Why was I not informed that @pluralistic's Picks and Shovels was another Martin Hench story?
Dangit, I'd been putting off reading it thinking it was non fiction like Chokepoint Capitalism (an awesome book I very much enjoyed) so I had it on THAT to read list 😀
At least now I know, and I'll look forward to it after I finish Ancilliary Sword which is also stunningly good 😀
This past weekend, OTM co-host Micah Loewinger went to Seattle to sit down with an all-time favourite guest of the show: tech activist and writer Cory Doctorow.
China is rapidly gaining an edge over the U.S. in biotechnology, particularly in drug and agricultural development. The Harvard Belfer Center identified biotech as the sector where China has the most opportunity to overtake the U.S.
U.S. biotech hubs like Cambridge and Boston are experiencing layoffs and empty labs. China's biotech industry strengths include its dominance in pharmaceutical production and manufacturing, more human talent.
For all the attention on U.S.-China AI competition, new studies point to China's rapid rise in biotechnology, especially for drug and agricultural development.

the meniscus i had trimmed about a decade ago turned out decent but the one i didn't get done has some pain. probably it's torn and needs to be trimmed
All that would happen would your entire meniscus getting cut up then, as why would a LLM know how to do surgery, considering it doesn't even have intelligence?
Surgery is known for sometimes making a problem worse even if a competent surgeon does it - thus surgery should be a last resort.
AI is already expert level at reading x-rays, such as identifying pneumonia in lungs. trust me lad AI will be doing surgery within a decade, and with a much lower rate of screw ups than human doctors
Unfortunately the output of neural networks is proprietary, as that's clearly lacks source code and is an act of reverse engineering to understand it.
Neural networks are nowhere near experts at reading x-rays - they just are extremely fast at comparing every single x-ray on record that contained pneumonia with the current image and notifying the expert if pneumonia is suspected, working around some human error where a condition is simply missed.
Such scheme actually needs a expert to check and determine if there's a false positive or not.
I don't see how you could go from a neural net that is good at giving suggestions as to what condition a scan contains, with some false positives and some false negatives, to the much harder task of actually performing a surgery and not screwing it up within a decade.
@Suiseiseki same way you can go from full self driving cars constantly crashing and being dangerous to being road legal now in some st ates (although personally i think this is still premature)
>Take a look at how the exponential things are going with LLMs. >They're throwing exponentially more computing resources at it, but it just doesn't get any better. It's quite clear that such technology is going to progress over many years, but not exponentially.
@rw @jazzilla Who said anything about atheism? I'm not an atheist. I just don't need an outside source for morality.
I don't know who you should look to. Maybe just one source? Any at all? The point made in the clip is there are multiple sources of people who existed throughout history, just no other sources for people in the bible.
I'm not the expert but every bible scholar will tell you there are things in the bible that are simply not true. That's my point. You're dealing in half truths.
@jazzilla you missed my point. The biblical explanation is miraculous and not explained by atheist science.
But to your point, which writers should we look to that were in the area Abraham lived, wrote about the relevant topic, and their works were preserved for 4000+ years?
There is plenty of evidence for the biblical account, but you require writings about specific characters, or else they never existed. An argument from silence.
Have you ever noticed that our perceptions of “ancient” history is nearly 100% created by the Judeo-Christian Bible, so much so that it feels as if history did not happen unless it was in the Bible…
@rw @jazzilla He's not talking about cities. He's talking about people. He's saying the only evidence of the people written about in the bible...are in the bible and no other texts from that period.
Sure there is evidence of places written about in the bible...it's called telling a half truth and it's designed to manipulate and deceive people. Try again.
those who won't seek the truth will be given over to strong delusions.

@jazzilla I sent you a link to an article that tells you about multiple historical writings which confirm many persons described in biblical accounts. The closer you get to current times, the more accounts have survived. New Testament accounts have loads of corroborating evidence, and of course those texts reference the older texts as well.
"Every bible scholar will tell you things in the bible are not true" Except for the thousands of scholars who teach it is inerrant.

Davon wieder weg zu kommen wird nicht ohne massiven Druck von außen gehen. Sie fordern von ihren ausländischen Kolleginnen und Kooperationspartnern israelischer Institutionen außerhalb von Israel ganz klar: Brecht die Beziehungen ab, brecht die Kooperation ab. Signalisiert, dass ihr gern wieder mit ihnen zusammenarbeiten werden, wenn Israel das koloniale Projekt stoppt, der Genozid endet und Palästinenser selbstbestimmt leben können.

A ship filled with 3160 ChiComm made cars - including 65 EV and 600 Hybrids is burning in the pacific Ocean - fire started in the EV section.
This is the 3rd ship that caught fire because of EV battery failures.
Fire suppression system didn't stop the fire.
Even better: the ship is carrying 350 metric tons of fuel oil and 1500 metric tons of gas.
Crew has abandoned ship.
EV's are dangerous because when the battery goes - there's very little that can be done except watch the fireworks as the Lithium Ion battery goes into thermal-runaway. Not so green.

1/2 A brain implant just let a paralyzed man walk again — with no body movement required. At Lausanne University Hospital in Switzerland, a man who had been paralyzed from the waist down for over a decade just took steps again — not with exoskeletons or braces, but by using a digital bridge between his brain and spinal cord. Neurosurgeons implanted two wireless devices: one on his motor cortex (inside his skull) and one on his spinal cord.
2/3 These implants decode the man’s intention to walk and send signals directly to the lower spine, bypassing the damaged area completely. No cables. No external assistance. With a few weeks of training, the man could walk across a room, climb stairs, and even navigate uneven ground. His movements were not robotic or jerky — they were fluid, responsive, and conscious. This is the first time a full digital bypass of a spinal injury has resulted in real-world, self-initiated walking.
3/3 The system uses machine learning to decode brain signals in real-time and adapts over time to match the patient's movement goals. It's not just a tool — it's an extension of the nervous system. And as incredible as it sounds, the man’s original spinal cord function began showing signs of natural reconnection after several weeks, suggesting that stimulation may promote healing too. Neurotechnology has reached a point where thought alone can resurrect motion — even after years of silence.
Global economic growth is slowing more than expected only a few months ago as the fallout from the Trump administration’s trade war takes a bigger toll on the U.S. economy, the OECD said on Tuesday, revising down its outlook.
14 pays, dont quatre membres permanents, ont soutenu la résolution visant à mettre fin à la guerre à Gaza et à autoriser l'acheminement de l'aide humanitaire, tandis qu'un seul pays s'y est opposé. La résolution a été rejetée.
Indeed, there was a massive presentation focused on platforms' enshittification, basing on your articles on that matter, very interesting and - I believe - eye-opening for the listeners (digital marketing people), at least for some of them. 😀
"The essential characteristic of Western civilization that distinguishes it from the arrested and petrified civilizations of the East was and is its concern for freedom from the state. The history of the West, from the age of the Greek polis down to the present-day resistance to socialism, is essentially the history of the fight for liberty against the encroachments of the officeholders."
-- Ludwig Von Mises (1881-1973) Economist and social philosopher
Finding computer equipment that respects user freedom and owner control can feel a lot like squeezing water out from stone.

This is deliberate and open starvation as a weapon of war. Israel has made these food hubs the only method of obtaining food aid, refusing to let aid agencies in. And the world stands by. I am deeply ashamed of my own government for supporting these genocidaires.
As long as you believe that “authority” is legitimate you'll always be the loser because in your own head you believe that you are a slave to anyone who claims to be an "authority”.
The truth is that you are an autonomous, inherently free individual. You ARE your only authority.
