A lot of drugs cause permanent problems when abused, and are still prescribed. Testing is needed to figure out if there’s safe dosing and whatnot. Worse, safe dosage for one person may be incredibly unsafe for another, just like with depression meds which can permanently cause mental issues (in addition to depression) at normally prescribed and “safe” dosages. This is why honest discussions and ongoing check ins with your doctor is vital in any prescription change. Hell, penicillin almost killed my mom, and that’s relatively safe unless you have an allergic reaction.
Definitely hard to test with drugs that offer non medical and very obvious side effects. Hopefully there is an interesting breakthrough in understanding mechanics so we can make safe PTSD helping meds, but something so drastically painful to the person having it may not have a safe cure because the systems that go haywire are so ingrained in the preservation systems of our brains.
Brains are weird. Any tampering is possibly dangerous.
Science is pushing the bounds of human knowledge. Science is only science if it propagates, otherwise it’s just someone’s discovery. Science has to be built upon, even if it’s disproven, that means it was documented well enough to be built upon. That’s not to say everything that’s disproven is science, because crackpot theories don’t often push the bounds of human knowledge.
I hope the brilliant students get their knowledge out there. (But that is unfortunately hard in academia. Despite us living in what should be a post knowledge scarcity society, we clearly aren’t.)
This is why the machine learning community will go through ArXiv for pretty much everything. We value open and honest communication and abhor knowledge being locked down. This is why he views things this way. Because he’s involved in a community that values real science.
ArXiv is free and all modern science should be open. There were reasons for publications in the past, since knowledge dissemination was hard, and they facilitated it. Now the publications just gatekeep.
This is a fair question. But also, we’re talking about one of the most influential minds in deep learning. If anything he’s selling himself short. He’s definitely not first author on most of them, but I would give all my limbs to work in his lab.
I’ve noticed a lot of things that are considered autistic in the states specifically may be normal practice in various cultures, having worked with people in Germany, and from a large swath of Asia.
It interests me a bit, but I think the takeaway is that autism tends to manifest in a number of quirks, and the ones that don’t align with the current culture the autistic person is in are the ones that are paid attention to. That and there tends to be a bit more obsession over said quirks than in those cultures, sometimes to the detriment of the autistic person or their social life.
This feels appropriate to be posted on my birthday.
My parents.
Good luck. Don’t catch covid again if you can help it. Repeated exposure makes it worse. Pretty sure that’s where I’m at. At least I’ve been up to date with vaccines or it could have been much worse, likely.
Sony would have won that legal battle and AH would cease to exist.
The devs could move elsewhere, but backing for people who fought capitalism and lost is less favorable than you think. We probably would never get another Magicka. And definitely would never get another Helldivers, let alone Helldivers 2.
I’m all for overthrowing the system, but AH doesn’t have the sway to do anything but hope they can continue making fun games. And I hope they do. That gives them more sway, one game at a time.
They still need to go through Sony to get it onto the PS5. And Sony’s forced weird things before. It’s why there was an exclusive character for each console during Soul Calibur 2 days, Sony forced exclusive content in a game they didn’t publish in order to have that game on their console. There are plenty of other examples from that time, but I didn’t own a Sony system back then, so I can’t remember any off the top of my head.
Sony has final say on anything that goes into their console’s library, but they mostly mess with directly published games these days.
Yeah, U.S. pavement. A U.K. pavement princess would be a Mustang. They sure don’t like to stay on the road when trying to burn out.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silverfish are also pests. They eat books.
There are times where intersex babies need surgery to prevent complications. For anything else, let them wait until they can decide. Agreed 100%.
In America, it appears to have started being in vogue during WWII as a way for single moms whose husband is overseas to have less to take care of. After a bit of coercion, my parents admitted the hospital did it without even their consent. That does sound a lot like [insert birth state here] in the [insert birth decade here] so I didn’t question it.
According to the same wiki article, the hierarchical version you mention of Euclidean Zoning (named after Euclid, Ohio) fell out of favor in the US for flat zoning, which is much more restrictive. But since it’s always locality dictated, it’s always different wherever you go.
There is another point, which will be maintained still: decentralization allows you to jump ship and still use the service. If lemmy.world gets bought out somehow once it gets big enough, you’re free to leave and not lose anything. You can go to another instance or create your own with blackjack and hookers. In fact, forget the Lemmy instance…
The crapshoot and oversized influence issues are kind of core to how humans do things unfortunately. Even well distributed, the insurance sizes would likely adhere to zipf’s law, but the most talkative, and thus the majority of the content, would come from instances where those kinds of people flocked together. And the crapshoot is just decentralized administration being hard.
Man Skype used to be so good when it was peer to peer… I don’t see anything that MS brought to that platform that improved it at all.
I hate Slack Overflow (using Slack as documentation) but it beats the pants off of Discord Overflow.
True. Can we get it to 420 since we overshot 69?
