I believe I read, but can't find the source now, that the sex-specific survival rate is mostly explained by men not catching it and starting treatment as early as women. Even for cancers that shouldn't be sex-specific, like lung c

Has the union asked for people to "boycott" the NYT during their strike? I know that sometimes unions want that, and sometimes they want the opposite.

Not as dangerous as a stove, but the Xbox One had a capacitive on-off button. Turns out the dog could turn it off just by his fur touching it when walking by it.

There's lots of stuff you can measure. It's not clear whether any of it is correlated with productivity. To use your example, a user with an LLM might say "LLM please fix this" as a first line of action, drastically impr

I think most of that difference is going to be the huge increase in performance core count between the base chip and the Max (from 4 to 12). The RAM certainly doesn't hurt though!

Ah, you're only going to endanger the livelihood of your employees' families, most of whom have substantially less wealth than you. I bet the rest of your employees don't really care that you "feel bad." At least th

Couldn't you "just" wire the HDMI port to the panel control logic? That is, the HDMI-in doesn't connect to the computer part of the iMac, just to the display circuitry. Edit: nevermind, I see you addressed this in anothe

The claim isn't that everyone in nutrition etc is bought off. You simply don't need to do that. If you're in the sugar industry, you give funding to people investigating how saturated fat causes heart disease. You support org

There are some LLM-powered services that claim to be copilot for games. From what I can tell, it seems like generally they're doing RAG over the game's wiki, and then reading it to you in an attractive-lady voice.
