I think you haven't read the paper and sound frankly pretty silly arguing about it. I think you get your daily dose of confirmation bias and confuse it with actual knowledge.
See my comment above. You obviously haven't read the paper. You can quibble with the quality of experimental confirmation, but kindly do so from a position of actual understanding.
Don't read the paper. If you did you would see that the model results are correlated with empirical evidence (extinction of species via disappearance from the fossil record). In a way that's pretty clever, and since the fossil evidence comes from a different research group, probably correct. Then you would have to realize that your comment is inane.
Presidential Candidate Liz Warren is proposing something similar at the national level, although it's not purely gender based. I expect to see this idea emerge as part of the 2020 Democrat platform.
Agree 100% with parent. I suspect this is a press release generated not-by-the-authors because the research is accepted into a good journal. DNA methylation is old shit (like 30 years). This is a fantastic *experiment* for several reasons: it's got some novelty (different from what the articles are touting), and the experiment is very well designed with positive and negative controls. It takes courage to move outside the mainstream, and it does none of us any service when these results are overhyped.
Plus there's the whole DNA methylation thing is like 30 years old. These guys didn't discover it. I learned about it in undergrad.
Apparently there is no such thing as a 'false positive' in Europe. Maybe you geniuses could show us stupid Americans how you pull that off. Thanks in advance.
Let's just go by the words and actions of Elon himself. He's accused someone, apparently without merit, of being a 'pedo guy.' He tweets bizarre shit at odd hours that make me think he should be drug tested. He went all in on this 'funding secured' thing, and the subsequent behavior is a clear case of frantic bullshit in action. All of these things are going to land him in court. And for fuck's sake: Tesla makes one of the most advanced machines in the history of mankind. It should be assembled in a goddamn clean room and it's being built in a TENT. And you are saying it's only noise?
Expert witnesses have credentials, and that world is pretty small. If someone is seriously arguing in a legal filing that a billion dollar property is worth 200 bucks, they should face professional sanctions or at least ridicule. I would for sure use that nonsense against said "expert" if I ever ran into them again.
I did read the Fine Article, thanks. A quick search of 'fuzzing microcode' doesn't immediately explain what it means in this context. That's why I asked. Help a brother out?
Your example isn't simplistic, it's inane. No scientist would ever use the term "strong evidence" to describe a single correlation. Also, I teach physicians for a living. Rest assured my understanding of this topic is nuanced. Frankly, comments like yours- offtopic, insulting, adding nothing while trying to elevate your own internal sense of intelligence by bringing down someone else- drive away people who are actually in a position to add to the discussion. Please grow up.
This effect is probably on the doctor side, not the patient side. There is emerging evidence that female surgeons have better outcomes than male surgeons, for operations done on either gender.
You have been an important contributor in this space for many years. Thanks for your time, and I am very sorry to hear about the loss of your home. I will be looking out for your posts on this life-hack.
"It's actually way better than the factory building." = "I wasted a couple billion of your money, and will be asking for more soon"
I really have a lot of respect for Elon Musk. The guy is a true captain of industry- he has taken his fortune into half a dozen new, genuinely interesting ventures, as opposed to buying boats or islands or giving his money away. I wish there were more like him.
But reading all these "This tent kicks ass and this kicks ass and these guys also kick asses" tweets about how you just built a fucking tent as part of your five-thousand-dollars-per-MINUTE-burn rate... and somehow your tent kicks so much more ass than the factory that kicked ass through the first 99% of your company's life... smells of sweaty desperation to me.
I've read the book. The details are so much worse than anything you have read in the news articles about Theranos.
Theranos never developed *anything*. Their automated super-high-tech lab system was a commercially available 3-axis glue dispenser that they stuck pipettes onto. I tried to imagine what it must have been like as a new hire, getting fed the "change the world" crap and signing on with the company, and then seeing the cover opened on that kludge for the first time.
But of course almost no one saw the working innards of the machine, because Balwani the too old boyfriend created a compartmentalized, CIA like structure where no one was allowed to talk to each other. The engineers building the system's microfluidics weren't allowed to talk to the biochemists who were working on the tests. How could that possibly work?
And then anyone who questioned the plan or the message got fired. So many people got fired; whole teams got fired. People went on demos and saw them fail! Any mention of failure? Fired.
IMO, the one person most responsible for this whole debacle who has not yet been held to account is Channing Robertson, who was a senior engineering faculty at Stanford and upon whose bona fides this whole thing started. He may not be legally responsible, but he's the adult in the room who first bought the hype, and he HAD TO have known that the whole damn thing was vaporware. "Fake it til you make it" is not okay in medicine.

seven percent change in population versus twenty percent change in number of physicians being trained. you are speaking from a position of ignorance.
This would be a great comment except that there have been TWENTY FOUR new US medical schools established in the last ten years.

And that's why the thing is shiny, and anti-static, and gas impermeable. Damn. Crystal structure for the win, every time.
I'm guessing you don't have young children. Helium balloons these days last a week, easy. I think the material is mylar?
That reference is awesome. Thanks.
You are a fucking idiot.
Agree. This painting is now famous. It's going to be worth way more than $1.3M in ten years. Buyer has to be psyched.
As an erstwhile collector of art, a nerd, and a wannabe evil genius, I am simultaneously appalled, amused, and envious. Bravo, sir. Well played.

Hugely informative. Thanks.
Thanks, that makes sense.

Is the separate RISC core actually on the silicon or just in the patent? Time to get out the fuming sulfuric acid.

Tesla-people, please point out where I'm wrong.
