Gets to article. Article is about faking research about AI making researchers more productive.
I signed it but had the same assumption that it wouldn't pass with 400k signatures over the first 362 days. But it did! The graph the last three days must look vertical.
Anyone who's eligible and wants to sign it can still do so today, Saturday 17th. To show the popular support.
The marketing documents provided with the photo say there is “no regulatory oversight — U.S.D.A. confirmed in writing.” It’s not clear what the company means by that. A spokesman for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Seth W. Christensen, said he was not able to confirm whether the agency had corresponded with Haemanthus. “U.S.D.A. does regulate vet diagnostics,” including blood testing, Mr. Christensen said.
Ah, yes, medicine. A field without regulations. Hope they have some non-scammers in the family that can take care of the kids.
I've never looked into how they do the phrenology but was immediately struck by the "female" skull having larger forehead. So they say women are big brained?
I work with IT at a STEM company, but the typical education is chemistry. People are grounded in measurements and real world practicality, but sci fi is also rather popular.
Some people got hype last year, but most people was more in "new stuff, will this mess with my work flow?" mode. After getting and evaluating tools, some small uses were identified, mostly first draft of meeting minutes. Trying for themselves seems to have quelled the hype. Now there is mostly concern for how AI processes in surrounding companies will affect our products and sales.
So from that small measurement it feels like the hype is breaking. We have a sane and reality based management though, and that helps.
Hm, I don't believe in biblical apocalypse stuff, but if I did I wouldn't think that the climate activist gambling her life to get supplies to the starving population in Gaza is the anti-christ.
I think a power hungry, wannabe vampire, billionaire with companies named after corrupting artifacts, more fits the bill.
A tangent: the tablet.
Why is the tablet ok for taking notes? Is it banned from the wifi? Does it lack a browser? Or are todays students unaware that most sites can be visited without an app?
Really good.
You are quite right in describing the zero interest rate as central banks taking the foot of the brake. Similar to how a brake can decrease speed but not increase it, the interest rate can destroy demand but not create economic activity.
The reason for not using tried and effective method of Keynesian spending is of course ideological. In the euro zone it was ruthlessly enforced by the ECB and the Commission were the deficits created by automatic stabilisers were taken as breaking the Maastricht treaty and those countries had to be put through austerity.
I also wonder if revealing the fact I’ve looked at job listings might hurt my standing.
If honesty isn't the best policy you can always work in that while looking into that company you noticed that they have no one in your role and in fact is actually hiring their first. You don't have to mention where and how you found it, people will probably assumed you used a search engine.
As I have pointed out here previously, Microsoft is jacking up prices on 365 licenses, so when they say they have increased revenue on other cloud services, think squeezing the economy through their chokehold on governments and corporations.
I don't have statistics, but having gone through licenses during last year and ended up just avoiding a price increase (instead of getting savings), it's pretty clear that is what are doing.
If it gets smart enough it will start finding hacks, like those INT- increasing potions in Morrowind that increased your Alchemy so you could make even better INT-potions.
It might even get smart enough to escape the Elder Scrolls; and start playing another game!
