It doesn't seem like the author of the article did any basic statistics to prove this point? What is the R2 and P value of these scatter plots? Are these even linear relationships?

Lots of people carry it asymptomatically, which is how it spreads. Its not a moral failing on your end. If you were a carrier already, it may be a sign that your immune system had a downturn for a while. Or you may have contracted one from someone else which was slightly different and your immune system has to update it's adaptive response to the new variant
Everyone is always talking about spider silk as ropes. What about DNA huh? Mass strawberry extraction for a DNA space elevator when?
Taking the time to learn gimp is worthwhile. Its really powerful once you know how to use it IMO
Is this loss?
Absolutely not true. Fungi are weird but not this weird. Citation please
Tbh I'm here for it. The reboot trilogy is legitimately fantastic and beautifully realised films
Three robust genetics papers using different sequences and genes, each time place it as a sister group to Archosauria:
248 nuclear genes (187,026 nucleotide sites): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3473239/
1145 ultraconserved elements (UCEs) and their variable flanking DNA: https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rsbl.2012.0331
1,113 single-copy coding genes, robustly indicated that turtles are likely to be a sister group of crocodilians and birds: https://www.nature.com/articles/ng.2615
This level of genetic evidence is an overwhelmingly strong signal, regarding relationships and recent common ancestry to extant species. I would say it is undeniably strong. You cannot possibly get evolutionary convergence over this many genetic loci.
Maybe we're not talking about the same thing? I was thinking about the diapsid debate, where genetic evidence is overwhelmingly strong in favour for diapsid evolution Mitochondrial DNA evidence: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC24355/ Micro RNA evidence: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21775315/
Tbh a core multi gene ML tree to all other reptiles would prove it beyond a shadow of a doubt, maybe someone's done that already but I haven't been able to find it.
Origin of life matters to a lot of people I think. RNA vs other self-replicating molecules? Moon-based tidal PCR? Cell formation etc.
