I know it can be a sensitive topic so I try to make it clear that I am completely uneducated on the topic. As another comment above pointed out. With roughly equal number of men and women, I would naively think that if men are lonely, so a

Why singling out male loneliness? Are females less lonely? Could it help with both? Genuinely asking, I don’t know much on the topic.

You can do the next best thing. Get a very expensive defense team. There are too many instances of people who bought their freedom that way.

This youtube channel is great. I highly recommend to look at their other videos if you like Mario 64.

This video is one of the most scary thing I have watched on climate change. I have been thinking about it since it was published. I have read Michael Mann’s answer to James Hansen and that didn’t make me feel any better. I am really waiting

Should we apply the same reasoning for banning kids from buying alcohol or firearms then?

I have found some legit use cases for generative AI at least.

Remember that when you are giving your DNA to a company, you are also partly doing it for all your family members. Maybe talk about it with them before doing it, especially if it is just for fun.

So you would kill civilians, women and children on a "maybe" and would indiscriminately judge 500k people the same way.

Not sure why you are being downvoted. I can see a pretty strong correlation between the parents who have the will to not simplify their lives by putting kids in front of the TV and parents who will do more than the average parent for their

I forgot where I read that but I remember a neuroscientist studying the impact of TV on learning abilities saying that it is much better to leave a child in a silent room with no stimulation and a dumb toy than putting them in front of a TV

I think I took note of that exact passage: > Some insult to do with the pea jacket (legend quotes it as “Won’t Mamma’s boy catch cold?”) caused Roosevelt to flare up. “Teddy knocked him down,” Hunt recalled admiringly, “and he got up and

If you haven't already, read The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt. One of the best biographies I have ever read.

I read that chapter just before a heat dome settled over the pacific north west. Climate change had never felt so real to me.

Global temperature increase doesn't mean it gets warmer everywhere and anytime. Weather will just become more extreme and there is a good chance that more people will die from harsher winters too.

In B2B, don't build user preferences UI. Configure things for your user directly in the DB.

So does that mean the video would exclude honest mistakes from the researchers? Either it is indeed a superconductor at room temperature or the makers of video actively faked the result.

Can someone ELI5 if the video with the magnet levitating is supposed prove something? Is this visual result only possible with superconductors? If so, why?

Thanks, that’s interesting. Noobie follow up question: Should we put any trust into “Sparks of intelligence” I thought it was regarded as a Microsoft marketing piece, not a serious paper.

I keep reading “GPT4 got nerfed” but I have been using from day 1, and while it definitely gives bad answers, I cannot say that it was nerfed for sure. Is there any actual evidences other than some user subjective experiences?

A really good read: “The mom test” to teach you how to conduct customer interview. There is a lot of things to learn from it that I did not suspected but that are really important.

The CBAM should be a good first step to twist China and US arm into pricing their carbon as it should be.
