That's crazy. Herpes can't be cured, so the implication of those ads can only be to "hide" the infection. Additionally, those antivirals aren't effective at preventing outbreaks un…

Looking at global population stats, you can clearly see where germ theory and vaccines entered human civilization. All this "natural something" and antivax movement certainly is th…

Lol, you are both right: - It's not commonly transmitted sexually - It can definitely be transmitted sexually https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepatitis_C#Sexual_intercourse

> HPV 2 and Herpes are rather common Seems like both HSV-1 and HSV-2 seroprevalences are actually rather low in the Netherlands. As for STI testing: Serological testing is pretty m…

I think, if you scale it up a bit and adjust the weight for increased friction losses, you may be able to do it considering available materials, but the required knowledge would be…

Well, let that drop on your feet. Or have those fat rubber bands slap you in the face... The small pinch of powder in a cartridge got the same punch. It's not a nuclear bomb obviou…

That's fine, if it doesn't mean throwing your money or taxes at them. Otherwise a democracy eroding social impact will become a self-fulfilling prophecy, regardless of tech viabili…

Just another scare to gain funding, "because of the implication", overstating their technological impact, conflating scifi with reality. Seems like they aim at overreacting governm…

That device is so much more scary! Both really demonstrate the ridiculous amount of energy stored in a pinch of gun powder. And I presume gun powder is quite inefficient at driving…

I think the only real advantage of this, compared to gas driven projectiles, is the lack of need for gas sealing and explosion resistance of the projectile. The projectile is accel…

Don't know about the US, but isn't it "9to5" there too? Is there much "culture" before 9? I can say in Germany "9to..." is also applying to cafes, supermarkets, ... pretty much not…

For me the difference is anaerobic vs aerobic exercise. I can only go for a run first thing in the morning. Although, that's more about the empty stomach (and outdoor temperatures …

Good luck getting those devs. Between the fallout of covid and AI in education, there is likely half an upcoming generation poorly educated and comparatively less qualified. Right …

Right, in winter there is less sun. However, there still is some sunlight and in winter you also still got wind energy. Maybe more wind, especially off-shore. Not to mention geothe…

Not to mention ammonia isn't the friendliest of chemicals and doesn't exactly beg for decentralized logistics. I think, projects like these grew out of dunkelflaute moral panic reg…

The whole article is trash. Every sentence its own paragraph . Every second word bold . Who writes like that? Is this some kind of stupid SEO/AI crawler optimization?

You are right, Blender doesn't just serve one industry. I had the movie industry in mind, because it demands the largest set of Blender's features. I believe Maya still has/had the…

Thanks for the Apple pay hint. That was just what I needed to get me over the mental threshold. It's been literally two clicks.

It's not just incredibly powerful software, it's also incredibly fun and intuitive to use (once the UI has clicked with you). There are still some areas where commercial competitor…

I kinda can't get over the fact processed data can conversationally convince these LLMs to break security boundaries. Like, those malicious prompts are not illustrative analogies, …

Plenty and mo. Who are we, if not Partanguagoos?

Yeah, I am rooting for Poland, but it's simply not a shining example of democratic integrity. > Poland has the EU as democratic layer but US with Trump doesnt have it. I mean, let'…

Buddy, I am just on HN and FetLife. Maybe get rid of your own delusions before judging strangers on their imagined social media bias. > Most AfD members share your sentiment. Maybe…

Merkel era was "incompetence"/inaction, Merz is pure malice. Remember when he did the McDonalds ad during his campaign and then the first thing after being elected was the gastrono…

I think especially in the US it presents as fascism, and the AfD clearly models itself to their image, but fundamentally I think it's globally rather an anti-democratic, social-dar…
