Blood sugar affects mood. A person's decision-making can be affected by mood. Judges make decisions. Seems pretty common sense to me. It may not change guilty/not-guilty verdicts but it's easy to believe that perhaps it would

Is it implied anywhere? That's a feature I'd love and also why I haven't bothered delving into LLMs very much; I didn't know there were any that could locally index your library and train on that data. I'd love to a

They do have some computer-based mags in their huge database [0]. It's nice to see them still doing their thing, it's an incredible project and goes back decades. I used to scan for them almost fifteen years ago; just the website

If we're allowed to use computing analogies here, would it be fair to say the old model is more like how we view a standard CPU and the new model is more like a FPGA? Where the old model viewed genes in a more classic reductionist appr

Ah, 2012, not surprised. Ad-served malware seemed more common in those days. Even in the early days of reddit, it had an episode where one of their third-party ads infected users. I don't recall it being very malicious but it definitel

That's such a naive take and insulting to those who haven't encountered any believable gods. You're implying those without religious beliefs are holding society together when it's proven that in nature that even birds ha

That is just genius. NASA is wasting all this money on engineers when they could just ask HN.

Theism tends to be the default in general society so by nature, it is a more congealed group vs the rest. And when we use taxonomy to classify groups, casually in this case and by will of the group, we naturally define a commonality. Having

And instead there's people coming together under other banners. And just because people don't come together isn't necessarily a bad thing. Unity as a society creates tyranny for those who don't follow. Dis-unity of socie

"the decree". There is no single decree in atheism, that was my point. By definition it's many nebulous people with nebulous beliefs in many different places.

I think you missed my point. Many religious people would say that their religion provides agency for them and you can't deny it, in itself, isn't an agent of forces, for better or worse.

It sounds like the lack of toxicity of your religious ones there is on par with the lack of toxicity of non-religious there. Here in the US, religious toxicity seems to have increased non-religious toxicity. I suspect that's the case.

That's a nice hypothesis but it breaks down when you historically look at just how many people were killed in the name of religiuos jihads, crusades, witch trials (including all the individual people killed for rather benign reasons bu

That take assumes there's some sort of religious vacuum, that if they don't worship a god then those desires will go into worshiping other things. It's naive in assuming their lack of desire to worship someone or something is

None of those were done under the decree of atheism. There was no atheist doctrine giving them authority so you can't blame atheism.

Religious apologists have used this excuse for ages to try to invalidate those who criticize it but it's a really naive take to say that religion has no manipulative influence on people whatsoever. And in a different conversation, the

Yes. Humans, just like information, are prone to bitrot. Every day your data is rotting, there's no stopping the entropy train, so most anyone who cares about it takes preventative measures by increasing redundancy. Man does this via p

Good luck getting off this earth without industry. Earth won't last forever. It's a degenerate mindset that thinks we should just rot here on Earth without advancing.

Or you could get an r36s for less price which has a bit more power to handle some PSP, Dreamcast and N64 games. I honestly can't review it yet because it's still in delivery but /r/SBCGaming sold me on it.

I'd argue that if we want to support individual growth and creativity, freedom-to should have higher priority than freedom-from, which consciously or not has seems to be the traditional default in the US perhaps due to its culture of s

At the same time with taxonomy, we're basically lossy encoding the information and so data is lost or glossed over. IE, white walls aren't exactly white, there's other color information there but it's easier for our brai

Audio buzz emulation has been done already with a Gameboy emulator and from what I could recall when trying it, it was pretty dead-on. I wished I could remember which one it was but indeed, it's a rarity that emulators emulate some of

After trying Linux on and off for 20 years, only to go back to Windows after a day or so, I feel it's finally usable enough that I ditched Windows a few months ago after using it for 25 years. Linux has come a long way and I'd arg
