> The big next step is to look at other patient populations -- such as the pediatric population -- to see if there are similar changes.

Bad, bad idea. This will go down like a cup of hot sick with most parents.


Also, it's a much noiser data-set, especially since puberty seems to be starting earlier.

You can kind of get by if you ensure you're population is all pre-pubescent or all post-pubescent and similar in age. But anything in between is a mess of confounders.


sed 's/fox/CNN/Ig'


I’m not a fan of CNN, but they do a better job at distinguishing the difference between news and editorial.

The Fox issue is they conflate the two. I used to watch alot of TV news and the actual news content was pretty good on Fox on national issues, but their affiliates were usually pretty awful.

The news product produced by the networks until circa 1999 were a superior product in every way. Cable outlets have always danced with these issues as a TV channel that says the same thing all day gets boring.


> but they do a better job

The Onion does a better job than Fox.


"The Onion wins Pulitzer; expresses confusion: editor says 'we were just drinking at the pub and started making shit up; we didn't know it was real!'"


CNN isn't good, but it's not even close to being equivalent. I doubt there's a single news org that doesn't let their bias slip from time to time, but let's not pretend that makes them all the same or that there aren't some much much worse than others.

I’ve seen this false equivalency being regurgitated over and over whenever someone points out that Fox News is actually a far-right propaganda outlet.


That’s part of the mechanism to bolster RW propaganda: pay no attention to this serial killer over here, because the person next to him double parks.



NO. Not that one. It explains the easy parts at (boring, pseudo-funny) length and expects you to understand the hard parts after a few sentences.


It's good at explaining those easy parts, though. It also encourages experimentation in the REPL. For a more complete understanding, I agree that it must be accompanied by some more reference-style material.


I have a Secret Lab Titan which I'm happy with. It's very comfortable and has good lower back support.

I’ll second this! I bought the Titan about 6 months ago and it’s been amazing. I can use it for long work and gaming sessions and stay totally comfortable without any back or leg pain like I used to have with a previous chair. The lumbar support is also adjustable which is great.
