    No offense but in my school, we engineering students usually think of hippies smoking weed and preaching alien conspiracy theories when we speak of sociology majors.

    At this point we should all be "AMD desperate" with the Sh*t NVidia is pulling with £1000+ 80ti cards.
    If things don't change you can fully expect to see future generations have 80ti cards at the £1000+ price point for no other reason than "because they can".

    The problem is, while right wing extremism is an old hat we have had to deal with for ever, it is very ..obvious... for the most part. Left wing extremism however is much more worrisome since 'the left' are regularly in control of ...everything. So when certain groups and people become left wing extremists, not only are they hard to see anyway due to the nature of left wing extremism, they are also in positions to take action that directly affects everyone else, unlike right wing extremists.

    "Well we have the ability to make a better product, but we don't because people are still overpaying for the current one" - what I got from his statement.

    Let's not forget about the fact that Huang dismissed Radeon VII for not having "anything special" but it has more memory bandwidth and raw compute performance and the actual release, Navi, is rumored to be able to trace a ray here or there. Huang knows what AMD has up their sleeves as much as we do so these lofty claims are easy to ignore.
     
    Most efficient GPU in the world? Hit us then, I want a little GTX 1650 that performs around 1060 levels and doesn't require a 6 pin. Maybe single slot and low profile, as well, if you please.

    If Huang isn't going to do it, he shouldn't bring it up. Unless he's trying to be an American politician...

    This is the big one for me.  Some children/people can't be vaccinated (due to allergies or other known medical issues).  Herd immunity helps those children/people by drastically reducing the odds of them coming into contact with certain pathogens.  So anti-vaxxers aren't just endangering their own lives and that of their children, they're also endangering the lives of others.

    There isn't one, car seat-belts were a new technology at one point. Those that adapted to the lifesaving technological change survived car crashes, natural selection claimed the rest.

    I understand your concerns, and the bad experience you had.
     
    But, you have to consider that getting the actual Flu has a higher chance of giving someone Guillain-Barre syndrome than the vaccine itself does. Furthermore, we're talking chances of 1 in 100,000 that your risk will go up (That is to say, not a 1 in 100,000 chance of getting Guillain-Barre syndrome, but rather, you have a 1 in 100,000 chance of being at higher risk).
     
    You suffered an incredibly massively rare complication. That's really unfortunate, and hopefully one day we can entirely eliminate conditions such as Guillain-Barre syndrome. But the chances are still much higher that a person will suffer life long complications or even death from the diseases we vaccinate against.
     
    And those kinds of complications are indeed disclosed on every vaccine insert. Ideally your doctor should go through the insert with you though.
     
    The problem is that while you ended up having a severe complication, that information isn't terribly useful to others. Yes, they should know it's possible, but it's so incredibly unlikely to happen, that anyone who decided against vaccinations because someone else got Guillain-Barre syndrome? That's a decision I wouldn't support, because the data doesn't support their concerns.
