Sorry for your experience. Because I am also the husband of a sick wife, I can relate to you. My own feelings swing between hope and despair and a dread of future is emerging. Realistically, what do you expect from medical professionals?

Attention: Nerd Snipe. The Ikigai graph should be painted on a torus because we need to see two additional intersections. Let's try to name them: - What you LOVE and What you can be PAID FOR: Delightful Bullshit Job - What you are GOOD

I think human intelligence can't be recreated but this is not neccessary. It's good enough if artificial intelligence is general enough to solve problems autonomously. I imagine AI as a different sentient species. A species which

I didn't read this very carefully, caveat emptor. Just a thought of mine that popped up: This reminds me of branch-and-bound problems because time could be treated as a dimension and polygons are linearly bound spaces in the sense of b

I think this is a fundamentally difficult problem. Life is sometimes not nice and you have to choose. I chose to write newtype wrappers and to accept the complexity. > I find it hard to believe [...] I think you should read up stuff abou

I know of Dexamethasone as an anti-emetic for chemotherapy. It doesn't treat cancer but treats one side-effect of chemotherapy. It seems to be so helpful such that it enables some forms of chemotherapy not possible before. It seems wei

Pushing things to children to be learned is not efficient. You can try but what goes into one ear leaves the other ear. My approach: wake the curiosity (for example by playing games on itch.io and showing a tiny glimpse of the possibility t

After having been half a day at a hospital with a face mask I realize it's just «Gewöhnungssache» (a matter of getting used to something). I am sure when about half of the population experienced half a day with a face mask on, then the

Switzerland is not uniform. It seems that is it easier for the alemannic part to adapt to social distancing. For example, when my wife and I entered an elevator, the people already in it left the elevator. I found that very rude at first bu
