If we just redirected all the solar energy from the flock cameras back into the grid we could power the average American home for 2 whole milliseconds!
I am not totally sold on the argument that Natural Selection's merit function is purely to maximize offspring. It is trivial to come up with examples where that is a bad strategy. For example the smaller a herbivores ecosystem, the less they reproduce. A species which reproduced at the rate of locusts but only ate rare amazonian berries would very quickly drive the berry to extinction and then itself. So a more accurate "goal" for natural selection might be to maximize long term, stable, populations of offspring.
This ends up being kind of important, since it starts to explain behavior which otherwise doesn't make sense in the short term. E.g. It has been shown quite convincingly that altruism is a heritable trait in genetic systems. Essentially, even if X% of your tribe has the "altruism gene" it can be beneficial in the long term for that gene if you die heroically protecting your tribe.
So I think there might be a convincing argument there that if natural selection / evolution is pushing us towards stable long term offspring population. If so then our sub goals may not be that far off from optimal.
How the fuck do you get that? We already have studies from the ISS which investigate the role of gravity in bacteriophage infections, which may be used to develop advanced anti-bacterial drugs
But SaveTheTuaHawk knows better than all those microbiologists don't they
Good reminder that I need to clear out a bunch of excessive formatting for the next blogpost I am writing.
I am a massive headings and bullet point use in AI defender. Specifically because when I ask AI a question I am not looking for writing, I am looking for an answer to my question, or a walk-through/procedure how to do things, and in both cases heavily formatted text is the easiest to parse and read non-sequentially.
As for why I think I have a bad formatting addiction, I am tempted to partially blame it on my reading, which is largely academic texts, where everything is heavily formatted. I think this is the case for similar reasons. Considering that most of the scientists I know do not read a paper from beginning to end and instead go Figures->Captions->Conclusions->Intro->Theory->Results (or some similar order)
So anyway, disordered reading is another argument for lots of formatting
A lot of people giving good advice at how to become good at cooking. I will give advice at how to coom at a bare minimum level.
Pasta
Boil according to Pavket instructions, add jar of sauce. You have cooked a totally legit meal. Consider leveling it up by adding cooked meat/vegetables to the sauce. E.g. fry bacon, chop it and add it in. Mix in spinach leaves.
Pizza
Buy a pre-made pizza base, cheese, "pizza sauce" and your favorite toppings. Assemble and put in the oven for like 20 minutes. Topping ideas include all cold meats, e.g. pepperoni, whatever vegetables you like, e.g. capsicum, and anything from the jarred food aisle. E.g. olives, artichoke, eggplant.
Chicken
Buy Chicken breast, buy a spice mix which looks nice, buy a thermometer. Coat the chicken in the spice and cook at 180 degrees C until the temperature inside the chicken reads safe (often the number is printed on your thermometer, or just Google it) this might take ~20 minutes
You can eat this with a salad you also bought, chop it up and add to tomorrow's pasta, or to sandwiches, on a pizza base.
egg and rice
Cook rice according to packet instructions, fry an egg. Add on your favorite chilli sauce. I go through a jar of Chilli Crisp (Lau Gan Ma) every two weeks thanks to this one.
I would put it down less to a nerfarous evil plan, where some exec DECLARES "I will string people along for more money MWUHAHAHAHA" to the the reason to purposely make things worse. I don't think that fully excuses them though
They absolutely use some kind of engagement maximizing algorithm in their matching algo, and use engagement metrics in their A/B tests, and with these two forces, no one needs ot make the decisions to enshittify, the decisions are made for leadership.
I would pose one argument for why "good" competitors don't exist. is that anyone else following modern business practices will fall into the same solution without making a single decision other than to follow best practice (and iff they choose to eschew data driven decision making then they are fumbling around in the dark and unable to improve)
First decision is if you want a resin printer or FDM printer. Resin let's you get smaller details, but has less dimensuonal accuracy and less options for engineering material.
In practice this means that if you want to make highly detailed descriptive parts. E.g. figurines, jewlery, etc go resin. If you want to build functional parts, latches, anything that moves, or anything that is big go FDM
From your description it sounds like you want FDM
My only experience with FDM is BambuLab which gets called "The Apple of 3D printers" for better and worse. I can personally say they work fantastic, and "tuning and maintainance" of the machine is almost non-existant. HOWEVER there is a little proprietary schenanigans going on. Their system is still open for now, but people worry because hypothetically in the future they might take functionality away or something. (There is a long and boring list of controversies which could be a deal breaker or nothing burger based on your preferences. For me I find it an okay tradeoff for the performance)

Think of the savings!
If it has too much hibiscus AND too much sugar. Did you consider adding more water?

idk, more analysis needed lol
Mostly to make it look less ugly. Herbs would be a plus, but not the main requirement
Yeah, about three hours.
The aim is to make it look like less ugly mostly. So herbs and ornamentsls
I have previously tried basil and mint before, but I don't think the basil ever got as much light as it wanted. (Or it could be beginners skill-issue)
The big I'll be on the right I often grow spring onions and chives in since they seem to be happy there year round
Yeah, everyone knows the key to popular Revolution is a small collection of insular ML reading groups /s

The world doesn't have enough supply of organs for transplant
We cannot grow synthetic organs on earth because complex tissue collapses under its own weight during the growing process on earth
Space has much lower gravity. We might be able to grow synthetic organs there.
When I'm old and my Grandkids can get full organ transplants with kidneys grown on the moon, I just might thank the Artemis missions.
Sir, this is Lemmy. All we are allowed to do here is
complaincritiqueGod you people are insufferable
Get ready for the tankies and other assholes to scare off all the new users again :D

At the bottom of the page is the recipe. Although specialized equipment necessary is a bit of an understatement
Thankyou :D
