I am surprised with the downvotes. Meta is the new tobacco corp.

I have a story about this very issue.

I have hip impingement, I played sports and got a labral tear in one of my hips. My hip would get sore and painful after a lot of activity. I've seen a top surgeon in the US. After we just met, he looked at the MRI(yes there was a small labral tear there) and said he can have me on an operating table in 2 weeks.

I was shocked, because the recovery absolutely sucks. So, I got 2nd and 3rd opinion.

3rd opinion was a doc with 20+ years of experience. Asked me if I plan on going pro in any sports, I said no, he said the surgery is not worth it. I did some PT and barely have issues with that hip.

Then, Obama admin created a website to see what gifts($) physicians accept. The 1st surgeon had accepted six figures+ from stryker. The older doc? 0.

There is no money in PT for a surgeon. I would thread lightly with popular and young surgeons.

I think the ads would be more targeted. You ask it about code, and it suggests a paid library or an app that you can pay for.

It is quite interesting problem, because you could just respond with ok I want you to write whatever that library does. I don't want to pay for this.

If my business was a large CRUD app, like CRM I would be worried about smaller apps popping up on the market.

Personal computing is in shambles right now. It has been for a bit. It was hard to buy video cards for a while, now other components are affected too.

"Ford rehires 350 engineers after AI fails to preserve expertise or train juniors" In order to rehire someone they must laid off or fired? You don't rehire new employees?

Have any of you seen the Weiner mobile?

That thing is so cool and I've seen it in the wild a few times.

Are you family members experiencing any symptoms of the disease?

I guess if my mother has the gene I will test for PSEN1 at some point, but I am worried about the side effects of the meds. Hope things go well for your family.

More reasons for me to dislike linked-in. I have an account. I hate it.

From what I read your statement is accurate. From speaking to people who are going through the new infusions Leqembi and Kisunla get rid of amyloid plaque doesn't mean the decline stops, and if the disease was driven by it then it would stop.

Also, studies show some slowing using these new drugs, but the disease still progresses. Therefore, the plaque is most likely a symptom. It could be the driver in some of the cases though, I think in genetic PSEN1 alzheimer's. I've read a paper discussing issue with the body not removing it and allowing to build up.

She is now 63. Started showing symptoms at 61. Her sister died at 64 and her onset was in her 50s.

I am working with invitae to get her DNA tested. Unfortunately, her stage is considered moderate and very little treatment options.

My mother has early onset alzheimer's disease. We currently know very little about the disease and the current treatment options are controversial. The efficacy of the medications removing the amyloid plaque from the brain is questionable, as people still decline.

What makes alzheimer's difficult is that it is not really a single uniform disease. There are subtypes.

Since my mother has it, I was presented with an option of a genetic test. There are several genes which increase your risk. However, if one has PSEN1 that will 100% guarantee early onset alzheimer's at some point.

I'm still on the fence if I want to know.

I really hope we get some viable treatments for this terrible disease. Early onset azlheimer's is awful. I cannot imagine having malfunctioning brain.

In order to deny a warranty claim the US, the manufacturer has to prove the issue has been caused by a modification or servicing.

Why would anyone want to service their call at a stealership? The prices are unfair and the quality of techs is awful. Better to find a small reliable shop.

Codex has been great for me for backend wiring, mapping and creating boiler plate code in C#. However, it seems when I go in to fix things its 60% front-end.

Idk, I like AI when it works, but it drives me insane when it keeps making errors. I've had a few errors which I figured out from documentation fairly quickly, provided said docs but the AI would still mess it up somehow.

Do it.

Both sides SHOULD BE calling out those using the office to enrich themselves. Also, looking at their own party.

We cannot go forward as a nation when people rally up behind their party and only see the issues with the other party.

You have to be blind not to see the crypto grift from the current admin. No republican or democrat has ever done that before.

Different people are driven by different things. Some people genuinely want to serve their nation and being a president is a huge honor to the family. You become part of history.

Others may be serving their own interests as it gives them access to all information.

Others may just want the power.

All I use is codex right now.

I brainstorm with it, create documentation, and generate code. Then review, test and profit.

This is the enshitification path, sooner or later these services have to turn to shit or charge a premium to be sustainable.

Step 1 is to provide a good value, then lure in creators, then lock them in and profit.
