There's no such thing as an "immune booster". The immune system is incredibly complex and nuanced, and there isn't a knob (or 10) that you can tweak to turn it up or down. It exists in a continuum of largely understood configurations, and it can learn and adapt (not always with good results). If anything, "boosting" it as in turning up immune activity is usually terrible (think auto-immune disorders, inflammation, cancer).
The "misinformation" people are battling is about a) unsubstantiated health claims and b) the fact that supplement manufacturers don't need to provide any evidence or follow any regulations regarding what's actually in the supplements. That means they can say they're selling e.g. Vitamin C but it's just sugar.
Try therapy and, if necessary, medication. Both of those have completely turned my life around. Things are still shitty sometimes (esp. during Covid), but way better than a few years ago.
The classification is done because rogue planets etc. tell us things about the process of solar system and planetary formation. Yeah nature tends to have a continuum of things, but the classifications are primarily used as place holders so that people know what everyone's talking about.
I think emergence and complexity are important topics here. It's important that we actually understand how the pieces come together though. Maybe that's a place for functional programming/logic and frameworks that make composition easy
Wonderful!!! Can you point me to any textbooks/resources that go into more depth on this (or if that's too specific, dynamical systems in general at the early graduate level)?
Something I've had trouble finding resources for is how to apply probabilistic/Bayesian techniques and thinking to chaotic dynamical systems. People keep telling me "Look up MCMC" but I don't see the relevance to dynamical systems (further than the notion that you can maybe sample from them with MCMC somehow?)
Hy got my attention a while ago but I haven't played with it yet. Would you find yourself turning back to Python due to missing/annoying features? And is there an easy way to turn your code into a Python script so your co-workers can read it? :D
Leisure time etc. is very important to creativity and productivity as well. There's a lot of studies that I'm too lazy to link to, but you can find them pretty easily.
People have been floating the idea of doing this for the life sciences too, where the cost of performing an experiment can be very high (animals, enzymes, local permitting and legal considerations etc. on top of the man hours). It would be very useful to see the results of an experiment you want to do(or something resembling it) but didn't follow up on it for whatever reason and would definitely accelerate research. And would probably help with the weird incentive structure and secrecy issues academia is pointlessly built around.
Under any other administration I'd support this (i still do, provided the motivation is legitimate anti-trust concerns). But it's pretty obvious that the cheeto prince just doesn't want his hate speech banned or his dissidents having a platform.
It does tend to be the case in the last years. Being affiliated with the party of Trump and McConnell is a choice, and means condoning their behavior to a certain extent. You can be a conservative and not a Republican, but if you call yourself a Republican you're effectively endorsing corruption and hatred.
Is the map accurate a few stars out of the sun? Star concentration seems to be higher near the sun. Or is that just something done for visualization purposes?
Maybe you meant something slightly different, but I will agree with other comments that this wouldn't hamper progress. Most people don't enjoy doing nothing for protracted periods of time. We like to create things and make stuff happen. I think we'd make more progress, if anything.
My experience has been the opposite: things have been much easier and faster to set up in Julia. Yes, "time to first plot" is annoying after you update the plot package, but that's the only annoying thing for me.
Julia is a thinly disguised Lisp, offering all the wizardry associated with that language family - so it's very expressive.
I would like it to be multithreaded and for Org mode to have some more UI features (and I think a lot of people would - at least the former). From what I understand it's really hard to do that by building on the existing C base ELisp base.
Unpopular opinion: we should write the "new" Emacs in Julia (and maybe Rust).
