My dictionary says ”industrially produced food”, i.e. frozen and ready to eat meals, snacks, confections, etc.

The issue is that the plastics and non-stick coatings leach off plasticizers and forever-chemicals which cause hormone and neurotransmitter disruption in humans, which cause obesity, diabetes, autoimmune disorders, cancer and other serious disease.


This is a first. I've never even heard of a definitions of processed foods that is based on their packaging. But what you're saying is that it is not the food or things added to the food but the packaging that makes it processed?


Slap them into entity-normalized subgraphs and now you can compose all your databases, indexes, queues, etc. into one supergraph where you can seamlessly resolve entity fields across all your data stores.


”Some risk factors during adolescence and adulthood have also been described, such as having an occupation as a fire-fighter, working with aircraft maintenance and marijuana smoking”

Firefighters and aircraft mechanics get exposed to high levels of PFAS, but what is the devil’s lettuce doing here?


Looked into it and they cite this study:

https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle...

Which explicitly states that the link is unclear. So it seems to me like they're really grasping at straws here.


Burning anything releases carcinogens as far as I'm aware.


Last I saw epidemiological data, cannabis smokers had a slightly lower odds ratio for lung cancer (<1.0) than non-anything-smokers (=1.0), while tobacco smokers had an OR in the high single digits (>8.0)


I mean, it's literally smoking? Inhaling burnt matter.


Alcohol is more likely to cause psychosis than any drugs.


From my experience of people I know who've drank alcohol and who've used psychedelics, I'd say no, not at all. The psychedelics are probably >1000x more likely to cause psychosis.


Anything happening under the influence is not classified as a psychosis, mind you.



”although the possible association with psychotic symptomatology seems clear, the scientific community is far from being able to provide conclusive evidence on this topic”

You need to read the actual text and not just the title.


NHS has

>Psychosis is when people lose some contact with reality. This might involve seeing or hearing things that other people cannot see or hear (hallucinations) and believing things that are not actually true (delusions).

Much more of that with LSD than beer


https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK459134/

> Psychosis associated with alcohol can occur with acute intoxication, alcohol withdrawal, as well as in patients with chronic alcohol use disorder. The specific diagnosis of alcohol-related psychosis is also known as alcohol hallucinosis. It is a relatively rare consequence of alcohol use. However, it may be more prevalent than classically thought depending on the inclusion criteria used for diagnosis. In alcohol-related psychosis, symptoms of psychosis present during or shortly after heavy alcohol intake. Clinically, alcohol-related psychosis is similar to schizophrenia but has been found to be a unique and independent condition. It is characterized by hallucinations, paranoia, and fear.

...

> A 2015 Dutch literature review on alcohol-related psychotic disorder found that there is a 0.4% lifetime prevalence in the general population and a 4% prevalence in patients with alcohol dependence.


Today many people learn that there are thousands of different LSD-like psychedelics (and other drugs) they don’t talk about in schools


Remember, Morgellon’s is a fictitious disease.


File reading excluded, CSV to array is like two generator functions and a main, even with rudimentary schema support. No reason to add a dependency at all.


The web has always been inherently complex, so it is only logical that frameworks for building things on the web have evolved to tackle all the possible complexity. Of course also the introduction of handheld devices and duplex multimedia features has made the web more complex, but mostly we just didn’t care 20 years ago, because we could get away with less. Now, more and more things are exposed to us every day, requiring us to grok it all to be able to make day-to-day decisions.

No wonder so many people turn to magical thinking, cargo cult coding or Uncle Bob -like messiahs.


The short version: have your harmony or bassline go down when your lead melody goes up, or vice versa.

(It’s not that easy in theory but that is the gist of it.)


Glaucoma is the one and only indication for which the United States government has been supplying select individuals with government-grown medicinal cannabis since the 70’s.
