the possession of such devices will generally be prohibited by March next year. The police are currently conducting a free collection campaign, urging individuals to turn in coilguns at their nearest police station."

We have known about sleep deprivation causing a remission in suicidal ideation for a while - we have inferred a depression benefit as well, but it’s nice to have it quantified.

However, we also know resumption of sleep pretty quickly ends the effect. It’s not a sustainable intervention, so much as it an interesting finding for hypothesis generation.

We also see the reverse effect in mania; on balance, regular healthy sleep wins the day.

This is incorrect.

Phase I is “is it immediately dangerous?”

Phase II is assessing side effects at various dosages, to dial in possible dose ranges. There is some measurement of clinical effect here, to assist in dialing in dosages.

Phase III is does it work / what is the effect size.

“I thought using these Fitbit-like devices on the neck collar was a creative way to understand resting, flying, or foraging behaviors. And when Ryan was doing all this physical work to figure out what this accelerometry data would tell us, I was very eager to see what the results were,” Ward says. “But when it was all analyzed, I was like, ‘Wow, that's not too exciting.’ Basically, when you harass, they fly a little bit more because you're scaring them, or they might be alert a little more, but it wasn't a fundamental difference.”

Well, that’s one way for a PI to publicly skewer their former grad student.

When working for a hospital, it’s an admin somewhere. When in private practice, the insurer generally has geographic monopoly, so I sign off on whatever they shove in my face if I intend to accept their patients. The only time I have a real say in price is in private practice for uninsured patients, which is where I set aside a piece of my time for charity care.

Many WGU students HATE these types of articles, because they undermine the legitimacy of WGU.

Their model is competency-based, so you must demonstrate you posses knowledge in any given domain.

The guy took courses at college, online, and worked in the field for over a decade before speedrunning WGU. It seems to me he’s the exact model of “demonstrating competence” that you mention - I don’t see how that makes WGU out to be a degree mill.

My understanding is that anker got started with standard white labed alibaba type goods, but differentiated themselves with good curation, meaning you actually got something decent at a low price

I had precisely the same thought. It follows the outline it set forth at the top, but vaguely and without actually communicating any real content. It’s all pseudo-profound Rorschach blot writing.

Pseudoephedrine is still available -behind the counter-. You literally just have to ask the pharmacist for it.

Let’s not turn grad students having a laugh into an actual statement on public policy.

In worms. A neuron was identified as playing a role in turning and, by eliminating that neuron, a worm was prevented from turning.

The headline and intro to the article gives the intentionally misleading impression that this is a human finding. It is not.
