Well, I think that's basically RFK's fundamental belief: people who have certain lifestyles are significantly more immune to a wide range of diseases, and that we should focus resources on improving lifestyle rather than investing

Some of these replies are from folks who want to stir unrest and don't actually believe what they're saying. Other folks read selectively; they skim over or ignore the statements they don't agree with. Yet other folks are ide

I recommend spending some time as a public health official; it helps understand the logic that PH people apply when they make policy. I also recommend reading a bunch about the history of vaccines and the challenges associated with them.

which would matter if we were using logical arguments about unambiguous things. So far as I can tell, the only thing which can be argued about logically is mathematics.

His opinions on vaccines - using his own words - demonstrate he is anti-vaccine. It's not just CNN; we could easily copy/paste many statements he's made undermining confidence in a large number of vaccines. https:/&#x

The article hides the truth which is that it has no direct attached durable storage, but is connected via a Fabric to existing HPC hardware, which almost certainly loads data to the Spinnaker and stores results. At the end of the day, proce

Show us a real example of something that your putative non physics science can do that physics cannot, in a way that would be comprehensible to a sufficiently open minded science. It seems unlikely you could suggest a concrete alternative t

For a while at google you would get $5k per patent submission and $10k for each approved(?) one. Given how easy it was, I could have matched my annual salary. It's depressing how easy it is to get a system architecture (unimplemented

Think of it from this perspective: you made a claim but you don't have data to support it. It's easy for individuals to be prone to false conclusions because we often conflate weak correlations as causation, when often times, ran

The site confuses the inference engine in the Edge TPU with the datacenter TPU. They are two unrelated projects. Based on the paper they're borrowing from, I think they are trying to go for a much older datacenter inference-only TPU,

This is an anti-pattern. Do not make DSLs for subdomains of science. All scientific data can be stored and queried using general-purpose data analysis tools.

Not at this time, and I don't see it changing enough in 3 years to make any difference. The fear of being attacked by MAGA is still very high, I think the (older) republican leadership has decided to just wait this out.

I don't think anybody is 100% certain that doing a full quantum simulation of a protein (in a box of water) would recapitulate the dynamics of protein folding. It seems like a totally reasonable claim, but one that could not really be

In practice this turns out to be extremely challenging. I've been through many labs with a ton of automated stuff that is... constantly being worked on by a range of 3rd party techs, rather than actually running in response to models.

I believe new liver cells come from both dividing mature hepatocytes, and hepatocyte stem cells. Cells can only divide a limited number of times, and they can't easily re-differentiate, so I would expect that while dividing mature hep
