I'm trying to understand your post:

> But you only need look once at the Crab Nebula never to be able to un-see the turbulent flow that would be impossible in a gas at that pressure.

Just what "pressure"? Of what? Where? And near the Crab Nebula (the pictures are amazing) but how is that relevant, related, does correspond to the big flows or whatever of the OP?

> The rule is that a heavy body can have a magnetic field, but it doesn't do much of anything -- certainly not affect the motion of quadrillions of tons of nearby plasma, never mind be affected by them.

In the context of the OP and/or the Crab Nebula, what is the "heavy body"? For the Crab, that is the neutron star or black hole at the center of the nebula? For the filaments of the OP, what is the "heavy body"?

Related, the OP is talking about some really hot gas, difficult to see because it is nearly transparent to visible light. So, why doesn't that gas cool just by escaping photons? And, how did the gas get so hot to begin with? We're supposed to accept that the heat came from some quasars?
Seeing the organisation name next to the lock icon definitely gives me an extra layer of warm and fuzzy feelings. I’d say it has some value for those that can pay for it.
I thought the image was used to test formats well before JPEG.
Personally I’m not bothered, and while the image isn’t pornographic, it is from Playboy which does make it at least porn adjacent. I see it’s use less as a matter of offensiveness or some headfuck of “intersectionality” and more as just immature and unprofessional. Sexuality is great, it’s everywhere, and I think it has literally nothing to do with this issue.

I can understand not wanting a Playboy model to be the standard image in a professional setting, especially a setting that is overwhelmingly full of guys.
Right, the difference between the two products is that the latter is the former, centrifuged and ammoniated.

The term “pink slime” is actually a derogatory one for all the little cuttings and “trim” that appear when cattle carcasses are being sliced up into steaks. Mechanically separated beef has been illegal in the USA since 2004 and I don't see that this ruling changes that. Please show me a source with this interpretation.
No, it’s the same product that has undergone additional steps to make it legal to serve to humans. The critical step is typically the application of ammonia, and less often, citric acid. Often the product is defatted prior to this step, but the only legal distinction is the use of a germicidal agent.
That's true. We can't know which came first though, I think the proposed solution to this is pre recording of methodology and hypothesis.

Honestly, I'm inclined to believe this study was done ethically, but I wanted to point out the possibility.
>The training procedure of MT-DNN consists of two stages: pretraining and multi-task fine-tuning. The pretraining stage follows that of the BERT model (Devlin et al., 2018). The parameters of the lexicon encoder and Transformer encoder are learned using two unsupervised prediction tasks: masked language modeling and next sentence pre- diction.3

and this:

>Our implementation of MT-DNN is based on the PyTorch implementation of BERT4. We used Adamax (Kingma and Ba, 2014) as our optimizer with a learning rate of 5e-5 and a batch size of 32. The maximum number of epochs was set to 5. A linear learning rate decay schedule with warm-up over 0.1 was used, unless stated otherwise. Fol- lowing (Liu et al., 2018a), we set the number of steps to 5 with a dropout rate of 0.1. To avoid the exploding gradient problem, we clipped the gradi- ent norm within 1. All the texts were tokenized using wordpieces, and were chopped to spans no longer than 512 tokens.

You won't be able to train BERT in 3 epochs.
Surely it can be sanitized with something else. Radiation or whatever.
Million thanks for sharing this. And, that guy in the video is incredibly talented. Not sure if he is doing it alone. But, irrespective of that, this video should be an extreme motivation for some of us who are just building a website and think - this is too much, I can't do it.
Well, using the whole animal isn't really the controversial part. In fact that's more or less why ground meat exists.

However you can't just ground pure trimmings as that wouldn't be particularly nice to eat, you need some good meat in there as well. The 'pink slime' described here seems to be some process that separates out additional fat using centrifuges in order to make something that fits the official standards for ground beef without the need to add any good meat. It's highly debatable meat that's been that extensively processed should still be considered ground meat.
You can do this today with CSPs, but page authors aren't interested.
"Don't be snarky."

Your first sentence seems mere sarcasm, and I don't get what you mean by the second. Only religious people are allowed to use the word 'miracle'? I don't know. If you'd used plain speaking and short words, we could've seen what you really have to say. As it is, I'm left wondering. I said 'as far as we know', which you misrepresent as me saying something about 'finally'. If you have evidence otherwise, you would've mentioned it I suppose; innuendo is all you have. Your quotation in the second sentence also misrepresents what I said. If that matters to you. You wrote like you are on the side of truth before you write a word, that all your audience here will recognize it, that eloquence and long words alone will deliver triumph. Less 'delicacy', more saying what you mean, please.
When I was younger, I had a fulltime contractor job where I only worked 4 days a week, and also had flexible starting times. The freedom was incredible and having just 1 extra day made work vs personal time seem much more equal (4 work, 3 off). I also got more done because longer days allowed me to get into flow more and I suspect most salaried workers already spend more than 8 hours a day anyway.

I've yet to really see any other companies do it, and I'm thinking of instituting that policy in our current startup, but it deserves serious consideration.
Economics 101 says that governments can discourage activities through taxing them.

Most people would argue that society should rather give people more income than corporations larger profits.

Therefore, corporations should be taxed more, and income taxed less.
We should applaud it really. It means more meat from fewer animals. Beef production is a huge source of greenhouse gas emissions.
I wonder if that would have to happen globally. We are still competing with companies in other countries. Chinese startups subscribe to the 996 schedule (9am-9pm, 6 days/week). I'm not sure if 954 allows us to compete.

I realize the HackerNews guidelines disallow comments that begin with "Did you even read the article?!", but I have to wonder if that prohibition applies to comments that themselves post a link that directly contradicts what is being argued.

That exact link you posted states:

> USDA regulations for procurement of frozen fresh ground beef products state that "Beef that is mechanically separated from bone with automatic deboning systems, advanced lean (meat) recovery (AMR) systems or powered knives, will not be allowed".

Mechanically separated meat is NOT the same thing as "pink slime", and the specific reasons that MSM is not allowed for humans (danger of mad cow disease) does not apply to "pink slime".
We have a set of reflexive attitudes about food that are largely uncorrelated with health, nutrition or the environment, but are strongly correlated with the social class of who eats what.

I wish this point was brought up more in nutrition discussions. Most of these recent fad diets like keto, paleo, and carnivore are beyond the means of most people in the world. So even if we accept, for the sake of argument (which I don't), that they have nutritional advantages there should be a giant asterisk at the end of the argument.
Consider the W48 warhead, the entirety of which (not just the core, but the whole thing) was 6.1 inches in diameter and less than 60kg.

Or the W54 was reputedly much lighter, but with a larger diameter.
The fissile core is a tiny part of the weight of a nuclear weapon, though. Little Boy weighed almost 10,000 lbs; it took a lot of explosive, metal, and circuitry to detonate it.

Because when I buy ground beef, I want ground beef. I don't want mechanically separated slime. It is false advertising to call it ground beef. It is as dishonest as putting horse meat into ground beef and calling it 100% ground beef even if people couldn't tell the difference.
It is the government's explicit policy to continually raise the price of housing (etc) so that most everybody is forced into working "full time" to keep up the "growth".

The elephant in the room is that all of those housekeeping tasks used to generally be done during the week by a second householder. So what happened?! Rather than double income households actually resulting in getting ahead, economic feedback simply made it the new normal!

Similar destruction of economic progress happened when Walmart (et al) gutted local business - a lot of high-margin employers went away, yet prices weren't allowed to go down. So rather than local economies' costs at least going down along with their pay, they only got the downside.

Taking into account women entering the workforce plus general technological progress, "full time employment" these days should be under 15 hours per week!
keto a fad diet? It's been around since the 1920s...
As far as I can tell, "mechanically separated meat" is meat that's been mechanically separated from bones by a grinding process. The prion fears are because some of the bone gets in, and some of the bone contains nerve tissue.

The article says that pink slime is instead made from beef trimmings, which does not involve that grinding process.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_meat_recovery

> The meat produced in this manner can contain no more than 150(±30) milligrams of calcium per 200 grams product, as calcium in such high concentrations in the product would be indicative of bone being mixed with the meat. Products that exceed the calcium content limit must instead be labeled "mechanically separated beef or pork" in the ingredients statement.
Here's the quote from BERT:

>We train with batch size of 256 sequences (256 sequences * 512 tokens = 128,000 tokens/batch) for 1,000,000 steps, which is approximately 40 epochs over the 3.3 billion word corpus.

Many state and county fairs include a livestock show. Often the exhibited animals are auctioned off at the end of the show. The animals are raised and exhibited by youth (4H, FFA, etc). The proceeds go to the (child) owner of the animal.

At our county fair, bidding starts at about $3/# on the hoof. They generally weigh between 1100# and 1500#. Butchers present at the auction take your order on exactly how you want it cut. The seller will show up on your doorstep with it cut, wrapped, and frozen. No charge beyond the bid price. Seller takes care of everything. Cost above market price is tax deductible.

Some of the best beef money can buy. Can help fund college. Swine, lamb, goat, etc might also be available at a show near you. If a whole beef is too much, go in with a group. A group of 4 can end up with 100+# each for less than $1000 a piece.

If this doesn't describe a livestock show near you, shop around. If none of this sounds like your cup of tea, forget I said anything.
i think it's more about the culture which allowed that image (even in its cropped form) to proliferate as it did:
> About six months later, a copy of the [Playboy] issue turned up at the University of Southern California’s Signal and Image Processing Institute, where Alexander Sawchuk and his team happened to be looking for a new photograph

i think we've come far enough to agree that having playboy issues in your research lab is no longer acceptable so why continue to implicitly endorse that?

Dude.. you're commenting on an article right now that changes that rule.

BPI uses AMR to recover the scraps. You can now call it ground beef. That's what we're all talking about it. That's what the article is about.
The fact that it is legal doesn’t make it any less of a PITA though.
This is very dishonest.

Pink slime contains connective tissue and muscle. There's no way it's equivalent in terms of nutritional value to actual meat. And don't forget it's treated with ammonia, which is the reason it's banned in the first world.
0 corporate tax rate means you have to generate the income in other ways, correct. Taxing corporations is effectively a way of taxing shareholders so if you want to remove the corporate tax rate you need to tax capital gains better. If you want to make it "fair" then treat capital gains as income. That will never happen in the US though.
OkCupid, CoffeMeetsBagel are a bit idealistic but they seem to be running well. It's just that different kinds of people are attracted to different kinds of things - flings, short term commitments, long term commitments etc.
Corporate profits get redistributed to individuals through dividends and buybacks, so taxing corporations is just taxing the income of individuals indirectly.
>I'm curious why you want modular parts rather than just designing a board that has what you want?

A design requires an effort (the TFA author worked for 3 months on it) and future changes to it requires extra effort. Plus you need to have the knowledge, the time, and the will to go through all this.

Whereas a modular component could be assembled by anybody, tested, changed to a different format if their needs change or they don't like the first one etc, at a moment's notice.
> This puree includes bone, bone marrow, skin, nerves, blood vessels, and the scraps of meat remaining on the bones.

"Pink slime" is made of the very last bits of meat and collagen remaining on the bones, mechanically scraped off and then put through a centrifuge to remove fat, extruded as thin tubes that are processed with ammonia or citric acid to kill off bacteria, then finely ground and compressed into blocks for shipping. It's only a "flavorful cut" if you consider your "flavorful cuts" to include "whatever remnants can be scraped off the spinal column after every bit of non-mechanical butchering is finished".
That's because they're not allowed legally to take those things as risk factors... Which is also hilarious. No creditor world finance a 19 year old male for a $120,000 high horsepower sports car at 6% interest. Yet government regularly does equivalent amount of money.

Those individuals who gain income from investments ought to be wealthier, and therefore, more able to handle the higher taxation. Income deriving from wages are currently taxed at a rate that's higher than income from investments, and most people would agree that this is an injustice.

Of course, those who make and pass laws are heavily connected with those who make their income via investments, and therefore, change is unlikely to happen.

Or taxing their income twice
It does seem a little niche, to be honest.
You keep posting this, but your own links are clear that this is false.

Mechanically separated meat is not allowed for human consumption specifically because of the danger of potential-prion-containing nerve tissue entering the product. Importantly, these prions are extremely difficult to deactivate, and thus it wouldn't make sense to allow this to be served to humans, no matter what further processing happened.

Here is a link from snopes that clarifies the difference: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/legal-separation/

> A meat product known as “boneless lean beef trimmings” (BLBT) or “lean finely textured beef,” pejoratively referred to as “pink slime,” is often confused with mechanically separated meat, although it is produced by a different process. In order to extract pricer lean beef from less valuable, fattier trimmings, centrifuges are used to separate the fat out of the meat trimmings, and the resulting lean beef is then squeezed through small tubes, where it is exposed to a small amount of ammonia gas, producing a pinkish substance. Unlike MSM, lean beef trimmings are legal for sale in the U.S., although they are mixed in with other meat products (usually ground beef) and generally do not comprise more than 25 percent of the final meat products purchased by end consumers.

> If you have a gravity detector that can distinguish where a photon's energy is localized, it also works as a photon detector in the QM measurement sense, and will collapse the wavefunction in the same way.

But in the Michelson interferometer, the Fabry-Perot, etc., the parts of the wave functions pass close to lots of mass, get reflected by mirrors, etc. without the wave function collapsing. So, a part of a wave function should be able to pass near a gravitational wave detector and be detected without causing the wave function to collapse?

Yes, but it matters which individuals you end up taxing and what they did to earn that income.

Amazon's employees, who earned their income by going to work and creating value, should bear less of the tax burden than people who are receiving money from dividends and buybacks because all they did was have enough money to invest it.
