@MikeGropp @_MG_ The nand nor thing is not the novel part

@_MG_ A man has to try

This will probably explode AI/ML in ways I can barely understand. You can build any Boolean logic circuit (aka your whole computer) using nothing but NAND (or NOR) gates. We use them to evaluating formulas. But they came up with an “eml” that is analogous to the NAND gate. Except it’s a primitive that allows you to search the space for possible continuous functions instead.

@PepeMILFHunter @AndrewG29922648 @NekowafersNyan @Aelthemplaer Using maxwells equations isnt really the most accurate way, since you have to ensure a lot of variables to be exactly right to get good measurements. Even though the theoretical foundation is solid. Laser interferometry can produce more accurate results

@AndrewG29922648 @NekowafersNyan @Aelthemplaer Dumbest shit I've ever heard. Read a book.

Funny you mention that. There's a known anomaly with c itself: It's slowing down - and it's not random. The speed of light in the 1940s was beyond the margin of error in the 19th century: meaning a good indicator of slow down. Then it sped up in the 1950s. It's been flat since...

@michelleschilds @aakashgupta What are you talking about? I work in an european hospital pharmacy, from time to time we do break open the 90-capsule containers to give a different portion. For example when they've been discharged from hospital and already received a certain #

@aakashgupta Why don’t they just come prepackaged in set amount intervals like in Europe and they just hand out however many packages needed? No counting pills needed.

The machine counting these pills does something the tweet doesn't show. It saves an annotated photo with every fill. Each pill gets sequentially numbered. The drug NDC, Rx number, and timestamp get stamped onto the image. That photo is why pharmacies buy this machine. The camera captures 5 frames per second and matches each object against a shadow-pill reference for that specific drug. Count accuracy hits 99.99%. Counting was never the main source of pharmacy errors. Pooled global dispensing error rate is 1.6%. The breakdown: wrong drug, wrong strength, wrong dosage form, wrong directions, missed drug interactions. Cognitive errors from workload, interruptions, and lookalike drug names drive about 80% of incidents. The Eyecon's barcode scan covers one of those categories (wrong drug at the fill station, by validating the stock bottle against the Rx). It cannot catch wrong-strength prescriptions. It cannot catch wrong-patient handoffs. It cannot catch drug interactions. Those stay 100% human. What the machine actually changed is the economics of complaints. Before Eyecon, a customer calling three weeks later claiming they were shorted 5 pills was your word against theirs. After Eyecon, the pharmacist pulls up a time-stamped photo with 91 numbered pills. The dispute ends in 30 seconds. Counting accuracy was a solved problem. Proving you were accurate was not. That's the gap this machine sells into.

@Nothernlight73 @Denkjewel Dit moet bait zijn lol

@Denkjewel Dat ie er foto van maakt en het op de socials zet. Dàt is er raar aan. Ooit de first lady in bikini gezien?

Echt iedere Nederlander loopt er zo bij als het barbecueweer is. Ik snap werkelijk niet wat hier raar aan zou moeten zijn.

@numptypants @Lupercal90 @AnechoicMedia_ Also i have to clear up something misleading in my original comment: The diets were matched for calories and nutrients as offered, but participants ate ad libitum. On the ultra-processed diet they consumed more calories, which likely explains much of the harm.

@BorisUitham @Lupercal90 @AnechoicMedia_ Here's the one you probably mean. If you know any more lemme know. I've got to improve my own diet. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Ultraprocessed food isn't a coherent scientific concept and the attempts to formalize it have been a joke, as with the scale used in this study. Slice a potato and bake it: Unprocessed (Group 1) Slice a potato and fry it: "Ultraprocessed" (Group 4) Nuts: Unprocessed Nuts, salted: "Processed" (Group 3) Homogenized, pasteurized milk: Unprocessed Milk churned with sugar into ice cream: "Processed" This is a search for a scientific-sounding language to describe why one set of foods is nutritionally suspect, but in moralizing terms of how it was created by an industrial system, rather than characterizing food impacts directly by nutritional content or satiety. They can't just call the system "added sugar" because that's too obvious and not morally satisfying.

@numptypants @Lupercal90 @AnechoicMedia_ Yes thats the one, and there is a similar one that doesnt investigate harm but it does study overeating in upf vs mpf: hall et al 2019

@thinkingshivers For this to be true you would have to assume that light always moves in a perfectly straight line and also that there is no such thing as a fata morgana

High up in the Pyrenees there exists a peak, atop which one can allegedly see all the way to the French Alps. Some men even claim to have taken photos of this 275 mile line-of-sight. Unfortunately, when you crunch the numbers, you find that this is impossible. If the earth were round, its curvature would block the view!

@BANDO_300 @turnstylerock @Cine_vichaar Thats not necessarily the same, if you purify 50g 50% into 100% 20g its less yield but higher purity

@turnstylerock @Cine_vichaar I could be misremembering, but doesn’t the show constantly make a big deal about the “yield” of the product because of the purity? Might not be the case irl, just something for the show, but wasn’t it said the higher the purity, the more meth you get for the amount of investment?

it took me a rewatch of Breaking Bad to catch this… For the longest time, I thought Gus killing Victor was just him being cold and ruthless. But it actually makes a lot more sense when you think about it. Victor was seen at Gale’s apartment the night he was killed. That means if the police started asking questions or a sketch got released, Victor could’ve led straight back to Gus and the lab. At that point, he was a walking liability. So Gus removed the risk before it could become a problem. And at the same time, he sent a crystal-clear message to Walt and Jesse: nobody is indispensable.

@kittych0cklit @DmitriyLeybel @Xort_TC @AnechoicMedia_ Totally agree, natural ingredients can be unhealthy too. But a beef patty you make yourself is probably a lot healthier than a fast food beef patty so processed that you can keep outside at room temperature for months without it (visibly) going bad

@BorisUitham @DmitriyLeybel @Xort_TC @AnechoicMedia_ that's the other part of it. we have been rightfully suspicious of excess calorie intake for a while now and then here comes the "health food" industry with their sugar alternatives like honey that are still choc full of fructose

@RokoMijic @AnechoicMedia_ @cremieuxrecueil The headline is not the title of the actual study tho, thats WSJs fault

@AnechoicMedia_ @cremieuxrecueil The headline is also misleading because it says "raises" which is causal language but the actual data lacks causal evidence and is merely about associations. "Umbrellas raise the chance of rain by 900%!"

@Lupercal90 @AnechoicMedia_ Theres studies where both groups had same calories and macronutrients but one had ultraprocessed foods and the other one didnt, and they still saw it be more harmful

@AnechoicMedia_ "eating 9x the calories of a high calorie item greatly increases health risks vs eating only 1x the calories of the high calorie item 😱"

@kittych0cklit @DmitriyLeybel @Xort_TC @AnechoicMedia_ Ironically health halo marketing concerns ultra processed foods filled with additives where they slap a bunch of whey protein in it and claim its now healthy because its high protein. Enjoy your mcprotein

@DmitriyLeybel @Xort_TC @AnechoicMedia_ delusional victim of health halo marketing. there's no helping you lol

@zdr_0x @Pirat_Nation Its always some semi intellectual bs they reply

@Pirat_Nation Holy there's a lot of bots in these replies... Spotting LLMs is kinda obvious with such a niche subject. Anyway, I'm kinda with Nokia on this. The company is dead but a big reason for that was all the 'useless' R&D it did for ages... So why couldn't Asus and Acer just pay up?

Acer and ASUS are now banned from selling PCs and laptops in Germany following a Nokia HEVC video codec patent ruling.

@LeonardMJoyner @taustw @avidseries Baruch Spinoza, P.C. Hooft, Bredero, Joost van Vondel, Multatuli

@taustw @avidseries It IS the definition of literature. What counterpoint does the Netherlands offer?

@TheBlob48763 @DittiePE @esrtweet Yeah fuck all of them??? Why would there be any exceptions???

@DittiePE @esrtweet A ton of powerful people knew who weren't involved. Will you move the goal posts for them too? I suspect Trump knew of many other criminal enterprises as well, given his connections and business worldwide. Was he supposed to go around telling authorities wherever he went? Idiot.

I might just spend the next year laughing so hard that I'm in danger of rupturing my abdomen. Yes. The evidence that Donald Trump was a Federal informant in the Epstein case has been trickling out for a couple of years now. I am too libertarian to be MAGA and by no means Donald Trump's biggest fan, but I noticed this. What are the Trump-hating media and the Left (but I repeat myself) going to do now that these court documents are going public? They've backed themselves into a corner by incessantly screaming "Trump is a pedo!" despite the fact that he never went to Little St James and cut times with Epstein after Epstein hit on a 14-year-old Mar-A-Lago employee. Absolutely brilliant move by Trump not to exculpate himself by saying in public "I helped the law take Epstein down". Now his enemies are in so deep that all of their choices are horribly self-destructive. Look for a whole lot of journalists to have heart attacks and aneurysms as they grapple with the concept of publishing anything about this. They've organized their world-view and their public appeal around "Bad Orange Man is baaaad!" for so long that acknowledging he was one of the heroes of the Epstein story rather than a villain would break their brains and be reputational suicide. But the alternative - letting the truth leak out via social media while trying to smother it with non-coverage - would be in some ways even worse. The credibility of the journalistic establishment is already in the toilet. Contemplating how much worse it's going to get if they try to stonewall this is the part that makes me laugh so hard it hurts. What will happen if they actually backpedal might be even funnier to watch. Utter chaos, lefty/liberal brains melting by the millions, cats and dogs raining from the sky...indeed shall many things come to pass.

@AigleRoyalK @BiancoDavinci Thats just the diagram, in real life everything except for the double bond wiggles around like those flailing inflatable people things

Incredible hexagonal patterns on an olive tree.

@The1HooNocks @HaidarHashmi0 Talking about fuel explosion, priming, engine test video, might be spacex related. Elon musk?

@HaidarHashmi0 Who do you know that had a blackberry around 2009?

@ac_christophe @m4ckl @theaterlover1 @grok Battery of heat is a wrong analogy i realise but you get my point

@ac_christophe @m4ckl @theaterlover1 @grok Snow is white which is reflective and thus has high albedo and thus absorbs little light and warmth. In addition, the big mass of snow acts as a cooling pack (can be seen as a battery of heat) that quickly dissipates heating

@SamaHoole water footprint studies already separate rain (green water) from irrigation (blue water). Nobody thinks farmers ‘use’ rain. The point is land + rainfall used for beef can’t also grow food or ecosystems. That opportunity cost is the issue.

Activist: "You're using an obscene amount of water." Farmer: "Am I?" Activist: "Yes. Thousands of litres per cow." Farmer: "That's rainfall." Activist: "But they're drinking it." Farmer: "It rains on my pasture. The grass absorbs it. The cows drink from the stream. Then they piss it back into the soil." Activist: "It's still water consumption." Farmer: "Should I... stop the rain?" Activist: "You should use it for crops." Farmer: "The rain?" Activist: "Yes." Farmer: "The rain that falls on the grass that cows eat?" Activist: "Grow crops instead." Farmer: "With what irrigation? I just told you it's rainfall." Activist: "Find another way." Farmer: "To make it rain on crops instead of grass?"
