I understand it’s “damaging”, but how stable is it? CO2 is bad because it doesn’t just go away. Methane, while being more “damaging”, eventually breaks down into CO2 and water.

I’ve only used the version that comes with Office 365, but oh boy is it terrible.

Yes I’m wondering the same. I guess the news here is that google is finally getting the edge over OpenAI when they should have had the lead all along.

Funny that no one’s mentioning the air cooled VW boxer engine which had variants manufactured for 70 years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_air-cooled_engine

The Trump admin. continues the classic bully move, “Find the weak and pick on them, so that others are too afraid to act against them”. Fuck you Trump these are my neighbors and they’re good people.

You need to think about the aggregate data. Whole trends can be seen in almost real-time. Here’s a made up example, and it’s probably not even the best one. - Show Teckno-Detectives shows a “Cameo” of Grapple’s newest mixed-reality glasses.

Some, yes. If you’re genuinely curious I’d invite you to read project blue book or read through nuforc reports. But I get it. If I hadn’t heard some things first hand from credible witnesses I’d be more skeptical too.

There are probably 1000s of reports of from people across the globe that are seeing very similar things that remain unexplained. If the evidence went to a courtroom, I think certain UAP “cases” would pass have a positive “verdict” based on

It seems like anything that has a hint of legitimizing UAP in any way will promptly be dismissed by the establishment within a day of making headlines. It’s curious that our culture is willing to use any other explanation at all, no matter

Which statistics? Are you talking about statistics linking poverty to crime? Or lead ingestion leading to aggressiveness? Or are you just being subtly racist?

Crime statistics are heavily influenced by poverty and environmental conditions. The average man, however, is always stronger than the average woman. I invite you to ask 5 female friends how safe they feel meeting a random male and asking f

This move is so counter-intuitive to me. You prefer tents? You want people to have less security? You’d rather people stored their stuff in a cart that they have to push around everywhere? You can’t abolish poverty but you can sure make i

> It's no different than white people not wanting black drivers, and Uber supporting that. This is a false analogy. Men tend to be 40% to 60% stronger than women and testosterone is well linked with aggressiveness. A better comparis

Also, when testing for pregnancy you want to be as “sure” as possible and price is assumed to be an indicator of quality.

Cheer up! If the universe is really inside a black hole from a parent universe eventually it may evaporate via hawking radiation if the same laws of physics hold. :) Maybe heat death is just the flip side of Hawking radiation?

I used to feel this way too. It’s not really nothing if that helps. It still has 3 dimensions. Light and gravity pass through it. It has “vacuum energy” and virtual particles. There are still atoms, albeit further apart.

I don’t think the administration seriously thinks Harvard will accept these terms. This will just be used as more fodder against “liberal elites”. Conservative media will then headline with “Harvard rejects Trumps reforms on DEI” or “Harva

The goal is power. Suppressing DEI, etc is just a simple way to find a group of people that have different values and eliminate them from the power structure.

The lack of new training data also makes it bad at projects that are still maturing because it will suggest outdated code - or worse it will mix/match old and new syntax and generate something completely broken. I worry that the lack o

> If they? it? wanted to harm us they could/would. But how do we know they aren’t doing harm in subtle ways? Thus I’m embracing cognitive dissonance. I think the evidence points to something but I refuse to decide it’s real.

I’ve come to few conclusions about this recently. 1. Most people will never believe in UFOs until they see one for themselves in an unambiguous way or hear a report from someone in person that they believe is credible. There is too much

I came to the comments to say this too. If you were prompting it to generate code, you generally get better results when you ask it for a result. You don’t just tell it, “You are a python expert and here is some code”. You give it a directi

Hi. Comment reader here. Regardless whether you are right or not you’re coming across as obstinate. It might do you well to eat some humble pie.

I have both the Airthings Wave+ and the AirGradient Pro. I like them both. The Wave+ can connect to Home Assistant just fine with Bluetooth so there’s no worry about “owning” the data etc. I didn’t care for the initial software that came wi
