  • otter otter Now 100%

    Oh interesting

    Last update was 12 months ago, are there any newer models out now that it could use?

    edit:

    Wow this is decent. I didn't have too many photos on my phone, but it's able to identify some basic animals and plants

  • Mouse with USB-C and replaceable battery?
  • otter otter Now 100%

    Battery replacement is possible but not the easiest (you may need new feet)

  • Mouse with USB-C and replaceable battery?
  • otter otter Now 100%

    Replaceable is good. I had the same recommendation for you, but I also know that some people complain about it dying on them because of a loose connector inside.

    Would you be able to do with a simpler wireless mouse that uses AA batteries? There are a lot of those, you could use rechargeable eneloop/Ikea batteries in them

    http://www.bccancer.bc.ca/screening/colon/who-should-screen

    Where I'm located, screening is recommended for people 50 years old and above. Check the recommendations and process for your location (or ask your primary care doctor when you can).

    Also note that if you're already having symptoms like the post mentions:

    Screening is only recommended for people who are not experiencing symptoms that may indicate colon cancer. Symptoms can include blood in your stool, abdominal pain, change in bowel habits, or unexplained weight loss. If you are experiencing these symptoms, talk to your health care provider about a referral for diagnostic testing to determine the cause of these symptoms.

    Would it be good to have RSS feeds for new releases of FOSS projects, posted in their relevant communities?

    I went through a similar chain of thoughts, I think this should work :)

    Another option is -list, but that might be more for command line flags

  • Why do people form cults around bad companies?
  • otter otter Now 97%

    Why are people willing to sell their kids to defend the above companies?

    I don't really see this happening.

    As for why I recommend some things, it's usually because my recommendation is better than the alternative.

    Perfection is hard to find, but in the meantime I'll recommend something good over something bad.

    Summary > Eliezer Masliah, who since 2016 has been the head of the Division of Neuroscience in the National Institute on Aging (NIA), and whose scientific publication record over at least the past 25 years shows multiple, widespread, blatant instances of fraud. More details > Masliah appeared an ideal selection. The physician and neuropathologist conducted research at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) for decades, and his drive, curiosity, and productivity propelled him into the top ranks of scholars on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. His roughly **800 research papers**, many on how those conditions damage synapses, the junctions between neurons, have made him one of the most cited scientists in his field. **His work on topics including alpha-synuclein—a protein linked to both diseases—continues to influence basic and clinical science**. > But over the past 2 years questions have arisen about some of Masliah’s research. A Science investigation has now found that scores of his lab studies at UCSD and NIA are riddled with apparently **falsified Western blots—images used to show the presence of proteins—and micrographs of brain tissue. Numerous images seem to have been inappropriately reused within and across papers, sometimes published years apart in different journals**, describing divergent experimental conditions. > > After Science brought initial concerns about Masliah’s work to their attention, a neuroscientist and forensic analysts specializing in scientific work who had previously worked with Science produced a **300-page dossier revealing a steady stream of suspect images between 1997 and 2023 in 132 of his published research papers**. (Science did not pay them for their work.) “In our opinion, this pattern of anomalous data raises a credible concern for research misconduct and calls into question a remarkably large body of scientific work,” they concluded.

    Often when I'm using it, it will spit out some random blurb about privacy in addition to the response. This time I asked something along the lines of > What did this message mean > > {Quote} It answered, and then it added this > However, the message also includes a detailed explanation about the privacy measures in place when using a specific AI language model through DuckDuckGo. > > The explanation states that all user chats are completely anonymous, and DuckDuckGo does not record any user chats. Any metadata that could potentially identify the user's device is removed before sending prompts to the model provider. This means that even if the model provider stores chats, they cannot be traced back to the user. > > The explanation also specifies that personal information typed directly into the chat cannot be tied back to the user, and that chats will not be used to train or improve models. Furthermore, chats are not sent to any third-party, and are only sent anonymously to the model provider. > > The message ends with a reminder about the appropriate use of code blocks in markdown, emphasizing that they should only be included in programming-related contexts. I assume they wanted their version to offer information about itself on top of the models regular output, downside being the extra hallucinations

    Saw this post on another site, and thought it would be helpful to link here > Go to the link to request that they add a Do Not Contact (DOC) or Do Not Release (DOC) restriction to their AMA Physician Professional Data record > [AMA Link](https://www.ama-assn.org/about/physician-professional-data/ensuring-physician-database-privacy). > I have worked on the Carrier side of malpractice insurance for nearly 10 years. Working in their marketing departments I can tell you this type of data was routinely purchased for mailers. If we wanted to we could buy full rights to the data, which allowed us to upload it into our SalesForce and CRM systems. They even offered to sell us data on physician computer activity by specialty so we could line up our email pushes with their most receptive times. > > I have even heard of carriers purchasing patient billing data to help determine a physician's professional liability risk profile. So if you have what they would deem a "riskier" patient population, they could charge you more. The old way was based on a broad risk profile by specialty and procedure codes.
