It’s just modeling humans. I was only a lab TA for two semesters, and I caught so many fake data sets.

They call me baby J out on these streets

Ok. I’m also not crazy.

I do. I also have a PhD from a medical school. That’s why I know if eating less milk were the best solution for this individual, they would have said that.

Managing parents’ anxieties is a major part of being a pediatrician. You don’t suggest things that might scare parents when they are not necessary.

Be nice.

Jesus Christ. Just be nice.

Why is no one on Lemmy nice.

My bologna has a first name…

The doctor is unable to stop them from their behavior.

Imagine yourself as a doctor. The patient has the plague. You say, “Take this antibiotic. It will go away.” They say, “We prefer quarantine and chicken noodle soup”.

Do you say ok? Or do you admonish them and risk they get angry and do nothing? Or do you say, that is better than nothing. It is their body.

The only ethical behavior for a physician in this situation is to say, “sure, try dietary modifications”.

They were trying to prevent long term brain development issues by resolving the anemia the fastest evidence-based way, but the patient refused expert advice.

That is what I said. The doctor would only have suggested meds if it were necessary.

You should change your thought process and listen to the experts.

They also would have recommended dietary changes if they actually were applicable. It is this kind of belief that leads to increased harm and is solely the reason why so many children are being harmed and killed by extremely preventable causes.

I’m not accusing you of being someone as heinous as an antivaxxer, but this is the thought process that leads people down that path.

This specific thing? Or just an iron chunk of some type?

The reason I know about this is the social aspect of trying to get people with endemic iron deficiency to use a supplement. If you’re from the more industrialized would, I’d figure you’d take supplements that, while more expensive, may or may not be more effective.

Certainly makes sense.

Not necessarily licking (I mean, if you do it enough…), but this is a thing

Cool story with interesting social, cultural, and scientific interactions.

It may have been discredited outside of simple iron deficiency since I last read about it, but dietary studies on humans are notoriously difficult to do.

Anyway. Show it here.

I’ll take a look.

So, I can’t imagine a workplace where you would share a x-ray/ultrasound/CT/mr/PET, where you’d invite people to see it, and the people who showed up could get you in trouble with HR.

Just ask.

There’s nothing prurient about it unless you have weird motives.

It’s like showing Netter. One of the classic human anatomy books.

If you do anyone remotely scientific, there should be no problem.

Just be aware, the camera may add ten pounds. The CT scanner seems to add a lot more.

Try the pasta…

Nothing would happen. You blink for a fraction of a second.

Also, note that the eyelids of people with darker skin already pass less light than those of people with lighter skin. (That is the purpose of darker skin)

Lemmy is so toxic. Why down vote this?

Bobcats and house cats are obligate carnivores. Even if people doubt that you actually ate bobcat, I pretty much guarantee that it would be gross.

Outside of fish, where there are additional trophic levels, there are two reasons that we don’t eat carnivores.

First, there are fewer carnivores. The common figure is that in nature if you want 1 pound of animal, you need 10 pounds of animal food (I’m simplifying). So 100 pounds of herbivore food makes 10 pounds of herbivore which makes 1 pound of carnivore. And if you want to farm an animal it can’t be competing with you for food. It needs to, in general, eat stuff you don’t want to eat. Like grass or table scraps or bugs. We can eat herbivore meat. We love it so much that whenever we showed up, we ate everything to extinction.

Cats are separate. They kinda domesticated themselves because when we started storing grain lots of rodents showed up. They just ate them, doing both of us a favor.

Second, they taste nasty. We’ve got poultry. They eat “bugs” those are more like the plankton type trophic level. When they can catch things like snakes or mice, they go absolutely nuts, but they do so more rarely than obligate carnivores.

Then, there’s pigs. They have a similar enough diet as poultry, but we do feed them meat scraps. I can guess about why this is, but I can’t be as confident as I am about my other statements.

Finally, humans are alleged to taste like pig. Maybe that’s it.

I’m thinking you are agreeing with me on every thing I said, and I have made no such impossible request. I’ve already linked to the nhtsa which is charged with this, and I’m sure that there is something similar in the eu.

Jd is bad. Maybe you don’t agree that CR is, but that’s minor.

Tesla’s reliability is the topic at hand. That was my introductory statement.

Per the fires, that’s exactly what I meant. I’ve seen enough burning cars and had my other calls recalled. That’s just not news. It’s news when an EV does that.
