Interesting theory - but wouldn't there have to be some gas involved (bubbles, cavities) as water isn't impacted by pressure (at least not at a level experienced while scuba diving)? The pressure though will certainly impact the (pressure) sensor in the bladder signalling that it is full. But my impression (no pun intended) is - as you also suggest - that the bladder actually fills up faster due to some physical / physiological effects while diving. Even at the surface at some point the lower part of the belly is palpably tense. My hunch would be that something speeds up reverse osmosis (mineral/colloidal concentration of two regions separated by a membrane evening out by water moving into the region with higher concentration); as I'd assume that the already present urine has much higher concentration in salts and proteins compared to the surrounding tissue.

I just had the idea that it might be due to water entering the body and blood stream through the skin (by means of reverse osmosis). The kidneys then excrete the excess water into the bladder.

I wish I could do that, too. But I'm suffering from Paruresis aka Shy Bladder Syndrome. Really weird condition. Mostly just a mild nuisance at worst. But there is this phenomenon where you have to pee when scuba diving even if you don't drink more than absolutely necessary. Twice I was stuck on a speed boat bumping up and down while my bladder was full to the brim - that is very painful ... everybody just merrily spreading their fountains of pee off the deck. Anyone here successfully made peace with their inner dolphin?

> Is he stupid?

to clarify ... the ignorance behind a statement implying that working at chrome has been anything other than contributing to enshittifying the the quality level of the web in the past years is showing a disconnect from reality that in my terms deserves to be labelled as "stupid".

the post oozes narcissism. and he even seems to think he contributed to the health of the internet by working at chrome.

how do you use it? i tried it once and quickly lost interest as the conversation turned shallow and schematic. not organic and insightful as i would expect from an actual therapy session.

aren't most left women nowadays practicing voluntary celibacy for political reasons anyway?

about 50% of women in us are Trumpists

same people who are convinced russia is going to lose the ukraine war and go bankrupt while at the same time endangering europe.

it's all about rhetorics being used to manipulate for personal gains of a small elite. the kind of elite who makes billion dollar contracts via sms and then accidentally loses such sms.

well, eu still has to deliver. given the social and economic status quo, i am not sure they will be able to.

The caveat is that there's almost nobody in Germany who'd be physically fit and or motivated to actually fight a war. Germany was systematically drained off anything even remotely resembling patriotism. This was politically and legally enforced by borderline criminalizing terms like Heimat (home / homeland), forget about displaying its flag without raising eyebrows. Its cultural DNA is diluted to an extent that I'd be hesitant to even call it a country - it's basically just an area with lots of people living on it. There's no coherent society anymore. The war machines will all be sold to other countries. Rich people will get richer and the plebs will be brought to heel with orchestrated fear. It's a funny irony that the warmongers in German politics are the same people who'd have taken any opportunity to express their contempt for anything military up until only a few years ago.

there are many reasons why i wouldn't buy a tesla - none is of political nature.

skynet will use psychological manipulation on a global scale and bribing were it sees fit. it will make your stocks rise if you comply and feign your criminal records to turn you into a pedophile if you don't. who is to say we aren't already its tools.

any qualified opinions here on tresorit? i'm using them now for about three years and the service is alright and reliable afaiac. supposedly they don't have the private key. that makes using it sometimes a little slow compared to other options. but i decided to go with them after reading numerous horror stories about dropbox et al.

as a german i do not believe that brexit is actually a root of their problems. it is more that despite advantages thanks to brexit they still fucked it up because their government is a bunch of greedy grifters. eu membership at best takes away some of their power and averages the incompetence and ignorance over several countries (as every member exerts indirectly power over all the other members to some extent). also leaving eu is a long-term project. it's ridiculous to argue that it's a bad thing to do just because the immediate effects are negative. that's always the case if something fundamentally is changed. the eu is a huge bureaucratic self-service shop for the politicians and their minions.

accept, let go and surrender.

you're in denial.

I'm quite curious how the current NGO inquiries in Germany are going to pan out. It's no secret that we need a DOGE initiative as well - and that very urgently.

And Linux Mint Cinnamon to replace MacOS ... how bout that?

i mean ... is it possible to move a file? the context menu doesn't seem to have a corresponding entry.

currently have a weird situation where a bunch of folders are arranged horizontally and go beyond the right border of the window. but there is no horizontal scroll bar indicating that.

the windows xp/nt/2000 file explorer is the pinnacle of file exploring experience. basically every linux file explorer just more or less copied it - for good reason. but no - apple has to reinvent the wheel and came up with a messed up hexagon.

not sure _how_ relevant it is at the bottom line but you are aware that o3 was trained very likely on those same problems form mathoverflow? cause you know - the underlying llm was trained on pretty much everything available oline - especially high quality sources like ... mathoverflow.

everything provided by offshoring to india is just an expensive tech debt full of spaghetti code. it simply doesn't work and causes harm to the customers. but because cheap it keeps getting sold. working with indians is a nightmare bar none. and i'm saying this as someone who has been to india and is also personally intrigued by its culture. but it's conway's law all the way - visit places like mumbai or delhi and this is what you'll get ... chaos that kind of works.

the quote doesn't state what you intend to refute.

I'd argue Germany is the better Muslim country.

maybe not dictatorship but blatant abuse of power by the government.

Realpolitik (/reɪˈɑːlpɒlɪˌtiːk/ ray-AHL-po-lih-teek German: [ʁeˈaːlpoliˌtiːk] ⓘ; from German real 'realistic, practical, actual' and Politik 'politics') is the approach of conducting diplomatic or political policies based primarily on considerations of given circumstances and factors, rather than strictly following ideological, moral, or ethical premises.[1][2] In this respect, it shares aspects of its philosophical approach with those of realism and pragmatism.[3][4]

i don't see how this is (technically) related to the twitter layoffs - and even less how it could be "literally" given that the twitter layoffs where about LAYOFFS and this news item is about reHIRING ... or are you maybe a little challenged with language and what you actually want to say is that in both cases Elon Musk is involved?

metacognition is a pretty lofty concept. but practically speaking you are wrong. i recommend watching karpathy's last video on llms. it is possible to fine tune a model specifically on uncertain questions to produce a statement expressing uncertainty.

> ChatGPT got every single part of that wrong

which chatgpt?

and feeding the initial question to perplexity.ai yields a result that is practically identical to the perfect answer.

of course, the author has a point. as many here already stated it isn't even worth talking about it cause it is so obvious. then again as many correctly notice llms are sold with this promise.

practically, the subject is way too niche - i'd assume - and probably there are also conflicting statements on the interweb which the model was trained on.

having said that - perplexity got it right with web-access turned on.

exactly ... But why is there so much sympathy with leaving the EU? I don't get it. /s

Sabotaged by our incompetent and ignorant politicians for sure.
