That's a big odd - because creatine seems to be the universally beloved thing and that it's a bit natural and has positive effects with zero negative side effect. Not a criticism but aside fro proten, creatine seems to be 'the natural thing'. Pun intended.
Not only that, but Spybook aka Facebook, also connected offline information, e. g. I think if I recall it was dental care or something like that. I don't remember the year (edit: a google search led me to this article from 2018, but I could swear this was several years before that - see https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-43668607), but it was scary that they go and sniff for ALL data they can find about people. This brings mega-corporation to a new level of Evil. And I haven't even gotten to talk about Google here, yet ...
Yeah that's actually something I investigated recently, and there was even a paper I read where what that guy said was part of the discussion/conclusion section. Supplementing large amounts of creatine can lead to a false positive on a urine panel. If I remember correctly, there may have only ever been one case where a man had kidney failure after consuming lots of creatine, but causation can't be established at all.
I can think of worse. Inspired by somewhat surrealist names of a cat video, I'm pretty sure naming them "HP Inkjet 3482" would be a worse name for an AI model and lead to copyright issues from Hewlett-Packard.
The vast majority of people aren't aware of open versus closed protocols. If enough people they want to communicate with are using it to counterbalance how frustrating it is, they'll use it. It happened because businesses realized there's profit in lock in, and they threw resources at it.
Open protocols are still there and still used, but we're sad because the smaller userbase is frustrating. Just like how people still publish human written content to personal blogs, but they're proportionally non-existent.
This has been my understand as well. I have CKD and my doctors have always been chill about it as long as I stop taking it about a week before having blood work done
AI tools have put friction where it should be - by eliminating incidental friction. By incidental friction I mean, things that were really not ambiguous, but were made so due to lack of access to resources.
As an example, if i needed to navigate, I used a paper map. There was friction in pulling out a map, planning a route etc. This took time. With digital mapping apps this sort of incidental friction is not there.
Real friction is inherent ambiguity. For example, what product does the market need ? By eliminating incidental ambiguity, AI allows us to focus on the smallest hard-problem - where there is ambiguity.
This is one study with 20 subjects and has never been replicated. There have since been multiple studies and reviews that have found no effect on hair loss or follicle health
This has always been overblown and clearly that “many” was an insignificantly small portion of the population once the rubber met the road. Just because you have a favorable opinion of the Russian government doesn’t mean you’re going to suddenly start singing the anthem when they when their tanks cross the border out of nowhere as they start bombing you/you’re friends.
So many left after all this so Ukraine’s sympathetic-to-Russia population will no longer be significant by any metric. Putin knows this. He’s lost Ukraine forever if he doesn’t make them surrender.
$50 per month for unlimited, not $50 per friend, so your solution only works if you only have 1 friend, so it would work for me (self-deprecating joke) but may not for GP.
I've been running this a bit with a Polar chest strap heart monitor. I'm thinking about forking it to add some audio cues so that I can have it running in the background while I work and try to keep my heart variability up. I find that I tense up when I'm intent on the work which leads to a lot of problems. I'm hoping having something like this app that uses audio cues for breathing but only comes on when my heart variability drops into the red could get me into a continuous state of low sympathetic nervous system activation while working, which is very much not the norm for me for historical reasons.
The author of this tool eventually created a heart rate monitoring hardware product and an app to go with it to do HRV training. I think `every-breath-you-take` may have been an early prototype that he generously open sourced(?)
Anubis is designed to stop a certain class of badly behaved bots. It internally doesn't run if a bot identifies itself with a UA, such as Googlebot, because then you can rate limit it block by UA and with other tools.
Anubis is active when a user agent looks like a web browser (e.g. contains the "Mozilla" substring every major browser uses). The reverse proxy serves an interstitial page that does a proof-of-work check, validated server side, setting a cookie if it passes.
This means a legitimate user work constantly get the proof of work check, because they already passed it. But AI bots rotating through tons of residential IPs to scrape your forum or git forge or whatever will be slowed down.
Overall, I like the idea. It's unobtrusive, privacy preserving, and seems to be working out well for a lot of sites.
I think it's mostly emergent. I can even point to a plausible mechanism, which is that if you think of an organization as a network of people and how they are connected together, you can think of "responsibility" as something that arcs through an organization like electricity and burns out whatever it courses through, prompting the creation of alternatives to avoid getting zapped the same way in the future.
It isn't completely inevitable, I think it's possible for relatively strong leadership to understand that the processing of responsibility through an organization is a necessary feature and people handling it without external forces conspiring to make it even more like that it will "burn out" a part of the org is a necessity and a good thing. But it's really easy for an organization to just default to burning out the path and evolving ways to avoid it in the future, and it is very motivated to make it happen.
