The two easy areas I can cite are the lackluster results of the RECOVER initiative ( https://erictopol.substack.com/p/long-covid-mitochondria-the... ), and the complete failure of any government to distribute vaccines we

There needs to be more research into this horrible disease. There are no yet confirmed biomarkers for it, so doctors dismiss patients as crazy or "making it up." Once there is a biomarker, perhaps like this protein, we can actuall

I just did a cursory readthrough. Am I correct to think this feels a bit like heartbleed, but for CPU registers rather than memory?

I'd like to know how the bot handles copyrighted information, as well as things like music and images licensed in different ways. Also, where is this data going? The existing ChatGPT says it has nothing past 2021.

RIP Kevin. What a loss. That guy's court case basically defined the 90s for many of us.

It sounds like you were involved in this. Since you were working there so long ago, would you be willing to write up a technical account of the things you did? I'd be interested in learning more about it. I figure the tech from 10 year

To me this makes no sense. Isn't the point of a performance improvement process to.... help someone improve? Nobody is perfect, and if your performance isn't in line with what your boss thinks it should be, isn't the approp

I had dismissed this as yet another tab management browser widget thingy, but I took a closer look at it. To me, what is really standout, is what they have done with "spaces." They are basically profiles, which is something no bro

It's interesting to differentiate between tech conferences and hacker conferences. When you compare tech conferences, as cited in the article and in this thread, to conferences like DefCon (at least in the AP days), HOPE, and CCC Congr

To test this in practice, I just went ahead and uploaded an image of Michaelangelo's "David" which has been a topic of recent controversy. https://imgur.com/a/aTiH5lk Let's see if that violates thes

My favorite part of the response he got is "there's not much more we can do on our end." Coming from the same company that did the suspension. Among things they could do: * Have another team review the complaint * Be more tra

What's interesting is that I absolutely love and adore Philip Glass's music, but I normally hate minimalism. I also dislike musicians who try to copycat Glass. It's like there is something deeper within Glass's music tha

First Dan Kaminsky, then Peter Eckersly, and now Aloria. This whole trend of people dying so young needs to stop. People need to take care of themselves, go to the doctor, make sure to find any issues you might have, and be responsible in a

I just have to point out the irony that a company which believes so much in virtual work that they renamed themselves after the "metaverse" is now thinking to require employees to return to the office.

I think we may have a different view on what the purpose of a government is. Would you be ok with the military forcefully entering a tech company, pointing guns at the employees, and forcing them to do something? Because in my opinion, that

First, the phrase "cherry-picked" implies that something has been removed from a context which changes its meaning. The quote I shared was from an email that Prince sent, and if anything, the full context enhances the point I was
