Quite an astonishing amount of quotes -- I counted Heidegger, Nietzsche, Murdoch, the Bible, and Plato as key players -- to contribute very little of substance. It feels like the same kind of hand-wringing that you might have read about the

Youtube has already accounted for this by using a separate endpoint to count watch stats. See the recent articles about view counts being down attributed to people using adblockers. Even if they hadn't done that, you can craft millions

Not anti-vax by any means, but it's not too conclusive to use past mutation rate here because the presence of a vaccine targeting successful strains introduces a strong evolutionary pressure for the more rapid emergence of novel strain

Bowls specifically are worse than large, filtered, rectangular aquariums because they're typically too small (causing stress), unfiltered (resulting in waste buildup which causes stress), round (which can act as a lens if the bowl is s

The artice links to the paper which discusses the issue. The paper identifies two problems: a biased swapping algorithm, and a PRNG with easy-to-guess state. For the first problem, a very simple "for each card, pick a number between 1

Although this is indeed a worrying statement, it seems true to me. Most users of sqlite control the SQL they use. The problem I would expect from using a database document interchange format is that a maliciously crafted database could re

The original comment, and your initial response, talked about advertising. The examples you give, and this response in general, are marketing. They are very different, and marketing is much broader.

Except that you also learnt about 10 concerts you didn't want to go to, 10 sales you don't care about, etc. And it's not even (necessarily) 10 good concerts or sales, it's just the ones that someone managed to thrust in

Weird. I bought the first iPad and loved the big keyboard. I was much faster using it than I was on a phone. Particularly with the magnetic case, I found I could set it up like a physical keyboard and take notes in lectures, but unlike most

The source includes a direct comment from the secretary of state that Category 1 of the OSA is about regulating sites with a significant influence over public discourse. Therefore it makes perfect sense to say that the OSA is at least in pa

Could you provide a source for your statements? The article says that they don’t have access to the chat logs, and the quotes from the patient don’t suggest that chatgpt did not tell him to ingest bromide.

Not that I think vaccines are in any way harmful, but your own link goes on to point out that less than 1% of ingested aluminium ends up in the blood so just quoting the numbers like that doesn't add much.

The point of anubis is to make scraping unprofitable by forcing bots to solve a sha256-based proof-of-work captcha, so another point of view is that the explicit denylist is actually saving those bot authors time and/or money.

The stats are not hard to look up, but they do seem somewhat hard to gather. The site you linked doesn't reference a study, but I imagine that asking a bunch of people if they pulled out "perfectly", even for quite stringent
