Multiple people like making every community political and unfocused. It doesn’t change the reality that many communities are unfocused.

This has nothing to do with sticking my head in the sand and everything to do with the post being misclassified.

It’s important news. But it’s incongruent with the expectation people have when they subscribe to a community to learn about science. Did I learn anything about science from the Politico article? No, I learned something about politics.

Everything is affected by politics. Politics is the primary topic of the article. Politico agrees, because it is a publication dedicated to politics.

You are welcome to post content related to scientific research rather than politics in the science community

It is definitely a political article about politics and not about science

I agree with the sentiment, but incessant political rage bait across every single Lemmy community is so exhausting

Politico is not a source of science journalism. They have no “Science” category on their website.

There are plenty of communities to call out the current US administration on its depressing politics. Science is not one of them.

I don’t really want articles from Politico in Science.

I searched for “nitinol cooling system” and found articles dating back to 2016 about the same technology at a German university –

Cool tech, but this recent article lacks substance compared to the older ones. Also interesting that the German team claimed 2x better efficiency than a typical heat pump.

I love this. I think I’m one night away from turning it into screensaver to pair with Chicago95, a la

I don’t see this talked about much anymore, but the day Plex added telemetry in 2017 was the day I became five-alarm desperate for an alternative. Had to wait a 2-3 years with Plex’s telemetry IP’s and domains blacklisted before Jellyfin was mature enough for me to make the change.

How Plex users can be comfortable with any telemetry is beyond me.

Fair point. My original prompt asked for more, but the model wasn’t capable enough. Not sure if the “warp drive” part would be part of any standard algo.

Any ideas on challenges that are new and more fun than the “balls rolling in a hexa-,hepta-,octagon” or “simulate a solar system” prompts everyone’s using these days?

It’s a 4090 using cublas. I just run the stock llama.cpp server with CUDA support. Do you know if there’d be any advantage to building it from source or using something else?

22466MiB / 24564MiB, awesome, thank you!

I’m close to the limit at 23886MiB / 24564MiB of VRAM used when the server is running. I like to have a bit of headroom for other tasks.

But I’m by no means a llama.cpp expert. If you have any tips for better performance I’d love to hear them!

I’m so incredibly tired of weaponized stupidity. First, I had to cringe while I studied science and the internet studied the art of denying reality. Now these dipshits are in charge of the most powerful nation in the world, working tirelessly to remove it from that position.

In the case of his daughter, he believes the hospital should have given her budesonide, a steroid often prescribed for asthma, among other conditions, that has been touted by Kennedy for treating measles. “They didn’t give her the budesonide breathing treatment that we’d been asking for,” Hildebrand said. “They were saying that the IV steroids they were giving her were better.”

Seriously, why even treat these people? Let them treat each other with vibes and ivermectin or whatever

Example?

Isn’t every app that’s not open source assumed to be spyware nowadays?

Wake me up when this sort of thing is actually illegal. Preferably punishable with jail time.

Actually, this is a great idea in principle, because the inverse is possible.

We could use Amazon’s resources for search, then use a browser plug-in to replace the buy button and have it buy the product from somewhere else using an AI agent.

In the decades that people have been screaming about nuclear plants “taking too long to build” stalling progress, we could have built many nuclear plants and significantly reduced emissions.

We’ve kicked the can down the road for far too long. We are well past the point of preventing the devastating impacts of climate change we were warned about 20+ years ago.

If this institute is so convinced wind and solar are the answer, I hope they also have vast amounts of lithium pre-mined or a novel approach to energy storage that isn’t so damaging.
