Abstract and Summary:

Purpose of review

Ketogenic diets, which have been used to treat drug-refractory paediatric epilepsy for over 100 years, are becoming increasingly popular for the treatment of other neurological conditions, including mental illnesses. We aim to explain how ketogenic diets can improve mental illness biopathology and review the recent clinical literature.

Recent findings

Psychiatric conditions, such as schizophrenia, depression, bipolar disorder and binge eating disorder, are neurometabolic diseases that share several common mechanistic biopathologies. These include glucose hypometabolism, neurotransmitter imbalances, oxidative stress and inflammation. There is strong evidence that ketogenic diets can address these four fundamental diseases, and now complementary clinical evidence that ketogenic diets can improve the patients’ symptoms.
Well consent was given (by the parent), when the photo was taken.

Seems a little "too late" to retroactively remove consent some years later. That being said, I can see arguments either way that make sense. :/
Probably more like stab them with the spear he was carrying, or probably some of the people who were carrying guns, or potentially the noose hanging outside. Gaddafi wasn't shot with a gun. He still seemed to die when a crowd of people who hated him got a hold of him. A cop was beaten to death in front of the Capitol. You don't need a gun to commit violence.

And that's what the point of this was. Terrorism to push more of Congress to not certify the election.

Yeah, I believe your experience, and I think it highlights the issues we have with communication in medicine. While it may look like your doctor is just blindly Googling something, I would imagine they're probably using it as more of a reference source (at least that's what I often do). I regularly use radiopaedia.org just to look up a quick fact or find alternative examples of a diagnosis I'm working with.

It's like Googling coding questions and reading a StackOverflow thread. Obviously no programmer is solely relying on StackOverflow to do their job as no physician is solely relying on Google, UpToDate, or any other resource. They're simply quick references.
It's interesting that (I believe),

- bupropion is an antidepressant and an antismoking drug.

- naltrexone is an anti-opiate and anti-alcohol drug.

- bupropion/naltrexone together is a weight loss drug.

After trying bupropion as an antidepressant, I would really like to try adding naltrexone, but my prescriber didn't take me seriously, as I have neither an alcohol nor opiate nor weight problem.

I'm fascinated with the idea that when you try to increase a substance in your brain, it "fights back", you get tolerance, the receptors get dulled, and so on, but if you suppress a receptor, then more is produced, which works better in the long run.

Lol this is kind of funny given my other post but in addition to having worked in government I’ve also worked in healthcare.

I made about 50% of what I do now at that vendor and was glad to leave. I truly think if people had an incentive to make things better in government and healthcare then things would get better. It was a terrible job but a good starting point. I wonder if health care vendors paid as much as google or Facebook how good things could be.

In fact there are a few people that do try to make things better, but they value their progress over money. Same with teachers. We know they make a fraction of what a tech worker does but the value they provide is immense.

I don’t know if you’ve lived on the west coast and worked in tech but if you have surely you know someone who makes an absurd amount of money at Facebook, or google or whatever and also hates what they do. Imagine if you could pay people faybu bux but to make government work. They would do it. There would be an impassioned soul who is want to make government better and would do so. Instead the government pays half rate and gets half rate old dudes who want to retire in place.
Trends That Will Shape Work in 2021 and Beyond
I have a question about the allocation of blocks and the definition of "inhabited".

Firstly, from the numbers given, it seems that the average size of a block is a little less than a square kilometer.

In some places, major highways show up as thin ribbons in the high-resolution display [1]. One example that I am familiar with is Interstate 84 across the Poconos in North-Eastern Pennsylvania. I located one section of this highway in Google maps [1]. Using the distance-mearsuring tool to mark out a square kilometer, it was clear that, if these blocks were square kilometers, or some other compact shape of that area, the highway would not appear as thin as it does, and one would not be able to pick out the wiggles in the highway's route, which actually show up in considerable detail.

Maybe these roads (and also streams, which show even more detail) are additional features on the map, unfortunately also colored green, but if so, the selection of which ones to show seems rather arbitrary.

Regardless, there are also several sections where it seems implausible that there is any dwelling within a kilometer's distance of the highway - for example, either side of I-84 at [2], yet, on the census map, the highway threads through here as a thin green line on a white background ([3]; south-east quadrant.)

At the very least, it seems unlikely that the blocks are arranged as a uniform square grid.

All religions are frankly horrific at one point or another. And all of the countries (that I'm aware of) that are officially atheist are rather unpleasant, I think you might agree. Everyone's family tree is not an acyclic graph, and contains some ugly people. All of this up, in detail, is true, and everyone knows it. Having "seminars" on it simply makes it a club to be used to beat on someone you don't like. (Doing that here will likely get Dang to rough me up, perhaps even before I have pissed you off. And rightfully so; see the guidelines.)

The bottom line is, the Moslems I've known have been better people than anyone I've met who believes rights and truth are the only limits on what they would say.

Indeed. But almost invariably you’ll have to go to a court to do it.
Actually, I think they mean that pain doesn’t mean that you have to as well endure mental anguish. You can accept the pain. It doesn’t make the pain go away, but you’re not adding to it with your own mental anguish.
Let me put it this way: I can give Amazon zero attention and still know what they are going to do, simply by paying attention elsewhere.

Can you? I suspect you could too. We all can, none of this is a secret.

So…is Amazon a node in the political decision making apparatus if you can ignore them entirely and still predict their behavior? I would argue that is strong evidence Amazon is not a decision node when it comes to political decision making, they are a follower node. I would argue that all mainstream US businesses are follower nodes.

Non-political business questions? Sure. I agree US businesses like Amazon are mostly free to act independently. Shutting down Parler, though, was a political decision. An expression of power. In that realm, Amazon was not the one in charge.
Out of curiosity, what do she plan to do with that information? Why did she say it?

More transparency and readability for regulations sounds great. However, this part stuck out to me:

>Criminal prosecution based on regulatory offenses is most appropriate for those persons who know what is prohibited or required by the regulation and choose not to comply, thereby causing or risking substantial public harm. Criminal prosecutions based on regulatory offenses should focus on matters where a putative defendant had actual or constructive knowledge that conduct was prohibited.

This seems a step backwards. It would seem fairly easy to argue for almost any crime that one simply just didn't know it was a crime.
there are plenty of valid, piercing critiques of capitalism or markets, ways to highlight that things they have degraded and destroyed -- and yet you chose a critique that is not only less true than it has ever been, it is increasingly untrue as time goes on. you are shouting at the rising tide for leaving the beach dry. every system of production besides globalized markets has decisively, harshly more murderous and brutally malthusian than the present arrangement. i can only interpret this critique as a rationalization for feelings you are unable to interrogate rationally. your ability to evaluate truth is diminished by your emotions; you have a despair or hopelessness searching for its cause.
No, it shows the exceptional power of the US Government to impose consequences on people who make it easy for other people to organize a rebellion.

Attributing reduction in poverty rates primarily to Xi doesn't make much sense given the historical trends. See the world bank info[1] for a sense of the long term decline(1990-2016).

> Well-documented events

Was is it? Did George Floyd have a lethal amount of fentanyl in his system at time of death? Did the medical examiner not mention any damage to Floyd’s neck? Did the video show Floyd asking to be put on ground after resisting getting in the vehicle like the police asked? Did Keith Ellison do everything he could to keep the video of the arrest from coming out? Was Breanna Taylor‘s name on the warrant at her active address? And despite it being authorized to be a no-knock rate, did the police announce themselves? Did CNN use the literal chevron “fiery but mostly peaceful protests“?

“Well documented” is a very misleading way to describe this summer’s violent unrest.
> this split in reception/bug prevalence

a split between the older gen and next gen consoles/PC? Or perhaps a gradient of bug tolerance, compounded by how much issues each user experiences (depending on the hardware used). Though I've heard that it's not just the bugs that cause issues
You miss the point of the original one. When I wrote it the idea was that it is functionally pure and guaranteed to be such by the compiler (the annotation was removed because readln is not pure for obvious reasons).

Most uses of loops break down to map, fold, or similar being able to use them cleanly can avoid a lot of bugs and API plasticity.
This doesn't make sense to me. They've always had a solution to batching: minimum order size for free shipping. They've always had plenty of low margin items.

When they launched pantry here a couple years ago suddenly stuff I was _already_ buying regularly on Amazon (pasta, tomato paste, olive oil) I was blocked from buying unless I signed up for pantry and filled a box.
having two strong parties seems like an inevitable artifact of first past the post voting (lesser of two evils thinking, "wasted" votes, etc.), and unless "the people" can constitutionally get something like ranked choice voting done federally, i'm not sure what the way forward is. any thoughts?
Neat!

The capital 'S' suffering of poverty and the suffering of sport are so obviously incomparable, why approach pedantry?
I like the message, but I'm not sure how generalizable it is. Suffering with an end date attached is way more tolerable than sudden, unplanned suffering. This is why people endure hard studies(PhD, STEM/Medical School) internship, infant rearing, you name it. I would also claim that physical suffering mentioned is somewhat easier to suppress than mental suffering, in fight-or-flight response context because we have a way clearer consensus of what is not-ok when it comes to physical pain, making the detection of it easier. (The author mention his pain not being back/knee/not serious made him keep going)

But for most of us suffering is not planned/predictable; it comes suddenly, unplanned and often is cyclic/wave-like pattern. For the case of cyclic pattern, telling oneself "suffering will eventually end" doesn't help that much because around the corner when it ends, looms the next batch of suffering again.

This is why "suffering will eventually end" sounds like a nice comforting advice to new parents/student/employee but is a terrible advice to someone that is going in-and-out of depression, in a life crisis, etc.
>complicates implementing better, longer-term solutions.

The problem is that nobody is actually implementing them. Comprehensive public housing doesn't exist. There are no construction sites, there is no program, there is no money, there is no will. It's just talk. The only time it has a real impact on anyone's housing situation is when it's the reason to block a private development and maintain status quo.

Comprehensive public transit doesn't exist. The agency is in year 5 of 10 for community consultations about adding 1.5 more miles of joke to the pile of jokes. We know how fast it can expand and what it costs. Becoming remotely as useful as TNCs or scooters or whatever would take 3 generations to build and consume the entire productive capacity of 5. Everyone knows this, which is why no one is seriously trying. The realest that the proposal will ever be is when it is listed as the rationale for blocking scooters/TNCs/whatever.

Credibility on the right way to solve a problem is earned through progress. The "real solution" people will say they don't have the capital needed to make progress. Well, part of being a real solution is having a workable funding story. If the opposition is reliably defeating attempts to fund it, there you go. Not a real solution.
> products, beverages, breakfast items and other household products in bulk for a $5 per month fee

Is this separate from Amazon Prime?

> Prime Pantry launched in 2014 and, similar to Amazon Fresh,

Was Amazon Fresh the precursor to Prime Pantry?

>In an email to Bloomberg, an Amazon spokesperson explained the company’s rationale for discontinuing Prime Pantry,

Why is this author parroting a Bloomberg article? Hasn't bloomberg already reported on this?

Is it just me or is Amazon bloated with so many deals and 15% off here 10 % off there? It seems annoying.

> The comment that states "you dont see 'commie' being dropped in the workplace nor should 'nazi,' it's just slandering" is the false equivalency of the century

That comment about slandering is a bs and a person making it is a hypocrite. There were people, whose clothes literally manifested that they were Nazis. Camp Auschwitz, 6MWE, there is no guesswork, they themselves declared that they are Nazis.
Sure, but in finance it's not clean. It's not like one fund is getting 10% every single year and the other 7% every single year - there's high variability. The fund that'd underperforming may expect that the other fund's strategy is likely to blow up once every 20 years and thus not be worth it. It takes decades to get statistically significant results, and by then the world has changed.

Highly creative work and when deadlines are involved the work becomes spurty (sprints) with corner cutting (scope reduction) to meet unrealistic and over committed deadlines.

Why would someone with prime use prime pantry if it was free shipping anyway?

Yes, but we would send in armed troops to stop them and reverse their actions.

I guess your point is the Super Intelligence has fully infiltrated our government, military and law enforcement.

It is far more than just the internet.
I also don’t agree with this and might even argue the opposite. Nevertheless, I think in general de/centralization is orthogonal to censoring inflammatory actors. That always comes back to who are the moderators and what are their stances on censorship.
Who do you follow? I follow people like Eric Weinstein and block all the self promo people shilling get rich quick. And my hallway is still bad.
My issue with effort estimates is that it is taboo to report estimates with uncertainty (think how silly that sounds). I'll often give a low-end / high-end and the person asking for the estimate will tell me they want a single number. If you did this in physics you would get laughed and for good reason. It's bad science, and it's bad forecasting.

You should never claim better precision than you know. It's often more accurate to say "more than an hour but less than a week" than to say "6 hours". We learn scientific precision in middle school... why is modern workflow management still so bad at uncertainty propagation?

"If a President shall not have been chosen before ..."

"If, by reason of death, resignation, removal from office, inability, or failure to qualify ...”

So Biden will not have been 'chosen' or did not 'qualify' ?

If the Jan 6 vote did not happen or if the results were not approved - Joe Biden was still unambiguously 'chosen' by in a free and fair election by all accounts?

Would the factual legitimacy of his election result in SCOTUS validating his claim to the Presidency?

Can the voting procedure (Act of 1887) [1] meaningfully deny the Biden his ascension to President?

VP Pence himself (a lawyer) indicated that he did not have the authority to stop the process.

It seems pretty ambiguous, and that legal scholars would be all over the place with this, no?

But my question was rhetorical - to illustrate that there's a wall of legal ambiguity in that situation, enough to enable considerable populist rancour to take hold, whereupon the winner may not have enough political momentum to actually take power, irrespective of what some entity like SCOTUS says.

Would Democrats even remotely accept anything other that Biden as President?

Why would they ever submit to 'Pelosi' as being President - which would be an admission of defeat, or even or possibly another election?

If the 'election was rigged' - doesn't that invalidate the entire Congress as well? Including Pelosi? And all the Senators?

If a free and fair election were already held in November, and it was overturned for political reasons, what would be the point of having another one, if the results can be ignored on the basis of populism?

It would be total chaos.

I knew about the story of Phil Katz having read this article before and was also a user back in the day, but just recently watched the movie 'Leaving Las Vegas'. Reading the PK article again in the link reminded me so much about the movie. If you haven't seen the movie it's worth watching and maybe an insight into the problems he was going through.
The timing of this article is interesting. I've been putting off going to the dentist to have my back molar pulled. I've had this toothache since December but the pain has intensified the past week or so. It's a constant low-level pain that spreads to my front teeth and vamps up as I try to sleep.

I'm wondering if I should "tough it out" and suffer through the pain until the molar completely dies and crumbles away? The process has already started and the tooth is a jagged mess. Will the pain then stop or will my mouth become infected?

I work at a homeless shelter and they suffer through toothaches, often without medication of any kind. At least I can take ibuprofen when the pain gets too much.

Is suffering the dentist of the homeless?

Update: Thanks for the comments, they are helpful. I will make a dentist appointment in the morning.
Well the problem at present is you have to moderate such that all content is within the Overton window. Only the left and right have different views on what does and does not fit inside this window. For example right wingers want to argue about the role of trans rights in womens sports. Much of the left and Twitter consider this to be outside of the Overton window.
Should be stated that for awhile a supporters of a certain president were fawning over Putin and Assad. All while Kremlin used the supply convoy to Syria as a pretext to arm groups like Hezbollah with heavy weapons like T-90 tanks. The territorial grab in Ukraine, downing of MH17, and bolstering of classical enemies of the US gained a lot of attention.

This isn't even addressing some Republicans flying to Moscow on the 4th of July. Would love to know what that was really all about.
> any thoughts?

I'm an independent. I like some of the ideas of the Right that they believe that States are governments to experiment with. I'd suggest FPTP and other solutions to just attempt to do this locally and in a State or two. It will get traction, if it's worth it to the governed population. That's my suggestion, start small.
