That whole article Stat10 article is a lie. The amyloid hypothesis is strong and based on a lot of evidence, there is strong evidence of amyloid involvement from DECADES before 2006 and after it. There was a paper in 2006 that was fraudulent, but that dealt with a particular oligomer AB*56 that was made-up and nobody else confirmed even existed. The 2006 paper claimed that AB*56 was one of the amyloids that caused Alzheimer's --- that's all it did. The amyloid hypothesis was strong before that paper and remains strong after. The active area of research is which types of amyloid fibrils or pre-fibrils (there are many) cause the problems.

From this reference: https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/...

[That study] "represents a small area of amyloid research and an even smaller area of dementia research. Although these allegations are a concern, there is a huge amount of credible research evidence behind the amyloid protein’s role in the diseases which cause dementia."

"Apart from the research in question, there remains a vast amount of robust scientific evidence, which supports the view of amyloid contributing to Alzheimer’s disease."

Editing a photo solely with voice only will become annoying very quickly, it has to be done in coordination with touch .. then it would be good.

What social contract? I sure as hell don't recall signing one. The only thing I recall is the Pledge of Allegiance, which says nothing about an obligation to provide jobs. That's not to say I don't care, I'm saying I'm not obligated .. there's a difference.

Tax the profits of automation to provide a safety net to the public, but don't slow down progress by requiring human labor to do that which can be automated.

How do you clean room reverse factual information? Like what happened in a certain book or movie.

..if you get a Canadian passport cover for it.

If they knew it had flaws and sat on it, that's sue-worthy.

There was a kid in my middle school, he had a pet goat. Every essay he wrote was about that damn goat. Finally, the teacher had enough and told him to write an essay about a tree. So his essay was started off "There was a big tall tree, and under that tree my goat played. That goat was an awesome goat who .. " etc. and thus he made his essay about his God damn goat.

Was that kid you? Did your stupid goat get run over by a capitalist? Because every fucking comment you write twists everything into we should become communists.

Where would anyone be if we couldn't learn from and utilize the work of others. How would it be possible to calculate the hypotenuse of a right-triangle if nobody was allowed to infringe on Pythagorus' patent? I should be allowed to encode my knowledge into a computer. If not, then no CAD program is legal because the CAD programmer used ideas from various textbooks.

The ships and lives at Pearl Harbor were irreplaceable treasures too. AI is too important for the world, Japan can't expect to make money off manga/anime forever. Americans made the first transistor, but the world makes them. We didn't even try to block that. At some point an invention, after the inventor has squeezed a reasonable benefit, becomes public domain (and that means Japanese too benefit from it). The reason is all inventions are based on prior inventions of others worldwide in some way.

Good. I rather they focus on one. I mean, I doubt they'll even get that right.

It's when there's a dynamic transformation manifesting in a paradigm realignment.

The AI is in charge now. Not only the editors, but the readers and commenters are all AI. Soon the ads will be geared towards AI too, you'll see offers for free or discounted tokens if you click it.

How does it compare to the $20 Billion the world's biggest suckers (aka US taxpayers) just under-the-radar gifted Argentina for a having a MAGA president who fucked up their economy?

*last sentence got scrambled, fucking AI

4 years is a lot of time to hold on to an ancient PC (most likely you have a 10+ year old computer if it doesn't meet windows 11 spec.) Ok, let's say you can't upgrade because you fell on hard times-- it happens to everyone .. then switch to Linux for fuck's sake. I don't see why Microsoft has to keep supporting 4 year old shit especially if it still works. I wouldn't hook it up a Windows 10 PC internet though that's irresponsible/negligent like walking into a public place without a COVID mask.
