The denial is really strong here. It cites "misperceptions" as a negative factor, but is utterly oblivious to the fact that no matter how they try to disguise their dog whistle to the patients, the MDs understand perfectly what is meant here and they will never respect it. They understand...

Given this, how does it even make sense to do RNA analysis? What possible relevance could this possibly have in a "long lockdown" model? Or I guess the philosopher's stone of psychosomatic ideologues everywhere is finding evidence of psychology influencing biology, nevermind that in all cases...

Ironic choice of words: I guess in our case it's not understandable. Which is kinda true, they don't understand it. But that's irrelevant, it's not possible to understand everything, and nothing they do will lead them to that. All they're doing is showing their extreme biases and how utterly...

The plot thickens. Long investigative report, but worth the read if interested: Unraveling Havana Syndrome: New evidence links the GRU's assassination Unit 29155 to mysterious attacks on U.S. officials and their families. A shorter summary, 60 minutes is behind much of that investigation...

Not fundamentally different than the brain retraining or phone call epiphany people. The most annoying part of this is that I occasionally see similar spontaneous recovery reports on the LC sub-reddit. This tells us something. However unlike the religious awakening story here, most of them...

Maybe nitpicky again but dammit people feel the wind most days, there's no need to make things more mysterious than they are :laugh:

Or even make any sense.

Maybe nitpicking but: not necessarily. It's just what happens when muscles are used beyond their current ability. It happens when someone who hasn't lifted weight for years does a few series with 15 lbs, and it also happens when someone who is doing so regularly goes from 150 lbs to 160 lbs. So...

"I'm sorry you got offended" is the non-apologiest of fake apologies.

Same old laughable rubbish that actually makes the Stanford Prison Experiment look tame and wise by comparison. None of this even makes sense. They present their BPS stuff as holistic, but then go on pretending like a few millisecond more or less pressing a button when presented arbitrary words...

Most of the pathogens we come in contact with, it's the first time we ever encountered them. There are so many out there. Trillions and trillions and combinations and permutations among many of those we regularly come into contact with. I don't think that's especially relevant. It's too easy a...

Somewhat, unfortunately leaves out a lot of space, like the entirety of psychosomatic ideology. Basically, they accept it, except where they don't, and where they don't want to, they do the exact opposite of what needs to be done. I guess that's the real problem, that it's not enough to accept...

Most of the population carries H. Pylori. Most of the population never develops peptic ulcers. Similar with EBV, in some cases causing mono, in most not, in some cases leading to ME, in some cases after mono, in some cases without it, in most not. Some people die from a falling piano and other...

Although 100% true, that's the difference that a discriminated "not even a real disease" makes. We could easily raise those funds if we had the support of the medical profession. But we have their hostile indifference, the main actors telling people that investing in the necessary research we...

Maybe deleting it will?

Key recommendations: "alternative targeted treatment strategies and new hope for recovery". Good. Grief. This is what having given up years ago looks like, long after it's been left to fester and decay.

There was a NHS-organized Long Covid conference yesterday, and one of the presentations from a clinic lists Curable as one of the things they prescribe, or use, or whatever. The colors they chose are really unhelpful, but it even looks like it's the most common from this service.

To be fair, if we did spend the money on that and other things, billionaires may have to do away with having to live on only 4 yachts, instead of 6, millionaires may have to see their wine cave almost half empty, and that's just clearly not a future worth living. Think of the crew of the other 2...

One of the growing paradigms in AI is Mixture of Experts (MoE), a technique where various independent models are asked the same question and a general language model takes the various inputs and chooses what is most relevant in a single response. I'm not sure this technique would give anything...

There was a NHS-organized Long Covid conference (clearly to the surprise of everyone, it doesn't seem to have been announced beforehand) and McGregor presented the results of REGAIN as being positive, he even included the truncated axis that is a thing only done shadily, so I doubt he or BMJ...
