I'd Wager That You Live In A State Where Most People Know Trump Is Doing A Bad Job Confronting The Pandemic
*Badge of Honor by Nancy Ohanian* You almost definitely live in a state where most people are dissatisfied with Trump's handling of the pandemic. How can I be so certain? The odds are with me-- overwhelmingly. Majorities of people in only 9 small-population states-- Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Nebraska (which has one of the worst outbreaks in the country due to Trumpist policies), North Dakota, Oklahoma, Tennessee, West Virginia and Wyoming-- think the Trumpist regime is doing a good job.

Iran's Ballistic Missiles Will Pose A Problem For The U.S. Navy
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Middle East* Could Iran sink an aircraft carrier? *Here's What You Need To Remember:* Recent events, particularly the downing of a U.S. Navy MQ-4 Triton by Iranian military forces, again raise the possibility of war between the United States and Iran. The on again, off again standoff between Washington and Tehran, now in its fourth decade is periodically instigated by both sides, and each time Iran grows stronger. If Iran decides to stage an attack against a larger target, such as an American destroyer or even aircraft carrier, how might it use its mis... more »
Who Needs OLEDs and QLEDs? Here Are 5 Other TVs You Can Buy
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Technology, Americas* When you don't want to spend the extra cash or don't need that crazy picture quality.

You just have to broaden your view a bit and not just take cues from the weekly Best Buy and Target ads.

*Sanjay Mishra* *Health, * Will it be successful? Early morning on May 18, Moderna, a biotechnology company, revealed the preliminary findings for the much anticipated phase I trial of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. The information sent Moderna’s stock soaring by more than 20% and helped fuel a rally on Wall Street. Although there was an enthusiastic response to the news, the purpose of all phase I trials is primarily to demonstrate safety and tolerability. While the early results are tantalizingly positive, what Moderna has not revealed is raising some doubts. I am a data scientist... more »

Russia’s Su-57 Stealth Fighter Is Flying to a Battlefield Near You—Without a Pilot
*Caleb Larson* *Technology, Europe* Though a pilot would sit in the jet’s cockpit, he would allegedly just be used to monitor the airframe’s systems.

It carries a respectable weapon load, is decently maneuverable, and also has some stealth characteristics. It also has several glaring problems. As I previously wrote, one of the crucial issues with the Su-57 platform is the jet’s engines. Though the Su-57 is a dual-engine airframe, its engines are not new. They’re the same engines... more »

For all you other folks out there, Best Buy is offering a two-year financing option if you can swing $2,500 a month. The likely outcome is that most of you will politely pass on this “deal”—because, after a few moments of weighing the pros and cons, there really is no reason to spend that much cash on a TV.

Why Russia Decided On Having Only 1 Aircraft Carrier
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * Moscow once planned to have a fleet. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *As a land power, the Soviet Union could never allocate enough of the country’s resources to build a real fleet of aircraft carriers. There was always some other perfectly reasonable—and eminently practical—way to spend the country’s rubles, whether it was on the Army, or the Air Force, and later on nuclear weapons. Even today, the Russian Navy’s nonstrategic forces face stiff competition from land and air forces, and the future of Russian naval aviation is again cloudy at best. ... more »
