and the reporter was basically like well. You just have to evaluate like is the most important thing to me that my kid definitely doesn't get kovin is the most important thing that my kid doesn't bring it back to like immuno-compromised person in my household or is the most important thing to me. You know having kid in daycare because they've fallen behind and we don't want them to fall behind him. And i was like okay but also like what about the fact that parents need to work and like having kids. Sometimes you don't have the luxury of having that framework. And i don't know it just like there's just no great choices right now. Tld get no. There's not an as as has been established. And i was going to talk about this Upcoming episode that. I kind of went off on a my instagram last night. Because that's kind of my only social media outlet and it just on me like i have personally been operating in a such a high alert state for over a year now year and a half a cont. My you know even right now is record. This my heart's racing over everything we are all in this kind of high alert panic state whether your parent or whether you are not i. You're all trying to keep ourselves safe. Loved ones friends kids. Who have there's so many factors that go into this. Just trying to keep yourself safe from kovic is is enough and it's yes just i just ice people are so angry and they're so many high emotions and like i've noticed online to like in the groups i'm in everybody's kind of lashing out like it'll be like i not just about any sort of lighthearted celebrity content article that most people would be like ha ha. Everyone's like oh my god speak. I think it's because this is our only outlet for the fucking feelings that are brewing around inside of us just like we. We're just. I feel like i wanna have like really unlimited forgiveness for myself and for others right now because it's just so hard but then i also really angry in so many fucking ways and my anger as over whelming and i'm tired like the other day i couldn't function and i just stared at bird.

I don't know if this marathons going to happen. Walking around wearing my mask. I'm single and i'm thirty three and i am just like what am i doing with my life. I constantly feel anxious and something somewhere along the way on tuesday morning. I just decided not to get any of my anxieties. Any of my effing attention and holy shit. Was it invigorating. Like i really can't tell you. The last time that i didn't spend unnecessary effort like thinking about someone who hadn't treated me right whether that's like in business or in my relationships or i wasn't freaking out about the things that i can't control about covert or i wasn't thinking about a a deadline or something that i was like worried about making and i just went through an entire morning like maybe four or five hours just living my damn life and i like giggle because i'm like shoot. It shouldn't be that hard right. Like i started to ask myself like. How can i do that more. I keep citing this stat when it comes to cove it and i don't want to spread misinformation but it came from the daily and on the daily they said that one percent of vaccinated people will get cove again. I don't know if this is still relevant. Do not spew. This into the world's. I'm just telling you that that was what they said. Which means that ninety nine percent of vaccinated people and i am vaccinated will not get cova vid so i asked myself all the time even though i have this like bomb being anxiety the center of my body about thing like why can i not live my life like the ninety nine percent and on tuesday i felt like i did like i and i wasn't.

"There's a coveted or i'm going to get sick or whatever it is and i can repeat that circuit over and over again but realistically the circuit the cells themselves trigger for ninety seconds. And so am i. I might become aware that my kid is not home. And i can feel that anxiety and it might run for ninety seconds but then the physiology of that fear is actually out of my bloodstream. So i can now rethink that thought of. Oh my gosh. my kid is not home. i need to feel fear. Or there's a covert out there. And i can feel fear or and let it run itself again Note but the point is that this is these are cells in circuit and the natural circuit runs and kills itself. It dissolves itself all say after ninety seconds. But then i can rethink a thought. That re- stimulates that fear circuit. And i can run over and over. And that's that's a lot of what's going on net right now with kovic is we are are on alarm alarm alert alert. We're not allowing ourselves to calm that circuit and instead the circuit has been re triggered in and being re triggered. And we do have some choices in recognizing that. That's what i'm doing. I'm running a circuit over and over. It's my stress. Circuitry is being stimulated And and it is weakening it's actually weakening my immune system to be caught up in that fight or flight anxiety circuitry all the time such a good inside. I never knew that that it goes away. Ninety seconds. oh you're bringing it back or else it's gone right. Yeah and so we. We have a lot more choice over. What's going on in all of our circuits. When we recognize that you know i can i can. I can look at myself as this. Everything's floating around up inside of my head or i can recognize these are cells. And what do i need to do in order to make myself feel better and i might need to go walk my dog..
Stuff To Blow Your Mind
"kovic" Discussed on Stuff To Blow Your Mind
"Someone second premise is that bringing a person into existence is not bad for that person even if their existence is flawed because being caused to exist is not a reduction in the quality of one's existence. There is no higher baseline from which you are reduced by being caused to exist in the first place. Does that make sense. Oh it's not like you were doing great before you existed. And then once you existed that that was like a downgrading of how you're doing and then the third premise would be that some acts of bringing people into existence are wrong anyway. Imagine for example. Creating an underworld space colony where the people are going to be haunted by space morlocks that hound them every waking. Second like you would think it would be wrong to create that place right Yes yes. I'm trying to envision all the ways that we can reach the space morlocks and changed now bring space morlocks and human colonists together but But it does sound pretty daunting. Yeah and so. This is a another problem along these lines to to a lot of philosophers. All of these premises seem correct. But they can't all be right at the same time they're in conflict with each other so kovic weighs in on this. He says in the case of our dystopia in space colonization thought experiment. However the horrible future is not actually bad for anyone. If it weren't for our dystopia and space colonization activities all those billions of people beyond earth who've miserable lives barely worth living would not exist at all from the point of view of those future people. Their miserable lives are still preferable to the alternative which is not having come into existence at all. The fact that they were brought into their miserable existence was therefore not morally bad for them. And and this basically is the second premise. I mentioned a minute ago that it's not bringing someone into existence can't be bad for them because it does not constitute a downgrading or reduction in their quality of life they didn't have a baseline. Start from yeah so kovic. He ends up..

"Black hat. I would have to say that the show. This year has been better than i expected. I was a little concerned that It was going to be one hundred percent vendors and no actual participants but is it turns out it was. I think the same ratio that it normally is just a bit smaller and smaller was okay. This year it was nice to have a More incident show To really get to spend some time with people. Things weren't too crowded it was easy to have conversations and You know really the the community. I think needed this to To be able to catch up you know. I heard from a number of vendors on the show floor who said that while it wasn't particularly crowded that it gave them the opportunity to have more indepth discussions than they might otherwise been able to have had. Yes hundred percent right. I mean that. I couldn't agree with that set of it more. I mean it you get to spend a little more time with everyone You get to have a little more. Indepth the conversation and You mentioned the show floor specifically the show floor when we say things were a little smaller. The show floor Fits well into that category at so you have to wonder if that big booth you know. Big booth vendor approach is really going to stay around as we navigate. What's becoming this this new reality here. I think that You know a lot of vendors are probably going to see that standing in a booth may not be as effective at sad being able to again. Meet up at the local coffee shop or grab lunch with With some of their prospects and customers overall how did you feel the tone was of of the show this year where people in good spirits despite the sort of shadow that kovic has cast on so many things. We're we're we're people spirits up. Yeah i think so. I think people were happy to get back together..

Have you lost any friends. Have you lost any family. Has there been any irreparable damages. Do you think to to your relationships. I don't know about irreparable you know. I'm not willing to throw friendships away altogether. I think they're kind of put on the back burner and maybe we'll find our way back to a friendship outside of kovic eventually And if we don't then you know maybe the friendship fizzles or the. I don't speak to the family member if things are so polarized between us But at this point. I'm not i don't want to throw away relationships I just kind of hold them at a distance for no more about uterine. Do you feel like there's going to be some long lasting impacts for your relationships from this pandemic oh i have no doubt i have no doubt I you know as as we're navigating friends who want to come visit We've kind of we've made our explanations of you know outside is preferable for everyone even if they are vaccinated. Just it's summer. It's nice that everyone's stress goes down. 'cause we're you know we don't have to be masked up or anything like that. But i foresee if i come across people who might be choosing not to or having to navigate that conversation of oh. Hey we haven't actually talked about if we're vaccinated or not. You know we are where you is that i imagined i. Those are going to be kind of stressful conversation You have some friends. I talked to all the time and we all got excited and for sharing dates.

"Yeah and you even mentioned like some of the uses for like a theory. Him and bitcoin. And i've even seen doors coin people. I think there are certain. I my memories. Failing me of course at this like right. Read this moment. But i know there are a lot of ways that you can actually use it to pay for trips and travel expenses and things like that like all sorts of different ways that we never even thought were possible and so i would imagine. I don't know you know more about this. But i would imagine that As the sort of trickles out more and more people getting cryptocurrency they're more Ways we can use crypto currency for things we do on just like everyday basis. Yeah and that's the hard part is that you know for it to actually be quote unquote money. It has to be like very easily transactional right like could i go by my coffee. Could i you know buy something with it and like make fast so i don't know if you've ever used crypto or even transferred it but like right now bitcoin If you wanna do a bitcoin transaction takes about twenty to thirty minutes to process and so like you send this money quote unquote money right. And you're just like in this limbo like did it go through is it. Did i screw up the thing like is it there. And so it's very nerve wracking and it takes time now when you look at our current financial system right like you swipe your visa card and like you think that transaction happens because it kind of does but you know on the back end of things. Visa is actually fronting you the money to the merchant and approving the transaction in real time right but like if you know it goes into like a hold and like the actual transaction doesn't clear for like a day or two or three days right and the same is true with sending. Ach payment right or use zell like it's not nothing's instant so bitcoin i would argue is better than our current system in some ways in twenty minutes it is settled done hundred percent done transaction. There's no waiting times between minutes is still scary. A. theory has moved that time lineup to a few minutes but it's not instantaneous. But we're getting to the point now where you know. There probably will be a crypto that enables fast transactions and things and. I think that's really what's holding back mass adoption. It's one it's how fast can you do. The transactions and then part two is how easy can you make it for a user and and their services out there that are making a very easy coin. Base block fi. You know these companies that are coin based just went public right like they're becoming major institutions and the reason they're becoming so popular is because they are literally making this complicated technological stuff super easy for just the everyday user. And what do you think happened. Because a few years ago we had a big Crypto currency kind of surge. And then things like really just sort of died down and then we got back into it again last year. What do you think happened did just need to catch up all of the above riots technology and it's also the economics of things. I think you know we're at this point in their economy. Where pretty much every assets overvalued Were very scared of inflation And so and you know the the the world order is kinda been you know up ended by kovic right and so i think things like a Blockchain based currency like a bitcoin or a theory of you know are showing potential..
