Submitted once before, but not discussed at the time.

It more or less complies with Betteridge's law of headlines, but since publication, the article was amended:

> Editor’s Note: The original version of this article failed to disclose that some of the quoted critics of orthodontics have financial ties to alternative, direct-to-consumer therapies. While the criticisms raised by these experts pre-date these financial ties by decades, and Undark’s reporting — both prior to and after publication — supports the story’s premise that there is disagreement within the discipline over many of the purported medical benefits of traditional orthodontics, these relationships should have been acknowledged in the original article. They have now been added, along with a response from the individual experts involved.

Taking compounded tirzepatide ($6000/yr for 15 mg/wk) and lost ~120 lbs. Ironically, sugar tastes a lot stronger, and food generally tastes better, but I don't want as much. Haven't seen any other changes or improvements.

Huh, nitializing the submodule with GH requires key-based auth. Learned a lot just setting it up locally.

Stretching the metaphor, but your jellybeans were in a group to start with, so halving it makes sense.

Changing the sign is harder, but let's say your group of jellybeans was actually a loan, and you borrowed from two people... beans / -2

Cool, how should she get started?

I'm looking for a similar change - if you don't mind my asking, are they still hiring?

I honestly don't know what to say about someone who can't recognize their own intestinal blockage. Perhaps ask patients to keep a BM journal and flag anomolies?

> We should not divert resources from vaccines to immortality

Is there any risk of that? Probably the biggest challenge vaccination faces is uptake, there's no shortage of funding.

I'm failing to find any study linking BVO to thyroid impairment in humans - obviously we're not going to dose people, but even a low-quality food journal correlation would be nice. So far all I can find is animals and BeWo. I'm nonetheless OK with seeing it discouraged (banning feels weird next to the ATF), I was just hoping for better data.

If you can find some and share, thanks in advance!

This study was measuring the effectiveness of trained suppression - not distraction or letting go, but specifically not imagining the event. I found it surprising, but at the same time avoidance might just have weakened the mental strength for doing exactly that.
