My understanding of the Shahed's is that they are relatively simple. They can be programmed with a certain destination and then have some basic image recognition that allows them to "choose" exactly their target based…
On a tech site, pessimism like this make me sad. I'm a nerd. I have been dreaming of a future where humanity finally takes its place among the stars since I was young enough to have dreams. I am looking forward to…
Whitespace forcing proper indentation practices has always been one of my favorite aspects of python. I TA'd a data structures in C++ class and the lack of proper indentation making code unreadable was my biggest pet…
Interestingly, I read or heard something that said that a fatal flaw in hypersonic in regards to naval combat was that hypersonic speeds create plasma and that the plasma made optical sensors and remote control useless.…
But that was a great quarter. You should have seen the bonuses.
I can't read the article. Could someone please point to the research that they are referring to?
Madison is exceptional for a midwestern city. It has a large and excellent state university. Epic is based there and most of FAANG has outposts there to draw the CS talent. Additionally, it is the state capitol which…
This is very clearly an attempt to get government employees to quit. They are not shy about stating that. It is hard to fire civil servants, and this is an attempt to get around civil service protections. Whether you…
As a former smoker, who used patches and gum and such to quit, this doesn't seem surprising. The nicotine patch is far less satisfying than cigarettes. Cigarettes come on strong, immediately, and that feeling is…
There isn’t any symbolysm. The sea is the sea. The old man is an old man. The boy is a boy and the fish is a fish. The shark are all sharks no better and no worse. All the symbolism that people say is s*t. - Ernest…
One of Peter Lee's arguments in his AI in medicine book[1] is that the GenAIs (GPT4) actually excel at empathy. He gives a pretty compelling example where the GPT is able to empathize very well with a young girl who is…
And my cholesterol goes back up when I stop taking statins. I don’t get this very common argument.
Is that you CommanderTaco?
Interesting. I created Biological Age profiles using multi-omics and we found that GDF15 was also one of the strongest proteomic aging factors. - https://doi.org/10.1093/gerona/glz220
And irony of ironies, Bayer, a German company, purchased Monsanto and is currently stuck with the bill from all the people harmed by glyphosate. Reality is stranger than fiction.
Do you think it might simply be that the subset of Europeans that interact with international clients tend to be well-educated and highly effective. As a scientist, I interact with a number of Europeans. That happened…
No good deed goes unpunished.

Apparently there is now.
A fellow fan of Peter Attia I see. His latest podcast had a protein expert on that went into great depth about the virtues and drawbacks of different protein sources. Highly recommend to people who are interested in the…
I'd go with weight loss peptides or nucleotides (so injectables), but yeah, this is coming hard.
Okay, I'm confused. If I'm reading the paper right, it wasn't an 11 percent reduction caused by eliminating transfats. The total reduction was 11 percent, of which 11 percent was attributable to trans fat with the rest…
I do longevity/healthy aging research and sleep, nutrition, and exercise are by far the most important factors in healthy aging. Everything else can be considered a rounding error to those three. It's a little…
But this way is carbon neutral. Every CO2 molecule you pump out, started out as a CO2 molecule you took from the air. There is no reason to dislike fossil fuels, if they no longer come from fossils. It's the releasing…
I think you mean bias, not conspiracy.
