Perhaps I misunderstood what the GP was asking. Nevertheless GLP-1 medications appear to be kidney protective from a long term standpoint with an increased short term risk of AKI likely primarily related to GI losses with additional risk co

Has nothing to do with it. A1c measures the percentage of hemoglobin A1 in red blood cells bound to sugars (glycated hemoglobin). Since red blood cells normally circulate for months this gives a surrogate marker for average blood glucose le

Not comparable. HL7 is a machine interchange format - virtually no docs or healthcare personnel except those involved in informatics (and then generally only superficially) are familiar with HL7. These NOTAMs were designed for human consump

Note that this doesn’t always work with smart thermostats. From first hand experience, there are some models out there that will generally work fine but will not complete booting up if one of the outputs is detected as closed.

> text rendering is definitely one of the things that come up the most Ok this doesn’t dispute what I’m saying at all and I would think you would know better. Do you have profiles from 15 or so years ago that show text rendering was a su

It isn’t really though. If this were true rendering text would be super slow - but it isn’t. Text shaping and rendering is done on the CPU on all the major platforms and is simply highly optimized. And people throw 15 to 20 years ago like i

Widely known ambiguity with verb tense in English used to write clickbait. “Once widely used chemical in the 70s…” or a “Formerly widely used chemical” - was that so hard?

Conspicuous maybe, but not common. It’s probably just first come first serve which works reasonably well. How many other books or pieces of media can you name with those initials? If you come up with a collision that’s easy to deal with you

1000 different components is really not that many - especially if you're counting individual resistors and diodes (as the pictures would suggest). These passives are literally pennies or fractions thereof in bulk. You can buy large kit

No, much much less. That o-scope is $349 and that's the most expensive item (well outside of the computer workstation), and everything is cheapish (which as pointed out elsewhere is only going to be used for a restricted set of hobbyis

No - in general shrinkflation is a thing - and it tends that things peaked 20 to 30 years ago. Many junk food items are larger than when they hit the shelves but substantially smaller than their peak sizes.

Discreetly? It’s on the nutrition label. I don’t think candies and ice cream today are particularly less healthy than they were 50 years ago - and there are clearly more options today. It’s easier to eat healthy today than it ever was - t
