  • I'm not a brain surgeon. I'm not even in medicine.Cog neuro.

    But my point was I know a lot about a complex system. And even compared to it, the endocrine system looks insanely more complex.

    But also that clip was pretty funny. I'll save it back for the next time I sound pretentious.

  • Agree. And also. Scientists have been using and running statistical software analysis since like the late 70s. Everyone acts like we don't have tried and true methods already.

    Some machine learning might be useful though in research but idk if it's fair to call it "ai". Idk it depends on your definition.

    Actually in the research I do, I was looking into papers that measured a lot more variables than what is commonly done. (Usually two things are compared) And the authors used a formula to determine interactive effects based on which factors aligned or didn't align and by how much.

    This type of statistics is close to how ai works as it gives "weights" to different inputs.

    But this was a method the authors came up with and they fully disclosed how it worked and acknowledged it was only one of many approaches to determining these interactive effects.

    The research I'm referring to was about vision. Accommodation and vergence. Which function together. And you can manipulate them so they don't match and see which one has a stronger influence on the perception of depth. However, many other factors effect depth perception. But it's nearly impossible to study how these each contribute when multiples other factors are present. Some matching the true depth. Some giving an incorrect cue. Which cue, when wrong, overrides the correct one? If two matching cure are present, is there one cue that's wrong, but has a stronger impact on the perception ?

    These things are difficult to determine without literally thousands of studies.

  • Im white and Ive been around other whites who will casually drop the n word. To see how I react. Or will say something blatantly racist even without the nword.

    For example I was viewing a rental property and the landlord said something like "you don't have to worry about the darkies , there ain't any around here except a few blocks over and they don't bother nobody".

    At first I didn't know wtf he was talking about. Warlocks?

    I also was only half listening as I had noticed how shitty the place was and already decided no.

    Racist landlord was just cherry on top.

    Anywho.

    I swear it's a way for them to find each other.

    They also seem to assume that since I'm white I'm with them on being racist. Or at the very least don't mind that kind of talk.

    I've only had a few of these encounters in my life. It's not something I experience often. So it always catches me off guard.

    But my buddy who is a mechanic, white, interacts with the public a lot more. He says it happens to him a lot more. Like they assume they are in the company of similar minds.

    Nope.

    My point being that. Yes I agree. It's advertising to find similar types of people. To tell them they are welcome. And to promote it as normal.

    It's done on a big scale but happens a lot on an individual level too.

  • I have 2 cats. One is from a catery. My cousin bought him and then didn't want him anymore.

    He is a seal point Siamese. He's certainly gorgeous. But he also has hip dysplasia. And an eye problem where one eye doesn't align with the other. And he seems to be farsighted. (Can't see up close very well but can see farther away).

    I love him but I think. Why would anyone intentionally breed animals knowing that they have a high risk of health problems.He will always be unhealthy. Always have a disability.

    He can't jump up. I had to put cat stairs everywhere for him. I don't mind but I know he's in pain. I know he has bad days. I know he struggles to play because he can't see the toy up close. He has been deprived of a healthy life because someone thought his coloring was more important than his quality of life.

    Idk. It just makes me sad sometimes when I think about it.

  • I don't claim to be an expert on the endocrine system. But I know enough to know it's the most complicated system in the body. Possibly more complicated than the brain (my area of expertise).

    And only recently did scientists figure out how to high jack the endocrine system for weight loss and not without plenty of side effects.

    So in order for a baby to come to term, it must be exposed to different hormones , at different levels, at different times that come from the mother.

    We can't produce all of those hormones. We can't even currently determine all of hormone needs of a fetus. So there is no way to meet these needs. Not to mention the protein needs. Again, many of which are made by the mother. And can't be synthetic.

    We can grow an embryo in a container for quite a while. weeks. Maybe even a few months.

    Sure, you can attach it to a roomba with temperature control.

    But that's not the same as being able to grow a baby to term.

  • I try feeding my cats boiled meat sometimes. If I cut off the fat or something from something I'm cooking for me, I will dice it up and boil it.

    Neither of my cats will eat boiled meat with the exception of my newer cat who was a stray. But even he will only eat canned tuna.

    Not turkey. Not ham. Not beef. No chicken.

    No lunch meat.

    Not even bacon!

    I don't get why they don't like the best food for them.I can't give them tuna all the time because of the mercury.

    My older cat likes marshmallows. Weird but it is bone meal based.

    The stray will eat some wet food so he gets some every day. But my older cat won't touch the stuff.

    🤷

    I offer to them and then put outside for a local oppossom when they decline.

    I don't like to waste animal products so someone gets it.

  • Criminals use code words. Secondly. U.s companies aren't going to snitch on their own ceos or business partners. Or politicians (same thing most of the time).

    Third.

    Most pedos are using other communication hubs.

    Like email. Telegram. Signal.

    Giving exceptions is just opening them up to survey anyone for any reason.
