> The plastic concentrations in the organs were not influenced by the age of the person at death

There was a study in zebrafish that found that when they were removed from an environment high in microplastics, the levels of microplastics in their tissues decreased. It appears that microplastics don't monotonically accumulate in the body.
Yeah, just to save time.

I do like websites that have this as well. It feels like some effort, more than is needed for a MVP. However, to get people using it is also very important.

Thanks for the suggestions
"Sr. Director and given an opportunity to prove yourself"

from OP: "new team is known to be under-performing"

Uhh it sounds to me like the senior staff that the guy displaced OP with was the go-to guy and that OP has been given a shit sandwich. If OP wasn't specifically briefed by the sr director and TOLD "You're one of my go-to guys. I know this is a shit sandwich. Please help me fix it.", then this is basically constructive dismissal and they want you to just disappear.

On top of that, IME, go-to guys don't get sent to go fix stuff unless it's a clean sweep of the old "bad" team. They wouldn't send you in with known-low-performers, it's setting you up to fail.

Edit: Reading over other comments, I'm just in disbelief at how universally people are saying this is an opportunity. No, they cut off OP's support system, pushed them out of their top-spot, and off over to some team that leadership views as the trash pile. There's a difference between "this team is struggling and I'm bringing in support" and "damn, where do i put this guy. i'll just put them over here, with the rest of the fire."
The first priority needs to be keeping the virus out of the human food chain, but the second priority needs to be giving the virus opportunities to evolve to become less lethal. It will (as COVID did), because dead hosts are no use to it. I don't know whether culling flocks is better for that purpose than taking the additional time to let the virus kill the birds, but we need to be doing whatever accelerates the evolution of the virus.

> How does this make sense when zero percent of uploaded youtube videos are owned by the creators?

Says who and why should citizens of democratic countries listen to them? YouTube is a staple. If you reach this size, there are gonna be some rules. At least there should be.

They are welcomed to do that. But deciding to refuse service on arbitrary grounds to one client is something they shouldn't be allowed to do. Otherwise why not ban people because they are Jewish or gay or just at random to sow fear? When you offer your services to the public then you shouldn't be allowed to refuse service to any member of the public without a very good and specific reason.
Read widely.

Daily I check The Telegraph, Guardian, Independent, Mail (got to know what they are burning at), NYT, WaPo, Register, Private Eye, Skimfeed, Brutalist, The Times, Intercept, Spectator, Unherd, BBC and others in reddit and of course here.

I do this because one viewpoint is never enough but I hope that many angles helps.

If they "knew the questions in advance," why'd they need Internet access at all? The ability to use the same data sources humans would use is not the insult you seem to think it is.

Really going to need a citation for the claim that Deep Research is the world's "most mediocre researcher", the product was launched like 12 hours ago...

I'd buy it's not the best researcher in the world, but I'm willing to bet a lot that it's very far from the worst human researcher. I'd wager it's well above average.

One common barrier to suspension of disbelief is the Fermi Problem. A great deal of space opera just ignores it, but once you take the argument seriously it ruins much of the world building.

Great answer. However if this was 2014 I would have had the pleasure of proving you wrong:

Should the petrodollar end then that's also the end of the USD as the world's reserve currency. Were that to happen, the economic impacts to the United States would be severe. It'd be nice if we had leadership that understood these things. Instead, they seem more interested in positioning themselves to profit from our demise.
This is a great idea, we could have a "advocate bot" that takes a small brief and advocates your app on your behalf to the Google bot. What a time to be alive!
I understand your point in general, but I don’t think it applies to Kagi. Users were paying the same monthly fee and then the company added those features on with no extra subscription cost. I also like that it doesn’t clutter my search. It doesn’t appear unless I press the AI button or end my search with a question mark (can also be disabled).

The only extra costs are if you use the (opt-in optional) AI Assistant which is a web UI to access various models for chatting purposes. As an aside, they recently updated this UI so it’s actually usable as a ChatGPT or Claude alternative.

In the 20th century, "everybody" pitied the fool who thought Trump was going to learn how to play well with others.

From the article:

> China’s AI strategy, for example, leverages state-led initiatives and private-sector innovation to great effect.

The Communist Party's influence and coersion is not something I'd celebrate.

Where did DeepSeek's innovation begin? With the US private enterprise and private investment that led to the foundational AI R&D (Transformers, LLMs etc).

DeepSeek then built upon this research, which was shared openly by the West.

The author's complaints about monopolistic hoarding by the West fail to acknowledge how generous US companies like Google were with their research publication.

Both Silicon Valley and DeepSeek should be commended for their contributions. Yes, Silicon Valley does have a lot of speculative VC sloshing about, and that might make it a little less efficient, and more "scatter gun" - but it's Silicon Valley where most big tech innovation originates. Not China. Chinese companies simply keep an eye on any winning formulae originating from the US, which they then replicate.

So please don't lambast Silicon Valley and heap praise on an autocratic, human-rights-abusing regime that is -rightly- sanctioned by the US.
It’s about high speed face tracking.

Yeah like many things Python's overnight success was the result of a decade of work. Python started involving scientists (and creating science-oriented SIGs) in the mid 90s. Numpy's original ancestor was Numeric, first released in 1995.

Maybe they should use some of that "AI Detection" to stop outright fraud call centers from buying top ranking ad links for the "customer service phone number" for various big corporate names.

If I had a dollar for every time I've seen a report of some elderly person that googled a company name and called a friendly-sounding 800 or 888 or similar number, to get roped into some complicated scam payment, I'd probably have enough to pay for google workspace until age 90.
I saw an interesting quote from the deekseek CEO:

"When tackling a task, experienced people might reflexively tell you 'this is how it should be done,' while those without experience will experiment repeatedly, think deeply about the best approach, and ultimately find a solution tailored to the actual circumstances."

I do not think that OpenAI is out of ideas, but I do believe that large businesses have difficulty overcoming the innovator's dilemma. In addition to big businesses, there are also many small and very smart companies that are using investors' over exuberance to their advantage. Nevertheless, there are enough people trying that some are likely to find a way to develop higher-quality models at a lower cost.
Macbooks have surprisingly bad interactions with external audio devices these days. I've had all sorts of digital artifacts in the audio, and the only actual crash that I've had occurred when replugging in an audio device.
So your plan is to freak out every time some junior backbencher proposes something, like it actually means something? You'll be freaking out all the time, and what will it accomplish? You might as well put on a pink hat and run around Washington DC for a weekend.

And then, maybe when the idea actually gets pursued, it won't seem so controversial because all the energy was wasted before it was actually a thing.

If you don't want it dismantled, you can start by not getting distracted by dumb stuff and/or taking the bait. Then, the next step is to realize the politics of maximum opposition failed, and try something else.
You're likely underestimating what rats can and will chew through to get a bite to eat.
Here is one thing: I work on a feature branch off of main. It takes me a bit and I want to rebase my branch onto the newest changes.

It seems with the git command line the way to do it is to switch to main then pull then switch back to my feature branch then rebase.

With lazygit i hit f on the main branch which pulls its changes then i can rebase (r) right away.

I also like to review the diff of each file before staging it. I get a nice list of changed files, i can select one and see the diff in it, then I can stage it.
Currently, when AI models solve problems, they write out long chains of thoughts (like showing their work in math). While helpful, this takes up a lot of computing power.

Heima does something clever - instead of writing out long explanations, it compresses each step of thinking into a single "thinking token." Think of it like using a shorthand symbol instead of writing out a full sentence.
This results in short term gains of being able to deliver something quickly, but the devs who used LLMs did not learn anything.

The value for a developer is not in simply flipping a piece of code into production, it’s in learning how to find the documentation, how to dig through it to find the functions they need, how to chase down the chain of dependencies for the input and outputs, and all the other incidental exposure they get to related information they might not need for this specific request but may be relevant in the future.

While a company may not care and just wants to ship code, this is talking about what developers lose, not what companies lose. Also a company focused on this type of short term gain is losing the ability to have someone ready to find problems when the code doesn’t work as expected.
