Isn't that potentially a $15k detection method?

That's always been my take. The first 75% of most of his books are among my favorite recent books. I've never enjoyed an ending.

I think the second half of your comment argues against the first. You're right that people are unwilling to make the basic changes that are obviously needed. But we only know preci…

If there is a potion of the population that is "sitting on the fence about climate change", it is highly unlikely that they "can be convinced by a clear and well founded explanatio…

I assume he means at the device level.

Love that. I'm going to use this example for years.

Some of us are really just that cynical.

Same. I avoided reading up on it too deeply, because it seemed to be much bigger than I was expecting, and I didn't believe they'd get something that big through congressional grid…

And weirdly, their whole 'hurry and make a clone of this popular app' industry may be uniquely suited to creating new ways to interface with developing AI tools

Bud light accounted for over 9% of Americas domestic beer sales last year.

That just puts workers' retirement funds on the open market, to be abused by any friend of their fund manager.

I've experienced this a lot myself. It's weird. I used to be considered a Digital Native. Now I feel like an outsider on the internet.

I'd add my anecdote to that assessment: I'm a Sysadmin with some networking certs, and the linkedin messages have started coming in more frequently, and stating (quite good) salari…

I guess we finally know why Dell spun them off.

I think you are making a mistake trying to assess what "country X 'wants'". It only takes one person to decide to launch a missile. And very few to execute on that decision. And wh…

Sounds like we need a corporate death penalty.

Yeah, I finally got all of my medications dialed in, so I am a ninja at concentration. And my Elo in chess has skyrocketed, while my job performance has stayed flat.

"I don't know anything about this, but I assume that the truth aligns with my personal beliefs" Cool.

I'm generally of the opinion that the tradition of never discussing salary is entirely pushed by management to prevent underpaid workers from asking for more. If nobody knows how m…

Another potential benefit of this sort of early detection would be the ability to more effectively test interventions that might have little effect on more advanced cancers. That c…

It probably depends on what is causing the false positive. If it is just some variance in the test, then multiple testings could help (And the test could probably be improved to re…

They did say 'somewhat' Obviously not everybody has that kind of extra money, but a fairly large portion of this sites user base is likely to be comprised of tech professionals wit…

I definitely want to stay on the technical side, though management is my fall-back. I guess moving into Dev role isn't exactly what I'm looking for. Mainly, I want to move into a s…

I should note that I work at a non-technical company, and my exposure to new technologies is essentially non-existent. Which is why I am looking for a change. Most of my experience…
