How did you determine that it’s a discrete phenomenon? If I present you with another person, how do you determine if they’re conscious or not?

How can you call it absurd when we have no idea what makes something conscious in the first place?

But cleaning the basket vs cleaning a baking tray?

You can store the heat in oil, but how do you transfer it into cooking oil? It’s not like you can store it directly in cooking oil since it breaks down with heat.

I’d be more impressed if you could find someone willing to wade through all that crap.

How and why does this happen? I have more torrents stuck at 99.9% than anywhere else combined.

Plenty of memory addresses to go around with 64gb of RAM. Take your pick.

Mine just want to help, and I’ve been told early on that most kids are like that. Let them help when they want to help, even if they’re making your task harder, and they’ll happily do it when they’re actually capable.

Doesn’t the power of unions come from the employer’s need for human workers? If they don’t need human workers anymore, then what good would a union do?

It’s not an operation. OP is working with a field where {√, 2} is a subset of that field’s elements.

I’m beginning to think the entire tax system was designed by a committee of people who were locked in a room with a calculator and told to make everything as unnecessarily complicated as humanly possible.

There’s a good chance that they chose the simplest method where “simple” means the easiest to understand change set, not the easiest to understand overall system. People usually have an easier time understanding small changes.

Could he? I’m pretty sure that if he tried, we just wouldn’t have a king or governor general anymore.

The web page is probably behind CloudFlare or something similar.

Is she not wearing makeup on both photos? The left is obvious because no one has a face like that, but on the right, that skin tone looks way too uniform to be anyone’s natural skin.

Ah, gotcha. I thought you meant you looked up “whole wheat bread nutrition” and used those results to verify. Not that it would’ve made any more sense to offer that value as an answer since there’s so much variation in what can be considered whole wheat bread.

How is asking an LLM and checking it against public values for nutrition less work than just using the public values in the first place?

Judging by the downvotes, we apparently don’t like seeing questions here.

Flour alone already has enough carbohydrates to feed the yeast. Most basic breads are made with just flour, water, yeast, and salt.

Couldn’t you technically synthesize anything from anything as long as you have all the molecules and don’t care about yield or cost? Trivially, all organic compounds can be broken down into methane, and then reformed into whatever you want. Polystyrene is all carbon though, so you’ll still need a source of nitrogen to get meth.

It’s been over a decade since I’ve taken orgchem, so I don’t know if I’m remembering this stuff correctly.

This very much reads like crackpot conspiracy, but I don’t know enough about any of this to dispute it.

I’ll quote the relevant passages for you. It describes the results from two different studies.

Study #1:

The research found that mean radiant temperature, a measure of the thermal radiation absorbed by the body outdoors, rose by an average of 5.5°F on the coated streets.

Study #2:

It noted […] mean radiant temperature over the [coated] pavement rose about 4°C (7.2°F) at midday
