I think the overturning of chevron deference actually might make it so that politicians are just as qualified to make medical decisions for their constituents as doctors. It’s not a good era for the Supreme Court
They began testing a vaccine for smoking based cancer a few months ago. Emphysema and COPD are still things to worry about, but cancer might not be for long.
It’s surprising that you intended to agree with the original commenter whom you replied to, but sometimes it do be like that.
Innocent and guilty have formal legal definitions and informal, everyday ones. OJ Simpson was found innocent of murder, but I think it’s probably pretty likely that he did it with intent. Those can both be true.
You know how some bras are just made out of spandex/Lycra and have basically zero support?
I was wearing one of those for things like Morris dancing (think of worse Irish step dancing, basically a lot of hopping up and down), not realizing that it did nothing and was probably much more revealing than I intended.
An actual sports bra isn’t exactly uncomfortable, but it’s definitely not cozy to wear while lounging around the house. It’s much better for jumping though and keeps everything where it belongs.
I’m infinitely disappointed that the response was not: only if you’re going to lie during the interview
My mom died when I was 12, but she was ill and not really participating in my life for much longer. There are some things that I missed out on because I didn’t have a maternal figure, but they’re pretty minor. For example, I learned as a 29 year old with D cups that there’s a difference between a sports bra and a bra without an underwire (exercise is much more comfortable now). People might disagree, but I don’t think that’s a huge deal not to know, and almost any adult woman as well as many men would have been able to tell me that, had I thought to ask.
I guess I’d say: if you’re raising a child alone or with a partner of the same gender, just get a comprehensive health/sex Ed teacher. Otherwise, I don’t think there’s much of a need for any specific gender in child raising.
thank you. I was surprised that he wouldn’t endorse Harris, but he wants back in on the Middle East
It’s cheaper to eat out? How?! I work at a bakery in Germany and the bag for taking this away is more expensive than the water for washing a plate by far. Even if it’s standing room only, that’s not really something that needs pricing pressure, people will figure it out. We even have tax breaks for dining-in here, making it even cheaper comparatively, but that’s just because of the pandemic and is going to end soon.
Ich, die bis jetzt dachte, die Made ist das Stammwort für das Mädchen und das Mädel: Wo ist der Witz?
Mein (deutscher) Mann: ich glaube, niemand außer dir würde “prächtige Made” für einen schonen Kosenamen halten
I don’t know anything about tech, so please bear with your mom’s work friend (me) being ignorant about technology for a second.
I thought the whole issue with generative ai as it stands was that it’s equally confident in truth and nonsense, with no way to distinguish the two. Is there actually a way to get it to “remember” true things and not just make up things that seem like they could be true?
You love to see someone incriminate themselves while trying to suppress labor rights.
In their comment history, I see discussing exercise, talking about their (positive) social interaction with their community, and arguing (politely) about niche leftist issues. You may not like it, but this is the ideal lemmy lifestyle. Yours is a bunch of catty speculation at other people needing help because they disagree with you.
What happens in other people’s heads is not my business. Even if the imagined protagonist looks and acts like me, they’re not and I don’t have a single stake in it.

They’re treated like shit by patients and their experience will basically always be considered irrelevant if a brand new doctor disagrees (I get why, but it’s still gotta be irritating). I’d be rude too.
Basically a reverse gallows with a horrible name
> The upright jerker was an execution method and device intermittently used in the United States during the 19th and early 20th century. Intended to replace hangings, the upright jerker did not see widespread use and was withdrawn from use by the 1930s.
This is a spelling bee clone (or rather a fork, but the dev calls it a clone) that stopped updating a couple of days ago. Has anyone heard anything? It was my favorite version, so I’ll be sad if it’s gone forever.
The code for it is public (but I’m 0% tech-savvy and have no idea what to do with that), so it’s also possible that others have clones of it. If anyone knows of any (specifically of this one, not general spelling bee clones), that would also be much appreciated.
Edit: I went back through the archives and it’s probably vacation, lol. There’s a week or so missing from the last two summers as well. I am surprised that it’s not automated, and I’ll be supporting the developer as soon as possible, because that’s hella impressive.
Hi, I’m in a classic college crunch, even though I’m fucking 32 and getting my master’s. I have a paper due yesterday and no extension, but I’m hoping they don’t check the mailbox until Monday.
Onto the problem: I’m exhausted and fried from too much stress and weed, and too little food and sleep (zero hunger though, plus I’m puking from stress, so… I’m eating soup when I can and starting with good breakfasts). I have to write, but I can’t think because I’m so tired. I can’t sleep because I’m so stressed. I can’t calm down, because I haven’t written the paper. Weed ostensibly helps with the first two but very much not with the third one.
I wrote two sentences (the first two in the introduction) in 35 minutes, so trying to push through is… inefficient. What do I do?
Edit: I have already discussed and agreed with my fiancé, we’re not buying any more weed at least until I’m done with my studies, so no worries there.
When you look at a picture of three marbles, you don’t have to count them to know that there are three there, your brain just automatically knows that, but you have to count to see whether there are 17 or 18. I remember reading about a study of this for various animals. If I recall correctly, humans can typically recognize 4-5, but can train up to 7 or 8, but crows or possibly an insect have a really high quantity that they can just sense.
