How do you know which ones are the hard ones? I don't think it's easy to figure that out.

It's an enormous amount of energy packed into a single tiny particle. But it's still just a single tiny particle, so it's not a lot of total energy. It's like how you can lift a heavy weight for a second, but that's

Year month day makes sense. Month day year makes sense because that's how people talk: I'll be there February 5, etc. Month day year makes no sense because it's backwards, and no one talks that way. So why use that?

It would be quite an interesting result if we could have true General AI, but we don't simply because of copyright. I'm aware this isn't a concern yet, but imagine if the future played out this way.... Or worse: Only those wi

Actually it's still ambiguous, because you forgot about sub-expressions. How would you parse this: SELECT a as aliasA b select q from foo as aliasQ c as aliasC FROM d as aliasD e Even if you can figure it out (and add a 3rd lev

You want to replace comma with space or newline, and use parentheses to disambiguate subexpressions. I'm not convinced this is better than what you are replacing.

> Black History month has been attacked and removed because the President and many of his supporters are racist. That's why It could also be that Google wanted to show off their time machine, so they removed it 9 months ago.

Yes very obvious, and also demonstrates that Google owns a time machines, since they did this 9 months ago.

Doesn't this shoot them in the foot? Once they get it working they have less time left on the patent.

So basically all the "good" bots will follow the law, and all the scamming and problematic bots won't, giving people a false sense of security, and leaving everyone worse off than they were before.

First of all the washing procedure they used is not what is used commercially. Commercially they also spray mineral oil on the eggs which this study did not do. And then of course there's this line: "These differences between unwa

Maybe I'm using the word wrong, but H5 is the root cause, while free range is the proximate cause.

I'm not conflating it. Spread with Avian flu means to other places. A single chicken in a farm means ALL chickens will get it. That's such a trivial thing, it's not even worth noting. What matters is how does it spread . I t

I'm not just theorizing here, I've actually done it. Multiple times, as in, every day. I don't refrigerate my US eggs, I've been doing that for years, with zero problems.

I've left them for 2 months (I found a big sale, so I bought a bunch). The yolk broke easily when I opened the egg, but it was perfectly fine to eat. And it was not small and dried out as implied by someone in the thread.

No, that's simply not true. It's being spread by wild birds, not concentrated farming. I know people love to blame "big anything", but it's just not true here. Here's a source: https://www.cdc.gov&#x

US eggs last exactly the same amount of time, and they do not actually require refrigeration, it's basically a custom at this point that customers expect.

by ars 2y ago
It's also not true. You can keep US eggs out of the fridge with zero problems, and they do not "transpire" in a month, that's simply not true. I keep my US eggs for months at a time, out of the fridge, with zero problems

I wonder if that's a geographical thing, with fewer infected wild birds in Canada. The disease is not spreading due to factory farms, large or small, it's spreading via wild birds.

That's because chickens raised for meat don't live long enough to be affected. A second reason is because chickens get sick by contact with wild bids, due to free range laws for egg laying chickens. Meat chickens don't go out

That's actually not true. Bird flu comes from wild birds, not factory farming. Chickens get it when wild birds land near them due to free range laws. The solution (possibly temporary) is to confine the chickens in sealed buildings so t

The commercial eggs also last forever outside the fridge. That thing about the natural sealant is a widely believed myth. Source: I leave my commercial eggs outside the fridge, and they last with zero problems.

Free ranging chickens is the proximate cause of Bird Flu. Chickens get it from wild birds that land near them. States are going to have to repeal those laws and confine chickens in sealed buildings to protect them.

The article does not imply that they reduced standards in order to let DEI student pass. Rather they added an insane biographical test that only DEI students could pass, with the net effect of dramatically reducing the availability of ATC&#

In theory sure, in practice DEI = hiring quotas. The definition you want DEI to have: Extra training for DEI students, does not exist in the real world. And if it did no one is complaining about it. > That’s a lazy and stupid approach

How is this not DEI? This was a deliberate and conscious attempt to create a test that would pass DEI candidates at higher rates, with question that had nothing to do with the actual needed skills. And they did it because they were pressure

That's not an accurate way of describing this. The biographical screen was not flawed, it was designed to try to pass minority students at higher rates than non minority (for example that question on "your hardest topic" need
