Some of you spent Christmas dragging Sriram Krishnan through the mud without knowing a thing about him. He didn’t stumble into tech’s inner circle—he built his path, brick by brick, from India to Silicon Valley. Before you embarrass yourself further, keep reading. You might learn something. 🧵

@JMilei @KarinaMileiOk Presten atención a la evolución de H5N1. Hay vacunas y retrovirales listos, pero en primer mundo. ¿Se conseguirán acá? ¿El sistema de salud aguantaría otra crisis? H5n1 golpea la puerta, es probable que les toque lidear con ella en su gobierno.

@elonmusk This is actually your beloved conservatives. Check out their policies. You really don't read much, do you?

@elonmusk Close enough to Marx. Have you read Das Capital?

Very important concept!

@elonmusk And yet, the world still has more people than it can hold, and we are creating a future unsustainable environment. You worry about the wrong things. And ask the wrong questions, evidently.

Population collapse due to plummeting birth rates continues to worsen

@Crazymoments01 @ElonFactsX Confused.

@ElonFactsX How would you summarize Elon Musk in one word?

Elon Musk explains why he decided to build a free-speech platform: “Social media in general, especially Twitter, were eroding civilization. If civilization collapses before Mars becomes self-sustaining, then nothing else matters. Human consciousness is gone.”

@ElonFactsX You poor fool. You need yo enlighten humanity then, not heed to it's ingorance and stupidity. That's what wins when you deny knowledge, that's what is destroying our civilization. So, congrats, you're doing a great job undermining your own goals.

Violence costs the world nearly $20 trillion. At the same time, every dollar invested in prevention saves $16 down the line. The PBF is trying to help actors that work in all of those spaces to work more together to help tackle the root causes of conflict. youtube.com/watch?v=EHJKpg…

@elonmusk First, state which government.

@smalls2672 Hugs from the cyberworld. Colonoscopy preparation suuuuucks, but it's an important check up. Sorry about your rough night!

I have a colonoscopy today. Yesterday, I started my prep. Haven't ate anything in over 24 hours and drank all the laxative. It's been a long 24 hours so far of just hanging out in my bathroom. Just checked my phone and realized my colonoscopy is actually July 12th and not June 12th..... I hate myself.

@msalnacion ¿Cuál es el plan de contingencia en caso que estalle H5N1? Considerando la pobreza y el estado del sistema de salud, ¿cuál será el acceso a vacunas y potenciales antivirales?

💉 ¿Sabías que está disponible la vacuna contra la bronquiolitis para embarazadas entre las semanas 32 y 36 de gestación? Aplicársela protege a los recién nacidos durante sus primeros seis meses de vida. 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 Es importante que vos y tu familia estén al día con el Calendario Nacional de Vacunación. Consultalo en: argentina.gob.ar/salud/vacunas

@MenemMartin @KarinaMileiOk ¿Tienen un sistema de contingencia en caso de que H5N1 se convierta en pandemia? Pensando que nuestro sistema de salud esta destrozado, en el nivel de pobreza.. qué acceso a medicación y vacunas tendríamos? Un buen cuidado de la población los consagra, pero uno malo....

VISITAMOS LA PRIMERA CLÍNICA CON SISTEMA DE VOUCHER Hoy asistí junto a la Secretaria General de la Presidencia, Lic. Karina Milei, y el Ministro de Salud, Dr. Mario Russo, a la inauguración de un hospital público-privado en el municipio de San Nicolás, Provincia de Buenos Aires. A través del Seguro Médico Municipal (Voucher de salud) se le da cobertura médica a casi 50.000 vecinos que no tenían obra social, es decir, a un 30% de la población. Se implementó a través de una credencial digital, utilizando el DNI del usuario como número de afiliado. Esto permite tener un control de las atenciones, para evitar fraudes. La credencial digital, de hecho, funciona con token tal cual lo hacen todas las obras sociales, desde la web de la Municipalidad. El municipio paga solo por aquellas prestaciones médicas al vecino que le corresponden, las relacionadas al primer nivel de atención. De esta forma, pone solo los recursos en la demanda. El sector privado invierte en la oferta del resto.

Carl Jung once said: "Thinking is difficult, that’s why most people judge." Here are 11 things I learned from him:

I find it interesting that the word "science" in English has acquired a rather narrow meaning, usually referring only to the natural sciences. I have been wondering for some while now if not the shift of the meaning and use of the word "science" has had an impact on how the English-speaking world thinks about knowledge discovery, often dismissing knowledge in any discipline that is not part of what they call "science". If you look up the German translation of “science”, you will get "Wissenschaft", which means loosely speaking 'dealing with knowledge' (“Wissen” = knowledge). But it’s a poor translation, because “Wissenschaft” is about knowledge discovery in general, not about the natural world in particular. The origin of the word "science" is the Latin word "scientia" from scire ‘know’. That is, the original meaning also referred to knowledge in general, not to some disciplines in particular. Consequently, in German, mathematics is -- of course -- a science. We also have "music science" (Musikwissenschaft) and "religion science" (Religionswissenschaft) and "literature science" (Literaturwissenschaft), etc, as they all deal with knowledge in some sense. These latter examples are part of what in English is called "humanistics". In German they are called "Geisteswissenschaft", which means kind of "science of the mind" (that makes it sound like consciousness research, but I can't think of a better translation). Philosophy is also a "science of the mind", in the German sense, as it concerns itself with knowledge. I have talked to some Spanish people who have told me that they use the word 'ciencia' more in the German meaning of the word, not in the English one (not sure this is correct, my Spanish isn’t great). You may notice this sometimes online, if you have non-native English speakers, some tend to assume eg that mathematics is science, whereas English native speakers find this odd. One of the consequences of this linguistic shift seems to have been that as the English speaking world became dominant in science, the new “scientists” stopped paying attention to philosophy, as that was no longer part of their “science”. This is especially obvious in physics, where you can see this happening in the early 20th century. While physicists previously had valued philosophical discourse, they later discarded it as supposedly useless. Personally I think it’s a big problem and the major reason why the foundations of physics have stagnated. The new ‘scientists’ in this discipline seem to think that ‘theories’ are ‘scientific’ just because you can write them in maths. As a consequence, they keep on producing mathematical theories about nothing in particular. If they stopped to think about what they are doing and why it’s not working and maybe read some philosophers, we’d make more progress. The blame is partly on philosophers though because they seem to take pride in not being useful to scientists, usually not concerning themselves with any questions that physicists could actually use. Like why aren’t there thousands of philosophers discussing cosmological priors or naturalness or how to find out whether two models are “the same”. Somewhat disturbingly, I have had several exchanges with so-called philosophers of science who clearly seem to take pride in being useless, and get offended if you ask them to be useful, as they see ‘being useful’ as being the task of scientists, which they are not. And that returns me to my misgiving about the English use of the word ‘science’. This was a “short” reply I wrote to Philip’s quote from Dirac… x.com/philipcball/st…

@AstraZeneca Hey, as a current Bioethic Specializacion student, I'm wondering the situation on a H5N1 vaccine. Would it be available worldwide? Would we repeat organizational/distribution probs from covid pandemic? Are we better prepared (vaccine production would be fast?) Or just.. no. ?

Vaccines are one of the most important advancements in the history of modern medicine. We are committed to advancing vaccine research and innovation and preventing infectious disease. #WorldImmunisationWeek

@pfizer so, I don't really expect much answer, as this is social media but.. as a current Bioethics student, I wonder what the situation is on a H5N1 vaccine .. would we repeat a covid scenario in vaccine approval, production and worldwide distribution? Will we repeat history?
