Exactly. Being unable to account for this covariate (tobacco use) pretty much invalidates this analysis. The odds ratio for tobacco use is basically the same (3x).

Also, title needs a 2025.

Both Kroger and Albertsons also operate in Texas, in the same cities, often a short distance away from HEB.

I did this but using Twilio, a Grandstream HT802v2, and a basic AT&T wall phone. Caller ID sorta works. I really tried to find a phone that would make a satisfying sound when slammed down, but I found that no one makes good, solid corded wallphones any longer.

The toughest part was figuring out which set of wires (my house had like 5 lines somehow) went to that particular jack in the kitchen.

> LLM's are notoriously bad at this. The noise to signal ratio is unacceptably high…

I keep seeing this statement in threads about AI, and maybe it’s just from you, but high SNR is a good thing.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

I think the rest of your post is very valid. It’s the mental equivalent of this article https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47049088

Many of those people have moved to Bluesky. Which has its own issues.

The immunologist’s office weighs these tiny amounts and sends you home with a few weeks’ supply. As you progress and the margin of error becomes less dangerous, you get to weigh it yourself.
