General anesthesia disrupts the ability of regions of the brain to network coherently. Individual regions might still be ticking along, but your experience of consciousness is a result of the network.

I'm sure that the people of Tibet at the very least would feel strongly about the notion of a peaceful, non-expansionist China. You could ask the people of the Philippines as well, or for an admittedly more complicated answer the peopl

Overall it’s a reason to sigh deeply and thank our fellow “visionary leaders” for making everything that little bit worse. At least we’re getting an AI paradise out of the deal right? Right?

If the size of an army represented a reliable measure of its ability to project power, we’d all be trembling at the might of North Korea.

I would certainly expect a country with 4x the population of the US, which is used as the center of global manufacturing, to need a lot of power. I’m not sure that’s something that anyone should be concerned about from a geopolitical point

In the world of Chinese media I suppose? To me this all looks like the same hand-wringing angst we went through in the 1980’s with the industrialization of Japan bearing massive fruit. Right down to the shaky real estate markets.

Maybe that should be discouraged? Even if you don't think so, most companies aren't de facto attempts to skirt gambling regulations while also incentivizing corruption and fraud in everyday life.

For what it's worth the only "official address" I could find was Apple Park in Cupertino.

Exactly. It also ignores recent genetic testing that's showing how different mental illnesses and developmental disorders cluster around the same dysfunctional gene cohorts. To very little surprise ADHD and Autism appear to be closely

It’s amazing to see a disproven and frankly ancient viewpoint espoused with a straight face here. When I was a kid in the eighties your way of thinking was already defunct.

Kojima saw the writing on the wall so speak, and told us what the future held in a series of metaphors and dense monologues.

I would be very cautious about any conclusions regarding its health benefits or detriments. Nutrition research is notoriously difficult to replicate or show causal links in humans engaging with the real world. Texas A&M also has a coffe

Do you really believe that "activists" and suspected criminals are given the same treatment as some entrepreneurs who just lost their shirts? This feels like an excuse to bring up something that's fundamentally unrelated to t

This seems like, to be very very VERY generous as per the guidelines, a case of limited superficial similarities being blown out of proportion. Assuming the best of intentions.

Unreliable mediocrity, because you simply can never be sure when the damned thing lies/hallucinates unless you double-check everything. So now you're wrangling an "AI" system and you're doing most of the work you wo

And of course there was the entire Thai Cave rescue, and the utter nuisance he made of himself.

The missing part seems to be that they need infusions of money to keep this “business model” running a little longer. In this world if you want prompt money and lots of it, advertising is the way.

I think you have a point, and of course no one study is going to be perfect. At the same time though one of the major strengths of this study is that it looked at large numbers of both MtF and FtM patients, and the results seem consistent,

It’s in the study under the controls section. “The Population Information System provided four male and four female controls, matched for birth year and municipality of birth for each gender-referred individual. The index date of the gender

The study involves a large number of people over approximately a quarter century, and its methodology is very robust. I don’t believe it’s an argument against recognition and kindness towards gender minorities, either intended or de facto.

Not just mites, we’re absolutely covered and full of commensal organisms. What’s really interesting is how specialized these organisms have become, like the difference between body and head lice. We have critters socialized to just our eyeb

When Amazon started locking it all down last year I bailed on their ecosystem for Kobo’s store, but I use a Boox device. As long as I can back it up in any format I’m happy, and as soon as Amazon crossed that line they lost my business.
