the simple math is these companies spend less than 20% of their revenue on drug development and have operating margins over 40% so prices don't need to be as high as they are

GP never implied the amount of ozone just the amount of aluminum oxide. All I know is catalysts can speed up reactions by orders of magnitude. CFCs actually created a hole in the ozone layer so its not like human activities haven't acc

I think it says its a catalyst, for some chlorine reaction. So its not out of the question 300 tons (per year) could effect ozone concentrations.

It surprised me they called it an M4 vs an M3 something. The display engine seems to be the largest change I don't know what that looked like on previous processors. Completely hypothesizing but could be a significant efficiency improv

It can have a different input and appears to display things in three dimensions, and maybe someone will come up with a killer app. Currently though I just connect my macbook to it and use that as the input, I think that'll be enough on

Interesting I feel like those uses are all not that revolutionary but they were wildly successful. Just different sized touch screens. You could argue the vision pro is just a different monitor, but even if that is all the pro is it could b

they reduce the supply of stock available, that is a difference. If its material is a different question, I'd argue it is but don't have data to back that up. If a company has to buy back 10 billion in stock over a fixed time peri

You could also frame it as they sold you an NFC capable phone and not really providing NFC functionality, which doesn't seem fair or at least deceptive.

My workflow doesn't get a huge improvement from the current AI assistants. That could mean I'm out of a job soon. If it works for you that's great. I'm just curious to see numbers from places that I assume somewhat meani

It'd be nice to see the actual numbers at Meta, Google, Microsoft etc. My own work hasn't been multiplied by more than 1.01.

More of a society issue than individual. A middle class person will use a lot more resources than a poor person. The poor person will likely be more affected by the environmental change brought about by the resource use, less food secure et

the article states the recommendation is for middle and high school students so maybe a little overlap. I assume most kids can be autonomous when they are in high school.

The articles based on a questionable paper. 15 to 35 isn’t a tight band. The top of the range would have twice as many as the bottom.

Interesting that different society’s have such different levels of female participation in stem. I’d view that as evidence that society heavily influences these gender participation rates.

I'm just arguing from a perspective that society influences women not to go into STEM, and that's not a positive thing.

Things that are considered normal in society like women not being interested in it and engineering are self reinforcing. I don't know of any studies that indicate they shouldn't be doing those jobs, just that they are more likely

If a young woman was interested in STEM and saw your comment it would be a reason for them not to go into STEM. That is bad. It pushes someone away from what they might be interested in.

I doubt it the slow version uses division instead of bit shifting. My guess would be the fast version saturated like i/o or some non cpu portion of the processor and the division one was bottle necked by the division logic in the proc

I don't think the op said stop using oil for productive uses. I assume they'd be against any large electric car too. People in rich/not poor nations use too many resources and I'd say even the vast majority aren't a
