I'm 35 and have never gotten into an accident because I always expect other cars to act in unexpected ways as it (hopefully) allows you to avoid collisions that wouldn't be your fault. That goes all out the window in storms like this. It doesn't matter how careful you are, or how much you pay attention, there is no planning for how fast things can turn sideways and all the ways it can happen.

North Korea will gladly imprison westerners for benign stuff and even killed one of them. Now, Qatar isn't North Korea, but if North Korea tortures and kills and American for stealing a poster, sending this guy to prison for a very long time doesn't seem far fetched. If all eyes weren't on them right now, I bet he'd be in a living hell.

Like they'd survive in prison for long enough to do that

Interesting, how would it work with thr placebo effect? Or is it something you use in separate trials for the same drug that way only some trials have a placebo group?

Would you be willing to explain what a synthetic control arm is and why are they better? I've never heard the term before.

It wouldn't be the first time they've done it. Their messaging about not trusting elections probably caused a lot of Republicans to not vote (just speculation).
I also read a report that looked at expected political affiliation and death rates of covid by population and there was a bug enough gap in the right states that it could have given trump the win.

The election is always rigged, when they win, it was rigged because it should have been a blow out. Both Trump and Bolsonaro made comments like that the last time they each won.

Has there been any major advancements in this area? Everything I've seen has been dehumidifiers under a different name or were new tech with such a poor output that it's not worth it.

Eh, the guy's a fraud and asshole, but he'd probably pretty smart. You don't build a company as large as he did, even with fraud without being pretty smart. And he probably would have gotten away with it for a lot longer if he wasn't so damn greedy.
