  • Especially true for these overedited videos that have an intro, a random interruption in the middle asking you to sign in their patreon, a long explaination which goes around the issue without answering it. If I had to sign in every youtuber’s patreon I’d be broke by now. I have stopped to use youtube as much as before, since video assays have to be about 40 - 1:30 hours long. Well when I had to discuss my dissertation I was given 15 minutes. Also whem I’m asked to present a powerpoint I have about 15 minutes to 20. Youtubers can take whatever they want to do it, apparently. But if you’re talking for so long switch from an assay format to a documentary format please. That is the prooer way to handle it.



  • What you readily described has, as a matter of fact, applications in medicine in thr field of epylexia ande depression treatements, currently in the form of complex electrical apparatus linked to specific areas of the brain. It is however quite an impactful surgical operation, and it requires a diagnosis for a hard to treat series of symptoms that cannot be dealt with otherwise. It is not exactly that kind of stimulation, more like a “turn on - off” certain neural pathways via electrostimulation, but it is a thing.

    would neuarlink do that?

    I don’t think so as it is mostly a general purpose interface that has its main purpose in human - implant (machine) interaction. But there is a way to stimulate a specific nerve in such a way that you can turn into the personification of horniness itself, I haven’t heard of that in a while tho.



  • Or maybe just reading any text on your TV ever. Say you use an epub reader on your screen because you like reading rhat way. Do these corpo guys even think this will make ads any more effective and likable? The opposite! I’ve been avoid ads ever more and any time I see a new technology to bring ads in any context I leave a little middle finger behind.







  • For a limited amount of time and according to the thermic treatement. Pasteurised milk and dairy should be refrigereated. Similarly, cheese must be set at ~4-8°C temperature range. Also in the EU cheese can be made with regular milk as long as it is processed accordinfly, with many exceptions (there’s abound to be thousands of cheeses in the EU). Sterilised milk (121°C treatement) is labeled as UHT (ultra high temperature) can instead be conserved just fine, and can be used to make cheese if you add a starter microbe to the mix. Milk is frail, whenever it spoils, it smells like no other thing on earth. And it stinks the fridge worse than mercaptanes in a chemistry lab. You ever smelled mercaptanes? It’s an experience




  • I have tried the copilot integration in edge out of curiosity, and if you feed the ai the context of the page the response can be useful. There is a catch, tho:

    • when opening a document the accepted formats are html, txt, pdf. The documentation of a software package can be summarized but thr source will be the context of the page and not a web search, which is good in this casr

    • when generating new information, the model can be far too sintethic, cutting out potentially useful informations.

    I still think you need to read the documentation yourself, maybe using the AI integration only when you need a general idea of the document.

    What I do is first reading the summary of the documebt by bullet point, than reading the pdf file as a whole. By the time I do so, the LLM has given enough of a structure to facilitate my readings…
