Okay but logically kidney issues leading to high creatine does suggest that creatine is not all that good for the body, no? else why would the kidney keep it under control?

Would you suggest that white blood cells are "not all that good for the body" because they're amped up during a bout of sickness?

Maybe they aren't! But you can't infer that from the mere correlation. Hence that phrase about its relationship to causation.


No, elevated creatinine levels is only a sign of kidney disease if all else remains equal. Consuming more creatine will naturally increase production of creatinine because creatinine is a byproduct of the kidneys processing creatine.

In other words, it's not a very reliable signal for kidney disease. There is a more reliable blood test called a "Cystatin C" test.


You know what is crazy, that this whole bullshit "MDC" garbage "API" that websites and stuff like Outlook have is stuff that they could have had by having SIMPLER settings in their services, they obfuscate them like hell then they give the "solution" simple API to agents so that THEY can easily use their services, but not humans.

It's so disgusting, I hate this industry.


CXMT is scaling up incredibly fast, they are on a clock (south koreans) their monopoly will end relatively soon, although I'm guessing that the AI companies will crash before that anyways.

> their monopoly will end relatively soon

Corsair DDR5 DIMM modules with CXMT RAM started appearing on Friday.


Maybe because losing 700b so far is not "safe" for the economy?


The US “loses” $1T every ~150 days on delivering basic government services, and every US citizen is on the hook for that, not just investors.

It does not have to be bad, it depends on who they lost it to. Nvidea probably wins, the data center construction companies, electric companies etc. The tricky thing about an economy is that big picture "losing" means money is not moving and "winning" means that it is.

Wouldn't surprise me if they're just paying math geniuses to do math research and attribute it to AI models.


God, this is just as awful as Microsoft trying to push copilot into everything, trash.


Imagine buying hardware from Google, as if they haven't given enough reasons to distrust them.


They have what I think is the best implementation of vertical tabs, chrome doesn't even have them, firefox is so far behind it's not even funny anymore... brave's is terrible.


How many gigantic companies can join this before it crashes?


I am so actually beyond sad that I ever trusted Musk, all the signs were there, from the lies with Tesla to the nonesensical point to point "tourist" lies, to the Mars lies, to the fact that the spaceship they are developing right now requires an actual elevator to get astronauts down, it was never meant for humans, it was meant to deploy sats in space even cheaper, outcompete the competition and basically kill human spaceflight as a result... because less profitable human rated spacecraft won't be viable.

Oh yeah, did I mention how Starlink is literally already in the close to Kessler Syndrome territory? all it would need is for a strong enough solar storm to hit their sats.


The elevator was there when it was originally announced.

There's no Kessler Syndrome where Starlink is.

You'd know this if you read Kessler's first paper. It's online.

i.e if every single Starlink satellite crashes into another you won't get Kessler Syndrome.

And the same it true for the planned Kuiper.


First of all, yes I know about the elevator hence why I mentioned it, you know, first of all it's not that safe to be going down an elevator from what is basically a multiple stories high building while in space (#1) and (#2) why would you add complexity/failure points on purpose if your mission was being multiplanetary?

The spacecraft wasn't designed with humans in mind first.

And second:

This is a paper by Kessler himself:

Elevator already approved by NASA. They think it's fine. Haven't changed their minds.

Figure 1 on the graph should have shamed you enough into not posting.
