what?


Gelesis100, another oral hydrogel, I understand is not very effective, I wonder what makes this one different?

To the extent empathy is "do onto others as others would do onto you", empathy has a moral justification derived from Kant's categorical imperative.


Yes. You can define a regex matching what you want, and every regex can be compiled into a state machine (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondeterministic_finite_automa...). Then at each character you make a step in your state machine. You pause the output while the regex is not matching.


I wonder how this works? Are they just RAG-ing the chat history or something more clever?


Likely the cheapest solution they could get at this scale, so yes, RAG


RAG with clever attention mechanisms?


She is a psychopath, she has not changed, the "loving, caring mother" thing is a false persona she has created.


Yikes, two humans born for purely selfish purposes. Couple of dates: indictment: June 15, 2018; trial: August 31, 2021.

> In early 2019, Holmes became engaged to Evans, a 27-year-old heir to Evans Hotels, a family-owned group of hotels in the San Diego area.[136][135] In mid-2019, Holmes and Evans reportedly married in a private ceremony.[137][138] Holmes and Evans have not directly confirmed whether the two are legally married, and several sources continue to refer to him as her "partner" rather than her husband.[139][140] Holmes gave birth to a son in July 2021.[140] In October 2022, weeks before her sentencing hearing, it was reported she was pregnant with a second child.[141] Holmes was accused of conceiving a second child, according to a court filing from February 2023, as a strategy for delaying the start of her prison term.


Bad article. Straw-manning and borderline lying about the book.


Seems timely for Half-life 2's 20th birthday.

No.


625 micro-newtons [1]. Total weight of craft is 16kg [2]. That works out to 3.4 m/s gained per day.

[1] The "Solar Sail" wikipedia page says 800m x 800m is about 5N. This is 80m^2.

Interesting data. This[1] seems to suggest that this relatively small solar sail would be able to reach the moon from earth's orbit after ~3 years (I could be horribly misinterpreting this data!). That seems impressive, given how "simple" this method is.

However, it strikes me as difficult to use this the deeper into space we go. I would assume the further from the sun you go, the less thrust you receive from the sail. Also, how do you slow down and stop? Maybe you don't...

Sure, the amount of acceleration you get decreases as you get further from the nearest star, but that’s ok. Remember that you keep all the velocity you gained along the way, when you’re in space. You can be going pretty fast by the time you turn your sail to face the star at your destination.
