    AI models are just complex mathematical functions/software and they do not have the capability to access, modify, or control computer systems or networks. There are technical bound…

    Mouthwash kills the good bacteria as well. Better off using chips gum to stimulate natural saliva which helps in reducing bad bacteria.

    I like to think of a virus like code. It’s nothing more than a series of instructions in a file that, when executed (by the cell), does something. Is code complex enough to be call…

    This is great. How is "disputed" calculated? (hopefully not news babble but another paper disputing it?)

    Step 1. VD3 blood test is a must to determine whether one is deficient. If you work indoors all day there is a high chance you are deficient. Your GP can help you boost it up using…

    A lot of folks aren’t open to change and see change and experiments as frightening yielding biased conclusions. It’s fine to have opinions but drawing bold conclusions is best done…

    I heard that one way to check quality is to look at the type of capacitors used on the board. Capped are cheap and don’t last long (they have a vent on top) and when they blow they…

    Isn't Adani coal mine meant to start commercial-scale coal mining soon? It's right next to the Great Barrier Reef. "From there, container ships will weave their way through the Gre…

    Salt is a preservative and a key ingredient behind "ultraprocessed products". Are there ultraprocessed products with minimal amount of salt?

    I wouldn't call it arbitrary sequence, it's a specific sequence ie. s protein for covid. Saying that, it's now a known cause of blood clotting in some recipients: https://www.scien…

    “Human review and reporting” - fact checkers? Or are we to assume that their AI is 100% effective. This will not end well..
