It doesn't. You already have a rat infestation issue. This doesn't cause it or further it. You think that little handful of kibble compares to the free calories available in an entire dumpster full of chicago deep dish pizza scrap

If there was 100x on the table for you, why weren't you already at 100x scale just with more headcount? That is the other side of this coin. Demand is a factor. Productivity goes up? Great, if there is demand to satiate that you can me

They'd have to use the gap though to actually kneecap them in that time, or else it is just shoveling money into the fire. The missile gap for example after all was settled and done, didn't matter at all because not a single missi

We are parasites in a sense. Parasites are far more common than symbiotes. It is much quicker evolutionary speaking to up and have a parasitic relationship than to have the far more many step changes to actually taper that parasitic relatio

True for plants too. Black walnut tree not only has a canopy to stymie nearby competitors, it even produces a herbicide.

It is far more complicated than you might gleam. Why don't cheetas run at 300mph right now? They'd catch everything in the bush right? It is a dance of course. Once you go so fast there's probably diminishing returns of what

You can observe evolution on much narrower timescales. People were following how covid was evolving after all. Evolution just means some changes to dna. Even identical twin children have some differences between them.

Nothing stops mutating. What you see with those species is that they found a zone of stability in the fitness landscape, a local optimum. They still have mutants, you just don't see them outcompeting and shifting the makeup of the over

People saying this stuff aren't in the game. ML has been used in clinical research for basically as long as various ML methods have been around. Basically a century now in other words. AI leaders are trying to get money from people who

This goes to show why private r and d is not going to get us that star trek future. Private capital is too risk adverse and short term in outlook for a lot of potential innovation. Interesting to think about how stifled our innovation poten

You want high failure rates. If failure rates were low, that tells you that you are probably being far too conservative in funding new clinical trials.

I think the idea of more opportunities to cross is good but the pricetag is absurd still. After all, they are terraforming a hillside. I think it is a little misplaced though. We assume animals need this to cross but it seems they can take

I'd be baffled if that actually stops you from using a laptop. The seat hardly moves. And the tray slides forward a bit too.

I still don't see it. I am replying to this after scrolling with my laptop halfway up my belly and my palm rest directly on this supposedly too sharp edge. I just don't see what people are doing to induce pain and cuts.

If things were based on pure economics in a vacuum, there would be no good SF based tech jobs. There'd be middling salaries for developers across the country, and probably actually the bulk of the work would actually happen in say latv

Every neuron in the fly brain has been mapped recently. It is an amazing model system to work with. A couple weeks generation time (imagine implications for crossing and growing up mutants). Not just in neuro either. Better than working on

This has to be a "you are holding it wrong" situation. I use my macbook on the desk, on my lap, on my chest laying on my back, and have never once gotten to thinking parts of it should be filed down.
