Seriously Australia, Sovereign Wealth Fund, long overdue.

Cool tech, looks much more versatile than just cancer biomarkers. General reminder that we all get cancers on the regular and our immune systems take care of them, so used unwisely things like this can lead to unnecessary (and profitable) procedures.

Just sends me to substack. Got an archive link?

Hmm, as Ukraine shows, they’ll be mighty handy when the revolution comes ;}

Conversely, the hideous rich have excellent class solidarity.

Yup, but not worthless to their lawyers, so they’re full of weasel words and yet still bind the consumer to horrible conditions. Yay, late stage capitalism.

We’re so damn lucky that LLMs are a dead end (diminishing returns on scaling even after years of hunting) and they just pivoted to the biggest Ponzi scheme ever, bad as that is (and the economic depression it will cause), it pales into insignificance compared with the damage these fucks would do with AGI (or goddess forbid ASI with the alignment they would try to give it).

Hmm, x Doubt. As I understand it mobile providers can locate phones via triangulation of signal strength, which would be independent of the phone OS. The apple blurb says

With this setting turned on, some information made available to cellular networks is limited. As a result, they might be able to determine only a less precise location

Perhaps the OS or the baseband report location to make tracking more effective in the case of only being within range of one or two towers, but those words are pretty weaselly. About the only thing this could do is turn off information apple has already been giving providers, which begs the question, why were they doing that?

On behalf of everyone with aphantasia, no that doesn’t work for me. Sigh. `
