Comment As a biologists (Score 1, Interesting) 13

I worked in protein design for a few years as a project scientists. Thinking that just reading literature text will help you is grossly naive. Most literature is wrong (but we dont know which ones) and the rest is only comprehensible when properly interpreting the manuscripts figures.

I looked at all these ai generated protein folds, and for the simple cases these were correct. However most proteins come in complexes and there the prediction were not above random noise

So good luck salesforce, you will come up with a buch of leads and then burn your money during validation tests when you find out its a leeeeetle more complex than your computer nerds make you believe

Comment memory (Score 1) 73

the base price looks good, but I understand that the memory is shared between cpu and gpu. So adding some memory would be good. But the version with 16GB memory is over double the price of the 8GB version.
In my experience, running MSTeams on 8GB is an ordeal

Thanks. Indeed I try to avoid amazon. So if I understand you correctly, the issue is not so much that a result is sponsored, but that the result is not relevant to your request? I agree that would suck, I'm just not seeing it. I have ublock and ghostery running, but I do not expect that to influence these adds?

anyway, thanks for clarifying

Comment I'm seeing cat beds.. (Score 1) 106

So TFA suggests I test using "cat beds". When I do this, I get a bunch of cat beds to choose from. To me it is not obvious that these are "ads". Surely amazon is not a search engine but a store. I would expect them to push the items that makes them most money first ( == their own brand). Am I not understanding something?

The main psychoactive component of cannabis, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), is excreted into breastmilk in small quantities. The duration of detection of THC in milk has ranged from 6 days to greater than 6 weeks in various studies. Concern has been expressed regarding the possible effects of cannabis on neurotransmitters, nervous system development and endocannabinoid-related functions.[1,2] A 1-year study found that daily or near daily use might retard the breastfed infant's motor development, but not growth or intellectual development

Comment he had ample chance (Score 4, Insightful) 206

up till now he mostly gave it away to himself and his insanely expensive hobbies, screwing up the planet even further.
How about he starts "giving away" by paying his workers a decent wage so they do not need to be on government-subsidized food stamps? Or is that too socialist?

If he was a decent man he would not have this issue.

Well sure, but then when I read the other story of today ("France Fines Clearview AI Maximum Possible For GDPR Breaches"), the sentiment among americans is rather different: The top-rated comment states that France has no jurisdiction despite that French citizens are effected (so the "action" is in France). According to you then it is actionable in France
