  1. This proposal seems solid. I personally also like how many scientific journals have added a mandatory AI disclosure in publication. Practically it's one or two sentences how (or if) Gen AI was used.

    "ChatGPT model GPT-5.2 was used to identify spelling errors"

    "Google Gemini 3 was used to generate the abstract of the paper".

  2. It doesn't happen in non-diabetic people. It's different in type 2 diabetics who will see large swings in blood fat and glucose after meals.
  3. I'm skeptical that paleo diet would be healthy for long term. There are studies where they find atherosclerosis in pre-industrial hunter-gatherer remains. It's called HORUS study.
  4. > In 2013, meanwhile, researchers in the Netherlands subjected 17 healthy adults to temperatures of 15-16C (59-60.8F) for six hours a day.

    It seems that that these articles often discuss cold plunges, cold showers etc. but the rigorous research is often conducted simply via rooms with reduced temperature combined with light clothing.

  5. I remember reading about this. A key piece of information which should perhaps be in the title of the video is that the "fix" is transient.
  6. To me it's interesting that some type 1 diabetics prefer to manage the disease with a carbohydrate-restricted diet, but some type 1 diabetics prefer to use completely opposite strategy and choose to eat a low-fat diet instead. Here is an article written by a type 1 diabetic with a non-diabetic blood glucose levels on a low-fat diet:

    https://www.masteringdiabetes.org/type-1-diabetes-diet/

    I'm not sure what explains the discrepancy. The medical guidelines seem to recommend the same diet for type 1 diabetics as anyone else.

  7. This is good advice for pre-diabetics and type 2 diabetics but in type 1 diabetes exercise after meal often makes things worse. It makes insulin dosing less predictable.
  8. That sounds more sensible. I was thinking maybe the error caused DKA due to pumps suspending all insulin overnight or something.
  9. In type 1 diabetes lack of insulin can lead to a condition called diabetic ketoacidosis which is deadly. In type 2 diabetes it's not usually possible.
  10. Another Option::unwrap incident perchance?
  11. One approach is to create views for the required data and then just select the columns which are needed. The joins will be pruned by the query planner if they are not needed, so there is no need for conditional joins.
  12. This sounds like a faulty CGM which is very common. With these values normal A1C, <5.7% doesn't sound plausible.
  13. If I'm looking at this right it's around 413 uses in a month in this particular web page. I don't know if they somehow distinguish actual use versus "trying it out". I think it's great these things are considered but I'm a bit skeptical they actually increase physical safety of people at risk. Maybe these buttons increase perceived safety, which is a good thing?
  14. In my opinion this kind of genetic research on autism strengthens the view that mild to moderate autistic traits are inherited features, not pathological diseases. The heritability estimates of autistic traits are very high, even higher than e.g. human height. I don't want to undermine the real symptoms of anyone with autism, I'm sure they can be a real pain. But I'm skeptical of e.g. treating autism with therapy, it reminds me of conversion therapies.
  15. How much caffeine you consume on average? Some might get withdrawal symptoms asleep if the intake is very high.
  16. Often people are interested in exact quantitative statistics like IQR, median, top/bottom deciles which are commonly represented in box plots. The alternatives are visually simpler but they contain less quantitative information.
  17. Im not familiar with this type of research but the appendix figures and tables are very useful to grasp what methodology they are using here. I wondered how they quantify the responses to numeric values to compare with the gold standard. It seems they simply ask the LLM to respond with a numeric answer
  18. I assume you are familiar with Insomnia, does that work for you?
  19. Stock photographers are already having issues with piracy due to very powerful AI watermark removal tools. And I suspect the companies are using content of these people to train these models too. .
  20. Depends on the asset, but usually salaries follow inflation more closely than investments.
  21. I was surprised by the fact that people with slight myopia often need reading glasses (presbyopia) later in life compared to people without myopia. Myopia might not be that "pathological", more like early life adaptation for certain visual stimuli.
  22. The extreme version of HTML first: classless CSS libraries. IMO every web developer should be aware that these are sometimes a great option https://github.com/dbohdan/classless-css
  23. I wish more studies like this would separate the effect of things people have no control of. Attorneys clothing can have big impact. But also eye color, skin color, etc. can have impact. In my opinion there is important difference between these sources and how acceptable they are.
  24. R has a lot high quality packages which implement e.g. frequently used sophisticated regression analysis algorithms. Python has these too but in my experience they are not that well tested and suffer from bugs.
  25. Maybe gauging the depth of the water with a lead weight.
  26. Newer CSS features like flexbox, grid and media queries were added to reduce the need for frameworks like bootstrap.
  27. It can but it won't result in surprise bill because the bandwidth is capped.
  28. Very cool. I hope some day all autoimmune diseases are prevented and no lifelong treatment is necessary. A lot of exciting research around the hygiene hypothesis, even though the progress has been slow, it's going forward.
  29. Will this increase the risk of hyperopia? Afaik its common people are both myopic and hyperopic at the same time
  30. In biology they use terms like "fitness" or "reproductive success" for this. "Superior" is a bit loaded since many people have more or less neanderthal dna.
