The article mentions: In addition, similar to a previous report using a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease,56 the relative abundance of the pathobiont genera Desulfovibrio was significantly increased in Alzheimer’s patients c

If the average wild mouse lives a much shorter life does that help with the moral calculus? Nature is pretty brutal. I've seen crows get into a burrow of baby rabbits and it didn't end well for the bunnies. I'm guessing you

I requested and received a sit-stand desk at my office. Not sure if standing at a desk is that much better but hopefully so.

Wouldn't it make more sense to create ten streams of images of the same class and then see which one results in the smallest compressed size for a test image? That is, if I gzip a hundred '6's plus my test image and get a co

I was wondering instead what their dating method would do with old sand that had been dug up and quickly buried during the construction. Does a very short exposure to sun reset the mineral signature they are looking at? If not, then the s

Even among just software devs I'm guessing far more time is wasted on passive consumption like TikTok, YouTube, etc.

There has been speculation that GPT4 is a mixture of experts model, where each expert could be hosted on a different machine. As those machines may report their results to the aggregating machine in different orders then the results could

You forgot the effects of adjusting your prediction on questions that asked multiple different questions, not just one. I think I can guess okay how well it would do at forming a word with specific letters, but what's the probability

They do show training on HTML is still leading to improvements across languages. It looks to me like training on C led to the biggest average improvement among the tested languages. I'm curious if the effect translates to humans as w

Your first point is a good one, at some point the costs aren't worth it. Perhaps the solution there is toll roads instead of freeways because then a large portion of the costs are imposed on the users. Your second point relates to your

My takeaway from the article is that inflation is the root of all evil in the American economy right now and we're doomed. Which ignores the fact that we've been through bouts of inflation before and so have other countries. It

Denser housing is more expensive than less dense housing. I personally believe we should work on making commuting from farther distances more reliably fast. In some cities this would mean building more highways, but that solution has been

That would be far more impressive if true. The equations while having a number of magic numbers also don't have that many parameters, so it would seem difficult to find such equations to fit well to images.

Housing wouldn't be expensive if you could teleport anywhere instantaneously. No matter how hard homeowners wanted to keep prices high. I see some much cheaper more luxurious homes listed in less dense cities than mine. I suspect we&

I've had success following the rabbit holes of asking questions to ChatGPT (paid, GPT4), which leads to more questions, and so on. It's like following Wikipedia links but I can ask about exact knowledge gaps I have. Eventually so

My young kids would be totally unaware if they were bumping into others, or causing them to stop abruptly, or otherwise interfering with others. Of course if those strangers yelled at them or provided some less harsh form of feedback it mi

I haven't seen prediction contacts that can be resolved at 50% before. It seems like that throws off the interpretation of the probability.

This reminds me of how I got interested in Minecraft. Notch released a video of a roller coaster (mine carts) made in the game which piqued my curiosity on what else could be done in the game.

I spent a couple hours pasting old ChatGPT (gpt-4) prompts into Claude to compare. I would say it's about 80-90% as good as GPT-4 for general purpose inquiries. There were some crucial misses that ChatGPT got and Claude didn't b

To help others understand, This image shows that there's only two possible locations left where all the circles intersect. Because the game gives exact distance to the target the correct answer must be on the circles.
