Gotcha. Yeah, I misread your comment then. I thought you were suggesting that innovation here is stalled because the likes of abbott aren't incentivized to build it. My point was mostly that I don't think that's the case s

For starters, I think it's reasonable to break these distributors up into multiple distributors. One of the big issues with a company like Taylor Farms is that when something like cyclospora hits, we all discovered that the grocery sto

Here's a pretty good video about the problem in general. https://youtu.be/nyG-np0S0ZQ The jist is that a lot of this is from consolidation at all levels. There are fewer grocery stores and distributors which has ultima

Looks like nothing. It's arch with a bunch of pre installed apps and a few goodies on top. My guess is relationships and fame went a long way towards getting those funds.

I can all but guarantee you they are the same device. IDK if they are even binned differently. The software is the main difference. The "real" device gives you what it measures as your real highs and lows while the OTC devices w

I agree, but there are a lot of factors going on to contribute to that number. For example, about 20% of that number is because someone is finding out for the first time they have T1D [1]. Insulin costs and monitoring costs are also going t

For abbott, no. But what about for Garmin, Apple, Samsung, or Google? Diabetics would snap up a smart watch which does accurate glucose monitoring in a heartbeat.

I'm expecting the drop for a couple of reasons. For 1, AI datacenter builders have said that they have more equipment than they have places to put them. Leaving a ton of hardware shelved while you wait for datacenters to build out is

This study compared a group that drank peppermint oil against a group that drank peppermint oil. These researchers picked a placebo that was the thing they were trying to test. The dingdongs didn't think that "flavorings" co

Garbage study. The placebo was literally peppermint oil (they say what it is in the study). [1] They claim it didn't have peppermint oil in it because it's not listed in the ingredients... but the ingredients have a catch all &quo

Even worse, the placebo group drank peppermint cordial. The researchers are arguing there is no peppermint oil in it because it's not a listed ingredient, but the listed ingredients have "flavorings". Which, I'd be sho

I think that's more than likely here as "placebo" was literally this peppermint cordial [1]. They say it doesn't have peppermint oil in it... but it does list "flavorings" and I don't know how you make som

I'm expecting it to somewhat collapse. I don't know if it'll go back to pre bubble prices (here's to hoping), but I do expect a pretty sharp decline around 2030... probably not before then. Basically everyone that makes

Oh wow. I didn't know Subaru made EVs... and I can see why. That's horrible. It's really strange how much these older manufacturers struggle to make a good EV.

by cogman10 2mo ago
Oh I totally agree. That was my point. Someone hired as a scientific reporter should be able to do as good or better than an LLM. The fact that they were far worse is an indictment.

by cogman10 2mo ago
Wow. I wasn't expecting this. I thought they were going to do a 35B model instead.

by cogman10 2mo ago
This is one of those cases where an LLM does a better job. I prompted sonnet with 'Write a news article about "quantum batteries"' and included the names of the researchers and it wrote a better and more accurate article

Mine is the same. That's why I find a car that only accepts 60kW and charges for 3 hours to be odd. Even if I limited my car to only 60kW, it'd take about 1 hour and 4 minutes to get 80% and another 20 minutes for the remaining 2

You have a 180KWh battery that only takes 60KW? What are you driving? That's a weird configuration.

My reading between the lines of the article is that the application would likely be in quantum computing circuits. Where it can be tricky to deliver and store power because everything is supercomputing icebergs. But I agree, this article i

I find this article pretty annoying and frankly just misleading trash. The author seems to clearly not know almost even the basics of batteries and power so they are trying to ham fistedly find applications for this device. With even the r

Yeah, it was a pretty silly and annoying opening to the article. Power is the only reason there's any difference in charge time for any of these devices. The reason their laptop is taking so long to charge is because they are likely

Honestly, I think an easier answer is that intelligent life is simply very rare and interstellar travel is very hard. We may be the only intelligent life within our galaxy. Or perhaps just 1 in 100. In either case, it'd take a LONG

My understanding is that 2027 is when all the energy stored in the ocean will ultimately be released in the form of massive storms. IDK if it'll be hotter or not, but it's predicted to be pretty insane, particularly throughout th

El nino predictions are pretty spot on. They won't be able to tell you "There will be a storm on the 30th" but they will be able to tell you that you should expect flash floods next year. Unfortunately for where I'm at,

The largest projects, like Box Elder County Utah and Pecos County Texas, are using fossil fuels. In fact, I'm unaware of any new AI data center also being built with 0 carbon generation. Do you have a source?

I'd disagree. Most religions don't love apostasy but they also don't actively tell their members to go out of their way to punish or avoid non-believers. The reason cults severely punish ex members is to protect the flock.

Not really. Both mainstream political parties don't like each other, but by and large they don't attack someone for leaving the party (from what I've seen). Perhaps if you are saying attacks of politicians switching parties,
