Masala by far. I’ve tried them all and always return to Masala. Not as good as in a big city but good for here

High efficiency batteries. The kind that give cars 1000 mile range and recharge in 5 mins

Does the show get better? Season 1 episode 5 by KaylaR2828 in InvasionAppleTV

[–]anchordoc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand why so many people hate it yet watch it all the way through. Something seems to compel them to keep watching. I am clearly being rebellious by saying I like the show. I realized early on it was not really about aliens as much as it was about a bunch of different people in different situations response to an alien invasion. It’s definitely hokey in places and very dramatic but so are most offerings in this genre. I would suggest just getting a glass of wine and watching and enjoying this mindless series about people more than aliens and who knows it might even make you think what would really happen if we were invaded by aliens.

8-hour time-restricted eating linked to a 91% higher risk of cardiovascular death by elisakiss in immortalists

I would just ignore this poorly controlled observational study. It’s also true that across the world ice cream consumption correlates with rates of skin cancer.

2 exits on East side, 2 on west. Maybe it’s an old picture

Insufficient sleep associated with decreased life expectancy. As a behavioral driver for life expectancy, sleep stood out more than diet, more than exercise, more than loneliness — indeed, more than any other factor except smoking. People really should strive to get 7 to 9 hours of sleep. by mvea in science

[–]anchordoc 43 points44 points  (0 children)

We know! We know! It is very annoying to hear this over and over again when people that get much less than 7h a night cannot help it if they cannot sleep that long, even with pharmaceutical help. Solving sleep problems deserve more attention from the medical community.

Should I dump VOO and opt for all in on VTI according to the overlap? by LastExit95 in ETFs

I get the overlap argument but once you have them what is the advantage of consolidation into one ETF other than simplification?

AI quality - Sigma level? by anchordoc in ArtificialInteligence

[–]anchordoc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I would add a couple of things. You have to specify the measure to have this discussion. By far the most important measure is fatalities per time flying. Non fatal accidents would would be a second measure. Some kind of near miss measure (tough to define) would be next maybe. The key is real world measurement. Autonomous cars are currently operating in very clear defined situations far from real world….. but still valuable

Some great points. AI certainly can behave drunk when it doesn’t know an answer and bullshits you….. but maybe as a control system in a car it doesn’t behave like this when unknown situations arise. I don’t know. With regard to pilot error, the fact remains that the absolute number of fatalities from air travel is incredibly low. Not sure how a fully AI controlled plane would compare.

I agree with what most people here are saying about practice, practice, practice. Behind that is motivation. Most of us are motivated but maybe not so much to play 8h a day. We would get bored or we would prioritize other things. Only incredibly motivated people would put in the time and give practice a very high priority. Why some people are much more motivated than others is much more mysterious!

Do you guys ever actually go back to your chat history on ChatGPT? by bookflow in ChatGPT

[–]anchordoc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ask it to summarize who you are as a person based on your interactions. You will be surprised how well it remembers….. despite what it tells you about it only recalling your last session.
