I can't find it now but I once read that people who report the "paradoxical reaction" to stimulants have a significantly better outcome from stimulant medications, and both those values seem to have higher heritability than ADHD as a whole, possibly even linked to a single gene.
But when's the last time you had $300 million in your personal budget to spend on advertising to a specific human being to improve your personal income?
When's the last time you got a call from an actual politician begging you for money and "support"?
US congress members spend the vast vast majority of their time on the phone begging a list of rich people for a piss of nickles to fund advertising for their next election. There's always a subtle threat of strings attached.
Both the prince and pauper are forbidden from sleeping under the bridge.
The vast majority of people don't want to take the bet of a tiny chance of doubling their lot in life for the downside risk of literally being tortured and dying and probably ruining the life of any loved ones.
Most people aren't degenerate gamblers.
The workaround is organization. With sufficient organization, you can start to drag the tiny chance to a slightly bigger chance, and slightly reduce the downside risk maybe.
Some parts of American society are absurdly bad at organizing, and basically gave up 60 years ago.
But we did not depose his regime, we just stole him. Not like the US could reliably depose a foreign regime anyway, but this shouldn't be accepted as an excuse.
He indeed was an illegitimate ruler, but that is completely unrelated to what we did.
I’m not debating that. But as Venezuelan I’d like to put that in context. Because it’s important as well. For us even if you think it’s weird it is a glimmer of hope. A bit of justice even if the regime is still in power.
I want to reject such complicated feelings because I don't want the mild support of what our Administration did, and the intrinsic violation of Venezuelan sovereignty, but real life is complicated and things are complicated.
I just want better. But we so rarely get that.
Good Luck. Hopefully we are done with our meddling for now.
Texas has laws that limit medical malpractice suit judgement amounts. This is because it's a common talking point among the very ignorant in the US that healthcare is expensive because of "Bullshit lawsuits and medical malpractice insurance and that mcdonalds coffee lady".
Texas still doesn't have radically or meaningfully cheaper healthcare than places who have not implemented that scheme.
Also nice to see Greg Abbot personally intervening in the lawsuits (as AG) to ensure that justice was not served.
Lots of poor people have in residence electricity boxes that require prepayment for usage. In the olden days you put a coin in to turn on the power, but nowadays they have apps and digital payment solutions!
This is all news to me. It seems like it would be tough to prevent people from just using the power that's going to that box.
I guess I'm out of touch, because I've never heard of anything like this. I've had my power turned off for non-payment before, but I had to talk to someone at the utility to get it switched back on.
When that incident first happened and was on the news it was so weird.
Did she really expect to get away with that? It seemed so obvious and her attempts to not be culpable were terrible.
Reading that, there's a strong implication she tried to poison her husband once already, and that information was not allowed into this case!
Also, apparently she inherited $2 million?! Actually it's a little weird that she gets a page long "Early life and background" style section. Lots of public people have shorter ones. That's somewhat uncomfortable.
I'm not surprised, but I think it's fair to find it upsetting. It's a twofold loss: A loss of competition in all markets that Apple monopolizes, and a loss of everybody working towards protecting that golden goose instead of actually improving the product.
This absolutely happens to my father, who uses coffee as a sleep aid but the science is sketchy.
It is documented but I don't know if it is scientifically valid
