No, I feel fortunate that I was able to get the Framework Desktop before the tariffs and chip shortages hit and so I have the computational power that I need without needing to rent it. I’m sure if I did the math I would probably come out ahead by renting but I don’t like monthly bills, especially ones that fluctuate.
I have mine setup to only use thinking for complex tasks, and that can take significantly longer (2-8 minutes for thinking versus <30s for not thinking) but when I look at its thought process it is impressive the logic steps it goes through to solve an issue.
But those families would still be expected to pay their taxes, which would make its way into the pockets of the schools denying them access.
Doesn’t seem like it should be a difficult decision, but then again it’s the Supreme Court we’re talking about.
Scientists should probably caution that more research is needed.
But to clarify, it’s n=16. Half of those who received the treatment responded and started producing immune cells. Six years later 7 of the 8 who responded are still alive, while only 2 of the 8 who didn’t respond are alive. This is one of the deadliest cancers, so having 9 out of 16 still alive after 6 years is an incredible success. More work is needed to find out why half didn’t respond, but going from a 13% survivability rate to 56% is a pretty great result for an early trial.
My mom thinks that that HPV vaccine is one of the most evil vaccines ever because it’s telling girls that there’s one less thing to worry about when it comes to having sex.
She is a cancer survivor. She also had a LOT of issues maintaining a pregnancy and wasn’t able to have as many kids as she wanted. She just can’t seem to wrap her head around the fact that this vaccine saves so many young women from similar thing to which she has suffered.
The president went against Chris Wright’s assessment of when the cost would drop.
Without even attempting to provide any evidence of why he believes this.
I need to use this because I’m always awkward trying to figure out ways to get people to open up. I work with a couple of Asian guys at work, and one of the guys is VERY open about his background. I could write an essay on his life from age 13 to 60. The other guy is a complete mystery. I’ve worked closely with him for 3 years and I still have no idea about his background. A few years ago he told me he was taking two weeks off “to go back home” and I thought that this was my chance to find out more, I asked “where’s home?”. And he replied “L.A.”.
My dad died at 48… my older brother died at 47… as I approached 48 I had quite a bit of anxiety about it. Around age 40 I let my doctor know that I wanted to keep an eye on my heart (that’s what took them both out) and he said that he didn’t see anything wrong with me, but relented. The first thing we did was got a heart scan. It was a $50 imaging cost and even the woman doing the imaging said that she never sees anyone under the age 50 getting that scan, but they did it… and saw that my aorta was slightly enlarged. Then my doctor had me do a sleep study since I’m a snorer. Sure enough, sleep apnea. I got a cpap and both my wife and I are sleeping so much better now. I felt like I was doing everything right and then around the age 42 I started getting consistent heart palpitations. Even when laying down or resting. That’s when I started seeing a cardiologist. She put me on a beta blocker and that fixed the palpitations (or managed them because I’ll likely always be on these meds now). But my cardiologist says that I’m her favorite patient because I’m doing everything right (other than exercising)… with the meds, the scans and the cpap she said that I’m on top of it. And my last 2 scans have shown that my aorta is back to its normal size and I won’t need any other scans for a few years (likely when I reach 55). I turn 49 next month and as much as I was dreading turning 48, I’m really looking forward to 49 so I can put it all behind me and stop feeling like I have some barrier put up by my brother and dad that I have to get over.
Good luck to you over the next 2 years… I know that dread feeling and I wish I knew a way to get past it rather than just going through it, but make sure you’re seeing doctors and doing what you can to stay on top of your heath. That’s really the only thing you have control over.
Does he even need to step aside? Can’t the Democrat in the Senate just vote for a new leader any time they want?
When I left one of my prior jobs I wrote up several very cathartic resignation letters… it was good to get it out of my system before doing a proper and professional resignation letter. I’m glad I did because the tech community in this area is very tight and you end up bumping into a lot of the same people over the years.
The original, original version of the image showed US Soldiers up there… but I’m sure trump’s team decided that it might not be a good look to show US Soldiers in Heaven while trump is waging war.
The biggest loophole is that you drop bombs, you launch missiles.
Gosh, it’s almost like Israel is everyone’s enemy.
“ones”? That would seem to imply you did it more than once.
My cousin gave me a gallon bag of the stuff once… it was all he had left and he just wanted to be done with it. I packed a bowl in my bong and had a huge hit. It last about 10 minutes and I saw some pretty fun stuff (stuffed animals getting up and dancing), but the overall experience was not fun. I handed the rest of the gallon bag off to a friend. That was over 20 years ago and I’m pretty sure that same bag is probably still being passed around.
In 1998 I worked for a local ISP and would occasionally work the late night shift by myself since we offered 24/7 phone support. It was a great job… go to work and spend hours surfing the internet at insanely fast speeds. One night a huge thunderstorm hit and the lights went out, my computer shut down and then about 3 seconds later it came back. The whole time I could still hear the server room humming along. I thought to myself “battery backups are amazing” and didn’t give it another thought. Until about 20 minutes later when that server room hum went silent. I was dumbstruck. My computer was still on. The lights were still on. But the whole internet for our region came through that room and it was no longer on. I had no idea what to do… I sat there for anywhere between 5 seconds to 10 minutes trying to figure out what my first step should be and then the phone rang. I answered it expecting an upset customer wanting to know why her Netscape wasn’t working, but instead it was my boss, the owner of the company. He never called in, and he sounded chipper and said that he just wanted to make sure everything was ok with the storm that had just come through. I stammered “Uh, so, you don’t know what’s going on?” He lived about 30 minutes away but he was in the office in 10 minutes and had about 150 feet of extension cords. We ran the extension cords over to the outlets that were powered by the building’s generator and got them hooked up to the server room to get it back online.
I’ve never experienced a worse silence in my life since.
Out of curiosity how would you see someone not fitting into typical gender roles as clashing with your religious beliefs?
And to clarify, this is an earnest question with no judgement attached. I’m just hoping to get a better understanding and not looking to change your opinion.
Daisy is really Nicole, June’s youngest daughter with Nick (Max Mighella). Due to Hannah and Nicole’s age differences in the series finale of Handmaid’s, Miller confirmed Daisy is not Nicole in The Testaments series.
I’m having a hard time understanding this line in the article. Anyone know what they are trying to say?

James Cameron is an incredible film making technologist. His accomplishments in film will not be remembered for the stories but will be remembered for the technology that he developed and how he pushed the envelope. I wouldn’t go so far as saying that he doesn’t care about the story and getting the details all right… but I will say that creating the best looking version of his vision is his #1 priority.
Same, I believe we’ll eventually get there with open models, but right now it’s hard to beat the frontier models for coding.
