  1. According to #TorstenSlok, the chief economist at Apollo Global Management, the current #AI-driven #marketbubble is more stretched than the #dotcom frenzy of the late 1990s. Slok compares the 12-month forward #pricetoearnings (P/E) #ratios of the top ten companies in the S&P 500 against the rest of the index, showing that the #PEratios of the top ten companies are #evenhigher than they were at the peak of the dot-com bubble. gizmodo.com/wall-streets-ai-bu #AIagent #AI #ML #NLP #LLM #GenAI

  2. My wife decided to put a pot roast into the slow cooker today, which seemed to me like a good excuse to whip up some homemade biscuits. Mighty fine idea, even if I do say so myself.

    Simple 3:2:1 ratio of flour:milk:fat with some salt and baking powder. 30 minutes start to finish.

  3. Apropos of nothing in particular, do you know how many civilians would be shot in occupied Poland by the Nazis for any soldier they lost to the resistance?

    Twenty.

  4. I like "#Travelers". It's fun to watch, decent story and all.

    Also, I teach #statistics a lot and tell my students that you cannot calculate #ratios on an #interval #scale. The #IQ is a very prototypical example of an interval scale.

    So, along comes "Travelers" S1E1 and this dialogue happens:

    (around 19:33 in the Netflix version)
    David: She just forgot who she was pretending to be? That's crazy.
    Doctor: It's infinitely more possible than her I.Q. doubling overnight.

    I am furious! 😡

  5. I'm a #Nurse from #Victoria, #Australia. We won #ratios way back in 2000 (and have fought to keep them several times since).

    Ratios work: they reduce hospital #deaths and #illness, they attract qualified nurses back into the system, and they reduce the moral harm that we suffer when wards are understaffed.

    I stand in #Solidarity with the #Nurses in #NewJersey: your victory will be a victory for the whole community.

  6. #NZNO CE Paul Goulter said the #nurses do not feel they are being heard or taken seriously. Claims around safer staffing practices, nurse to patient #ratios & health & safety have fallen on deaf ears, and these members have simply had enough. 1news.co.nz/2023/07/19/35000-n

  7. @aurn Welcome. I'm an activist with the Victorian Branch of the Australian Nurses and Midwives Federation. I'm posting in a personal capacity.

    I've been with my Union for over 20 years and remember when we first won #ratios throughout our state back in 2001. We have had to fight to retain and improve them, but we've held on and there's no doubt that #safestaffingsaveslives

    I stand with you in #solidarity as you fight for the interests of your members and the people you care for.

  8. New(ish) paper: #Queen #honeybees adjust their #investment
    (and the proteins) in their #eggs depending on the real or perceived size of their #colony: elifesciences.org/digests/8049

    Queens also partly control which and how may #drones they #mate with. And it seems that they partly control offspring #sex #ratios (older research): science.org/content/article/qu

    So much going on, and definitely some #complex #interactions to explore. Gotta love #social #insects!

  9. #Welcome #NewHere
    I'm Daniel, an analytical (geo)chemist and lab manager at #CAU university of #Kiel - my scientific interests are the technological advancement of in-situ analytical routines, so that #stable #isotope and #element #ratios can be used as a toolbox to probe natural processes (#uptake of beneficial elements in plants) and reconstruct the past (e.g. as #climate #proxy )
