Naming plays top role in a corp's success. OpenAI chose terrible ones: a cheating, barely legal for the company and a scientific abbreviation for their popular product. I predict market fate will give them a lesson by pushing them to f

The author names the status, the subjective good-feeling, as the common cause and I agree. In layman terms, having kids is not trendy anymore. As parenthood lies in deeper instincts, the underlining cause is their suppression.

Such stories sound like horror science fiction to Europeans. Of course preventable deaths and health related mistakes happen there too but they are rarely the fault of insurance. If such a blunt event would happen to me, I could sue the ins

It's very difficult and boring to follow a newborn until at least their 16th year of age, when mental development and IQ stabilise. It would be interesting if we new about the effects of eg. breast feeding, co-sleeping, parenting types

I am reading dozens of books to my children (mostly of Enid Blyton) and I am able to simultaneously think about something else (work stuff, household, HN subjects etc). It lasts a few minutes during which I don't follow what I am readi

Correct. Depth and frequency of breathing is regulated 90% by arterial CO2 level due to a direct, potent servo feedback based on a sensor in the brain stem. The rest is due to O2 level. A fatal situation happens with low CO2 and low O2 that

In the beginning, during the WOW surprising phase, I found myself being overly polite and grateful. Nowadays, I spare such words to add others like How do I or I have trouble. Anyway, why complicate the prompt without reason? I keep petting

I like Elon so much because of one reason: his multi trillion business adds completely new values without taking a single cent away from small retailers and owners, as new big corps do through various legit and not so ways. In contrast, Bez

As a Greek, and I believe fellow Italians do, I cannot believe how one can live for the first 10-20 years of his adult life without their parents' help, especially today. Old money, inheritance and a house are almost always existent an

I think we should focus at the solution of Fermi paradox, especially the short time window factor. Life on earth evolved for billions of years, while one of it's creatures is capable to receive/send messages to space for only 50.

Another common property of such studies is that their result is mildly surprising. Not much so that it will be scrutinised and questioned and not indifferent because no one will care about them. So, you receive your expectation.

This 'some' refers to many subcategories of cases, not only unipolar vs bipolar.

Disclaimer: I am neurologist in a psy department. I used the second person and a direct advice deliberately to overcome the taboo and suspicion against antidepressives, which cost quality of life. Obviously, one has to reach a doctor for a

Depression is for many people the animal in the room, for some a fox and for others an elephant. You cannot avoid, ignore or hack a chemical imbalance in your brain with societal or personal measures. If you find yourself hopeless and helpl

Studies that reach HN and other pop places usually have a lot in common: they link a widespread, modifiable and 'catchy' factor (like sleep, sugar/meat etc consumption, human relations) with a single sensational end point (de

With so low differences one should always use VRR and not bother about the rest config. Sub-ms differences are impossible to detect.

Dementia might have dozens of risk factors, each adding up a little. Physical and emotional stress, insomnia, head microinjuries, arteriovascular risk factors, infections and there lies herpes zoster. Only the latter has a causal treatment

In order to conclude about taxing, we should agree how much more one should earn per unit of talent or position. Should a CEO earn x10k times a base salary, like now? If yes, don't tax them, if they should earn x1k, tax them 90%, if x1

The patient must be hospitalised and the administration is justified as an analgesic, sedative and for heart failure when pressure, pulse and breath start to reduce. I believe any doctor whould agree after discussion with the relatives. The

Firstly the term 'long' is not good. Better is post-COVID syndrom, because the virus has been eliminated and not staying for long but the situation remains post infection. Secondly, the majority of burden is caused by CNS/bra

As a doctor, I think we are prepared for our own death (not so much for illness though). Especially during the last days or months we know exactly what's happening. I agree that the less-care-but-less-side-effects way is chosen much mo

As a Greek I feel proud that we passed through all history tides during our high times: multiple cycles of thriving and decline, the last one being the Classical century of 5th BC, then the Hellenistic period of Alexander until we passed th

It's simple. Ambs in the US are all private companies. Everywhere in the world private ambs are also extremely expensive and public ones free of charge. There is no truly public amb ride in the US.

Microplastics are even suspected for the low sperm count and power of men after the 70's. We can attribute to them any effect we observe today. It's insane. Let's accept that we cannot causaly link MPs with anything because w

It is sad but inevitable in a free market. The line between a good and an addictive product is often blur. OK, cocaine is addictive and a nice restaurant meal is good but everything else lies inbetween. In the end, I believe after 3-5 year

Not much will be done: Europe will not manage to become sovereign and independent from the US. Things change slowly and a next Dep POTUS will come again closer to Europe. My opinion, not advice for investment.

For such widespread factors any correlation not based on randomised controlled trials should be dismissed. There is so much confounding that you end up measuring smoking vs heart disease. I will not be surprised by the result, cannabis usag
