Absolutely invaluable place for every age. A day full of experiences (technology, science, history...).

K/Na metabolism is tricky. Both are fundamental but in a very different way (Na levels are higher and with more tolerance in fluctuations, hypo/hyper-K can easily stop the heart). The pressumed effect of K in BP is mainly that K p

Do not mess with K in diet. Its levels are asymptomatic and in a bad day (eg dehydration) a fatal cardiac arrhythmia is possible

We should wait a couple of months. If these (quasi)neurological complications persist after 3 months, they can become permanent and debilitating. If not, then they are nothing

He has the false self-confidence with a language he has not get in contact with yet. A frequent bias of a programmer. In a sense, studying Ancient Greek in depth is impossible as many ideas are lost in the modern cultural decline.

Similarly, if you prescribe an AD to an 'arbitrary' person, most probably you do more harm than good, but I am sure you can find an appropriate code to try to 'cure' an 'ill' system. The difference between biom

Trying to find how ADs work is like injecting a small piece of machine code to a running computer system and trying to find out what changes are produced. Its clinical effects are like the effects on the GUI. There are many abstraction leve

I also enjoy a similar one where instead of the programmer stands a statistician and instead of project manager a principal investigator. Source: https://stats.stackexchange.com/a/12745

Literal translations of phrases from Greek to English language is a whole joke category in Greek. We even translate single compound words, eg πολυέλαιος (=chandelier) to 'much oil' (έλαιον=oil)

Don't expect to find anything beyond a correlation between VitD levels and any serious disease. In any study that such is found, the substitution had no effect.

There are many similarities indeed (eg abstraction: cell -> tissue -> organ, modularity etc) but the fundamentals are different (deterministic CS vs probabilistic biomed)

That would be very dangerous, albeit useful. Making a diagnosis and giving a therapy have different consequences than programming SW and executing code

Your story is a clone of mine (4 and 3 by now) I don't tend to hear others with older kids as the only to know it is to live it. So my cent is to wait patiently for the next stage. Until then enjoy this one till disgust, so you will no
