For me it solved insomnia. I've tried various forms, the important part is the magnesium. It is taken up by bones so magnesium status in blood isn't the best metric to use here. Really you should pay attention to how you feel. Magnesium is depleted by stress as well. It's the only drug along w/ vit D that I take, and I don't take caffeine.

"Being said"... Let me guess, Sputnik News?

> According to a slideshow uploaded online, scientists at Anvisa, Brazil's regulator, said they *tested* samples of the booster shot and found it was "replication competent" -- meaning that once inside the body, the adenovirus can continue to multiply.

That is not mutually exclusive to investigators finding problems with Sputnik V.

This is not mutually exclusive with the findings of the Brazilian investigators. More than likely this will spur other investigations which should find the same thing if the Brazilian investigators were correct.

You realize your risk of death of air pollution in polish cities is 160/10,000 people? In the US the risk is 5 in 100,000 people.

sugar water will be a problem, I did not like this about the USA.

medical issue - with FAANG you're fine

bad side of the law: in the communities we live in faang, again, not a problem, you're on the right side of the law. Unless you're black, then that is quite a problem unfortunately.

I have a random question for those who survived the smoke in 2020 california: California homes have horrible insulation.. did having an air filter indoors make a difference?

and doesn't filter CO2 in any way measurable. You would need your entire place filled with the right plants to make a difference. I tried, and failed at this when I realized I'd have to get way more plants.

> I have discovered that when I make this case, even to highly intelligent and health-conscious men and women, a psychological truth quickly becomes as visible as a pair of clenched fists: They do not want to believe any of it.

LOL this happens whenever I talk about this issue with people here in Poland. Part of it is their family is here, it's hard to immigrate, deep down they know it is a problem. It was upsetting to tell my Polish wife that we need to move out of Poland and to scary USA but... she agreed with me and we're doing it. For us, the risk of death is far higher here with all the smoke. Even the California wildfires are relatively harmless in comparison, we get that every year in Poland and no one cares, at least in Calfornia everyone recognizes that it's a problem and people stay at home.

But here, wood burning(or even coal burning), is a part of the culture, giving warm fuzzy memories at granny's house burning horrid things in the furnace for others to enjoy.

Even here in Poland. People burn anything to stay warm, oil even. The unhealthy pollution starts in November then ends in March. The entire time everyone, including children, are outside, pretending like it's not a problem. People running in the streets. And when you bring it up to people they get angry. Schools don't close, everyone continues like it's normal.

I'm moving back to the west coast USA soon. I could live in a shack and my family would be better off. People complain about the wildfires, but in Poland they get it every year, and for longer. Try forbidding your kids to go out(too young to wear a mask) the entire winter... Even if you somehow make the perfect environment at home, those kids will eventually have to physically go to school and brave pollution. Before the pandemic I was the only crazy one with a mask during high pollution days. If kids wore a mask because of pollution then I was told they would be ostracized.

So, other than that elephant in the room, it's a perfect country.

In the USA yes, especially the west coast. In Poland I was about to get a condo constructed but not doing that anymore, but the process was quite interesting. The insulation blew most everything in the USA out of the water. Mostly because they have no choice given the really cold winters. During the winter pollution gets really bad and if you shut the windows, pollution goes down indoors, but so does CO2. Ideally you have a hepa filter + outdoor A/C that brings in warm filtered air during the winter.

I am not impressed with european masters alumni and I have worked in europe and the usa, it definitely seemed like it was the bachelors of europe, everyone had it.. I believe it is more difficult to get into a masters program in the usa.
