I did skim a bunch of articles first, all with the same info, but they were too long-winded or paywalled to link to. This summary seemed just right…

From Google AI:

In 1990, the year the film was released, the actual house from Home Alone was purchased for $875,000. Economists from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago have determined that, at that price, the home was only affordable to the top 1% of Chicago households at the time.

To afford the house in 1990 (assuming they spent no more than 30% of their income on housing), the McCallister family would have needed a household income of about $305,000, which is approximately $665,000 in 2022 dollars.

The house last sold in 2012 for $1.58 million and again in early 2025 for $5.5 million.

How did you generates this? I’ve never seen this style before.

Abstract:

Since 2006, type 1 diabetes in Finland has plateaued and then decreased after the authorities’ decision to fortify dietary milk products with cholecalciferol. The role of vitamin D in innate and adaptive immunity is critical. A statistical error in the estimation of the recom- mended dietary allowance (RDA) for vitamin D was recently discovered; in a correct analysis of the data used by the Institute of Medi- cine, it was found that 8895 IU/d was needed for 97.5% of individuals to achieve values ≥50 nmol/L. Another study confirmed that 6201 IU/d was needed to achieve 75 nmol/L and 9122 IU/d was needed to reach 100 nmol/L. The largest meta-analysis ever conduct- ed of studies published between 1966 and 2013 showed that 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels <75 nmol/L may be too low for safety and associated with higher all-cause mortality, demolishing the previously presumed U-shape curve of mortality associated with vitamin D levels. Since all-disease mortality is reduced to 1.0 with serum vitamin D levels ≥100 nmol/L, we call public health authorities to consider designating as the RDA at least three-fourths of the levels proposed by the Endocrine Society Expert Committee as safe up- per tolerable daily intake doses. This could lead to a recommendation of 1000 IU for children <1 year on enriched formula and 1500 IU for breastfed children older than 6 months, 3000 IU for children >1 year of age, and around 8000 IU for young adults and thereaf- ter. Actions are urgently needed to protect the global population from vitamin D deficiency.

This is kinda amazing. The AI only got wrong the part about “transmitted” being crossed out. That was just a splotch of ink on the page. Otherwise… unbelievably impressive.

Completely off-topic, but is anyone else getting flickering lines when the noisier part of one of the Samples images is on screen?

I think my phone is dying.

Damn. We’re already at almost 10000 qubits with a sustained exponential growth. Ten more years seems about right.

RSA-2048: ~4096 logical qubits, 20-30 million physical qubits

256-bit ECC: ~2330 logical qubits, 12-15 million physical qubits

RSA-3072: ~6000 logical qubits, 30-40 million physical qubits

This makes no sense. Salads really do have nuts sometimes, whilst I’ve never heard of bees having steak.

Their growth would probably look amazing in a timelapse!

That’s not very typical, I’d like to make that point.

Did we just hit the corner?

…It feels weird to catch myself making a joke about death and maiming. I used to be opposed to taking lightly the death of Russian soldiers in the first few months of the war. I assumed that most of them were there against their will. At this point though I feel that only the worst kind of human would fight on the Russian side. And it seems I have no more compassion for them… At all.

TIL about the Ronna and Quetta prefixes.

Just trying to imagine what he feels like overloads my “chuffed” meter… I would probably pull a George Constanza, declare the war over and just leave on a high note.

Tragically, I think they only aim to be “do it somewhere else” nets. Because they introduce the threat of getting caught or partially caught and having to live with the embarrassment or wounds, respectively.

Qu’est que le fuck, Belgium?

Mysterious are your ways, o Lord. I didn’t hear a clear “no” so I’ll interpret that as a “sure, yeah, lol”. Thanks! Daggermoon is king.

Now about this hell business, how many of the people i don’t like can fit in there?..

That’s a great rule. It’ll raise conversion to our religion! We can ignore it whenever even mildly inconvenient though, of course?

What are your views regarding people that are different from me?

Porque no los dos?
