Ditto. They barely last 12 mos. This goes for both types: LED Light Chips (Strips) and LED String Lights from various manufacturers.

AI models are just complex mathematical functions/software and they do not have the capability to access, modify, or control computer systems or networks. There are technical boundaries and I doubt the team at OpenAI just let the AI ha

I don't know why you got voted down. I am also skeptical about this bold claim because AI models are just complex mathematical functions/software and they do not have the capability to access, modify, or control computer systems o

Mouthwash kills the good bacteria as well. Better off using chips gum to stimulate natural saliva which helps in reducing bad bacteria.

I like to think of a virus like code. It’s nothing more than a series of instructions in a file that, when executed (by the cell), does something. Is code complex enough to be called life?

This is great. How is "disputed" calculated? (hopefully not news babble but another paper disputing it?)

Step 1. VD3 blood test is a must to determine whether one is deficient. If you work indoors all day there is a high chance you are deficient. Your GP can help you boost it up using 70K IU prescription VD3. Step 2. Then maintenance. This is

A lot of folks aren’t open to change and see change and experiments as frightening yielding biased conclusions. It’s fine to have opinions but drawing bold conclusions is best done with factual data over a longer time horizons.

Spot on. A Product (which most engineers can hack together) shouldn't be confused with a Business.

I heard that one way to check quality is to look at the type of capacitors used on the board. Capped are cheap and don’t last long (they have a vent on top) and when they blow they spread white residue on the board. The solid capacitors don

Brilliant design. A forcing function to take a break; even tho it's only ~4 times per year it's better than changing batteries every 2 weeks.

I wouldn't call it arbitrary sequence, it's a specific sequence ie. s protein for covid. Saying that, it's now a known cause of blood clotting in some recipients: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/

I’m not talking about inactivation with formaldehyde. If they did that in the viral vector it would disable the delivery mechanism (adenovirus).

Yikes. Sorry to hear this procedure didn't go as you hoped. For me I tried radiofrequency at PAMF but it only lasted about a year before my nasal issues returned and I ended up getting septoplasty with turbinate reduction. For me it wa

Replication-incompetent adenoviral vectors? Lex Fridman had a virologist on his podcast talking about the mutations done to the adenovirus to make it safe for the delivery of the s-protein (used in viral vector J&J + AstraZ vax). Maybe

So first you denounce my statement then you agree with it (around vaccines)? I’m comparing RNA based viruses not diseases. If the keyword “flu” offends you because you think I’m comparing it to the flu then replace it with any RNA based vir

I have been following this mess. I’m an Aussie in CA. Even when a vaccine is available it’s not going to be 100% effective. Contrast it to another RNA based virus (but faster mutating) like influenza. The annual shot effectiveness fluctuate
