To summarize the paper more technically: In a large cohort of patients with cognitive decline symptoms, it predicted with 90% accuracy which patients are determined by specialists to have Alzheimer's. This is in contrast to a 60% corre

There is "ftl" then there is "reactionless" then there is "doing better than the rocket equation" We will take any of it.

I don't think you understood what the important parts of cyberpunk were.

The aesthetic lives on, even some of the rhetoric. Cyberpunk as a genre died a rare very final death, the stories came true, the futures they warned of became fact.

Bioaccumulation means sharks collect pollutants like this from the local biosphere. The theories in the article seem dubious. I suspect those sharks test positive for a LOT of things.

Seems like an alignment of incentives, if you want to stay in power you have to make your population live longer.

FTR: This IS politics. This sort of conversation about public policy is what politics should be. I always recommend folks read George Washington's farewell address and it's discussion of political parties.

Yep. You are entirely correct but you miss the point. That "regulatory efficiency" doesn't and can't exist in our current flavor of capitalism. Yes, it is the same as any other industry. But pointing it out about Bitcoin

The problem with PoW is that it creates a system where any jurisdiction with uncaptured externalities dominates. If you have a USA-bitcoin that only accepted blocks by miners verified to be paying real costs for energy, then it would be dif

Adding weight to the controller stands out to me. On one side, the fact materials and electronics are so small and light is awesome, on the other it might be worth making "bespoke" electronics like this in heavier and stronger mat

"We are Legion: We are Bob" is a scifi story that has both. It basically turns the "range" of communication into relative velocity, as relative time dilation shifts transmission frequency beyond processability. An interm

It is very clear that relativity and time dilation due to relative velocity is not part of Star Trek cannon. They live in a "Toy" universe where everything is easy and quartz crystals can be used for FTL travel.

I think the point would be, you don't need a driver, you need a decoder. Those are very cheap.

"Just use a high resolution display" doesn't seem like the corect remedy. Next cheapest would be a low resolution LCD display, (30x80) that has its own set of issues. 7 segments at minimum provide for high visibility even if

Looking at those, I feel like we are approaching the problem entirely wrong. Even in text, you don't try and look at everything at once, zooming out for a "structure overview" seems useful, but that is not what is happening h

Yeah, the constant dissonance with AI safety is that every single AI safety problem is already a problem with large corporations not having incentives aligned with the good of people in general. Profit is just another paperclip.
