The dominance of America really started after WWII, but before that the British Empire spread the English language around the world.

If France had won the Seven Years War or the Napoleonic Wars, French would probably still be the global lingua franca, because people didn't choose which language to learn, they learned the language of whichever colonial power controlled their lands.

Not to diminish the difficulty of the existing curriculum, but it doesn't seem fair or sustainable to ask for patients to train and guide each physician they see in how to work with neurodivergent individuals. I'm sure there is much from formal education that new physicians don't retain, but that doesn't mean it is not worth teaching.

I’m grateful to be employed again. Was laid off in August, and without work for the first time in over twenty years. I’ve learned that I do not do well without work, especially given that my career field is more mission-driven than money-driven.

I’m grateful that I made connections who jumped to help once I got over feeling like I shouldn’t, and I’m grateful that my time without work was blessedly short, compared to others.

I’m grateful that I’ll have the opportunity to pay it forward for a few people in January, and I hope that I can find other ways to help folks beyond that.

And I’m grateful that I won whatever genetic lottery left me with no chronic issues, with the ability to run fast, and heal quickly from injury.
I don't think the question will land on the issue if people have a right to spread false information. Instead the big question will be if people have a right to decide which information is false and which is not. If people do not have this right, and we instead want a small elected people to have a exclusive right to define which information is false, then what form of process should those people be elected.

A common argument of anti-censorship advocacy is to only allow censorship if a court of law has agrees to it, and then only if that law is identical in every country. Only then do we have a direct link between elected people who has mandate to define what is true and what is false.

With the covid chemical in question one should ask why the person who suggested horse drugs was not charged and found guilty in the country where they reside. Why did the law allow people to provide harmful medical advice in time of a pandemic?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Sunrise_(World_War_I... came close to a separate peace; I have a book I haven't finished about one of the negotiators, and it seems as if some sort of side deal might've been in progress but was blown up when soviet intelligence found out.

I don't have any strong evidence for this hypothesis; it's just the only one I've yet run across that (a) assumes Hitler to be rational*, but would still (b) explain how Hitler wound up in the bunker‡, when he'd already noted in his diary that Stalingrad meant his war plans (which had required not only Caucasian but also Iranian oil) were FUBAR.

It's certainly true that at the war's end, Nazi commanders were doing whatever they could to manage to surrender on the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Paperclip side of things and not on the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Osoaviakhim side.

If Hitler had been thinking the US and USSR were both interested in using the resources of the 3rd Reich against the other, he would have been correct: where he would've been wrong is in thinking he could cut a wholesale deal when they both wound up picking up most of what they wanted at retail.

* although after seeing Musk/TWTR play out, I'm a lot more open to the normally ludicrous idea that the top Nazis were a group of occult-addled meth-heads than I would've been 5 years ago...

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking. In my wife's hospital's case, a lot of the nurses were part time due to family requirements. When the hospital demanded they go full time or quit, they simply quit and went part time at neighboring hospitals. You can't go making unreasonable demands of your employees when the demand for labor is larger than the supply.

> America was an economic backwater until the 1900s.

The US was the largest economy in the world by 1890.

It should be obvious that it wasn't an economic backwater even before that.

By 1850 it bigger than Russia, Italy, Spain, Germany, or France.

The US stopped being an economy backwater sometime in the early 1800s. Well over a century earlier than your claim.

In some states yes, I suppose that's the case. But in others (e.g., NJ) when you lease, you lease the property. Even if the owner sells, the lease is binding.

That said, even so, the balance of power is asymmetric. The landlord has a lawyer, the tenant likely cannot.

And let's face, all things being "equal" the political system is going to tilt to the money.

I mostly stopped reading it in ~2021/2022, but from ~2015-2021 it was getting progressively more hostile to tech, fearful of anything new, etc.

I skimmed the online list of articles for the past few months and it does look better (but not 1993-1997 high water mark, or 1997-2021 still ok). There have been two different editors in chief since 2021, maybe that was a factor.
Abstract

Microglia, the innate immune cells of the brain, influence Alzheimer’s disease (AD) progression and are potential therapeutic targets. However, microglia exhibit diverse functions, the regulation of which is not fully understood, complicating therapeutics development. To better define the transcriptomic phenotypes and gene regulatory networks associated with AD, we enriched for microglia nuclei from 12 AD and 10 control human dorsolateral prefrontal cortices (7 males and 15 females, all aged >60 years) before single-nucleus RNA sequencing. Here we describe both established and previously unrecognized microglial molecular phenotypes, the inferred gene networks driving observed transcriptomic change, and apply trajectory analysis to reveal the putative relationships between microglial phenotypes. We identify microglial phenotypes more prevalent in AD cases compared with controls. Further, we describe the heterogeneity in microglia subclusters expressing homeostatic markers. Our study demonstrates that deep profiling of microglia in human AD brain can provide insight into microglial transcriptional changes associated with AD.

>finally saw an art project I actually think makes sense as an NFT

I feel like the idea of NFTs representing some right of redemption or ownership in the physical world was a fairly common NFT scheme / use-case back in the day.

Am I missing something?
I’m in a comical situation that me and my Mexican father-in-law mutually refer to each other as usted despite the fact we’d both be better off switching to informal, except for the fact that neither of us want to offend the other by being so casual.

Something to consider is if you might have children and grandchildren who will stumble on them someday. One of my favorite things to do when I visited my grandparents was to go down into their basement and flip through their collections of Life, Popular Mechanics and National Geographic. It gave me a window into life in the decades before I was born in a way that history classes never could. As much as I love the Internet Archive, I would not have found clicking through a digital magazine nearly as absorbing.
Some companies, e.g. Square Enix and Ubisoft, invested significant amounts of money to NFT-ify their main products. The first of these NFT games were released recently. Not sure how they are doing but the previous SE CEO was pushing crypto a lot and then he got replaced by another guy.

Wonder if they are still on this path.

I had a reasonable collection of Transactor magazine from the ‘80s. They were formative to my childhood and my love of writing software for my C64. But I had to let them go. I found a good and appreciative home for them and freed up some space. And they are freely available online.
> America was an economic backwater until the 1900s.

That seems like a stretch.

My understanding is that plantation cash crops grown in the South like Cotton were a major export in the early-mid 19th Century.

And then of course Standard Oil was incorporated in 1870.

Maybe the effect of American industrialization didn't have a big effect internationally until the ~1890s and onward, but I'd hardly say the USA was a backwater throughout the industrial revolution.

> Before I knew it, a not-insignificant percentage of each day was being dedicated to responding to idiocy on social media.

I feel like this is an addiction, the high from noticing "Oh my god, you god damn idiot, let me write why you're so stupid, oh I'm so glad I'm not as stupid as this person!". Getting the validation from other people is even more thrilling. I guess it's why social media mobs are so "popular" too, there's even a book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/So_You've_Been_Publicly_Shamed

Or should that be "were popular"? Luckily Twitter is close to death now.

I have a feeling it's related to loneliness epidemic ( https://duckduckgo.com/?q=loneliness+epidemic ) and people looking for their connections not through friends ("I need to be vulnerable? no way!") but by anonymous participation in online communication/shit-flinging-fest of every comment section.

Covid was also interesting, you got to walk around in public and think "What a fucking idiot, I'm glad I'm better than that person", and it worked both ways, someone wearing a mask? What a sheep! Someone with no mask? "Must be a stupid Trump voter!". Someone with their nose showing outside their mask? Etc, etc...
Yes, several, with the Vector 1.0 specification.

Some of them (Kendryte K230, a MCU) have already shipped to people.

Years ago, some chips shipped, with 0.7.1 (incompatible, pre-ratification). One of them is the TH1520, SoC in some SBCs released earlier this year.

Clearly a non-zero amount, but not all. And therein lies the subtlety that cannot be handled by internet forums. And probably not by people at all, other than some politically unpalatable way of putting dollar amounts on externalities.
Yet there are still Christian theologians and philosophers who actual philosophers have to spend time debating and refuting, and they invoke arguments like this. Anselm's argument is also set in exams for philosophy students, as something to find problems with.

With a heavy dose of Blade Runner too. Sephiroth is pretty much gaming's Roy Batty. The dynamic between him and Cloud is even very close to that of Batty and Deckard.

It's ok though, in the 90s, homaging Blade Runner in Japanese media was a total belt onion -- something people did because "it was the style at the time".
As a nonfiction author I would rather have my pdf books (with a donation link in them) up on sites like archive.org than not have the these sites exist.

This is an excellent question, and one that I think we should ask ourselves, every day.

Most times, I think we can usually come up with something.

I knew a guy that used to say “If you’re having trouble feeling grateful, start by being grateful that you’re not on fire, and work your way up, from there.” This was a chap who had, at one time, been on fire (and had the scars to show it).
I see neurodivergent individuals (or at least, significantly neurodivergent that a more individualized approach is needed) relatively rarely in my field of work (adult oncology, where the average patient is much older and has often had significant exposure to the healthcare system). Every patient I've seen has been very different in terms of needs and their prior experiences and so I have difficulty imagining a "standardized" curriculum for these patients that is specific enough to add value but broad enough to apply to every medical student, but I'm happy to be corrected on this.

And, I mean, if we're talking about neurodivergence more broadly and including people who generally "pass" as neurotypical, then that's a huge chunk of the population. Really, any time you talk to a patient, you should be assessing where they're at, in terms of general understanding and preferences, and should always tailor your approach to an individual.
Huh, having learned Spanish as a non-native speaker, I was taught that the two forms had more to do with the closeness of the relationship than they did with some sort of social rank or superiority.

For example, a family member who you would address as "sir" (at least in the Southern U.S.), maybe a parent or grandparent, might be taken aback if you addressed them with the formal "usted" in Spanish, because it didn't imply respect, but that you didn't consider the person close. Another example would be prayer, where God is definitely superior to us, but you would address Him with the less formal "tu", because the love He has for us makes that a close and personal relationship. (I'm not even sure that the word "formal" is the right one to use here, as like I say, it's not quite the same as in English.)

You could also have a business conversation where you'd use "usted" without necessarily implying respect, because "tu" sounds out of place for a distant relationship like that. (I.e. using "tu" wouldn't be disrespectful, so much as it would just be weird or akward.)

Am I misunderstanding the usage of the two forms, or could someone enlighten me a bit more on the subject? Is the dynamic similar in other T-V languages, or is it used more to denote social status/tiers?
I'm grateful for my kids, my wife, and that both our parents are alive. I am grateful to work on projects I enjoy and to have the means to pay for my kids' schooling and for yearly health screenings.
The parents are obviously and appropriately advocates for neurodivergence.

But honestly, to your point, this is more an example of shitty medicine, especially in the ED. My family had similar arguments when hospitalists refused to give me pain medication 3 hours out of a spinal fusion. Or when my wife was bleeding out from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy and the ER guy kept telling her she had food poisoning.

One of the problems is that front line medicine, especially in the US spends alot of time dealing with the poorest, sickest, and dumbest among us.
There is a recent episode of Jason Alexander's (who played George Costanza) podcast, Really? No, Really, where they interview Dan O'Keefe[0]. O'Keefe's childhood experiences with his father's Festivus traditions were what inspired the Seinfeld episode, where O'Keefe was a writer. He said that making an episode about Festivus wasn't expecting to go anywhere and we're so surprised how popular it became.

NFTs are collectibles built on top of crypto, though. They're not the same thing as Bitcoin/Ethereum (which have much more utility, and crucially, are fungible).

The vast, vast majority of collectibles that have ever been made are valueless, or nearly so. Just look at e.g. all the CCGs that have ever existed, vs how many of them have retained value.
Once you get Home Assistant to control your thermostat, you can add the excellent HomeKit integration to HA. That exposes all or some of your devices in HA to Apple Home. You can then access them like other Apple Home devices, including via Siri if that’s interesting to you. It’s great.

That's a complete dodge, and exhibits exactly the kind of arrogance people complain about when physicians ignore what patients have to say. People have valid opinions and expectations of their own healthcare or that of loved ones, no matter whether they can design or refine a medical school curriculum or not. It's silly to suggest that nothing they have to say is valid if they can't. People know when they or their family are receiving good care, and when they are not. To reject their experiences is, again, arrogance.

The big advantage of a flow battery is that "recharging" can be just about as fast as filling up a gasoline-powered car.

The energy is in liquid form... you just drain the used liquid, fill it up with "charged" liquid, and you're back on the road.

The "dead" liquid is "recharged", but that happens in tanks at the fueling station. The car doesn't have to sit there and wait.
The truth of these arguments also seemingly removes any degree of faith from Christianity, because it's been proven that God now exists. Have always been puzzled why they want to prove this given the circumstances of needing faith.

I forgot what I tried last time but here is another youtube video I tried-- this worked but gave me slightly unexpected results.

blob:https://streamslide.io/99258fa2-299a-4db1-9ded-12db2a74923f#...

The tool detected 200 Slides instead of just 5-10 because the presenter used a pointer / cursor highlighter to point at each line.

Maybe you can add a user control to set Sensitivity of slide transition detection -- how much of a change and what type of change from frame to frame should count as a new slide.

Another advanced feature could be grouping all similar looking Slides in series after the fact and presenting a choice to user which one(s) to keep or discard from the set of near duplicates.
I spent many hours (back in the 1.8 days) in a Ruby focused irc chat room with some guys, many who went on to found relatively interesting companies (hey Evan and Chris :) ). I was just a teen, Rails was huge, and _why was writing some of the most inspiring code of all time.

At the time, to inspect what you could do with an instance, I wrote `my_thing.methods.sort - Object.new.methods.sort` many a time. It's great to see features making IRB even better after all these years.

The paths to things in the nix store have hashes in them, so they are not intuitive at all (and they’re not intended to be). Inside an environment, a program like Perl could still be located at /use/bin/perl, but it will be a symbolic link to the nix store. Alternatively, your environment might have a PATH variable that mentions all the necessary nix store paths. It depends on how you built that environment, which will depend on what the programs you run in that environment require.

On the other hand, your personal files I your home directory are left alone; they don't get put in the nix store. An environment that needs access to your personal files (such as your desktop) simply has your home directory mounted into it.
