This is nonsense. Fungus and mold takes a while to develop, and most probably that timeframe is not over night in ground coffee (or tea). It is still better to do it in the fridge, because if you put it straight in it's less work and t

The author of this paper has done something valuable, but the absolute rant in this twitter thread is frankly incredibly out there. They are dismissive of a purely chemical reason for depression. It quite simply must be due to a stressful

Please stop spreading this GDPR FUD, the demands are very clear - as is the case where you don't need informed consent at all. "New entrants" are either not scared of the GDPR or probably violating it, much like the big playe

So your stance is folks don't deserve freedom because you feel you know better. Such a recipe for a great time.

The statement was "<year>, when I was 3 or 4 years old". I took that to mean it was closer to four, which is not that weird of an age to be able to read. Or at least I thought so, until I looked it up. I guess it is pretty u

Why is that weird? I recall starting videogames around that time, and if the internet had been easier to access I probably would have been on there as well.

This argumentation is based on the "feeling" that something doesn't understand things the way they do and that this is sufficient to say that it is inferior. It's a very old argument against AGI, and it's as boring
