So? Then the market will adjust. Seems a net win for customer and seller.


From what we know now, nearly every habitual behavior is likely to affect your biome. Excersize still has a larger effect than most drugs, but we can't seem to perscribe it.


Is this pure correlation? are people drinking every day also less likely to have other more healthy habits?


Aledgedly, with no details.


Nagware... great idea. Now i will just need a google blocker.

Even the best tech needs foundations, buildings and services to function. Get off your high horse. Money is where friction is, not nessarrily, or even usually, advancement in tech. Not to mention non tech companies are dying at a much slower rate than tech ones if you plotted them all.


I have on good authority that everyone who owns or uses a toaster, will in fact die.


I struggle to name a single source that is not Signifigantly biased. But worse than ever, fewer orgs seem to speak with a single editorial voice. One NYT article will be well sourced and informative, and the next will be raving identity-politics hate-fuel without a single citation or fact. Even distinguishing by outfit is outdated. Perhaps I just need to follow more writers, but I worry of creating my own bubble. Its a tall order.


If you don't create your own bubble, it means you're in one someone else created for you.


But News is very much commercial speech as well, if not moreso than political.


A news organization maybe a commercial venture, but news is not commercial speech.

Advertising, product labels, or advertisement signs are examples of commercial speech.


But. You're in the weeds. They saying "we're news" and they're not. It's 90% editorial.

As for the actual content and their right to say it? It's their right. It's protected. But selling snake oil as a cure for cancer? That's the issue.


Who is “they”? You mean the New York Times, right?

But in all seriousness, freedom of the press doesn’t imply it has to be purely factual or completely objective. The press is free to analyze, opine, ridicule, and rile their audience however they decide to. And they can even call it “fair and balanced” or tell me it’s “fit to print” if they want to, because these are subjective terms describing their opinion in a field expressly exempt from regulation.

In other words, about as far from selling a fake cure to cancer as you can get.


Wow. So worried about their own self image they attack the NTSB as if they were worried about theirs? What a PR travesty. Then they go on to say their self-proclaimed safest cars in the universe should be above suspicion or investigation. If I ever wanted a Tesla, that ship has now sailed. I cannot support this level of thoughtlessness. This is not the way to make the world a better place. Step up and take responsibility, or at least stop issuing half-truths to the media as facts.

Even with all the custumer antagonizing anti-repair bs, I did not expect this from them.
