Koronaviry z příbuzenstva MERS jsou jedinou mutaci od pandemie

Koronaviry ze skupiny merbekovirů, tedy kromě zabijáckého MERS-CoV, obvykle nepovažujeme za bezprostřední riziko. Neohrožení virologové zjistili, že u starosvětských merbekovirů skupiny HKU5, schází k pandemii mezi lidmi možná jen krůček. Je to hrozba, které stojí za pečlivý monitoring netopýrů. Co kdyby se z toho vyloupl dáreček s úmrtností jako MERS? http://www.osel.cz/14120-koronaviry-z-pribuzenstva-mers-jsou-jedinou-mutaci-od-pandemie.html

Dámón o proměnách společnosti a kultury

„Nikde se totiž charakter hudby nemění beze změn nejdůležitějších politických zákonů obce.“ Dámonova zvláštní úvaha teď bude spíše záminkou k dalším. Co teprve změna kulturních drog a změny v definici pohlaví! Půjde o pokusný „krok stranou“, abychom získali nadhled nad lecčím, co nás občas pálí příliš, takže snadno sdílíme neuvážené „názory“. Dá se od filosofie čekat pomoc? http://www.osel.cz/14119-damon-o-promenach-spolecnosti-a-kultury.html

Atomic Commits Explained: Stop Writing Useless Git Messages

The debate over state-level AI bans misses the point

Both sides are missing the point entirely as Congress debates the proposed 10-year ban on state AI laws contained in the “Big, Beautiful Bill.”

This free website is like GasBuddy for parking

Parking in a city can be a problem. It’s not just about finding parking—it’s about finding the right parking. Sometimes, there’s a $10 parking spot only a block away from a garage that charges $50!

So how do you know the best place to park—especially if you’re new to an area, as I was a few years ago, or if you’re traveling and aren’t familiar with a city?

For me, the answer is a smart and completely free user-submitted database of parking spots and rates. It’ll

How a planetarium show discovered a spiral at the edge of our solar system

If you’ve ever flown through outer space, at least while watching a documentary or a science fiction film, you’ve seen how artists turn astronomical findings into stunning visuals.

Trump’s ‘gold card’ visa scheme is pure gilded nonsense

President Donald Trump announced, back on February 25, that his administration would soon debut a “gold card,” an immigration program that would allow wealthy foreigners, for the low, low price of $5 million, to become lawful permanent residents of the United States. At the time, Trump touted the program as a “great” and “fantastic” revenue generation strategy that would help reduce the national deficit, which approached $2 trillion during the most recent fiscal year.
