I've used Beeper for about a year with Facebook, Signal, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and iMessage. Instagram signs me out once a month or so for security suspicions, but I just reconfirm my account with 2FA. Other than that, no issues.
The course is free and funded by Open Philanthropy.
It's not taught by James solely, but there's weekly discussion groups on readings chosen by a mix of alums from OpenAI and Oxford's Future Of Humanity Institute.
What a shame, especially that the dome reflector was damaged too. I remember visiting in person and being awestruck by the sheer size and engineering skill needed to make this. Plus it provides needed tourism revenue for PR; I hope it's not abandoned.
Unsure if you mean solution for migrating or solution for a good alternative platform, but Ghost has received a decent amount of praise. https://ghost.org/vs/medium/
Making this worse, the final size of an epidemic can be estimated as not p=1-1/R0, but rather p=1-e^-R0 [1]. With this, those R0 estimates give a final infected population of 95%-~100%... we can't let herd immunity be the solution.
We got similar news at Cornell today, with professors being advised to go online asap but will be forced to in early April which is also when students will be sent home. The problem here is that most upperclassmen live off-campus and can't be forced to disperse. Furthermore, many students are from NYC where they'll visit during spring break and then come back to Ithaca. The atmosphere on campus is very nonchalant; most are more upset by cancelled events than the possibility of encountering the virus.
For reference, the generally accepted standard for determining age from blood is the Horvath clock [1]. It seems to be accurate and only uses a penalized regression. Keep in mind this represents what your age is in reference to a "healthy" person. For example, a 50-year-old who smokes may have the equivalent practical age of a 60-year-old who doesn't. The Horvath clock is useful for evaluating lifestyle changes and your overall healthspan.
If people want to learn more about how DNA methylation relates to aging, I recommend reading Lifespan by David Sinclair.
And 60+ years later their guess is semi-confirmed by this study; if humans want to be in space for a long time they'll need artificial gravity to avoid most of the harms mentioned in the article.
Amazing that 90% of his genes returned to normal expression. I wonder how long humans can withstand microgravity before that number drops severely, or if it's a gradual decline...
