       @jonty @gigabecquerel For everyone who's very worried: Uranium almost entirely decays via alpha radiation, which is very dangerous and harmful if it comes from within your own body (because you ate or inhaled the radioactive element), but harmless from the outside. The particles get stuck in the dead layers of the skin. So as long as the tiles are well-sealed, it's fine. The type of radiation and where it comes from is crucial when it comes to determining how dangerous it is.

       @publius @jonty @gigabecquerel I don't think that's a problem. An extraordinary number of decays are needed to even have a measurable amount of radon at all; that doesn't happen on short time scales. And underground stations are always heavily ventilated. Radon is only dangerous when it's had time to build up in bubbles in the earth's crust and then leaks into a basement or similar.

       @tante I am absolutely baffled that apparently many people look at current "AI" and actually think they know things and are conscious?! It is so entirely obvious that ML algorithms are nothing of the sort.
