This data is from 2006. Over 20 years, there has been substantial progress in CT radiation reduction through model-based iterative reconstruction and now ML-assisted reconstruction, aside from iterative advances in detector sensitivity and now photon-counting CT.
In clinical practice, those doses are about 2-3x what I see on the machine dose reports every day at my place of work.
In thin patients who can hold still, I've done full-cycle cardiac CT and achieved a < 1 mSv dose. We are always trying to get the dose down while still being diagnostic.
I had no shop class in my middle school years 99-2002 but technical theater is the closest thing that may still sneakily exist in many schools. I learned basic carpentry and electrical, including lighting design and sound, all in the service of making sets for the yearly plays.
The quote is “markets will tumble” by which he clarifies that it will be a temporary market overreaction not “crash the economy” like it’s 1929. Those are qualitatively different things.
He intends to make the market crash (or at least is taking actions that will almost certainly crash it), but he thinks it will recover afterwards. The first part is pretty certain with what they're doing. The second part is almost impossible to predict, because no one can really say what the break points are (i.e. how much it can crash and still quickly recover afterwards). See the mortgage crisis of 2008 for what an unexpected runaway effect looks like.
RE horizontal - there is a ribbon cable that can literally fracture which causes the Zr and Zl buttons to quit working which only really manifests when trying to use 1 joycon horizontally (personally when Mario party happens).
The repair takes about 20 minutes the first time you do it and the ribbon cable is on amazon for about $7.
"Ich war am Spielen" is not really Standard German. It's a West German/Ripuarian dialect form that people from that area sometimes use when conversing in Standard German. But yes, it does communicate the progressive aspect in the same manner that "I was playing" does in English. I agree that "nouning" the verb is an arbitrary distinction.
Even if you want to give this one to German, English also has the prospective aspect, which is missing in German (prospective "I'm going to play tennis", vs. perfective "I will play tennis").
They don’t want to vaccinate due to literal decades of propaganda campaigns turning anti vaccination into a tribal identity.
They just want some “reason” to blame others for the way they want to behave. It reminds me of the Matt Bors comic
