In the same sense that my computer is "alive", presumably?

Yes, but they didn't have chiefs. Undemocratic leaders are the ones who are destroying any good socialism.

Too deep a thought for my frivolous topic. But I 102% agree.

No leaders becomes total warfare.

Why not a compact, reliable, and easy to use radio protocol? Is that too much to ask?
Even BLE is just laden with UUIDs and various services and "characteristics" you have to "publish" just to read and write some data. I understand having to advertise, but they make it ridiculous.
And the power consumption and speed leave something to be desired even where BLE is concerned.
If that weren't enough, every single API i've been forced to work with to support bluetooth on every platform I've tried has been either murderous to use, and half documented, or rickety as heck, or both.
Why is this so difficult? And why in the heck Microsoft, did you make it so you have to thunk through to the Windows RT layer or whatever to get access to bluetooth? It's just nonsense. All of it.

None of this had to be this way. Where did we go wrong?

My thoughts while working on C# ExpressionTree API code right now. I've had to look at CIL and the .NET framework reference source to figure out what the purpose of some of this stuff is. I'm still not sure what Expression.RuntimeVariables does. All the documentation states is "This type is necessary to implement 'eval' in dynamic languages." And that lovely tidbit is on the docs related to the returned type, not even on the function, which says absolutely nothing  /end_co-rant

... better to have a reasonable not- vaccinated person next to me than a vaccinated person who thinks he can do everything because of the vaccination in the opinion that he is protected
(btw, I am vaccinated)

Yeah, vaccination just means that if you are exposed your immune system deals with it quicker, and that reduces the chances / durationthat you are infectious.
Doesn't mean you don't need to wear a mask, don't need to wash your hands, etc.
But it's a good start!

For me, what counts above all is: That people who have been vaccinated can pass the virus on. That is why I feel more comfortable to be next to someone who is not vaccinated but more cautious than to someone vaccinated who romps in the crowd.
Express me in English is definitively not my thing

As if the people that negates the vaccine were more cautious... 
EDIT / ADDITION:
I saw your comment below about people that can't be vaccinated due to medical reasons... they can really be counted as cautious as you say above.
The rest of the "I don't want to be vaccinated, just because"... they usually are even less cautious as the vaccinated, because it is a personal decission and a "believe".

Yes, I think there is no real reason not to vaccinate other than medical indications.

Indeed. My dad's double-vaxxed, so is my mom, and so is all the staff at the nursing home she's at, so when my dad visits her, nothing's different between today and back at the time when no-one was vaccinated.

The strange thing is now that you can find more stuff from the 'official press' reporting on conspiracies than there are publications by the conspirators.
At least it feels like this

Oh yes it does exist. For my wife the vaccination is a high health risk, confirmed by doctors. But I feel very comfortable with her because she strictly adheres to the usual security measures (distance, mask, desinfection). Much better than 99% of those vaccinated!
