High Court notice from the mentioned court case: https://pretty.direct/consentorder.pdf

> The Defendants accept that they have never had any evidence to support the allegations apart from the two unverified claims published in coordination with the Open Letter. They were never in a position to make any informed judgement on the truth of the allegations, and did not seek clarification on any of the allegations from the Claimant.

He won £5,000 plus costs.

[edit - the defendants here appear to be signatories of the open letter]


It's interesting looking at the messages of recent commits of people removing their names:

- Upon reflection, I don't think this letter was the right approach for this situation. Although I cannot retract my initial decision to sign it, I would appreciate having my signature removed from the document.

- We had good intentions and reasons for concern, but there was no due process, and the consequences of that can be awful. Please accept my withdrawal.

- The goal of providing safe spaces is laudable and necessary, but I expected to see further process outcomes from this effort. Perhaps some sort of SIP or scalarum iustitiae processus.

- I no longer believe the way this letter was the right way of dealing with the situation. And while I cannot undo signing it, I would like to request removing my signature.


Given its role in energy transfer, does this suggest creatine might be a good supplement for improving sleep?


That's a bizarre coincidence. For the past few days I've run across a bunch of accounts of people taking more creatine than suggested (10-20g a day). They seem to all talk about how it makes them work better during sleep deprivation. So the answer seems like it helps.


Do you have any links? This is interesting


I’ve seen some social media posts in the last week by Rhonda Patrick discussing 20g/day for cognitive benefits.

Can’t find that post, but here is a breakdown of claims from an interview she conducted a few months ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/Supplements/comments/1jo8pk8/my_top...


I mean there are studies that show this as well. Not the improved sleep, but help in sleep deprivation scenarios


It’s a rational expectation. Improves phosphate transport for more efficient or unbottlenecked ATP synthesis.

Everyone should use creatine. It’s not just for bros.


My sleep gets worse when I take creatine, so maybe it doesn't improve sleep, but rather helps mitochondria to get by without sleep?


Also the working on PRs workflow seems broken - the local branch doesn't have the changes that are on the PR so I can't pick it up and continue working on it.

Agreed that worktrees seem clearly better.


> Fake meat isn't really a product for vegetarians/vegans

This is just flat-out wrong.


Why do you fucking think? Because it's tasty. You can disagree with the ethics of how we make animals suffer because they taste nice and still think they taste nice.


WhatsApp has a somewhat similar feature - pull up to start a group voice chat. You can ping others to let them know you're around.

The only time I've seen this feature be used is when my grandma accidentally turns it on in the family groupchat - I just don't wanna hang out with my friends in WhatsApp



You imply that, like a stopped clock, LLMs are only right occasionally and randomly. Which is just nonsense.


Although I get what you're saying, it's still true that if something is wrong randomly at any point, it is always "randomly wrong".


It's true, though. It strings together plausible words using a statistical model. If those words happen to mean something, it's by chance.


Sure, but that chance might be 99.7%. 'Random' isn't a pejorative.
