There were 5882 cases of CJD between 2007 and 2020 in the United States (not specific to CWD though). Nonetheless, when I learned of that tally a few weeks ago I didn't expect the …

I have no doubt that this "feature" is a backroom deal worth millions because OpenAI is running out of public internet data with which to improve its models. (See this paper from r…

Was the L40S intended to be a workaround for the export restrictions on the H100, or did Nvidia always plan to create the L40S? https://fortune.com/2023/11/01/nvidia-shares-fall-re…

This video is incredibly long, dull, and lacking in any technical depth (as new product releases often are) but I watched Zuckerberg's keynote speech - the 45 minute-long one - and…

See my comment elsewhere on this post. Greg Brockman, head of strategic initiatives at OpenAI, was talking at a round table discussion in Korea a few weeks ago about how they had t…

Check out this post from a round table dialogue with Greg Brockman from OpenAI. The GPT models that were in existence / in use in early 2023 were not the performance-degraded quant…

A while back I was reading up on private equity as an 'industry' after a prior employer was bought up by PE, carved into bits, with each 'chunk' being sold off to the highest bidde…

I used to use this hosts file some years ago: https://someonewhocares.org/hosts/ Forgot about it for a few years, but this post jogged my memory. We currently use a PiHole for hous…

Has anyone ever looked into if pinball can be used in the same way that Tetris can for PTSD? Several friends with (C)PTSD love to play pinball, so I wondered if the research suppor…

This page is pretty jank-tastic but it has some charts on it in addition to serving up H1B lottery numbers, the # of days in which the lottery cap was reached, etc. Has some intere…

IMO, as someone who has (briefly) worked in real estate tech the United States NEEDS TO pass legislation similar to what Canada has passed regarding the ownership of homes by non-C…

There's a pretty informative video on PFAS in Germany; at the end of the video there's a guy in the US (southeast I think) who is located about five miles away from a PFAS plant wh…

It's not a book but I really like the Elements of AI two-part course series that the University of Helskini provided (financial) support for: the two courses in the Elements of AI …

Does that lower the seizure threshold at all? (I've had docs get on my case about bupropion + mild other medication that can in theory impact the seizure threshold) But I'd be inte…

Delysm is Dextromethorphan Polistirex which is a time-release form of DXM. I don't think it lets you get the same peaks / thresholds as 'instant release' dextromethorphan. Back in …

Oh, yeah! The 'shared recipe' feature - or even just 'Let me easily export ALL of my recipes' (for my own records or to share with a spouse or someone else that I'm cooking/prepari…

I've found it to be pretty unimaginative, yes! :) It often suggests organ meats to me or omelettes with dark leafy greens. You know how there's the checkbox to exclude "My recipes"…

This seems like Cronometer? I've been using Cronometer for a decade plus. It was built for folks who were following the CRON way of eating: Caloric Restriction Optimum Nutrition. S…

For folks who have already read the (great) CitizenLab report but would like more research-based literature into TikTok and/or Douyin: - Analyzing TikTok from a Digital Forensics P…

I was curious as to what the 'community AI' research org's stances on distributed training of deep neural nets were so some weeks ago I stumbled upon Eleuther AI's FAQ page which w…
