AI does not have a reptilian and mammalian brain underneath it's AI brain as we have underneath our brains. All that wiring is an artifact of our evolution and primitive survival and not how pre-training works nor an essential charact

The inverse of this study, in which a nutrient that helps cells grow, including cancer cells, is the cause of cancer is that every substance they find that kills cells, but is slightly more likely to kill cancer cells than regular cells is

You didn't mention that you can ban crackheads and the criminally insane from riding the Uber bus if they assault people, shoot up drugs in front of people, smoke crack or meth on the bus or start screaming uncontrollably. Huge in Cal

Pffft... loans to buy burritos? Wake me up when I can make a burrito and take out a burrito equity loan using it as collateral. I will gladly start making burritos.

This reminds me of the semantic web. It ultimately didn't work because people decided the most useful thing to do with it was lie about and spam with their metadata in order to better SEO rank. Right now we're in the idealistic

The best outcome for the current China/U.S conflict is lots of peaceful competition that forces each society to innovate.

In San Francisco they did a 1 mile extension of the subway and it cost 1 billion dollars. That's 10x what it would cost in any other major city anywhere in the world, but a whole bunch of middle management surplus elites found a way t

Deepseek is super bad at personal advice. I can tell it was trained on an oddly stodgy data set. It gives advice that would suit a hyper conservative world view. Like IBM 1950s middle management training course level advice. Gemma is by

>It is also notable that Chinese competitiveness has only increased as they have engaged in decades of state economic planning and market barriers. Meanwhile in California, the high-speed rail project is not going so well. There's

A. G. Streng would probably have been forgotten about like so many if he hadn't been such a risk taking experimental chemist. Now someone's probably going to make a movie or comic book about him.

There was some guy on reddit 10 years ago who got stem cell injections in China and was able to walk after being paralyzed and posted about it. Almost everyone on the thread gaslighted him that he must have never actually been paralyzed or

This is why methylene blue has been so successful in Alzheimer's research. It's antimicrobial and gets into the brain easily.

Russia and Germany signed the non-aggression pact.

Not to rain on the Apple parade, but cloud video editing with the models running on H100s that can edit videos based on prompts is going to be vastly more productive than anything running locally. This will be useful for local development

We allied with Stalin in world war III, now that's evil. Putin will be a good ally against China, who is an actual threat to the United States.

The difference is Israel's enemies are easy to defeat. Russia, not so much. Europe made the same mistake as in world war II. Believing their own propaganda and convincing themselves that Russia would be easy to defeat. Trump talks

They are building hundreds of naval destroyers and multiple aircraft carriers to invade a tiny island? Nope. The CCP is prepping to be the world hegemon and take over the world with drone swarms and bioweapons. The Taiwan game is like the &

The weirdest part about Europeans is they were totally cool with the U.S assisting im sabotaging the NordStream pipeline. They accept U.S imperialism whole heartedly and now that we're withdrawing from running an empire they're

They are hostile to outsiders because they have no immunity to modern diseases and in the past, each time someone tried to contact them a lot of them died.

Make a brand new word then. Even if you want to add all these layers to societal interaction we can call people who want a different identity "Gender Identified Woman." Don't confuse the meaning of the existing word and prete

It is hilariously bad at writing erotica when I've used jailbreaks on it. It's knowledge is the equivalent of a 1980s college kid with no access to pornography who watched an R rated movie once.

As an oldtimer, when Redhat 9 came out at the same time as Windows 2000, Windows 2000 was ridiculously far ahead. Many engineers switched back to Linux from Windows for a while.

As the token Trump supporter on HN, let me give you what I think's going on. I think they are doing an ideological purge. They want to get rid of anyone promoting transgender science. I think RJK JR. wants to get rid of anyone he thin

I think that China is working to control left-wing activism in the U.S and TikTok is the perfect trojan horse to split the Democratic party and elevate their bribed proxies. I'd rather not go into how they're doing it, but certai
