How would that work as current understanding from quantum theory is that we cannot predict which atom decays next? Is there a quantum algorithm that can do that?

I don't have the answers here, I a afraid, but not having at least the broader discussion might also not help (not sure what is already happening there, though).

How to build a Turing machine to tell which one of ten atoms of a radioactive element decays next?

If there is a lot of change to how the night sky looks like could perhaps be worth a discussion on if the process is still the right one (and if it is global enough).

Biological weapons? Yes, there is research on defense, but no big arsenals of weapons etc.

My impression from the origin of the bioweapons convention is that collectively people decided that these things are too dangerous in various ways for any advantage that might be derived from them.

Would you say it might at least be fair to discuss how things that affect everyone are decided upon or how externalities are compensated for? Or should it be free for all?

It started in 2007. I don't see the peak oil connection there - what is it?

GFC = Great Financial Crisis. I'd look at that first rather than some peak oil for Europe's underperformance.

Isn't TRUMPF a German company?

If have a hard time linking a slowdown from 2007 on to oil instead of the GFC.

How do you get enough data? If, for example, you need a lot of people in the sample, that might not be so easy. In the abstract, should it not come done to what is the best experimental design for each case?

The laser and optics for the EUV light source are from the US?

What's an example of a report rejected because of the use of VAERS data itself?

> In directly applied math, such as engineering, it is in fact much more common to work with unproven but well tested conjectures.

What specific areas were you thinking off? I don't recall, e.g., in numerics that things were often just unproven/conjectures, but might be subject matter specific.

Then you have to make sure that the AIs understand the theorems (sort of build a "world" for that - otherwise how'd there be confidence in the use of said theorems?

If cryptography didn't exist but the maths did, how'd you use it?

What don't you like about current reporting such as VAERS? Where do you see the barriers there specifically? Do you have examples of doctors getting their licenses revoked for reporting something?

How would you suggest to establish causality?

Don't know. But would standard smaller trials have captured it?

We are kind of back to my initial question that is conceptually unrelated to the vaccine trial: do you need trials to run into millions or billions of participants or into decades if you want to capture certain (rare) things?.

Who refused to acknowledge there could be adverse effects? I certainly was given information prior to vaccination that outlined possible adverse side effects.

Operation Warpspeed addressed that by running a very large stage 3 trial. One reason that isn't normally done is the high cost of such a large trial.
