Undark: https://undark.org/ It's along the lines of Quanta or Nautilus but with more of an investigative type of work, the main goal being bringing under-reported science-adjacent issues to light. They do have a slight

A gaussian blur is not a good test. It does not technically remove all the information from the image. As such this test can't distinguish between unblur or actual moon-pasting. Binning the image, or cropping it in Fourier space, would

The core of a search product is that I want to be able to search. I don't want AI. I don't want a web browser that only works on Mac. I don't want metered searches. I wouldn't mind spending more money if it helped them d

If anyone is interested in similar challenges, but in cryo electron microscopy, where the datasets are dozens of TB, this is a good paper discussing the file formats, header organization, and bit-depth required for proper resolution: https

That article is from 2018. Ubisoft just came back this year. I'm going to guess they're not directly correlated.

If you want to play Nintendo 1st party, you have no choice but Switch. But if you want to play any of the many AAA games that release every year, you can do that on Deck. If we ignore that each is exclusive to the other's platform (i.e

It's not like they have some artificial monopoly though. Developers put their games on Steam (well, some do) because Valve has a huge audience. Valve's audience exists because Steam is a good client and has excellent features, and

Not having license to the Silmarillion isn't why Rings of Power sucked. Rings of Power sucked because the world was not believable, the plots were not believable, the characters were not believable, the societies were not believable, a

Way to double down on your biases. I assure you these people do exist. Work in a shop? What shop doesn't require skills? Deliver packages? Usually need a drivers license, no criminal background. Not everywhere is San Francisco. When yo

5 paragraphs that basically say "some vaccines work better than others" with no analysis, no data presented, not even a heuristic. Somewhat pointless article.

They aren't saying they're not balloons, they're saying they're not sure they're balloons. Huge difference.

1) There are multiple herbicides and multiple pesticides and different ways to skin a cat, not all of which are patented, or for many, the patents have expired. 2) Your second point is more applicable. Who is going to grow these seeds? Peop

I have comment further down the thread discussing it. Biggest one is suing to stop a ballot initiative over guns.

Probably eventually, but perhaps not quite yet. Montana is clearly in a transition phase.

I am a PhD research scientist at one of these Montana universities. I am merely commenting on how the situation has played politically. But thank you for explaining to me what "scientific fact" is.

Science is not the target (maybe to this one freshman congressman, but not the greater legislative agenda). The row precipitated over a ballot initiative that gave Montanans the right to carry firearms on public property, including college

All of public education in Montana falls under the same clause in the state constitution. This is an attack on that clause.

All I'm saying is that this is the current climate. I'm not saying either side is right, just that when the Regents started exercising unilateral authority and ignoring the legislature, that this outcome was predictable.

I never claim it's due to the Regents, although school policies have probably contributed. But if you go back and read my comment, you will see I don't credit the regents with increasing the population of the college towns, but ra

Anyone taking this at face value is misinterpreting the current Montana political situation. There's a Republican majority in both houses and also the governor and most of the executive positions are red as well. In all likelihood, thi

You can go drive past them, even stop to use the porta-potty. (ok, maybe not recommended) I've antelope hunted over there a lot. (East of Harlowtown) and it is as empty as it gets in the contiguous US. They could probably shoot it down

I lived in Killingly for some years. You probably are thinking of the wrong Dunkin. The article states they live near the Troop D barracks, so it's not the Dunkins in Killingly Commons, and the Dunkin closest to the troop D barracks is

These are all good points, but I spent many years living in the town in question, so I am perhaps already biased.
