Back in 1998, I specifically started using Google because it somehow managed to avoid spammy search results, unlike its competitors. Today, unfortunately, I find that a lot of Google's search results are spammy, useless information that is there for clicks and advertising only.

"It takes thousands of hours of practice before someone is authorized to use it on human skin,"

This is not true, or at least, the practice that medical students do leading up to their first involvement in a surgery is not with a surgical scalpel.

A simple improvement to existing social media would be to allow users to see other users' feeds. Just seeing things from a different perspective.

It seems like Angela Lipps needs some help. There's no "Go Fund Me" or similar information associated with the article. Perhaps her (former) attorney could provide more information.

Here is the contact information for her defense attorney, who was appointed in North Dakota, Jay Greenwood. It is unclear to me when he took up this case.

Yes, doubling the price of oil, and setting random maybe-not-enforceable tariffs and embargoes, is a net positive because it has the unintended effect of reducing carbon dioxide emissions.

For toddlers who are able to communicate, simply add an absorbent layer into the disposable diaper to give them sensory feedback about moisture. Gauze squares from the first aid aisle work well and are very cheap.

The Lexical whitepaper is insightful, interesting, and resonates with my experience in language learning. I'm looking forward to finding out whether Lexical supports my target language.

The short intro video is helpful in understanding what Phrasing does. The promised walk-though video would also be helpful. I am interested in software for aiding language learning, but after reading your original landing page I could not understand what exactly Phrasing is or what it does. I'm looking forward to trying this out some time this week with my target language. Nice work!

I have used TalkPal for Catalan. I found it slightly superior to ChatGPT, especially, I find the feedback about performance, daily/weekly summary emails, the suggested responses, and the gamified experience to be motivating. The conversations use voice and text input, and audio and text output. I believe they also have a Dutch version.

It is not quite what you are looking for, but I also liked Lingoclip for both Catalan and Spanish. I had exceptional difficulty training my ear to distinguish speech sounds, so recognizing words in song lyrics was helpful.

Use cases: health indicators, avoiding conception, achieving conception, and accurate pregnancy dating.

A well developed period tracking system with a long history is the Creighton Method. Briefly, individuals are trained person-to-person to collect consistent, reliable repeatable data. This can be compared between users, and has many uses. However, the data collection is inconvenient or in some cases impossible, and they will only train married women.

It's ironic that a cartoon that depicts musical improvisation is such a symbol of passively consumed culture.

I agree with Auromis. The reported research is interesting, and yet is not yet ready for application to human health. It's tempting to leap to conclusions. The top poster takes this too far.

I hope that NIH funds a lot more Alzheimer's research looking for microbial causes, and also, that the technology for understanding gut microbiome continues to develop.

It is news in Spain because, in Spain, there is a 1000+ euro fine for transmitting intimate photos of a person (of any age) without their consent. This applies to anyone who transmits the photo, including third parties. The controversy and legal question is whether or not these photos constitute intimate photos.

This probably happens elsewhere, but there is no legal mechanism to prevent it.

I also came to comment that the software's name might cause confusion with the human language, Catalan.

There exist gyms and personal training education for pregnant and postpartum women. I considered sharing one here, but I realized that the comportment of many on HN would be disruptive to them.

Reminds me of the Anti Coloring Book. I had several as a kid. https://us.macmillan.com/series/anticoloringbook

Where does the fluorine end up after this process?

I'm only peripherally involved in the law field, and I am aware that ChatGPT and similar do not consistently provide correct legal citations. It also gets things wrong some of the time; the only way to tell is to be an expert or to look up the facts yourself. Don't use ChatGPT for legal writing, nor for anything else that requires accuracy.

The sounds emitted by the plants are between 20 and 80 kHz, which is within the auditory range of some mammal, such as mice. Although the normal range of hearing in humans is said to be 100 Hz to 20 kHz, when I was a grad student in my early 20s I could detect sounds up to 28 kHz in the sound booth.

I wonder whether there are people who can hear these sounds, even faintly.

In the US it is allowed to take photos of people and publish them, in public. Wikimedia commons has a table of laws here: https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Country_specifi...

The question is whether Afroman's use of the officers' images is for-profit, or if it can be categorized as educational or journalistic. I am in favor of the latter characterization, as I found the videos newsworthy and educational, and illustrate problems with policing that I have primarily heard about by word of mouth.

Are there any other banks that might be affected by interest-rate risk?

> 5000 milligrams of C a day for years

Vitamin C supplements are synthesized from fermentation products of corn and wheat. [0]

A single lemon contains about 32 milligrams of Vitamin C, along with many other things. This study showed that it's lemon extract, not vitamin C alone, that improves kidney stones.

An important consideration is that nobody performs better when you tell them that people like them are discriminated against, or often perform poorly.

Hi, Where I live the police won't get seriously involved unless someone is injured or dead. I prefer not to wait that long.

Don't tell Americans, but in many other countries the cities have excellent train and bus networks that makes owning a car unnecessary.

What is needed is a means for removing weight from the garbage-collection apparatus when adding a front-end snowplow.

Canada doesn't like the snowplow-garbagetruck hybrid, either. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/snow-plow-garbage-truc... "Garbage truck turned snow plow gets mixed review from city staff; Snow plow-garbage truck hybrid did not perform as well as dedicated snow removal machines"

Vaccines that cure cancer.

It is possible to get a COVID antibody test to determine whether you personally have sufficient remaining antibodies, or would benefit from another vaccine. In Barcelona, it is possible for under 100 euros.
