    I have an outstanding hypothesis that suggests that even if the opoid epidemic went totally away tomorrow, this is not the steepest increase, and the increase will continue for the…

    This clearly has outliers from fantastically ancient civilizations. Give it a qqnorm and you would see. The median age is much more interesting than the mean, and more relevant for…

    I wonder about auto-correlation and repeated sequences of runs. If it isn't totally random, then it is partly not random. What is the nature of the non-randomness?

    The f*ed up part is the impact on the fetus. The dosage level before harm or death for kids is 10x smaller than for adults. For babies in the womb it is way smaller than that. Thes…

    Using a wavelength transformation to send this through the non-absorption windows means more energy hits the ground and you aren't hacking terrestrial albedo in a bad way. That glo…

    I was pushing this a decade ago. If you have "fusion in a bottle" and don't want to share, this is a decent way to make it harder to steal/damage/use-for-terrorism. Also, giant bea…

    this is good that they are there. It means that the radioactive material can be sequestered. It means that the radioactive material can be inventoried, and escapee content determin…

    There is a lagged autoregressive technique used in forensic analysis that allows 3d reconstruction using 1d (mic) sound. A CNN should be able to back that out too, and do other thi…

    Google built things that circumvent it. I love how commercials "follow you around". If I search for diamond rings in a browser on one computer, they suddenly materialize everywhere…

    You know, there are illegal cell phones in prisons. If the prison folks have the ability to determine whose voice is speaking, then they can related an outgoing cell signal at the …

    And now they are superhuman with regards to "Fog of war"! A truly crushing next step would be to make "World in Flames" into a computer game, and have Alpha-Star-Zero, which is com…

    Duh! It is 1/3 the cost (bullshit aside) for someone from a culture of hunger, hard work, desperation, and oppression. That makes them easy to work very hard, unlikely for them to …

    Why hell do we need something that is 10x stronger than fentanyl or 1000x stronger than herion??? Is there nothing in the world that will make the FDA stop killing people? Opoids k…

    I feel that they steal the universe from me by making new prescriptions that presume normal distribution in use-case, and because the new prescription mandates new glasses. I have …

    This sounds like an amazing thing! Anyone serious does their work reproducibly. This shouldn't add more than a little bit about storage on devices and paper, in terms of costs.

    They are lying. The only winning strategy is if the FBI does investigate, and if there is an actual penalty. Nothing less will impact the long term behavior of AT&T or any other ce…

    Think about what you just said, in context of why one side is light and one is dark. Where does the light come from?

    Also worth saying... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMjPqr1s-cg Are we now, this moment, coming to 5:15-5:34? I suspect, and hope, that the eulogist was pointing this toward ARPA …

    Maybe the things I sent to Apple, so they could start cutting into YouTube should also be sent to Netflix? :D

    Given the prevalence of "grass" in national forests, I suspect it is the kind that has only been legalized at a state level. If the folks growing the "grass" find out they can be d…

    I don't know that the distrust in similarity between images of noise is unwarranted. They are pseudo-random, not purely random. Each is not independent, but is a pile of sequential…
