Was confused by their post too. Not to mention, generics typically say that they’re trying to replicate xyz extended release or xyz extra strength.

Generic meds vs brand meds.

Brands pay a lot for branding, and thus charge more. The formulas are moderated and regulated by the FDA, so unless you enjoy paying for ads, get the generic.

I feel like ai art is getting better and better. I’m not necessarily interested in it, but when art/food/pet pics pop up on my feed, I was never looking for them either.

I think it’s normal to hide them, but to feel bothered seems a bit drastic.

I’d imagine some sort of NIST to maintain a standard would make it more expensive, which would result in people looking for their local dealers again.

I was in the same boat. Selenium with gecko driver was a pretty simple swap, just needed to Ctrl f replace a few things.

Because Google’s med palm 2 is a medically trained chatbot that performs better than most med students, and some med professionals. Further training and refinement using new chatbot findings like mixture of experts and chain of thought are likely to improve results.

Why stop at Europe, no one is immune, they just have the most famous framework.

You’re right, why fight when we get a fascist Russian puppet for free and a president who literally uses Nazi rhetoric to boost his ratings.

At least if we protest, we can either get off this fucking ride or break the machine.

Not sure of your means, but we can boycott. Organizations like Trader Joe’s and Aldi are a bit cheaper than their competitors while offering also using different sources. Likewise organizations like H Mart or your local farmers market source locally, giving the middle finger to Tyson (who claims inflation and profits) and Kellogs (who uses shrinkflation to claim profits). Obviously this doesn’t work for everyone, but I think the majority of city dwellers can make these moves. This also is a fuck you to any local grocery stores trying to do the same bullshit (Walmart).

In the same vein, and what I’ve done, alternative meal companies have come A LONG way. The company Huel has a instant noodles, pasta, and candy bars that are macro balanced with vitamins and nutrients all for about $5/meal. I know most people will skip this, but they’re actually really good. Mac N Cheese, pasta Bolognese and Cajun pasta have actually gotten me to go mostly vegan. There’s another one called Outstanding Foods that has cheese puffs, cookies and pork rinds that are macro balanced and delicious as well. My daily meals are often some pasta like Mac N Cheese, one of the Huel shakes (I have a ninja creami so this is ice cream in the summer), and coffee mocha cookies, and another shake. That’s 1800 calories with balanced macros and vegan that I didn’t have the really cook or think about. If I’m working out, I swap the last shake for a protein shake.

And if this sounds dystopian to you.

I anecdotally got into a CEO data conference, where leaders were discussing strategy and tactics. Biggest topic of the day was, why can’t I track how many times someone sees my physical store/billboard/sign and makes a decision. Geofencing + your cellphone GPS isn’t accurate enough for these guys, they want to know how long you stared at the store, what made you move in, what demographics you belong to, and how can they maximize your likelihood to purchase more stuff.

Why does this matter? People are more likely to buy more stuff in a store wandering around than on a market place where they just swap tabs to get the same thing from somewhere else.

If I can make my store front like temu to get you in and keep you there, then it’s likely you’ll be interested in buying more stuff you didn’t know you wanted.

I’m sure their adoption rate looks like, does the user use the autostart software when the start the car? Yes? Wow, using our software really is amazing.

Now what about the optional Android auto software? No? Pft, we have 100% adoption vs 50% (assuming 50% of users use Android).

Sounds a bit like the recent exploit for saying a word forever. I wonder how long until these break down and start spewing their source code.

Not just that, he used star link to manage international relations by suddenly stopping service for Ukraine.

He’s a “free speech abolitionist” and egotistical megalomaniac that’s willing lie about deliverables and take illegal actions because there’s been no punishment.

Here’s punishment.

It’s probably on claim submission.

My company operates as an LTC pharmacy. We pay for every claim submission whether reject or success.

I was on the phone the other day with my pharmacy (optum) and they did a “test” claim which was free for them. I know optum owns the pharmacy, insurance, and pbm, but either their abusive their vertical integration or they have an “ai” to test claims.

No I didn’t. I’m praising governments willing to stand of for their people. I’m responding to someone else that said the government works for the people and I said that’s not how the US works. Governments don’t always work for the people, sometimes they bend the knee for corporations.

That’s not how the us works

This isn’t just people standing up for themselves. This is governments protecting people.

They mentioned this was patched in chatgpt but also exists in llama. Since llama 1 is open source and still widely available, I’d bet someone could do the research to back into the weights.

How many fanfics have been written about Amazon q time traveling and warning us from the future?

Just bought an EV from a local dealer. Went in on Saturday because they had a 2 month used listing on their website for about 10k under MSRP. They told me, oh no that sold, but please check out the new cars. I entertained them and told them they’d need to bring down the price 10k to get me to sign because it’s simply out of my price range. They also mentioned these things (ioniq 6) are selling extremely quickly and they only have a few on the lot.

They insisted and played games for a week, with offers OVER msrp, so I let them waste their time. They pushed me to come in, so as I was about to sign, I told them, actually, no. I need an offer 10k under MSRP or I’m leaving. At this point that was a 15k cut. They’ve now wasted a week of negotiation and suddenly found the used one I originally requested, but it was at their off-site lot.

We drove over there, and it was a large 5 story parking deckcompletely filled to the top. They even had cars parked in front of cars. They tried one last game and made me wait for 3 hours to get it out.

All that is to say, let the fuckers bleed. If they can’t afford Christmas, maybe they need to learn what the fuck capitalism really means. If they can’t afford new years, it’s time to make a new resolution and if they can’t afford spring break, it’s time to find a new job.
