No, I made it quite clear it was a question.

Has it? Nothing in my life except gasoline has gotten any cheaper. Edit: I misread the comment. I am aware of the difference between rates and absolutes.

Concerning to see that the author does not realize they cannot relicense GPL code without contributor consent.

Thank you. I've seen all of these things in the last few months, but didn't have the patience to go round them up. This Atlantic article was poor, but especially the end. It started off somewhat talking about facts, and then just

Send me an email to the one in my profile - I'd be happy to chat a bit. Not sure a structure is the best way to get the information you're looking for.

AlphaFold is basically a pattern matching program on steroids. Don't get me wrong, it's incredible, but if there's not experimental data somewhat describing what that variant would look like, AlphaFold is liable to just make

Are you thinking of scanning electron microscopes? Those will give you surface topology - the electrons don't pass through the sample, but instead backscatter. Platinum and gold are commonly sputtered on top to help with the conductivi

The Tundra is supposed to be aimed at the same audience as this microscope. It's Thermo's smaller, cheaper, easier to maintain microscope. They are essentially trying to close off the bottom of the market from their competitors (J

The other answers to your question are quite on point. Of course there are many people interested in this. We aren't there yet, and probably won't ever be (using this technique), but we could begin to paint a picture with lots of

I imagine TV advertisements are an entirely different beast. I'd suppose it's much more difficult to fill TV airtime because the barrier to creating a good TV advertisement is so high. And the expected revenue was probably pre-pri

Probably not. Plenty of toxic proteins have a published structure and are quite easy to grow in a lab (i.e. an undergraduate could do it). The problem with using proteins to do evil things is that they tend to have short half-lives, aren&#x

While that's true, it'd be exacerbated by a few things (in theory): 1) These instruments would still need to generate income to cover service costs. 2) Income generated per microscope would be reduced because of increased competit

Not my submission, but I am a cryo-electron microscopist if anyone has any questions about what's in the article, or more general. (and have worked with some of the people in the article). I will comment that the major expensive most f

This whole thing is so incredibly overblown. Advertisers can flee (although the article only says X is on pace to lose about 75 million) but unless the users do, it's meaningless and they'll come back. Media Matters is a professio

This exists. Look up "Bottomless Coffee" - they have a beta for non-coffee products.

Whole lot of people are not understanding the point. Of course there are kids on the internet. And on Facebook. That's what the article (and lawsuit) are saying. And of course Meta knows it. That is exactly why Meta needs to stop their

OK? What do we expect them to do with the money, exactly? As a donor, I would expect they fund the development of Matrix, which I believe Element is doing?

On a slight tangent, mDNS had turned into an absolute nightmare for me. I must have tried 5 different FOSS Raspberry Pi streaming OSs, none of which did the Spotify cast integration actually work on, until I finally figured out it's be

I was more offended on the idea of buying existing podcasts and putting them behind a paywall, than I was the idea of money being spent on Joe Rogan.

It's always been like that, just way worse because there were 100x fewer bands and artists even 30 years ago. >I think you are conflating “music” with “music consumers” I think you somehow missed the very first sentence of my commen

Music consumption has basically never been in a better place. What Spotify pays artists, and how many employees at Bandcamp get laid off are minor, in the big picture. My music consumption goes something like this: 1) Queue up a known band

no, that's what they are for. The entire point is that they don't care about optics. I let my membership go when it came obvious they were starting to care.
