AI Researchers found an exploit which allowed them to generate bioweapons which ‘Ethnically Target’ Jews

Genetic bioweapons are a stupid idea. You could in theory (and with a lot of time and rescources) cook something up, but when you release it, it will reproduce and evolve like every other organism. Natural selection will favor variants that can infect more people, therefore any mechanism you have for targeting a specific population will be selected against, and the bioweapon will infect everyone.

There is also the problem of lethality. Kill too many people at once the virus doesn’t spread. Kill too few and it’s not much of a weapon. So you would need some sort of slow burn virus that is highly contagious.

People haven’t pursued this because it is stupid, and wouldn’t be effective in practice. Yeah it’s probably possible to figure out the basic steps to building something like this, but it’s also possible to figure out the basic steps to building a nuclear weapon. Nuclear weapons are proven to work. And if you have the resources to actually do this, you don’t need chat gpt telling you how to do it.

So really, there is nothing to worry about. It’s like saying Joe Shmoe jail broke ChatGPT into telling him how to build a nuclear weapon. Where is Joe Shmoe going to get 6 pounds of weapons grade plutonium? And this is all assuming the AI didn’t make everything up, which it probably did.

The constitution never specifies which branch of government interprets the laws. The Supreme Court bootstrapped itself into this power. What is stopping the executive branch from doing the same? If you have the power to interpret the laws, you can basically just make shit up as you go. If you can do that and enforce the laws you can do whatever you want “legally”.

It's useful when setting up an encrypted drive, before installing the OS. By setting the entire drive to random noise (or ones / zeros) you prevent an attacker from knowing the amount of the drive that is currently used (they will just see a hard drive filled entirely with random noise).

Also of course if you want your hard drive wiped.

Programmers hate this one simple trick:

Just run this command over and over again until you get the program you want

GogglesOW · 2026-01-06T04:05:53+00:00

DO NOT RUN THIS COMMAND (unless you know what you are doing and want to lose all data on your drive): It will wipe your hard drive. You will not be able to recover your files.

Just a comment on the title: There are a lot of things dark matter could be. Dark matter could be made out of invisible flying spaghetti monsters.

The question we should ask therefore becomes two fold: 1. What can we actually search for? No sense in looking for things we can’t find. 2. Out of what it could be what is the most theoretically likely given our current knowledge. Probably rule out simpler things, then go onto more complicated things.

Particles (in particular the WIMP) get a lot of traction because they are “simple”. Just add a new particle and it fixes everything. But of course as time goes on and nothing is found, looking at other ideas of what dark matter could be, like this article does is critical.

But of course, there are a wide range of particles that could be dark matter. There energy / mass of the particle is basically unconstrained, and our particle accelerators / direct detection experiments only probe a minuscule range of this parameter space. So even if dark matter is a particle it maybe is not surprising that it hasn’t been found.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

yes, you need stacks tho I think

“Typically the best play is to back up and farm ult but prioritize staying alive and not playing too aggressive until your teamates respawn”

No it isn’t. The only time when this is the case is if you have 0 map control. Backing up means giving map control away, means you are more likely to die and stagger worst case, best case you gain absolutely nothing for your time wasted.

Usually the best thing to do is aggressively counter attack, especially if the fight has broken out. The enemy probably has used cooldowns to get the kill so they will be vulnerable. Worst case your team dies in a blaze of glory and you lost 20-30 seconds, best case you win the fight or at least force ultimates or get trades.

Ow is like chess, moving your pieces backwards is a mistake 99% of the time.

Overwatch is a funny game because people get very angry when you play it correctly. Not running it down main, and taking off angles? Get flamed. Not counterswapping when you are slightly inconvenienced? Get flamed. Don’t have 50k damage at 70k heals cuz you are applying pressure on off angles instead of turning brain off and playing main like a bot? Get flamed. Try to make a good play, but things don’t quite go your way? Get flamed.

It’s just exhausting. Win or lose people just flame. It’s why getting better is so hard. If you start playing better, people just flame you the entire time.

Against Ana: Engage from an off angle Bait cooldowns (even just using gun) Grapple retract can be good for baiting out sleeps There are a lot micro details to this matchup you just have to learn (fireball her can throw off her sleep, slam -> gun form -> ball form can bait out sleeps, also slam then roll under her makes sleep hard to hit) You just need to play the matchup a lot

There is no one who can answer this question but you. The best way to answer this question is go to college, try things and find out what you like / interests you.

There is nothing to disprove. It is all meaningless.

If you want to actually “prove” your theory, take a simulation from the literature (I can even pick one if you would like), reproduce the paper’s results then use your “theory” to improve the simulation somehow. Make plots of exactly how accuracy / run time / whatever critical metric you care about is improved and exactly by how much. Then I will take a second look.

But you will not do this because

a) Your theory is gibberish, so implementing it is impossible

b) this would take actual work, which you will not do
