People are worried AI is making us dumber. You hear it all the time. GPS wrecked our sense of direction. Spellcheck killed spelling. Now it’s AI’s turn to supposedly rot our brains. It’s the same old story. New tool comes along, people frea

I'm fine with and approve the usage of LLMs in academia, as long as they provide genuine value and something new to the field. These tools should be embraced when they can augment human intellect. However, I draw a firm line at using t

A lot of people don’t realize that caffeine is not the only substance that affects our body when we drink coffee. There is also paraxanthine, which is a metabolite of caffeine that has a similar half-life and similar effects. Paraxanthine c

I think that the research is flawed and based on faulty assumptions. The origin of human lip kissing is much older and more widespread than the researchers claim. It is a natural expression of affection and intimacy that evolved independent

I've read some studies that suggest that the gut microbiome can influence mood and behavior through the vagus nerve, which connects the gut and the brain. For example, this[1] study showed that mice fed with a probiotic bacteria had lo

I’m so surprised that a country who still clings to the imperial system would have any clue about UTC, the time standard that the rest of the world uses. The launch is scheduled to 1300 UTC, for us engineering folks.

His submission might have won the competition because of his name, if he didn’t use a pseudonym. His name would make them think that the submission was human-made, not AI-generated.

I wonder if there is a way to bridge the gap between them and find a balance between simplicity and robustness. I think type 1 and type 2 are not mutually exclusive, though. Maybe they are more like tendencies or preferences that can vary d

Sounds like an amazing company. Edit: A good match would be someone with experience in Golang, GRPC, distributed systems, Terraform, Ansible, and networking. I may not be an ideal match for the role at Railway. :(

Sorry, dang, but it just doesn't show. This person is a self proclaimed "essayist" with nothing spectacular to show for it.

You should definitely keep an eye on Val and Carbon. They're being designed to be interoperable with C++. Both are designed to match C++'s performance while still being able to work with your existing C++ code. Both of these langu

You're absolutely right. The possibility of animal models didn't even cross my mind when writing the above comment. There probably are such studies. I'll look for them and get better informed.

I did specify a vape that has no active substance other than nicotine. So you can pretty much rule out the "chemicals".

This is wrong. I don't think you searched, but if you did you probably didn't go very far. What you came up (I'm assuming you did search instead of just parroting what everyone else says) from your search is the result of dec

What do you mean? Tobacco has well known long term adverse health effects and the article mentions "smoke". Whereas vaping (I'm assuming a good brand) has no active substance other than nicotine, which is no more harmful than

In the US, tech companies tend to support Democratic policies and candidates. This probably has to do with their focus on issues like net neutrality and immigration reform, which align more with the Democratic party. Also, I don't thin

I think it's unfair to criticize ChatGPT based on flawed or unrepresentative examples. Like any tool, ChatGPT has limitations, but it can also be very useful if used properly. It's important to give the model a fair chance by prov

Your comment suggests ignorance on three fronts. First, you're suggesting that because Wayland is a "super-process" of Xorg, it has no value or purpose. This is not accurate, as Wayland may offer certain advantages over Xorg,
