They hadn't lived through the previous flu pandemic of 1889-1890 (https://t.co/OiDZYtdbWx) that killed about 1 million people. And thus had no carryover immunity.
The US immigration act of 1907 signed by Teddy Roosevelt: ableist as hell. https://t.co/ficeXOImo5
Today's covid denialists are tomorrow's openly eugenicist "these disabled people are a drain on society"

Literally. 13 years after the Spanish flu, the very first people the nazis targeted were disabled people.
What caused a lot of those disabilities, you think?

What it was, was contagious as hell. Hundreds of thousands of cases sprouted up everywhere, overnight. Entire cities shut down with everyone sick.
Not too infectious, not too deadly.
Bear in mind: 42.4°C is where fevers cause lasting neurological damage.
It banned anarchists, prostitutes, beggars, and people with epilepsy.
And then a few years later, he passed the above legislation with even more ableism.
The effect of half the population of a city getting a 42°C fever at once.
A generation later, the aftermath of the 1889 pandemic was still being felt.
It can result in ableist, eugenicist legislation decades later.
Survivors can be fucked over, decades later.
People who'd survived, but with chronic illness, faced a second epidemic a decade later.
Half a century later: https://t.co/0VC9MMKE3E in which the US gov infected Guatamalan prisoners and asylum patients with syphilis and tested quinine derivatives

So I've mentioned the sharpie test and the tueller drill.
Another reason you are dead within 1.5 seconds of encountering your first fast zombie, is adrenaline.
Most people who get attacked with a knife and survive to talk about it, say they never even knew a knife was there.
Or that they'd been stabbed, until after the fact.
In many cases, they think they'd just been punched, and are completely surprised
One reason the adage is "the winner is the one who dies in the ambulance, not the gutter," is because it's entirely possible to receive a fatal wound, not realize it, and then inflict a fatal wound on the other guy without *him* realizing it.
A dozen times within 30 seconds.
The marker drill teaches how you *will* get cut, fatally, without realizing it.
In full adrenaline freakout, this is even more pronounced.

The Tueller Drill is interesting.https://t.co/D6p3zRRV52

So you want to generate interesting melodies.
1. Make a file called 1235.txt containing, one per line, all 24 unique permutations of the elements 1 2 3 5.
2. Cp 1235.txt to D.txt
3. Use sed to convert the numbers in D.txt to notes. Now you have 24 permutations of the major tetrachord in D.
4. Play them each. If it sounds like it increases tension, mark the beginning of that cell in 1235.txt with a +. If it sounds like it decreases tension, mark with a -.
Now those 24 melodic cells are divided into two groups: tension increasers and resolvers.
5. Rinse and repeat for all 12 keys.
You now have 13 plaintext files, filled with stuff like + 1 2 5 3 and - D E F# A
6. Figuratively roll dice to decide, given a +/- cell, what the next cell should be.
33% chance a + follows a +, etc.
Now you're outputting a stream of dynamic tensions: ++-+++-+-+---+ etc

It is literally just a mesh of resistors and some light bulbs. No logic gates, no programming, nothing at all resembling AI.
