  + stars: | 2024-11-12 | by ( Ian Phillips | Korey Isbell | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +1 min
Paleontologist Dave Hone rates the realism of every "Jurassic Park" movie. He talks about how the T. rex hunted down its prey, how the Gallimimus outran predators, and what Velociraptors actually looked like in "Jurassic Park," starring Sam Neill, Jeff Goldblum, and Laura Dern. He debunks myths about the Stegosaurus' spikes and the T. rex's vision in "The Lost World: Jurassic Park," starring Julianne Moore and Vince Vaughn. He explains why some dinosaurs with sharp claws couldn't outclimb humans and how others could deliver devastating headbutts in "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom." Finally, he does a deep dive into the many feathered dinosaurs featured in "Jurassic World Dominion."

☆ Scientists uncover a 'bizarre' leggy dinosaur unlike anything seen before, and it could rewrite the history of bird evolution
  + stars: | 2023-09-07 | by ( Marianne Guenot | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
The 150-million-year-old dinosaur is likely a very early bird ancestor, as old as the Archeopterix. This suggests bird's long legs may have evolved much early than thought. The dinosaur, named Fujianvenator prodigiosus, is thought to be as old the Archaeopteryx, which many consider to be the first bird. AdvertisementAdvertisement"I would put my money on runner," Wang told Reuters. There is still a 30 million-year-long gap in the fossil record between Archeopteryx and Fujianvenator and the next bird fossil on record, which appears in the Cretaceous, the study authors said in a press release.

☆ It’s official: Silicon Valley’s entire business model is a scam

The problem is, conservative economists at the University of Chicago have spent the past 50 years insisting that under capitalism, predatory pricing is not a thing. Predatory companies could never recoup their losses, which meant predatory behaviors are irrational. Lots of economists have come up with solid counter-counterarguments to the Chicago School's skepticism about predatory pricing. A company that engages in predatory pricing and its late-stage investors might not recoup, but the venture investors do. "If people in Silicon Valley start thinking about this as a predatory pricing scam, then I think the late-stage investors will start asking questions."

☆ AI tech like Dall-E 2 will eventually kill smartphone apps, A16z VC Peter Levine says
