Not a joke, they really think that doing billions of full body scans will reduce healthcare costs and make people less anxious.
Any scientist not on the payroll will tell you the opposite. You will get millions of false positives, causing anxiety and unnecessary interventions. This has been studied extensively and we have the stats.
I too wish I could just jump into a machine every month and it declares me free of cancer. Instead it will find new irregularities every time with no easy way to confirm it's benign. This idea does not work.
Records of environmental data are a huge pain in the ass for those invested in fossil energy and adjacent industries.
The truth is hurting business and they seem to be going on a rampage actively killing it at the roots. Stop collecting and recording data, destroy and hide the existing data and close the institutions.
> Just 60 per cent of long-distance German trains arrive on time, down from 84 per cent two decades ago.
If that's from the official statistics, it's even worse. The definition of 'on time' has expanded (6 minutes late is perfectly punctually and on time, right?) and they stopped counting trains that are too late by simply canceling them. If the train is not running, it cant be late. Brilliant.
no no, you see, that's exactly how our super secret chemistry solid state battery would measure! look at it, the curves aren't even similar, very different kink due to secret anode material that's definitely not graphite
