There might be something of an age gap issue too, TRB. My mother is 74, loves a monologue and never asks about my life - even if I find something in my life that perfectly chimes with her latest monologue hot topic, which is simply galling! Every time I see her I have less and less to say because it's a waste of everyone's time if I open my mouth. I stayed with her a couple of months ago and I could tell she was pissed at my muteness, but for the life of me I couldn't think of anything to say that she would respond to. I felt rotten, but on reflection, she is simply reaping what she has sown. So, while I would like to fix it, I also can't summon the energy given she has spent my entire life crushing it out of me!

No advice, just solidarity!

All of this reads like he's covering up that there's something wrong with his cognition. He's afraid you're going to notice and is going after your news literacy to show that he's fully up to speed etc.

I'd be careful about talking to him on this. But watch for small accidents in the house or when driving etc.

I hope it's not this and he's just a grumpy, super lonely person, but my Spidey senses from my grandmother and several clients are tingling here.

It's crossed my mind as well - he's never been a wholly reasonable man but the rate at which he attacks if you point out he's wrong/mistaken about anything did make me wonder if he's feeling a little sensitive about cognition. It ties in with my sense he's frightened (and as such angry) about things he doesn't understand too. I'll keep an eye out as best I can.

Sorry to hear this Mez, although it is oddly comforting that it's not a singular issue. I hadn't considered the age gap part of it. I'm feeling in a similar sort of place - I haven't the energy to turn every visit into a fight or engage with it beyond polite noises showing I'm listening after the first couple of hours.

How're you doing Azath? Did the bacteria leave anything when it was through with you?

The flesh-eating bacteria ate me, and now I'm inside them. And naturally we're conspiring with covid, bird flu, Bill Gates, and OpenAI to devour the multiverse!

Felt better by the evening of the next day after onset of symptoms. Despite continuing to eat leftovers from the restaurant, which I was thoroughly nuking. On the third day I decided to chance doing some intense exercise (even though it tends to temporarily weaken the immune system). Then I finally had some of the spicy tofu and vegetable soup---it had been sealed very tightly and then sealed in an airtight plastic bag by the restaurant; I hadn't opened it before, and the other soup was very hot when delivered---hot enough to kill bacteria I thought---and so I reasoned that the risk of cross-contamination from the crab was extremely minimal, and I was curious what it would taste like cold, so I ate a bit of it without nuking. (Then I put a bit in a bowl and nuked that for comparison.)

The next morning, like the monster at the end of a horror movie (or Donald Trump---in the horror movie that is American democracy), my symptoms came back with a vengeance. Finally decided to stop eating the leftovers (just in case) (considered putting a warning post-it note on them just in case any dumpster divers think they've found buried treasure and so are unknowingly on the precipice of spewing out both ends---of course if I really wanted to I could nuke it for them before putting in the trash). Lasted until around this morning.

And now I'm out of green tea and Shanxi vinegar... no Black Friday or Cybermonday Amazon deals on traditional Shanxi vinegar either (only for Chinkiang and Baoning, which have sugar added to them). Also messing with my groove---it turns out kimchi tastes so good in part because it has sugar added to it. Generally a little sugar balanced by a lot of fiber, granted, so it's probably not too bad... though it is too bad. (For anyone trying to follow a "no added sugar" diet, that is....)

Perhaps.

According to the US Food and Drug Administration, approximately 5-10% of shellfish is infected with vibrio. I ate a large plate of raw crabs, as well as kimchi made with a bit of raw oyster. So it was most likely vibrio. The incubation period for vibrio is approximately 24 hours, which is when symptoms typically start to occur. My symptoms started about 24 hours after my initial feasting, not 24 hours after eating leftovers.

Then, as I continued eating leftovers from the same restaurant (but thoroughly nuking them in the microwave), I quickly recovered and was fine for two and a half days... until about 24 hours after I hazarded eating some cold spicy soup (without heating it).

There are two obvious possible holes in the inferential chains I followed: one, while the other soup was very hot when I opened it, it might not have remained hot enough to kill enough vibrio from cross-contamination; two, the spicy soup might not have been as hot as the other soup.

But I'm a bit surprised that, if my immune system successfully fought off the infection as it seemed to, I didn't then gain temporary immunity from the antibody build up, the way you would if you'd just fought off covid etc. But perhaps so much was ejected by the projectile vomiting and explosive diarrhea that there wasn't much antibody build up.

Or perhaps the infection was dormant for a while? Or was somehow evading detection by immune system and so not causing symptoms?

Guess another possibility is that microwave nuking (of the potentially cross-contaminated, non-crab and non-oyster-kimchi leftovers, that is) only killed some of the vibrio (or other whatever), and that it was building up inside me.

There's a small chance it could have been staphylococcus (staph) or Bacillus cereus, which "produce toxins not destroyed by high cooking temperatures." And those toxins could have been building up.

Food Safety Myths | Washington State Department of Health

But based on the timing, it was most likely vibrio cross-contamination that remained infectious because I dared to not reheat the spicy soup.

Abyss, on 04 December 2024 - 04:33 AM, said:

I'm still confident that I could have continued eating the leftovers and been fine if I had continued nuking them in the microwave (and hadn't given in to the temptation of the forbidden fruit of the cold spicy soup). But by that point I just wanted to get it over with as quickly as possible, so I resisted the temptation to continue experimenting on myself (... in that way... for now).

Of course that's also a large part of how many superstitious taboos persist over generations. And eventually get written into the Bible. "Eat shellfish and Go* will curse you... with goo you will spew out both ends!" ... and then countless generations miss out on the glories of shellfish (even the safe, thoroughly cooked varieties...).

It's like the modern philosopher's parable of the chicken that crossed the road. As proposed by Bertrand Russell. The road was very busy, but every time the chicken crosses it, following sound inductive reasoning, the chicken's estimate of the probability that it will not get run over on subsequent crossings increases. This is also the root of survivorship bias, and the arrogance of many successful ultrawealthy investors or entrepreneurs (and many famous artists...)---though the difference is that the accumulation of wealth and some privileged forms of cultural capital do provide some actual cushion against future risks, whereas the poor chicken is exposed to the elemental cosmic horror of the cars (or horses, tanks, electric scooters, or other even more chicken-mind-unfathomable eldritch horrors of the future...).

Visited my dad over the weekend for his birthday and I was in one of his exhausting moods. Made somewhat worse because I'd say for the best part of a year he's been substantially better.

He lives alone, and is entirely ill-suited to it. He can't do silence and spends far too much time in his own head, getting worked up about whatever nonsense the Daily Mail is claiming people need to be worried about this week. He's 69 this week and feels very out of touch with the modern world, and I think it frightens him. Rather than do anything sensible about that he just retreats into "everything I don't understand is wrong" and likes to then treat us to ranting about it.

Highlights of the day include:

• Backseat driving (because I'm a woman, and we all know they can't drive right?)
• "Surely you know where you're going" when I was inputting where we were headed into the sat nav. Yes, but given we'd both had horrible drives a couple of days prior because of road closures and accidents, forgive me if I just want a quick look to check there's nothing en route. Eventually ended with me saying "Who's driving" and him muttering to himself for a few minutes.
• Throwing arms around while talking and pointing across me (and my field of vision) at places he knows or where people live while I was driving. I actually lost my temper with that because he used to moan constantly about my mum (a non-driver) doing the same to him, and he drives so has absolutely no excuse to be so distracting.
• An all day litany of how the country is broken, nothing works any more, everyone is inconsiderate and breaks the law whenever they feel like it (this was largely about people speeding, and he absolutely did not grasp the irony of then admitting he speeds on a local road "because the limit is ridiculous")
• Long winded rants about things he doesn't understand. He's a bricklayer, has never worked in an office and actively disdains any sort of work that involves being sat at a desk. He gets very buzzwordy and his new favourites are "legislation" ("we used to sell houses without the need for a site manager, a marketing suite, an agent etc, someone clearly brought legislation in that means you have to have all that now") and a new particular bugbear about managers ("If a manager sets up a system that's working, then surely there's no need for the manager anymore"). When we both explained as gently as possible how management works in our industries and that this really isn't the case, he just goes around the point until you stop talking and comes back with "Well, that's how I look at it, nobody's ever explained it to my satisfsaction." Probably because you don't listen and you say these things to be agreed with, not to have a discussion.
• "Did you see this in the news?" only to then be cross when we said no, we hadn't seen whatever the thing was. If you don't want to talk about/know about the things he's decided to talk about, that's a grievous sin apparently.
• Remember that complete inability to do silence? We got to the point of him reading road signs we passed just for the sake of talking. That's how desperate he is for there to not be even a moment of quiet.
• The walk we went on was through a dale we used to visit when I was a kid, and we picked it largely because Si had never been to that part of the Peaks before. The river has dippers which we used to see regularly. "Where's the dipper?". "Come on, we used to see dippers all the time", "I wanted to see the dipper". Probably in the region of 20 times. By the end he was talking to himself because I couldn't be bothered to repeat myself responding any more.

I like to think I'm a fairly patient person, but we live a quiet existence most of the time so to say this is all an assault on the senses is to make an understatement and it feels like dealing with a child. We both came away feeling so low because the talk all day was just depressing.

His one hobby is skiing, so the slight saving grace is he'll have been on one of his multiple annual trips by the time we see him again around Christmas, so should be in a better mood.

Oh man, that's tough for sure. I would lean towards the suggestion Amph made that there's some compensation going on here for something he's not telling you about, or he's covering for. Anytime my father-in-law exhibits his personality traits turned all the way up to ten, it's almost always because something else is going on in his life he's too proud, or afraid to admit.


That said, you have my deepest support as dealing with family who are difficult is not something I love having to do myself. I luck out in that my dad is pretty sane (so was my mom for the most part while she was still with us), but my stepdad, and a few others are very much like your dad in not only their views but their attitude even around people who want to help them.

Modern Warfare Is Breeding Deadly Superbugs. Why?

[...] By 2050, The Lancet predicts that antimicrobial resistance will kill [...] more [people] than the number currently killed by cancer. [...] the 21st-century way of warfare has become a major driver of that spread. Nations of the Middle East, like Iraq, Syria, Yemen and Afghanistan, now suffer from particularly high rates of multidrug-resistant pathogens, and some of the world's most fearsome superbugs have incubated in the region [... including] A. baumannii, a strain of Acinetobacter that traveled home with U.S. soldiers, where it became nicknamed "Iraqibacter."

Spoiler

[...] The microbe tended to stick around [Western] hospitals and was difficult to eradicate. "It's like the ISIS of bacteria[...] The West can't defeat it."

[...] Acinetobacter was absorbing small particles of heavy metals [like those from the very heavy bombs the United States was dropping] and then developing a gene that constructed a pump within the bacteria — an efflux pump — that evacuated the heavy metals. Because heavy metals and antibiotics resemble one another, that same pump worked to expel antibiotics. [...] then it was sharing its recipe with similar bacteria.

[...] roughly 70 percent of his patients from Iraq and almost 80 percent from Syria had infections that were resistant to multiple drugs.

[...] Antibiotics in particular were in short supply; [...] The suboptimal dosing killed some bacteria, but not all, increasing the likelihood of resistance.

[...] Many of the places that now need quality antibiotics are receiving sham versions that are less than full strength. [...]

[...] A pharmaceutical company or nonprofit will donate a big batch of an antibiotic that's near its expiration date [...] that should be reserved as a last-resort medication. "They start to distribute it like bonbons. Everybody will be on meropenem, even if you're not sick," [...] because everyone wants to use the drug before it expires.

In terms of driving resistance, this is like striking a match in a gas station. Bacteria are everywhere in our bodies; antibiotics select for resistance. [...]

[...] "If you dismantle the health infrastructure of urban life, you can take more lives than bombs could ever do," [...]

"We don't have a proper sewage system" in Lebanon[...] "Somebody poops in the south[...] you can taste it in the north."

[...] "The world is a small village[...] The infection that happens in Delhi can have consequences in America and vice versa. So, your measures, however perfect they are, they are useless if they are not applied in all of the world at the same time."

"Water currents in the East Mediterranean travel up from Alexandria past Gaza[...] to Syria, to Greece, Italy. [...] Everything that reaches the sea is going to reach the Earth."

[...] War created the perfect convergence, a toxic biosphere for the acceleration of resistance.

[...] Born in war, antibiotics now risk becoming another of its casualties.

I'm not very surprised that Elon Musk's Grok is one of the stupidest and most erratic famous artificial neural networks out there.

The image of Musk's humanoid robot armies being controlled by Grok in its present state seems... very amusing. (Well, aside from tearing people limb from limb... with a few obvious exceptions. Tossing Musk's head back and forth? Tearing it into pieces to spread the wealth around?)

Grok controlling fleets of autonomous killer drones---a bit less so...

But yeah, for general artificial intelligence, it seems like they still have a long ways to go. Though in one small study ChatGPT did outperform doctors at diagnosing patients based on text case studies (which apparently could not have been included in the ANN's training data):

Quote

doctors who were given ChatGPT-4 along with conventional resources did only slightly better than doctors who did not have access to the bot. And, to the researchers' surprise, ChatGPT alone outperformed the doctors.

"I was shocked," [...]

The chatbot

Spoiler

scored an average of 90 percent [...] Doctors randomly assigned to use the chatbot got an average score of 76 percent. Those randomly assigned not to use it had an average score of 74 percent.

[...] The case histories used in the study were based on real patients [...] The cases intentionally have never been published so that medical students and others could be tested on them without any foreknowledge. That also meant that ChatGPT could not have been trained on them.

It unveiled doctors' sometimes unwavering belief in a diagnosis they made, even when a chatbot potentially suggests a better one.

ChatGPT Defeated Doctors at Diagnosing Illness - The New York Times

And now---with new approaches like OpenAI's o1---some ANNs are able to reason:

Quote

OpenAI's attempted path to superintelligence is defined by parrots and rats. ChatGPT and other such products—the stochastic parrots—are designed to find patterns among massive amounts of data, to relate words, objects, and ideas. o1 is the maze-running rodent, designed to navigate those statistical models of the world to solve problems.

Spoiler

Prediction-based bots, such as [...] earlier versions of ChatGPT, generate words at a roughly constant rate, without pause—they don't, in other words, evince much thinking. [...] those programs do not (and cannot) on their own look backward and evaluate what they've written for errors.

But o1 works differently, exploring different routes until it finds the best one[...] Reasoning models can answer harder questions when given more "thinking" time[...] o1 appears to be "searching through lots of potential, emulated 'reasoning' chains on the fly,"

To be fair, it's misnamed anyways. It's not AI at all. It's machine learning based on algorithms from existing art and images and videos across the net.

That used to be the case, but generative AI has gotten good at drawing hands and feet (most of the time). See for example:

(10) AI can draw hands very well now: A double-edged sword for deep-fakes | LinkedIn

Or from March of last year:

AI Image Generators Finally Figured Out Hands

But I miss the old bizarrely messed up images (my fingers are Legion!)... they were adding something (somewhat) new to art. Including some intricately eccentric, imagination-expanding images that humans might have had a hard time imagining before. Still love the Cursed AI (and Blursed AI, and Crazed AI) Facebook groups. Oh wait, here's the latest post, and it messes up the hands in a really weird and (accidentally, I'd assume?) meaningful way:



Puney god

Notice how the hand of Jesus and his (inaccurately helmed) Viking tormenter bizarrely merge together... but also so smoothly that most people probably wouldn't notice unless they focused on it. For just as Jesus, who cries out on the Cross, "Lord Lord why have you forsaken me?" is also the afforementioned Lord Go*, and omnipresent, so too is he part of the Viking's hand... it's like the Sistine Chapel, except they're not only actually touching, but part of the same body. Like the Farsi (Persian) inscription at the entrance to the United Nations:

Quote

Human beings [literally "sons of Adam"] are parts of one body,
In creation they are indeed of one nature.
If a body part is afflicted with pain,
Other body parts uneasy will remain.

The flight and overall behavior/patterns between them are totally different. The “methhead” drones are flying around what would have been that damn solar farm.
