I've tried doing a google AI search for some youtube video subjects, and get interesting results. It does not seem to integrate my youtube viewing history or subscriptions, so far as I can tell. Like any AI search you…
The encouragement is that the rate of "death from colorectal carcinoma" seems to be reduced in studies of screening. This is a 'disease specific' mortality statistic. Most of us don't care why we die, or what is…
The author mentioned that some of the "Q" sayings in Matthew have been modified and are worded a bit differently in Luke, and seemed to believe that this was an argument more for a separate "Q" source than for the…
I vividly remember being in a pathology lab session in 1973 when the Prof pulled the organs out of a formalin jar of a patient who died from micronodular cirrhosis or Lanneac's disease -- he pointed out that the aorta…
I was greatly disappointed - I was expecting an analysis of the T-shaped monoliths at Gobleki Tepe which are adorned with carvings indicative of them representing people. I have suspected for years that the peculiar…
I'm at home, and I thought my ISP had decided reddit was unhealthy for me. But when I found I could ping reddit and still access it from the reddit app on my tablet computer I decided it was some mystery reddit error.
Concur - pasting copied text is a random nightmare. The markdown editor works fine but the 'help' menu has disappeared. So it goes.
I'm the same age as OP's mother (69, will be 70 in July) and I've been using linux on the desktop since 1997 (24 years ago). Windows 97/98 was so flaky and crash-prone that I did a search for some other OS for my Compaq…
The effectiveness of chronic opioids for pain is really patient and disease dependent. My SO has chronic abdominal and widespread somatic pain diagnosed with autoimmune small fiber polyneuropathy (by biopsy) and also…
Somehow withdrawing funding from the current only worldwide public health organization at the beginning of a pandemic seems ?? shortsighted. Is trump admitting that he is incapable of negotiating his desired changes in…
> If numbers are finite and limited in their precision, then nature itself is inherently imprecise, and thus unpredictable. Is this not what Planck's constant implies? We can only know position and/or motion to a…
"Pseudo-addiction" is a very bad term and should never have been concocted. A more correct term would be "inadequately treated". Calling a person suffering from pain who reasonably desires relief from pain a…
The behavior the author described has been called 'milk treading', and is thought to be originally the way that kittens coax milk out of their mother cats, but later in life can be a regression to a trusting…
"Free" unless you have insurance, which they will then happily overbill ad infinitum. I'm a Gulf War vet, and enrolled at the VA for healthcare. My private insurance (BC/BS) has reimbursed the VA for every single thing…
That is pretty convincing, even from a person with high frequency hearing loss! So Embassy persons heard crickets (in the walls or ceiling or somewhere) and then the conspiracy theories flowed like Spice from Dune...…
I worked at the VA for over 2 decades, including the transition from handwritten to electronic notes. Wow. When I retired, the nursing notes for a patient visit were usually 2-3X longer than the docs note. The nursing…
Persons with chronic pain should have access to treatments that work for them. For some, it may be exercise, or physical therapy, or tylenol, or a TENS unit. For a few, it may be opioids in low or high doses. Treatments…
"People who exercise more are less likely to get dementia, possibly because it maintains blood flow to the brain. " Or, perhaps, people who are able to exercise and have the drive and foresight to exercise regularly for…
There are, not surprisingly, persons who actually truly really have chronic pain, and who benefit from use of opioids -- and miracle of miracles, some of those persons use the opioids responsibly and as directed. They…
The article makes as much sense if you understand "boomers" means "Americans". The article was intentionally inflammatory and makes sweeping generalizations, and seems mostly to be a venue for the author to air his…
I can remember seeing some sort of a lunar lander program running on the console screens of the CDC ?6600 at Indiana University in 1970, as I peered in to the machine room waiting for my sad little student Fortran…
This is a hot-button topic, which generates much heat. Most men (>80%) will have prostate cancer by the time they reach age 80 (ie, would be detected if their entire prostate was examined histologically (which is, you…
The article did not discuss the advantages that my cat(s) obtain from not being crushed beneath the wheels of passing traffic on a more regular basis. [note to purists: "our cats" are kept strictly inside, but there are…
If a person knows their actual, true, legitimate diagnosis, there are many places for web help (google scholar, for example, can lead the persistent patient to research based PDF's that can be quite helpful). However,…
I suspect this is more complex than just frontrunning. An article from the Fed Reserve Bank of NY from 2011 discusses the whole process of being listed on an index. Firms selected have been outperforming the market for…
