@PhD Student @Bham I appreciate that you show an interest in ME/CFS. Please read this as context, and please don’t make any of the same...
«I want to help, therefore anything I do is «to help»». IMO this is probably the most common logical fallacy for your regular Joe. There are...
This paper is a polite way of telling them that they are terrible at the very basics of their job.
My last take is that it feels like the writers were trying to justify the use of AI, and therefore might have chosen descriptions and phrases...
Is the presence of relatively more B cells always caused by a relative increase to the need for those cells (i.e. that something is telling the...
I actually meant damage as in structural damage to something, but your interpretation made me realize that structural damage doesn’t have to equal...
There are better and worse ways of doing things, and there’s a threshold along that scale that says «good enough for science». If you make a...
I’m going to ask the newbie questions: Do we have any reason to believe that VH-30 causes any damage, or is this more of a downstream effect of...
I understand your concern, but I’m not sure I want ME/CFS-researchers that takes it personally when they are proven wrong. That’s partially why...
What isn’t understood? ;) Why does ME/CFS exclude LC as a co-morbidity? I’ve always thought of LC and ME/CFS as two partially overlapping...
The phrase "if you can't explain it simply you don't understand it well enough" comes to mind. I don’t know if that’s the case here, but it could...

Throughout the history of humans, most people have been wrong about most things. And most people don’t understand the almost insurmountable...
It’s difficult to change your mind without strong incentives (like PEM). And some just want to be of help, so they end up focusing too much on...
I was not aware of that context, thank you for letting me know. Seems like I jumped to conclusions, although prior work isn’t a guarantee against...
It’s probably impossible. And that’s a good argument against contacting researchers. If they want to hear from us, they know where to find us.
«We need to use all of the available tools and work together to solve this». Why is this relevant for ME/CFS? Logical fallacy? «We haven’t...
I’m new here and I love this place. Why do people hate it and stay away? I might be naive and idealistic, but I (used to) work in a firm with a...
Is it fair to say that this is a good rule of thumb?: You can’t force an improvement, you have to wait for it while avoiding deterioration....
I like his theory because it focuses on something they found to be wrong, and then they try to work around it. It might not be what’s wrong with...
