Oh yes. Much worse. Those times it was an intellectual resistance. This time it is visceral. We are seething angry.

Well, it is not software developers that won't be needed anymore. It is large corporations. If a small team of developers can make huge projects. There is no reason for them to wor…

With the advent of generative AI the painting has been on the wall for some time. Using it in Photoshop is simply so good that it is a necessity by now. Affinity are not a large en…

That is hardly correct. A genetic disposition to mate with the opposite sex would be a very strong force for reproduction. In other words: Genes that make you have sex with the opp…

"The average British Columbian planter plants 1 600 trees per day,[5] but it is not uncommon for experienced planters to plant up to 4,000 trees per day" https://www.wikipedia.org/…

I looked it up. It takes about 15 trees to absorb 1 tonne of CO2. Which is used for a 10.000 km flight.

I remember several cases back from the eighties where US intelligence pilfered European trade secrets.

I remember buying a 1GB hd for 14.000 USD for editing audio. Luckily it was not my money. Sometimes in the early nineties.

There is some debate about this. Cells live for about 7 years, so after that the fat cells should also dissapear. Autophagy might also recycle empty fat cells.

There is no documentation that seed oils are especially unhealthy. They do however consist mainly of omega 6 fatty acids, and our body needs about 50/50 omega 6 and 3 in the diet. …

It is man made. Like any other law. Not because it is perfect or factually right, but because it works, and works well. That is good enough for me.

Yes, but it is all just speculation. And when you compare it to how poorly our bodies handles running now I would say it is a weak argument. Also the "we can run the prey tired" ar…

But nature is hardly better for running than pavement. Stones, grass, roots, mud etc. There are a lot more ways to get injuries in nature than on a gravel path.

I find it interresting that no one questions the "we are born to run" claim. I have seen very little evidence for that. We are able to run, but that does not mean that running is a…

I suddenly smelled smoke one morning and could not figure out where it came frome. Turned out it was a paper napkin i had left in one of those bowls on my kitchen table. And the su…

As a content creator a small monthly fee can be better. Otherwise you risk everything to turn into a "gifrecipe" format. Monthly income can make it possible to make more in depth c…

But then debt and better money management and institutes has created the most peaceful and less violent societies in the world. In "original" societies it is not abnormal for 50% o…

I wish people would learn new languages by writing new versions of winamp. That would be great.

The meter and seat sensors are there to avoid tax evasion. Not to avoid cheating.

Using deepmind for generating color palettes is somewhat of an overkill. It is really not that hard a problem. It is very easy to programatically generate several color palettes fr…

Confirmation bias does not exclude being correct. I have the same experience with a family member having gluten intolerance. We have experimented with diet. On gluten. Off gluten. …
