interesting, how come?
- Comment on Fresh dystopian hell from Samsung fridges with ads. 1 day ago:
I’m reading a book where they mention “Ambience” systems… basically nanobots floating in the air everywhere so you can just ask something and literally hear voices with the answer or suddenly see images floating in front of your face.
Imagine that tech in this stupid timeline…

- Comment on So now that it's that time of year again in the US, what are some tips and tricks for dealing with that one relative who goes on about the same bullshit for hours and won't shut the fuck up? 1 week ago:
why do you want those people in your life even if they are relatives?
If they can’t take a “sorry uncle Bob, but I disagree with everything you think of X. Why don’t we just avoid this and enjoy dinner”, then they are too emotionally immature/toxic to have in your life

- Comment on Health Secretary Kennedy says there's 'not sufficient' proof to show Tylenol causes autism 5 weeks ago:
He is changing his tune now that lawsuits started flying
They outright came out saying Tylenol during pregnancy causes autism a few weeks back… now they acknowledge they are full of shit but added a “suggest” to save some face.
Again, the gist of this news is that he is backtracking. To expect they will quote everything he said in the headline is nonsense (specially when it literally is nonsense), otherwise you’d expect the headline to contain the entire article
- Comment on Health Secretary Kennedy says there's 'not sufficient' proof to show Tylenol causes autism 5 weeks ago:
yes but they have provided no such “studies” to “suggest” this link… it is literally the opinion, without ANY SUBSTANCE, of a guy who chooses to swim in black water
- Comment on Health Secretary Kennedy says there's 'not sufficient' proof to show Tylenol causes autism 5 weeks ago:
What “studies”? you are now literally making things up and pretending this is less clickbait?
A month later, Trump and Kennedy, neither of whom are doctors, held a press conference in September to specifically warn pregnant women against taking the medication without citing any scientific evidence.
Even the FDA, under these absolute morons, cannot come up with anything to throw at Acetaminophen
“The FDA is responding to prior clinical and laboratory studies that suggest a potential association between acetaminophen use during pregnancy and adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes,” the agency said in its announcement. "FDA also recognizes that there are contrary studies showing no association and that there can be risks for untreated fever in pregnancy, both for the mother and fetus. "
- Comment on Health Secretary Kennedy says there's 'not sufficient' proof to show Tylenol causes autism 5 weeks ago:
what part?
how would you have worded the headline to avoid what you call clickbait?
- Comment on Health Secretary Kennedy says there's 'not sufficient' proof to show Tylenol causes autism 5 weeks ago:
that not clickbait, it’s calle paraphrasing
can’t put the entire paraghaph as a headline
- Comment on Amazon cuts 14,000 jobs, blames AI 5 weeks ago:
Galetti also espoused the benefits of AI in her message to employees, and claimed the oft-criticized technology is already allowing companies like Amazon to “innovate much faster than ever before.” She suggested it’s important for the company to reduce its headcount in order to take advantage of the perceived opportunity presented by the tech.
This screams of, we need to cut heads so we can pretend to be innovating with AI somehow Most likely, they are just hiding all the sunken AI investment that has returned nothing in terms of revenue

- Comment on US government uses Halo images in a call to 'destroy' immigration, Microsoft declines to comment 5 weeks ago:
long past the point of continuing to extend the courtesy they constantly deny everyone else
- Comment on US government uses Halo images in a call to 'destroy' immigration, Microsoft declines to comment 5 weeks ago:
Not almost, it is exactly that
Microsoft could have issued a note to the tone of “we were not consulted” but their vaporware spine did not amount to even that little
- Comment on US government uses Halo images in a call to 'destroy' immigration, Microsoft declines to comment 5 weeks ago:
so if you want to be a pedophile, senile, racist with a full diaper, play Halo… got it Microsoft

- Comment on Mary E. Brunkow, one of this year's Nobel Prize winners in Medicine, has only 34 published papers and an H-index of 21. 1 month ago:
same… I couldn’t care less about titles or office politics… I just want some challenging work to do and a path to work-life balance
- Comment on Mary E. Brunkow, one of this year's Nobel Prize winners in Medicine, has only 34 published papers and an H-index of 21. 1 month ago:
The idea is that if you focus on the work, all of that would/should follow…
I have read a few anecdotes from scholars basically confirming this: they were doing “everything right” and getting nowhere but the moment they decided to just do the work that makes them happy, all the titles and positions followed.
I believe Patricia Ryan Madson is one such story although not in a scientific branch. IIRC, she could not get permanent positions in any university even though she had a “perfect resume” but then decided to follow her passion and her career just took off.
I know this is idealistic, but I still wish this were how the world works
- Comment on Slightly Unfair 1 month ago:
That’s really more like a 15 year window because I remember the 90’s and early 00’s and by today’s standards, people were racist as shit and it was considered acceptable.
Well, the Mango Mussolini nightmare started 10 years ago or so… so not too far off
- Comment on Slightly Unfair 1 month ago:
Dude, the difference is the scale… back then they could hint at it, if they overdid it, that was a career ending mistake
Now all safeties are off… they literally compete to see who says they worst racist shit
- Comment on Slightly Unfair 1 month ago:
Oh yes… when racist pieces of shit noticed it was OK to air their BS and wear it proudly after Republicans send the message that this is OK now… they feed off each other
