The OpenAI partnership doesn't really affect the core issue here around users deleting their content. That has never been welcome on Stack Overflow and when noticed usually was reversed. This is in accordance with the license as far as

Hmm, in the earlier AlphaFold 2 paper they state: > Input mmCIFs are restricted to have resolution less than 9 Å. This is not a very restrictive filter and only removes around 0.2% of structures NMR structures are more than 0.2% so that

I think it is very plausible that they don't use NMR structures here, but I was looking for a specific statement on it in the paper. I think your guess is plausible, but I don't think the paper is clear enough here to be sure abou

Looking at the supplementary material (section 2.5.4) for the AlphaFold 3 paper it reads to me like they still use NMR structures for training, but not for evaluating performance of the model.

I think internships are a different case compared to regular employement. Internships are time limited anyway, and the interns are likely less able to compensate the potential financial aspects of a short term cancellation.

There is a difference between just slashing the program and reneging on already approved internships. The latter is quite unprofessional.

The part where I think there is some flexibility is about the difference between "bytes attempted to transfer" and "bytes actually transferred". I think it is pretty fair to bill for the former, as long as you abort requ

There is probably a small area where it's difficult to measure, so I would not expect billing to be exact to the byte here. But billing for the requested range if not the entire range was actually transferred is just not correct and no

That sounds egregious enough that I have trouble believing this can be correct. My understanding is that AWS bills for egress for every service, parts of the file that aren't transferred are not part of this so can't be billed. Th

With 70$/kg that's at the upper end of typical prices for specialty coffee (though I'm not familiar with US prices specifically). No idea if they are at a level where they can compete at that price point, a single blend as ma

Starship does seem to make very reasonable progress, the last test flight was pretty successful. And NASA has much more visibility into the actual progress of SpaceX here than we outsiders have. I don't think you can compare Hyperloop

That statement is PR bullshit, I expected better from Waymo. Nobody fell, so it misidentified the situation. And there was nothing careful about the overtake maneuver here, there was no safe place to end the maneuver in sight. These kinds o

I would be curious to know what the car thought the situation was, something must have gone really wrong here. It ignored the double lines and crossed them to overtake and then stayed in the wrong lane for a really long time. If the car und

A bit later than you, and not in the US. But as my teacher was born around World War 2 (estimated from their retirement date) I don't think it is unexpected that they had a very different view. Biology has fundamentally changed in that

My experience with high school biology was similar, though that might have been that particular teacher. He was close to retirement and while he could have identified most plants in the region, he could not answer most of my questions about

I'm rather confused by the description of events here. The article focuses on the lack of consent, which of course is a very important topic. But the main issue to me here seems to be the use of blood products that were known to be oft

Even without that it seems a bit dubious to not have any other mechanism to keep the pad and pedal together. So even without the soap this could be a problem, just maybe would have taken a bit longer until it appeared.

There was one huge breaking change, that was the move from the Windows-only .NET Framework to the cross-platform .NET Core. I assume that is the one the parent is talking about. The major releases of modern .NET are relatively painless now,

I don't think the point here changes all that much if you change this to two servers and a load balancer. That's still a pretty simple setup. But I also think that many applications are far more tolerant of small outages than you

You are justifying an illegal war of aggression here. Claiming some nebulous security concerns does not justify invading a sovereign nation. Ukraine did express their desire to join NATO, that is their right as a sovereign nation. Russia do

This seems to be attributed to a technical problem and not turbulence so far. Probably should be a bit skeptical about any explanation this early, but I'm wondering which systems would be powerful enough to cause something like this. F

Showing your co-authors the manuscript for the first time a few hours before you submit it to Nature is not how it's done, not at all. That is really unusual and a giant red flag, though the PhD students were probably not experienced e
