thanks, missed that in the original as I was reading though the posted wiki.
“ARVC can also develop in intense endurance athletes in the absence of desmosomal abnormalities. Exercise-induced ARVC is possibly a result of excessive right ventricular wall stress during high intensity exercise.”
Same for me, no one considers BMI to be a good indicator of anything, but it is better than nothing, and more importantly, it is super simple.
Any idiot with a bathroom scale and a measuring tape can do it. And by adulthood, height doesn't change significantly and you probably know it, so you may not even need that measuring tape. Other metrics need specialized equipment, error prone or complex procedures, etc... I don't even know how to make a waist measurement. Where exactly? How relaxed should the subject be? How long after eating?...
That's the value of BMI: simple repeatable. Not the best but enough to get and idea and make statistics.
> And by adulthood, height doesn't change significantly and you probably know it ...
But height does change in adulthood [0]. On average people living past 40 gradually lose height. At age 80, it's likely height loss will be >=2 inches. This loss is reflected in higher BMI even when body fat content hasn't changed. Average BMI increase isn't large, but think about a person losing 4 or 5 inches of height while maintaining body fat unchanged.
Self-reported height is generally greater than measured height. Adding 1/2 to 1 inch is common (per experience measuring height). "Height inflation" has modest effect on BMI but problematic in research and workup for medical procedures. In the latter cases, measuring height is necessary.
There are so many Chinese tech companies building models and someone there has to be managing the list of forbidden topics. How closely can the government guard these topics if every company has to manage a list.
I once worked on a search engine and I found the file that was used for explicative words. I didn't understand more than half of what was in there.
I worked with Boris in the past and in my experience, Boris cares deeply about the customer. I'd vouch that Boris really cares about the issue people are running into.
The idea is that Claude Code is surprisingly buggy and unrefined for something created by the very tool and processes that are supposed to be replacing us as we speak.
Sure they can. The solution is pretty simple and in your own post. Choose either:
* Make the product good to the point code is no longer slop and shit.
* Stop hyping the quality when it isn’t there.
* Do a hybrid approach. Use their own product but actually have competent humans in the loop to make the code good.
This is not hard. Be honest and humble and that criticism goes away. It’s no one’s fault but Anthropic’s that they hype up their product to more than it can do and use it carelessly to build itself. It’s not a no-win scenario if you’re the one causing your own obviously avoidable problems.
As a med-school dropout, in his early 40s (left medicine two decades ago), I cannot even imagine having enough energy to even apply for medical school. At least in the United Hates of America, this is my jaded perspective.
I became an electrician, instead, with stints IBEW and self-employed residential. Lots of money-making opportunities, but lots of unlicensed competition from handymen that "know just enough to be dangerous" — most customers only care if the light turns on, not that it's long-term safe.
I'm actually attempting to get into officework, somewhere. I can't do another twenty years of physical construction, whether in houses or factories.
>Are you self-employed now?
Yes, but I choose not to work regularly.
Fortunately, I have enough savings to not be too worried — presuming the economy picks up within the next few years (I can outlast this presidency, doing nothing).
I was scrolling around to see if I can find someone else that thought the same.
In my usage of melatonin, it's only when I'm super stressed and can't seem to calm down enough to sleep.
