And yet, active traders still can't beat indexes.

This reads like Russian propaganda. NATO's EU forces have not used any ammo in the Iran war as they are not a belligerant. Russia's nuclear deterrent has to prove to be still in working condition. There is no guarantee Le Pen would win in 2027 and the chain of command would allow that to happen

Tofu, 100% peanut butter with no added oil or additive, skyr yogurt (10g of proteins for 100g for around 50kcal !), there are a lot of options What's hard is not protein intake but to moderate carbs intake in my opinion

New comment by zilian in "Denmark to raise retirement age to 70"

zilian — Mon, 26 May 2025 13:22:25 +0000

This is such a sad comment. Indeed, the demographic situation was known and predictable in the 80's, and for instance in France we did nothing to plan around it.

So now the young generation is expected to pay longer and longer for retirees, who have a higher median revenue and a higher standard of life than the active workforce (per all studies). There is absolutely no way I'm working until 70 to finance errors from the past without a contribution from our current retirees' wealth. There is anyway no foreseeable future with work for everyone until 70 with our current technological progress unless you want to slave everyone in bullshit jobs. All of this is madness.

Rails 8 can make you a one-person framework and a successful SaaS solo-owner. Don't really care about the declining market share imo, I love and embrace it despite its shortcomings.

New comment by zilian in "A noninflammatory mRNA vaccine for treatment of autoimmune encephalomyelitis"

You are completely right, in many autoimmune disorders if the damage is stopped in time it could be cured.

So excited by this ! Im 30 and finally, after reading tons of papers about AS and/or inflammatory pathways it is the first time I can imagine a cure for my anlylosing spondylitis. Too bad it will take years of approval once developed. I volunteer for trials and not in the placebo group please !

This does not make sense to me. Your own antibodies triggering an autoimmune response ?

Our bodies ard entirely capable of doing that without external mRNA. Im also interested in potential side effects when we already have an autoimmune disorder.

Demographics make conservative votes overwhelming. What do you propose ? We young people are excluded from decision-making for the grim future we'll have to live in. It is imo as unfair as what those young brits propose.

zilian — Sat, 31 Oct 2020 08:02:24 +0000

You brain somehow get used to the pain when it meticulously destroy your body for no reason, no danger, no signal everyday. I have ankylosing spondylitis.

Lasg time I heavily cut my finger while cooking, didnt feel a thing. Didnt feel anything on my first tattoo - the tattoo artist was quite surprised.

Now I feel a bit better with some anti IL17 medicine.

And yet some day the pain comes back with new, untold and unreasonable levels of pain and you can't explain that to most people. The scale has changed and most of you will never feel that - or just once in a while. But not enough, not everyday with this consistency that shreds through your mental ability to take it and to shatter your life.

I would trade a night of torture against my health back.

And then the doctor with all his knowledge says that no - no other painkillers for AS ! Just nsaids !

Please donate for autoimmune disorders, they are awful

How can you still say that when the crisis show us that critical jobs are underpaid, sometimes practically slave labor. Your arguments get countered every single time in this thread, so I'm not surprised he or she didn't reply to you anymore
