I would like just to thank you for writing to title that it's US-specific. I mean, it was clear by the time I finished the title, but that's not always the case and I was really glad that you put it there.

And can I turn this off?

Well, it wouldn't be good evidence on its own at court, but can very well nudge an investigation in a right direction. And anyway, it's a first step, done with little resources and ablimited dataset for training. And at least for me, it'sbthe first time I hear something like this is possible at all. Others said that tools to the same effect were around for quite a while, but I haven't seen anyone providing sources, especially some that would give quantification of its capabilites.

Have you read the link? It doesn't say thay that analysing figerprints is less powerfull than was known, but more. It describes previously unknown connection between fingerprints of different fingers of a single person. This could indicate, for example, that two crimes were probably commited by the same person even when not a single identical fingerprint was found on both sites.

I actually don't know, it's a good point. It's definitely stochastic, but I don't know how late in the development it happens. There are definitely cats with colours completely jumbled cats with large patches of each colour. But I just realised that colour comes from melanocytes. And melanocytes must migrate from the back, as they come from neural crest. Which strikes me as a great reason for straight division on the front (the cells coming from left and right meet there) that we see here, regardless of the origin of diversity of cell colours. So I think it shouldn't matter, but it's just a guess.

Beautiful cat! Thanks. Is there any particular reason to think it's a chimera? If it's a female, it's more likely to be X chromosome inactivation.

Keywords don't need @. I'm using g for google, d for duckduckgo, mg for google maps etc.

Hang on, I was under the impression nobody actually thought singularities existed, only that our current math and physics isn't developed enough to get any reasonable results in such extreme places?

I very much like Unexpected keyboard. It takes a bit of work, but you can completely change the layout, sizes of all buttons, and one button can contain multiple characters. You input all the extra ones by swiping from the key in a particular direction, which is very fast and convenient. Plus it has an easy access to input of many, many special characters, contains Ctrl, you can have gestures for copy/paste/undo and so on. But it doesn't have any predictions yet, you have to type everything out.

This doesn't sound very accurate. For starters, classical mechanics fails to describe even motion of Mercury. But more importantly, uncertainty in this context means someting else in this context. And while it is true that Schrödinger's cat is both alive and dead until observed, once observed, it's been dead or alive all along. Same with a tree, once it is determined it has fallen, it has already made the sound and produced all the consequences some time ago. While I don't understand quantum mechanics, I'm fairly sure the person who wrote the copypasta understands it even less than me.
