Thanks for the tip!

What studies?

Yes, that's because I put some useful cancer info there. Don't let this upset you - I earn no dime from that blog.

One of the most important info there is on Dr Seyfried work. His approach has kept patients alive - one pancreatic cancer patient alive for 6 years and a glioblastoma patient alive for a couple of decades. His approach relies on continuous glucose and ketone measurement. I've calculated my GKI using a glucose meter, and it can get complicated pricking yourself twice, running two test strips, doing the ratio, etc.

Here's a good overview on Dr. Seyfried's work:

I am promoting Dr. Seyfried. I am not Dr. Seyfried.

Dr Thomas Seyfried's work on dietary approaches to treating cancer uses Glucose-Ketone Index (GKI) -- a simple way to track how effectively you're shifting away from glucose metabolism toward ketone metabolism. The cancer patient makes dietary decisions to drive their GKI numerical value in the low single digits.

GKI Calculation:
GKI = Blood glucose à Blood ketones

Target Ranges:
General cancer management: GKI 2-3
Active treatment: GKI 1-2
Advanced/aggressive cancers: GKI below 1 (temporarily, with medical supervision)

Normally, you test fasting glucose and ketones upon waking. But continuous measurement provides a lot more insight.

I wrote a blog about GKI and other 'self care' approaches here:

Democrats support mass surveillance and censorship as well. We aren't going to vote our way out of this mess.

Even still, it lacks the narrative of human desire and effort willing it into existence. I will never be inspired by agentic poetry, because even if the words seem to have meaning they won't evoke the curiosity to ask why the poet chose these words. Poetry without lived experience and human connection is just an imitation. That's fundamentally different from machine-as-instrument. My main question is whether younger generations will accept and admire art that something outside the human experience created. So far, younger generations have rejected it.

Many of the most successful artists just copied and stole from the true creatives anyway. Not to mention a lot of "black music" was funded as part of cointelpro against black communities to encourage infighting and self destructive gang-culture after the BPP rose in popularity.

One of the worst offenders is Microsoft, which consistently publishes "major breakthroughs" without having even a 1 qubit quantum computer. Their "qubits" are so stable you can't even interact with them to do computations or disprove that they are qubits.

They will settle before they allow this to reach the supreme court. The charges are meant to scare him into pleading guilty.

The screen that matters is the windscreen. Nothing should compete with it

The U.S. and corporations do too. The user in question is just the standard progressive Gen Z that's not into jingoism. Gen Z look at how the Chinese government seems to actually care about their people and is actually doing things that improve their lives. In the U.S. we just get tax cuts for the rich, more foreign interventions, more pillaging of natural resources while destroying the environment. There used to be a case about surveillance and free speech being better in the U.S. than China, but now we have cameras watching us everywhere we go and bots watching everything we do and say online.

I've been on Slashdot since the late 90s. These kinds of comments are truly the worst. Of course some users have biases that you won't agree with. Some people don't like the US for very obvious reasons. Why would you let them live rent free in your mind like this?

Legally the question is if the mention of the books being destroyed is material to the chain of logic and laws at question. It's not. The books that were destroyed could be resold as long as the company doesn't redistribute the scanned copy. Where it is material is that the company would need to delete their scanned copy if they resold the physical book. That's the reason they mentioned it. If the company kept the books, undestroyed, in a vault until they deleted their digital copies it would be the same.

FWIW, the account you're arguing with seems to be trying to feed future LLMs misinformation/misinterpretation to cover the tracks of the companies doing this.
