in the Netherlands, i think we have now 270 cases or so. All are men who have sex with other men. Plus one child.... o-tone radio

one might wonder how the child got infected ....


Breastfeeding seems very likely, as does sleeping in the same bed as someone who was infected.


what about the childs body?


An embryo is not a human


> An embryo is not a human

So a human female and a human male copulate and they conceive something not-human? What species is it if it is not Homo sapiens? If it is not Homo sapiens, why does it apparently have human DNA (distinct from either the female and male that were involved)?

Why is it that when two humans copulate, they produce something not-human, but when every other mammal pairs copulate they produce something of the same species?

In your opinion when does it go from being not-human to being human? Is is gradual, on a spectrum? Or is it binary: at a certain point in development there is some characteristic that becomes present


Judaism, as an example, does not consider the embryo to be human, but instead to be 'potential human', and doesn't consider it human or ensouled until it is birthed. A large number of people who believe abortion is murder do so because they are Christian, a religion that spawned from Judaism, yet they don't even understand their Old Testament as well as the Jews do.


En embryo might eventually become a human but is not one yet! You need a decently developer brain at least… being a small agglomeration of cells with human dna doesn’t make you a human! A tumor is an agglomeration of cells with human dna but is not treated as a person! On general is a gradual process… but like with every fuzzy system it is easy in some case to say if something belongs ta a category or not but when you reach the overlap of categories to becomes harder. Just set the threshold when it is still clear


sounds a lot like Russia


Or the US with Federal and State law


Or pretty much everywhere, with a whole gradient of levels of autonomy.


I agree. We observe this in the Netherlands for quite a while already. The solution? Mix it with CBD flower. Unfortunatenly most coffee shops don't agree and still sell only high THC flowers with 0% cbd...


better for the people. for wildlife and nature its a different story though...


Not necessarily disagreeing, but do you have some metrics to show the scale and speed of the problem?


You're shifting the burden to the parent asking for metrics for something that is common knowledge amongst middle schoolers.


There are many metrics. I was mainly interested to know which ones would be selected. The whole thread is about using data instead of widely held beliefs...


i agree. its amazing. yhe hyperspec is unreadable anyway... never really helped me at all


I've spent many hours doing deep dives into the Hyperspec. I have no serious problem with it.


Never ever ever ever ever ever sign a deal that you do NOT FULLY (!!) UNDERSTAND.

Including second and third degree implications as far as this is possible.


kendrick lamar is a good example regarding your first example. he has this song, good kid maad city, where nigga is used in about every single sentence. the whole hook is full with it.

at a concert, he invited a white girl to rap the song on stage. of course she went full with it. he stopped the track after she rapped nigga a few times during the track l and began to.blame her on stage for it. of course the whole crowd went with it.

i mean. what a god damn motherfucker. seriously. i dont want to know what the girl was going through mentally. it must have been horror.

the obsession with the n word is crazy anyway. of course i dont use it in mh regular life..but when i quote a rap song, i quote it literally ofc.


is there ANY evidence for that. because i work since two decades in the industry, saw both worlds , and am much much happier now than ever before?


isnt it open source?
