The inner circle is a dot
  • Nah, that's great because you can so easily escalate to heavy talk. Disagree with the political opinion. Insist car culture is just pointless fashion fads. Dive into the morality of reality TV.

    Either they disengage and you're free, or you get to have an actual meaningful debate instead of echoing hollow platitudes.

  • Autism
  • Scientific papers are often titled "What it's actually about: something witty." This one is about object personification and so after the colon they personify the paper itself by giving it an emotion.

  • Twenty-nine research teams analyzed the same data, and they all reached different results.
    1. the whole point of statistics is to extract subtle signals from noise, if you're getting wildly different results, the problem is you're under-powered.

    Thanks for taking the time to post these links, just letting you know you're efforts have benefited at least one person who's gonna enjoy reading this.

  • Check out this time-saving lifehack
  • You say you stand up right away because you've been jammed into your seat for hours, so I'm wondering why you didn't stand up during the flight. Then you wouldn't be jammed in for hours...

  • Just a reminder. Needed lately, it seems.
  • Phew, lucky that there's no disagreement in this society about what right and wrong is and what should and shouldn't be tolerated. Otherwise we might devolve into two antagonistic political factions mutually condemning each other.

  • Okay, how do you assess that harm has occurred?

    I claim that your post just harmed me. You should be excluded from the social contact.

    You violated the rules my god laid down. Harmful to me and all my fellow believers. You're out.

    Your flagrant homosexuality is harming my children. Excluded.

    Your campaign to take away my guns is harming me and all my descendants. I was just minding my own business until you came along with your intolerant gun removal policies. Excluded! Burn him.

    This only solves the dilemma in a trivial way, if harm is transparent and uncontentious. It doesn't address the real dilemma, which is widespread disagreement about what should and shouldn't be tolerated.

  • How many of you are using ChatGpt to help you with your work, and not telling your boss/co-workers?
  • A friend of mine just used it to write a script for an Amazing Race application video. It was quite good.

    How the heck did it access enough source material to be able to imitate something that specific and do it well? Are we humans that predictable?

  • Study links long-term artificial sweetener intake to increased body fat adipose tissue volume
  • They have a pretty detailed discussion section. The main hypothesis they support, based on plenty of other evidence, is that these drugs increase appetite. They motivate you to eat more calories, even though they contain fewer calories themselves.

  • Study links long-term artificial sweetener intake to increased body fat adipose tissue volume
  • What!? That makes no sense.

    They saw an association between sweetener intake and change in fat over 25 years. Not relative to the population, relative to their past selves. How would a weight loss tool increasing your body fat over 25 years be obvious?
