Thank you for your point of view. Since I have shared the article a lot of tibes myself, it’s nice to take another perspective on it.
I haven’t dived very deep into the research, but from what I have gathered the research did focus on beverages. Whether the alcohol content of a alcohol-free beer also falls into this category and therefore alcohol content in apples must be considered as well, was not conclusive to me. Sure, if fruits reach alcohol levels of average alcoholic beverages I suppose it’s safe to label them as problematic as well. But until then I’d like to avoid reading too much into the research, until it has been clarified whether this really does apply to alcohol levels like in fruits as well.


The WHO did a meta analysis, which is how they came to their conclusion.
The title “No level of alcohol consumption is safe for our health” is slightly misleading though, since they focused on typical alcoholic beverages. There is no statement about alcohol in fruits.
Bottom line:
Drinking even a little bit of <alcoholic beverage> safe? Likely no.
Eating <fruit that contain low amounts of alcohol>: unknown


To be fair, capitalism is inherently incompatible with advancements in robotics and AI. Doesn’t mean the technology is destroying the economics and society. The socio-economic system was already broken to begin with.


Lucky for them to be prominent and not coming from south of the mediterranean sea. Otherwise they would have drowned and nobody would care.


And today another finding in the series: “humans are stupid”.
I have heard it in numerous places. More predominantly in west to north-west states. But I also remember that TV ads have used this term. So I would say it’s used nation-wide.


but enough for that answer to be valid
Highly arguable. Especially without specifications on the lamp. It could be a rather dim and small one. Then, you either need special equipment or supersenses.


Apart from games, where this can also be used for more capabable and behaviourally more “interesting” NPCs (including computer opponents or teammates), the used techniques can be transferred to robotics. Quite a cool architecture.


“Kill switch” is a bit dramatic. It’s an on or off toggle. Would be funny though to call every toggle a kill switch. “Yeah, using the kill switch on GPU acceleration may help with rendering on some systems.”
“Use the kill switch for preventing Firefox of starting a new session without restoring the old tabs.”
“Kill all of your browser data upon exiting Firefox by enabling the kill switch.”
“Make Firefox your default browser by enabling the ‘set as default browser kill switch’.”
Extended to other UI interaction classes: “You don’t like English? Kill it by using the battle royale language selector to choose only the one language you like.”


I do as long as it stays open source.


Yes. But we will have to see whether it’s opt-in or opt-out. This can make quite a significant difference.


I wasn’t talking about (just) the ingredient list in plant based meat alternatives, but rather about food ingredients in general. Seems like I said it in a slightly confusing manner.
My point is: several food items that can be purchased list ingredients that are not easy to understand nor evaluate for a layperson. This is confusing. In contrast, “plant based” labled food is not difficult to understand, imo.


I feel like switching to a 100% non-animal diet just out of protest.
A chemistry degree is required to understand the additives in the ingredient list, but ‘PLANT-BASED sausages/burgers/whatever’ are confusing. Whoever can’t figure that out shouldn’t be allowed to shop without supervision, in my opinion.


The more experience I gain over the years, the more this feels relatable. I had to pull myself together to keep my comments regarding kaputt Nvidia APIs civil in my code and commit messages.
Ah Nvidia. Always a fucking PITA (not the bread kind). I wonder how they have managed to become the most valuable chip manufacturer worldwide.
What is it you are paid to do?
