I took CBD twice and both times it worsened my sleep, so I really wanted a pure CBN product. Not sure where you live, but this is what I use for CBN: https://www.charlottesweb.com/products/stay-asleep-cbn-gummi... One

Much as I criticize CBT, this is one of the few kinds of problems it seems suited for: there is so much data surrounding and so many inputs for a single negative event that it can be very easy to find a pattern breaker, re-frame, or alterna

I occasionally use CBN for sleep, never THC, so maybe it's different, but I quickly develop a tolerance, like within a week of daily use and have to cease for many days or a few weeks to get any further benefit at all. As I read, the e

IANAD, but 1) Isn't ApoB measurement pretty much in tandem with LDL, VLDL, and triglycerides? I realize it's being recognized now as the necessary factor for arterial dysfunction, but it seems like a lot of hoopla is being made as

I'd say we have an easy way to compare this: look only at Medicare and Medicaid spend vs. the other countries.

That's because the monopsony of universal health care fixes the prices. We're kinda caught in the middle in the US.

We see that already with LASIK and other cosmetic procedures. They are not cheap, but often an order of magnitude lower than medically necessary insurance-covered work.

All this demonstrates is that outcomes are not uniform, not that the culture explanation is necessarily wrong. Schools in many urban districts where we see this same disparity control for teacher qualifications and per pupil student funding

Consider 2 million carefully, though. Collectively in a 9-5 job over decades you would probably lose more time with your kids than you would with how much earlier you could retire with even doing the 2 million grind for one year. Depending

Why would they? I hear their main revenue is in AWS and AdTech. Assuming this is true, why would they need bleeding edge AI?

I am sorry you've had only negative experiences. Most of mine with PMs were negative as well, but a good one is a dragon slayer and bottleneck unclogger. They feel not like your manager, but like your servant, listening to exactly what

Makes me wonder how much of the positive research on fermented foods generally has to do with liver function improvement, since the organ is crucial to the health of most of the body.

It's not just that it causes liver failure: it's that the difference between the therapeutic dosing range for pain relief it's prescribed for is dangerously close to the toxicity level. Other drugs like theophylline have ceas

It's not therapy. It's a simulated validating listening, and context-lacking suggestions. There is no more therapy being provided by an LLM than there is healing performed by a robot arm that slaps a bandage on your arm if you wer

You're counting warehouse and delivery workers though in that number, which IIRC is the significant majority. Google doesn't move physical products. (At least, not anything near that scale.)

Oh really? And charge them with what? The USA doesn't have vague laws around social harmony by which to prosecute people. This is exactly why it's so important to protect so called "hate speech".
