If you have depression anxiety and find that Prozac (an ssri) doesnt work well, you might consider something that directly works on dopamine - like Buproprion (brand name = wellbutrin, a NDRI, norepinephrine dopamine reuptake inhibitor).
We do. The machines print a paper ballot. The ballot is recorded electronically as well, but the ballot is inserted by the voter into a locked container.
The thing is, we don't always count the paper ballots by hand. We only do manual counts if the race in a particular voting district is very close.
There were a lot of districts that voted for Trump in numbers just large enough to avoid these manual recounts. A suspicious amount, some might say.
Yep. Important to not assume the election was fraudulent. But there is a case filed to interrogate some anomalous results in at least some districts. It's definitely possible that foul play was involved.
This could be a good use of AI. Since this regime is doing it, and since some of their claims are pretty unrealistic, it probably won't be. But, ML has been used for a while to help identify new drug compounds, find interactions, etc. It could be very useful in the FDA's work - I'm honestly surprised to hear that they're only just now considering using it.
The Four Thieves Vinegar Collective uses some software from MIT ASKCOS that uses neural networks to help identify reactions and retrosynthesis chains to produce chemical compounds using cheap, homemade bioreactors. Famously, they are doing this to make mifepristone available for people in areas of the US without access to abortion care.
You can check it out here. It's a good example of a very positive use-case for an AI/ML tool in medicine.
Irony & Stephen being an arch-ghoul notwithstanding, federal law does supercede state law (Art 6 Sec 2). Like, Nebraska couldn't just legalize murder. They could stop enforcing that law, but it'd still be illegal and the federal gov't could take action.
Yep doesn't work anymore. There's probably some series of buttons you can push to put it into settings mode, but I imagine it's different by model.
If you can't mute it with software, then the only remaining way is via hardware. Carry some packing tape in your car and slap it over the speaker - wipe fingerprints off just in case.
But either way, this is what we need: for the Right to balkanize and start publicly attacking each other. The Democrats are totally ineffectual at this sort of thing and the news will only report on it if the right wing does it anyway.
He has 15 total "experiences" (i.e. jobs/internships), all of which are either normal jobs a kid might have or interning in state government/working with trumps campaign for a couple months at a time, all of which you might expect of a kid who wants to get into law/politics. He started work 5 years ago mowing his neighbors' lawns. Completely unremarkable. Education is a BA in "politics and law" from UT San Antonio and he did a summer "economics program" at George Mason.
Oh and his time working at the grocery store overlaps with his internships with politicians. So he either lied about the length of his employment, wasn't doing full-time internships, or wasn't working a significant number of part-time hours at the grocery store.
I invite you to look at his work history, the closest thing he has to national security experience is as a "cross functional team member" at a grocery store 2 years ago
I guess, if they answer "No" or "Your simple rebuttal has made me realize the problem of free will is nbd actually".
But if they say "Yes. It does matter." Then suddenly it isn't defeated and you'd need to provide a compelling argument for it not mattering, which would make for good conversation.
You get other benefits though. Like the few social safety nets we actually have, public school funding, social security (unless it runs out/gets cut), fire departments, regulatory agencies that keep your food, water, and drugs safe. Etc. It costs a lot of money to have a society. Even if you don't directly benefit from them, they still make society less shit.
That said, it'd cost a lot less if we didn't spend so much of it murdering children.
Depends on your goals. I'd say learn the one you have the most use for. If you don't have a use and are just learning for fun, then pick the most interesting one. If you're learning intending to acquire the language as quickly as possible, then either Italian or French would be good choices.
I am learning Chinese (mandarin, aka 汉语, aka 普通话) and I personally find it very logical, interesting, and fun as a native english speaker who used to be conversationally fluent in Spanish. There are definite difficulties with the language (soooooo many homonyms, characters (汉子) take some getting used to, tones, etc) but if you learn it, there is a lot of reading material and media that will become accessible to you. Additionally some things about it are easier than other languages - like the grammar is very simple, you don't have to worry about conjugations and tenses as much. Also, I think that it provides more cognitive benefits because of how different it is to romance languages.
