  • Clarification, google (and amazon) are giving anthropic acces to some of their chips (compute).

    This mirrors Microsofts funding in openai, which was mostly just azure credit.

    Same thing with ai companies investing with free generation tokens.

    These companies aren’t providing money just sharing some resources that they would otherwise exploit for profit.

    They are giving each other monopoly money blow jobs and the result is headlines and securing coordinated market domination.








  • The most important factor that decides if a child is born autistic is the genetic makeup of the parents.

    But autism as we know it is just a collection of specific clinically observed neurodivergent traits. It’s not just one thing and slightly different traits can also fall in the categories adhd, bipolar, or a different kind not medically acknowledged form of “being different”

    What is also known is that the sperm of older men carries more mutations, some of those could result in neurodivergent traits that the parents themselves not have. Its reasonable that its similar with the eggs of older women.

    Based on this i think we can conclude that older parents have a higher chance on getting children that have one or more neurodivergent traits on top of the neurodivergent traits that where already normally inherited (i believe most normal people also have at least a few minor neurodivergent pathways in their brain that makes them unique, hence “everyone has a little autism” while its no way comparable in practice)

    How those unique mutations manifest and will be perceived by the medical community (within normal unique or named disability) is impossible to say, some minor neurodivergent traits can even end up being beneficial.







  • Ok thats fairly interesting but the line break does still seem to matter or none of the sentences make any sense.

    In case i am just stupid, could you please explain how to read the sentence where the word is used in

    If i read it like this then this is what i get, which reads like nonsense,

    "It is a strange fact, perhaps; but we do saw cockroaches running along the tester of not know anything, or scarcely anything, as to the bed, but, to his great astonishment, he the kind of people and tradesmen who purpositively observed one of them seize a bug, chase our poison-to speak the truth, we do and he therefore concluded, and not without not like to make too many inquiries of our some show of reason, that the cockroach customers.

    But if i read each side on its own i do get 2 very readable sentences.

    “Still he pursued his nocturnal investigations, and he not only saw cockroaches running along the tester of the bed, but, to his great astonishment, he positively observed one of them seize a bug, and he therefore concluded, and not without some show of reason, that the cockroach ascended the curtains with this especial object, and that the more odoriferous insect is a favourite food of the major one.”

    On the left, and

    "It is a strange fact, perhaps; but we do not know anything, or scarcely anything, as to the kind of people and tradesmen who purchase our poison-to speak the truth, we do not like to make too many inquiries of our customers.”

    On the right.
