This will be very useful if they can find a way to make it without something that costs $12,000 per kg.

There's evidence creatine may raise DHT levels, and DHT causes hair thinning: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19741313/

Our long term plan is for Jesus to come back and fix everything. I wish I was joking...

If the photography was mediocre, nobody would accuse it of being AI, but because it's the flawless photography of a true professional, suddenly it's highly suspect.

I notice the article, the paper, and the "plain language" summary of the paper don't mention the common term for this phenomenon, St Elmo's fire.

I was playing around with this recently, but the problem I encountered is that most AI analysis techniques like stem separation aren't built to work in real-time.

Yeah, that seems like an odd thing to say. It's like they're setting themselves up for a "no true Scotsman" argument. Anybody who disagrees with their decisions isn't a "true belie…

I get what you're saying, but I disagree that LLMs should be inserting ads into git commits. By default, the LLM is credited with authorship anyway, and I assume the user can easil…

You're conflating two different things. When an LLM writes a commit, it should take credit. I see nothing wrong with it adding: > Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 noreply@anthropic.…

It was largely replaced with it's molecular analog, BPS. Just like BPA, BPS is an endocrine disruptor. The idea that it's less harmful than BPA is mostly due to lack of research.

Everyone's being diplomatic, including most of the HN comments. This seems to be the simplest compromise, and allows OpenTTD to continue existing without too many problems from Ata…

I'm confused, you think I'm saying he's breaking guidelines? I should have been more clear, but I was trying to skirt the guidelines. I'm sure that astroturfing happens on HN, and …

> I've seen no one working on this, and in fact most people on HN seem to be working on ways to further exacerbate this problem. It's against the HN guidelines to insinuate that as…

If I boycott a company, am I legally responsible for any lost profit that happens as a result?

Calling it a "mystery" gets suckers like me to click the link.

If it's not clear already, I'm not a lawyer and I'm not using strict legal definitions.

Yep, that's the exact "loophole" I mentioned in my original comment! The government can now partner with private businesses to effectively bypass the Fourth Amendment.

You seem to be playing dumb here. You realize us "normal people" believe the Bill of Rights is to protect us from the government, and the 4th means the government doesn't get to sp…

You're an attorney and you're asking me why the government spying on everyone is a clear violation of the 4th Amendment?

It's a clear violation of the 4th Amendment, but the government acts like they've found a "loophole" because it's private businesses doing the spying.

This doesn't seem very fair, you speak as if you're being objective, then lean heavy into the FUD. Even if you were correct, and "truth" is essentially dead, that still doesn't cal…

Personally, I take a break from AI and write the code myself at least a few times each day. It keeps one intellectually honest about whether or not you really understand what's goi…
