Like most efforts to unmaks satoshi, the whole piece is a long exercise in confirmation bias. He pours over posts to find specific shared writing tics, then feeds those specific ti…

True, but I would say a large fraction of foreign nationals who do PhDs in the US were undergrad educated at least partially in the US.

I assume the underpaid labor they were talking about was the PhD.

The US could retain a lot of that talent if it put the same level of funding into science that China is, and remained welcoming to foreign nationals. The US has been brain-draining…

"Using new data which tracks US-trained STEM PhDs through 2024, we show that despite foreign nationals comprising nearly 50% of trainees, only 10% leave the US within five years of…

Again, different question. We know, fundamentally, how TMS causes stimulation/suppression of neural activity, and it does not require magnetoreception. Look at it this way: we don'…

I think you're conflating one question with another. The "why" in question is why altering neural activity in that way results in clinical effects. It is not the "why" TMS alters n…

You know the mechanism of TMS is not mysterious. It requires no magnetoreception or "stochastic resonance". It is simply inducing electrical currents to modulate neural activity. I…

I don't want to be mean but this honestly reads like an AI-fueled delusion.

Using it in a specialized subfield of neuroscience, Gemini 3 w/ thinking is a huge leap forward in terms of knowledge and intelligence (with minimal hallucinations). I take it that…

Exactly my experience as well. Started out loving it but it almost moves too fast - building in functionality that i might want eventually but isn't yet appropriate for where the p…

Exactly what i thought of as well. That's what i always used to use.

If you have an electric hand mixer, that also works. Just put a single beater attachment in and it fits in pretty much any jar!

My hack is an electric hand mixer with only one beater attachment in. fits easily into any pb jar, homogenizes in under a minute.

Neat idea! However one issue with everyone using a digital tracker is that you can't then easily see what other player resource stockpiles and production levels are. Perhaps at the…

Regulations vary by state, but it is not in general illegal to sell a used mattress.

Do you mean flipping the magnet over? If you scroll down he did that.

Ah that makes sense. Thanks!

In this version, in figure 6a and b the new log scale of the IV curve looks quite linear and increasing in the range of 150 to 250 mA. I thought that it should be flat if it was a …

This looks really cool! It could be useful to be able to whitelist some sites without the 4 degree connection. For example, if i wanted to include large networks like reddit, githu…

Does SD have to recreate the entire image for it to violate copyright? As a thought experiment, imagine a variant of something like SD was used for music generation rather than ima…

I agree, it is miraculous. the fact that dna is ultimately storing all the info for specifying neural circuits that robustly support such complex innate behaviors (often with very …

I guess it depends on how accurately you're thinking about those functions being approximated. Neurons have a natural nonlinearity to their input-output (transfer) function, most o…

Also the nonlinearity only needs to be differentiable because ANNs are trained with gradient descent. With other more biologically plausible learning mechanisms, this might matter …

I am also not en expert in this area, but I agree with this assessment. This looks like classic anomaly hunting rather than careful science, but I would love to be proved wrong.
