lol saying that a number in reality will be irrational is peak pedantry. Try again, sweaty.

That's nice, but reality doesn't live on the real number line.

I can't believe no one has pointed out the one huge fatal flaw in metric time yet. The resting heart rate of a healthy adult is approximately 60 BPM. So 1 second is 1 heart beat, which makes it extraordinarily intuitive since it's

Idk about you guys but the only reason I do peer review is to reject competitors and enemies. If I really hate them, I give them a "Major Revision" aka a laundry list of expensive follow-up experiments and then reject them on the

I'm not sure why you're downvoted because that's a hilariously accurate description of quantum mechanics.

Unobservable is not the same as unknowable. For example, the form of the universe beyond what can be observed could correlate with a testable hypothesis in the observed universe.

Creating an aligned diffusion model is like trying to create an aligned axe. At the end of the day it's just a dumb tool with no real understanding. It doesn't have the ability to be "aligned".

It sounds like he's saying this is not an abuse of the central government, but by a local one. I doubt VPNs are illegal in China in general.

You're not saying anything I disagree with. Technology will, and has been very quickly improving those limitations.

Again, the vast majority of people disagree with you. Stop pushing your values onto others.

Solar, wind and nuclear (theoretically) are limitless. > We can't just magically stop the greenhouse effect. You're absolutely right, that's why tech is the only non-magical solution. Anyone thinking they can change the be

I disagree. There is more untapped energy and resources in this world than we could ever hope for, We just need to develop the tech to access it. Climate change too could be solved with tech. Theres no other choice.

The vast majority of people disagree with your subjective opinion. Most people dont want to sit in front of their computer their entire lives.

Bush, Trump and Biden are all boomers, as were most people in congress. If you're blaming federal spending, it sounds like a reasonable statement to make that "boomers tanked the economy"?

No. The press aligns with the lived experiences of literally any person who shops at those stores with any regularity. To think that Target stores in the heart of SF and Seattle couldn't have enough business to be profitable outside of

by aydyn 3y ago
It is agenda pushing. It is very obvious from a boots-on-the-ground perspective that safety and crime is a HUGE issue at these particular stores. This lines up perfectly with the statements, narrative and statistics that Target and CNN are

Can we please stop being armchair experts? Go to the target stores in question, you can see people walking out with phat stacks every single day while staff can do nothing except watch. Pretending theft isnt a problem is naive at best but l

Nanopore has a much, much higher error rate and you still need sample extraction / sample prep all the same.

> Veganism is about not using animal products. It says nothing about the health of the diet. When I google "why be vegan" all the top 5 results are "because of health". So objectively, you are wrong. It sounds like yo

Even if you were able to start sequencing immediately, standard sequencing alone takes on the order of a day. And then depending on your computational methods, could take another few hours. Remember that it's not just the sequencer, yo

Sure that's true livestock are processed as well, but one of the benefits of going vegan is healthier eating. You can't even call impossible burgers healthier. As far as taste, I'll admit that meat burgers are much more varia
