  • By not being a trained nurse. Being wrong is pretty easy, you just have to not know things.

    My perception was that if you get something like a stroke, the initial damage is horrendous and that usually don't heal. Any improvement is the brain offloading the lost functions to other parts of the brain. But once the damage is done and doctors and nurses stopped the source of the damage, I figured the brain would just remain where it was.

  • First of all, yes. The type of lawyer that work for insurance companies are the kind of person that would argue that everyone dies and a dead human has the same number of atom as an alive one.

    My point is however a bit more human and practical. There are people that get dementia in their 40s without first having brain damage. There is no way of telling 100% if hers was a preexisting condition or not because most people don't do brain scans before being brain damaged and if the system can avoid paying the common man money they absolutely will.

    Especially since the police has given thousands of people brain damage and concussions and paying everyone that gets dementia money would be very expensive so the justice system at large would not allow it.

  • The defense will also claim that there is no way to prove that the dementia wouldn't have occured regardless and they would be technically correct. The thing that needs to happen is to remove rubber bullets from the police arsenal.

  • I would have liked some more info on how the brain injury is slowly killing her. My perception of what a brain injury could be is clearly wrong because I have been under the impression that the brain is pretty sturdy as long as the initial injury doesn't kill you.

  • My general impression is that India are really good at scientific innovation and so on but only because the incredible inequality allows India to channel its resources so that it can be on par with other countries a fraction it's size.

    If they did the work required to lift the poor regions out of poverty, and sometimes just straight up feudalism, the country would become a proper superpower with far reaching cultural impact but right now India seem to slide further into Hindu nationalism so now it's more of a worry for everyone else if India became another dictatorship like china.

  • Did you read the article how he did it? He was explicitly testing them to see if they were waking up from the movement or not in the most cartoonish ways possible.

    The way you rationalize things is how children gets raped.

  • This seems to be the best solution. It lets you select country and it even has all the local apps indexed.

    Searching by language was locked behind a subscription which infuriated me but I guess subscribing to a service so that you can know what service you should subscribe to seems about right for 2024.

  • It is the new crypto. The same people went Crypto -> NFT -> Metaverse -> AI without ever changing the way they talk about it. AI is slightly different because it has some utility in the world but it's still the same unstable, over hyped garbage.
