Considering all the endless meetings, conferences and discussions scientists have to attend and find room to do research in between, I doubt that the issue is a lack of means for them to discuss... I also highly disagree that publishing doe

It still confidently said that the feathers were lighter than the lead. It did correct itself when I asked it to check again though.

I'd argue that it really depends on the kind of criticism. What I had in mind was more along the lines of accusing someone of wrongdoing rather than just criticizing them. I think tagging someone when you're accusing them of wrong

I tend to use the two interchangeably, since most websites don't really differentiate between them on the user-facing side.

You can still mute his account. That has always been an option, and that is not changing with this.

I see "this video is awful, check out my channel" or "I did X awful thing, check my channel!" style spam comments on YouTube daily.

Not to mention people attempting to slander others behind a block (so the person being slandered has no idea until the damage is already done), or temporarily unblocking to say something to someone, and then blocking again.

I've been waiting for this for a while, this has been pretty blatant for a while now. Credit card processors end up having unjust influence over every business that has a significant online component, and the processors don't hold

That can seem like a big deal at first, but it's pretty normal since these things are at the cutting edge of technology. Theories or highly simplified versions of experimental techniques are often proposed decades before the technology

Fate went in the other direction, started as a visual novel and got some very popular anime adaptations, that led to the gacha game being made, which led to some of the especially popular parts of that game's stories being adapted into

Unsurprising considering how a lot of other media has become nothing but an endless series of big budget, overly "safe" or overly ideologically motivated remakes/adaptations.

Most people already put their expensive thin phones in thick cases, so, no, besides dumb teenagers, I doubt anyone would care. But simultaneously, I don't know if that many people would consider it to be selling point either nowadays.

It's a big chunk of confirmation bias (you don't remember all the times when that doesn't happen) and all sorts of less obvious behavioral correlations, like, if you tend to talk to someone weekly, and it's been a week s

I think it'd be clearer to say they did fundamental research as part of nuclear weapons research. The goal of the facility is to perform testing that can help to validate the continued functioning and yield of the nuclear weapon stockp

This was passed 45-2, from a committee with 29 Republicans and 23 Democrats, so it's interesting to see a bunch of comments here acting like this is just a Republican thing.

X shut down API access in Feb 2023, Reddit shut theirs down at the end of June of the same year. Just barely 6 months apart. Furthermore, while X had also only announced this in February, Reddit announced their API shutdown just 2 months la

Back in undergrad I had to attend an event that was about these extreme social justice-y topics, and yeah, it was pretty self defeating. Was my first exposure to that kind of thing outside of the internet. It was kind of offensive, since a

CADquery was a neat intro to using code for CAD, but it ended up being kind of a pain when it came down to designing stuff that I'd want to be able to come back to and understand months later (ie being able to tell what exactly each nu

The universities might've deemed it to be an important enough PR situation and low risk enough to do it. Alternatively maybe they were obligated to back them up if the work was done in their official capacity as faculty?

Ah that's a very good point, I was way too focused on the early morning timing and forgot about that.

I think the main factor might've been crew wakefulness. Since they launched around the same time, I think their body clocks would've been tuned to that time too. They'd want all crew to be at the peak of their alertness in ca

If we're looking at its emissions with all those downstream requirements involved too, the point of comparison would be all the emissions involved in everything that the average American relies on, which is certainly not just 16 tons.

Plus, big tech do fund fundamental research, a bunch of them are working on quantum computing for instance. None of that is likely to turn a profit any time soon and the research is expensive. But they do it anyway.

The headline makes it sound like they're somehow, by sheer coincidence, matched to the same dinosaur. But it's just the much less sensational and novel seeming find of footprints from the same species.

If we go off the 1.4 million passengers daily number, 48% would mean ~700k people who don't pay the fare. NYC has a population of ~9 million. I find it hard to believe that ~7% of the population can't afford to pay for transit con
