- Comment on WiFi signals can measure heart rate—no wearables needed 2 days ago:
Cool tech but I question it’s usefulness. They focus on clinical in their language but anybody who’s on telemetry orders needs waveforms not beats per minute. I care if they’re suddenly in afib, not that they’re a little tachy after getting up to go to the bathroom.

Plutonium. A uranium critical mass would be much much bigger and you wouldn’t be able to adjust it with screwdrivers.

Functional in what way. You’ll still be quite lucid well into the middle stage where you can’t work. It ain’t like it’s direct ticket from work to a locked memory care unit. You might even find life fulfilling along the way that your current anxieties can’t see.

- Comment on A bike rider in Cheshire says people riding on the county’s roads are “fair game for crazy drivers” after police reject video evidence of dangerous driving due to a lack of witnesses 2 weeks ago:
Witnesses need to introduce the evidence as to where they got it, where it was recorded, and how it was recorded or it’s hearsay. That said, the cops only want to be the sole depondent for citation level crimes usually so they’ve decided they don’t want to do the legwork of getting the person who recorded it to be the witness.
- Comment on Imagine there was a society in which blue eyed people are referred to with blee/bler pronouns, and green eyed people are referred to with glee/gler pronouns... 2 weeks ago:
Early Proto Indo European genders were if things had agency/was animate/acted on the world or not. Was pretty much him and it. A car would be a him because it moves around. Same with a river or a weapon. A rock would be an it. A rolling boulder though becomes outside context, since now he’s an animate rock that has enough agency to kill you. You get enough of these inconsistencies and the language just loses the original plot and you just have to memorize it points to Germanic and romance languages
- Comment on What would be ancient ways to properly store vitamin C? 3 weeks ago:
Drying can work to a degree if it’s cold, but it really depends on how you dry it since vitamin c is water soluble. Anything heat dried is out. And modern sauerkraut is pasturized so that’s pretty useless for vitamin C. Finally canned preserves are canned under high heat. These industrial processes are a major reason why scurvy was so hard to treat at the beginning of the industrial revolution. Nobody could figure it out because they kept heat treating potential solutions.

Vitamin C is heat sensitive but pickling is fine and a good reason why pickled cabbage is popular in places with cold winter. Beyond that, it’s straight up foraging for greens and berries. Plenty of leafy greens allowed enough vitamin c to stave off scurvy.

- Comment on Study: Social media probably can’t be fixed 3 weeks ago:
Pre print journalism fucking bugs me because the journalists themselves can’t actually judge if anything is worth actually discussing so they just look for click bait shit.
This methodology to discover what interventions do in human environments seems particularly deranged to me though:
We address this question using a novel method – generative social simulation – that embeds Large Language Models within Agent-Based Models to create socially rich synthetic platforms.
LLM agents trained on social media dysfunction recreate it unfailingly. No shit.

Cardinal getting his call right is an existential issue regarding reproductive fitness. Even if he could comprehend judging terminal internetites he wouldn’t place it as significant.

I don’t really know how I feel to see charting at day cares. I guess it does solve a liability need just as much as charting in nursing homes and hospitals do. But we’re not usually even this detailed.

- Comment on The World Will Enter a 15-Year AI Dystopia in 2027, Former Google Exec Says 3 weeks ago:
AI is going to be a good scapegoat as to why the current asset focused economy crashes when nobody can afford to buy the assets because they’ve exploited themselves to oblivion. We’re already going into a complete structural breakdown because the structure itself is already deranged. Trying to extrapolate how AI is going to decouple productive value further in a system where assets already are skyrocketing and wages are stagnant is foolish in my opinion. It’s already decoupled and barreling down the track with no brakes. It’s like blaming air BnBs for housing prices. Stupid and reductive.

Yeah, all we got is man made tragedy of the commons disasters where the data centers deplete not only the water for humans, but the water for the data centers. Poof, no more data.

Why the hell are they trying to build data centers in the fucking Sonoran Desert anyway.
- Comment on California slave labor: Jailed pre-trial detainees work for private firm—for nothing 4 weeks ago:
I don’t get it, how is the California supreme Court justifying not paying pre trial labor. The text of the amendment is clear and their state laws mean dick to it:
except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted

You can but then you need to thaw it to get it ready, which defeats the purpose in many operations.

If they’re making actual yeast dough balls you can’t make that to order. You need to prep them and put them in the fridge and if the proof time is too long then they go in the dumpster. If they were hoping for a rush and didn’t get it for whatever reason that could be a lot of dough balls
