@CheckThatBlue@sciam A theory is a working model of the universe supported by an overwhelming body of evidence.
If you can come up with an idea that becomes recognized as "just a theory" you'd be an amazing person.
Hello @nvidia, we developers really need updated versions of the official #jetsonnano OS. We can't run the latest version of #Python, #ROS, #PHP on that thing. Without a current O.S. it's an obsolete #MachineLearning educational tool in the middle of #AI an revolution.
@CNN So many people saying that pointing out the existence of racism is racist or gaslighting. That logic is flawed and keeps actual racists from being held accountable. We remember the past to keep tragedies from repeating themselves.
@SFbrian415 @NPR You do realize this doesn't make big pharma look good? The implications are that people are looking for affordable pharmaceuticals in risky places because prices here in the U.S. are too expensive. Drugs you can't afford, or affordable drugs from questionable sources.
@TriciaEdwards2@bribes_are_ok@GOP Let's experiment on a smaller scale. Become mayor in a town that uses municipal power rather than private power companies and try to cut the power to your political opponents without getting arrested, impeached or losing re-election.
@khobbes10@anothertantrum@mkolken@GavinNewsom@GOP A sign in Tennessee 2018. The wheel of history keeps turning and people keep pulling the same bullshit tactics. Opressing others saying that it's their right to exercise their beliefs.
@BBCWorld What did Rupert Murdoch admit recently? Something about Fox Hosts lying about the results of an certain election. A lie that led to this riot.
@KarlShuve Also it's always been a bad sign throughout history when governments begin interfering in academic discussion. Academics have to show their work to have their ideas taken seriously, but thin skinned politicians don't.
@EPS1991@AuthorDavidSto1 @baad_kittee @RonFilipkowski Activism isn't a lack of patriotism. And patriotism isn't a pissing contest of who shows the most reverence to symbols. People who disagree with you don't hate this country. Activism isn't hating this country. And academia isn't indoctrination.
@PeterDClack@harrywe26805243 Climate varies in those regions because the orbit isn't the only factor. It's like saying my gambling addiction isn't a problem because I have a salary. Greenhouse gasses can be powerful. That's why humid places can be over 100°f when the sun isn't shining. H20 is greenhouse gas.
@GavinNewsom Yeah because there's never that one weird kid in class whose parents keep overlooking their psychopathic tendecies and will hand him a gun just to stick it to the liberals. Yeah he learned gun safety but he doesn't care.
@sophiebushwick@JohnDVillasenor@sciam Technology should enhance our skills rather than render us obsolete. Let's not be like the people who never learned arithmetic because they thought a pocket calculator is smarter than they are. chatGPT should also only be used as an efficiency tool.
@sophiebushwick@JohnDVillasenor@sciam I understand using chatGPT to draft emails that we couldn't be bothered to write ourselves, but essays in school are for developing our ability to think critically, and form informed opinions. We should never cede those skills to any algorithm, or what value do we have as humans?
