No credible tie between Tylenol use and autism/ADHD, huge study finds

Despite high-profile advice to avoid Tylenol when pregnant and a potential warning-label change to highlight risk, a comprehensive umbrella study of existing reviews has found no credible link between acetaminophen use and autism and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

I get my medical advice from politicians and news outlets too! Let me eat my heart healthy Cheerios and avoid eggs at all costs. And while I’m at it, let me get my 15th Covid booster just to be extra special certain I don’t die this year
 
You don’t need a formal conspiracy when interests converge. These people went to the same universities and fraternities, they’re on the same boards of directors, they’re on the same country clubs, they have like-interests. They don’t need to call a meeting; they know what is good for THEM, and they are getting it. And there used to be seven oil companies. There are now three. It will soon be two. The things that matter in this country have been reduced in choice: there are two political parties, there are a handful of insurance companies, there are six or seven information centers. But if you want a bagel there are 23 flavors because you have the ILLUSION, you have the ILLUSION of choice. You don’t get the real important choices. No freedom of choice.

Nobody here is giving medical advice. I posted the freaking paper directly from the clinicians, who don't go into any other stuff, so anyone can draw their own unbiased conclusions. What more do you want?
 
Everyone should see this movie!

Windows president says platform is "evolving into an agentic OS," gets cooked in the replies — "Straight up, nobody wants this"

Microsoft's current Windows lead Pavan Davuluri has tweeted that the future of Windows will be one that evolves into an agentic OS, but has received significant pushback online.

Our IT folks refuse to advance to the next windows OS. We're stuck on windows 10. They say that windows will soon operate on a cloud only platform and record every key stroke. This is in an effort to "help you recover precious lost data" just in case. but our IT folks say this is basically recording every second of every person online at any given time and keeping that recording for who knows how long. We're already putting insane amounts of cooling into data centers now because of AI. Even liquid cooling the processor chips inside the racks in addition to cooling the racks themselves with cold air. I just can't wrap my brain around what kind of a cooling load we will be required to meet with data storage for every key stroke of every computer on the microsoft OS.

... now imagine what a paranoia problem this creates in the DoD. It blows my mind that people are going along with it. I'm not shocked that "certain people" in the .gov like this level of oversight but the security problems are endless.
There was LOTS of fighting the migration but eventually lost. Those of us running machines in labs that are not on the Enterprise network are holding out as long as possible.

They recently warned us that eventually everything will be Office365 and require network connection. How that jives with maintaining secrecy and compartmentalizing information is a real quandary.

These data centers are insane.
 
Tha amount of money the gov co and corporations spend on Microsoft subscriptions when open office has been free for decades is crazy. Make it proprietary and the cash will roll in

My dad works for one of the major chip manufacturers and he was saying AI is all hype because there is not enough power generation in the US to even come close to thier computing goals, and he said an even bigger hurdle is the cooling. He's amazed the environazis haven't shut all this down, it's the least "green" technology by any measurable metric.

Not to mention it will all run on nuclear or fossil fuels because wind and solar would never be reliable or powerful enough. The liquid salt idea that billionaires though would be the next best thing just went the way of the dingo. Not saying computers won’t get more efficient, but the circuits are already at a microscopic level and there’s only soo small you can go before material limits are met. The revolutions as sold yet have been in materials. Part of the reason spruce pine mines for quartz are practically shuttered
 
3 Mile Island nuclear plant has been bought by a private company, who is going to bring part of it back to life, just to power Microsoft data centers. That's kinda scary.
