  • A photo of myself bruised up summarizes this year for me, what would yours be?

    Jump

  • Thanks for posting in shower thoughts.

    Rule 2 is that the entire thought must be in the title. Do you think you could edit your post?

    Ideally shower thoughts are applicable to lots of people. See the side bar for examples. I guess the idea that the prior year has been bruising, but we made it through, could be generally applicable.

  • The Copenhagen Trap: How the West made passivity the only safe strategy

    Jump

  • The article seems to capture that to some degree:

    This is not a human universal. Continental Civil Law systems (France, Germany) criminalize failure to rescue—you can face imprisonment for not helping when you could do so without risk. Islamic law's Fard Kifaya creates communal duty: if no one rescues the drowning, the entire community is considered sinful. These traditions recognize that the bystander is not merely an observer but a citizen with affirmative duties.

    Interesting article. I would be interested in the counter arguments.

  • Tattoo Ink Moves Through the Body, Killing Immune Cells and Weakening Vaccine Response

    Jump

  • In the study the longest they waited after tattooing the mouse before giving the vaccine was 2 months.

    They made some connections with people that had tattoos for a much longer time. But I can't tell how meaningful those connections are.

    This is well outside of my field.

    Edit:

    Also, it sounds like the tattooed mice were less responsive to the covid vaccine but more responsive to the Influenza vaccine.

  • Carbon capture is good to develop but Its no excuse to burn more fossil fuels. The tech is just not very good. A bunch of it was just proven to be fraudulent.

    Cutting emissions and moving to solar and wind is viable. This policy is not based in reality.

  • What's if instead of a dead internet we end up with a dark forest internet

    Jump

  • This is something I'm very curious about. It seems like a really necessary utility in the future.

    A way for people to validate other people but not totally blow away all privacy. Large group chats, email providers, etc already try to solve it. It would be cool to see some powerful open source tooling. Like what Signal is to E2E encrypted chats.

  • Liberapay is really nice. I like the payment options they have to minimize the fees, like making 2 years of small "monthly" payments in a single charge to your bank card.

  • Anti-AI communities might be helping AI training by filtering AI-generated content

    Jump

  • Rule 2 is a little gray but if the title reads like a catchy headline, then it's probably not a complete thought. Another way to think about it, the title should make you want to read more because it's a good thought, not because it a cliff hanger.

    OP, would you mind updating the title with a little more context?

    For example if you added "because they are providing training data" to the title. It would seem more like a complete thought to me.

  • I try to be objective where I can but all of the rules have gray area so I try to err on the side of not taking things down. Little nudges from the community, like your comment here, help to shape the community so thanks for being an engaged member!
