If this is so, why do I find (for scientific research on biomedicine topics, primarily) that Claude’s results are much better than say Gemini’s? I hear the same opinion from others in biotech and big pharma.

What is a terminal reader? Runs in the shell? Newsblur has that? I use their web and iOS interfaces.

Might be related to neck stiffness on very cold nights.

It is Facebook. I expected exactly this from smart glasses made by them. You can’t change the DNA of a company.

The ability to (1) block all Pinterest domains in image search and (2) click an image hyperlink and get straight to the file - these two features alone are worth my annual subscription fee to Kagi.

This should be a badge of honor, a rite of passage for companies: when they become big and important enough for humanity, RMS will write a negative <company>.html page on his website.

The virus lies dormant in spinal and cranial ganglia for decades. If it reactivates, the immune system suppresses it, in the meantime. Past age 50-60, immunity wanes and these reactivations cannot be suppressed which allows the virus to travel back to the corresponding skin region as the spine segment to cause shingles. Presumably, after this the virus can also cross the blood brain barrier to cause neurodegeneration.

Absolutely. This is the correct way do this. It should be adjusted downwards to account for inflation, not up.

Someone should start a StallmanGPT that writes regular blogposts on “Don’t use <popular software or website>”. See if readers can tell those apart from the real website.

Another article that highlights Vic Gundotra’s arrival and rise at Google as the beginning of their decline.
