Excuse me what does libral art refers to here? In my head, half of STEM are libral art subjects: math, physics, chemistry, economics, psychlogy, sociology, and etc.
Liberal arts education (from Latin liberalis ‘free’ and ars ‘art or principled practice’)[1] is a traditional academic course in Western higher education, which traditionally covers the natural and formal sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities.


Typst is great! You can sperate the code for data from the code to render the CV, thus adapt to any format without changing the data.


Company Reps Left, Feeling “Unsafe”.
So does everyone who might suffer from the pollution, noise, and increased utility bill from data center.


NGL sounds AI AF


Asking LLM to turn “idea” (instead of detailed spec) into a gigantic codebase is like asking your spell checker to write your essays.


You are working on a PhD, depends on the subject and your effort, you likely will have a better job in no time, right :)


I programmed pretty intensively in OCaml a couple years ago to get a better understanding of the language.
It is a fine language, perfectly suited for general purpose programming, and is in general decently ergonomic. I personally won’t use it as my perfered language though. I find the functor/module system way too powerful, and can easily cause confusion in complex settings. There really is no better system for adhoc polymorphism than type classes. But people standby modules though.
I feel the good part of OCaml are generally avaliable in most good programming language, thus I kind of feel that the share for OCaml might slowly getting eaten by Rust, but we will see.


Or just eat tofu.
Many parts of the world were mostly vegan until very recently, but that doesn’t stop them from developing amazing cuisines.
Most people in non-herding economy simply cannot afford meat just a couple hundred years ago.


Even worse, I have a feeling that this is most likely gambling on fame, money, and a nature paper, instead of solving a disease.


Maybe yes, maybe no, but they definitely can make you die from immune reponse though.


At times during the conversation, Linda became overwhelmed and turned away from the camera, as Jason pressed on. They recalled that when Mei’s birthday came around earlier this year, they said nothing to each other, though they both assumed it was on the other’s mind.
“We do not discuss that,” Linda said.
During the call, Linda finally told her husband how she had spent that day. While he was at work, she finally returned to the old apartment and sat down on Mei’s bed surrounded by all her things. She had purchased a chocolate cupcake on the way and now picked at it as she imagined that her daughter was still at her side.
By the time she finished telling her story, Jason was welling up. Linda glanced over at him tenderly. “My husband didn’t know this,” she said. “I cannot cry every day, but that day, I think, I can cry in the room.”
Oh man…


Turns out they did on both mice and primates, and the side effect is also evaluated:
Another potential concern, however, emerged about 1 month before Mei was treated: the final conclusions of a primate toxicology study conducted at PriMed. The company’s report, dated 17 February 2025, concluded all four monkeys that received the therapy, whether at low or high doses, developed moderate to severe liver damage.
However, the ethics board did not review the safety report:
An ethics panel at Xinhua Hospital in China approved a gene-editing trial, but had not reviewed primate data suggesting safety concerns. Another hospital panel later concluded the experimental treatment was “definitely related” to Mei’s death.
Even worse, the brain development data from the primate study is entirely unconvincing:
But four of the experts Science asked to assess this figure, including one of the original reviewers of the Nature manuscript, expressed concerns about how well the primate proof-of-concept study was conducted. The submitted paper had no control samples to show the stain was selectively highlighting the gene editor. “It’s completely unconvincing,” says David Sanders, a biochemist at Purdue University who has studied gene therapy. “One can’t have the confidence that one isn’t mostly looking at background staining.”


So is gasoline and battery :(


I really wish hydrogen will take off, I mean EV is great and simple, but the process of producing batteries are very polluting, yet hydrogen can be scaled almost everywhere.


I am not sure if that is intended.
On https://join.piefed.social/roadmap/ it states:
blocking – users, communities, domains, instances. bi-directional.
and on https://join.piefed.social/features/ :
Proper Instance Blocking – Actually hides all content from blocked instances.
Although the exact specification is not given. I personally have not recall seeing ml post, but maybe I didn’t care enough to look.


I think bidirectional blocking is default on pifed, you just need to put whichever user/instance in your block list.


Boy do I enjoy piefed’s bidirectional blocking feature: I don’t see their comments, and they don’t see mine. We both live in pease (unless they are bots/trolls, then they live in pain muohaha)


The problem is that in this case human delivering the code would have no idea that the code is proprietary.
