swelter_spark@reddthat.comto Technology@lemmy.world•mRNA vaccines for HIV trigger strong immune response in peopleEnglish1·5 days agoPeople wonder about the long range effects of things because we can’t know them until a long time has passed. Like when the internet first became available in homes, we all had no idea that it would change society and even human psychology in the ways that it has.

But if he came out one day and told me I owed him money for looking at his bears, I’d think he was crazy.
They aren’t my bears, and the decision to craft them in an area open to public view was his own.
That’s what other people’s websites are like, to me.
You obviously see things differently. I’m sure the people whose websites you visit appreciate that. I mean that sincerely.
swelter_spark@reddthat.comto Technology@lemmy.world•mRNA vaccines for HIV trigger strong immune response in peopleEnglish1·7 days agoNo, it isn’t. It was a casual statement of curiosity about the future.
There are always things we don’t know when newish discoveries go into common use that we learn over the first few decades of really widespread use.
