@AmpBenzScientist Generally most medications are dosed per half life. But daily dosing should get you to saturation about as quickly as dosing per half life.

General rule is closer to 3 or 4 half lives

Im honestly not sure if scuba will be effected at all

@freemo That's probably the correct estimation. I had the joy of using Adderall as the drug for estimating concentration. It has only two enantiomers, what could be complicated about it? It was only two doses per half life of the S enantiomer.

The previous Mathematical Model was of Paramecium Plasmodium with treatment and natural reservoirs. I chose a specific variant with some treatment resistance and chloroquine as the only treatment. Oh that was a fun model.

@AmpBenzScientist I wouodnt give up math for it, but afterschool sports, absolutely.

@freemo Public education doesn't teach Mathematics in a sensible way. In College I worked as a peer tutor in Mathematics. The amount of students I encountered that were in remedial Math was staggering.

They were failed by the system. It doesn't take a rocket surgeon to realize that Algebra and Trigonometry can be taught to elementary school students or Middle School students.

Knowledge, Discipline, Character and Drive are the keys to anything great in life.

I met a plumber who was working in the apartment that I lived in as a kid. Is there a reason why that plumber taught me enough trig in an hour that I was able to out perform my peers for a few years?

I was sick in elementary school and I had to go to college with my sister. It was A&P that day and after establing that I wasn't going to be a disruption in the class, I was able to stay and participate. I passed their exam and I was having so much fun just being there.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that many levels of difficulty are not too great for a child. It takes a hostile environment, abuse and neglect to make a young mind have difficulty.

Give a growing mind as much knowledge as it can handle, it's not a flame but rather an inferno.

Have an Air Force Officer start teach children about fighter jets and they will soon realize that the children don't run out of questions and their thirst can't be quenched. That's how I got an Airman to get more Airmen to take me away to something else cool. Tbf there was an SR-71 in front of me. How does it fly that fast and what is this RAM made of? That's likely why I was taken aside and given a talk about the U-2.

I might have mentioned something about carbon, ferrite or some other material I read about. I was escorted away from the SR-71 by two Airmen. My teacher was told to mind their own business. :ablobcatbongo:

Any funny stories from your childhood Dr. Freemo?

As some of you know ive been on / / once daily instead of the usual weekly.

I created a log of my historic blood accumulation when i was on once weekly and now that im on a daily adjusted dose. The blue lines show total amount in my blood, red i dicates equivelant weekly dose based on daily dose x7 and yellow is based on expected blood concentration.

As you can see the daily dosing produces much more constant levels. This is based on the typocal 7 day half life.

@freemo The rule of thumb in Pharmacology is 2 to 3 half lives with daily dosing before the Limit is approximately reached.

I learned that after around 10 pages of calculations and a professor told me that it didn't need to be that precise. Nice graph, SAGE was the best experience I've ever had with Mathematics Software. Graphs set to output into a LaTeX document or Beamer Presentation, oh god it was amazing.

I wish you well on your journey. Scuba will be a little different now but I'm sure you can handle it.

@thor Religious extremists, tobacco, cotton and realizing that Britain's rule is an affront to the gods.

@freemo One could blame liberals for a lack of this useful education in our schools. The amount of time it would take to teach a group of kids how to field strip their AR would be far less than teaching bastardized Mathematics.

The USMC and USAF should adopt a bunch of children. It would be beautiful because at least the military would give a damn about the kids. If only there was a department that didn't destroy potential, make criminals and give themselves raises.

Im just going to refer to the fediverse as "decentralized ICQ" from now on. You are welcome.

@thor We should take the test subjects and give them ceramic coated teeth. Armor grade ceramic teeth with more aggressive canine incisors.

@freemo @lupyuen It makes more sense when I look at an RTOS. It also makes sense why it's in the Privileged category.

A few NOPs exist in RISC-V but it's rather clever that WFI would be used instead of NOP. It should allow time sensitive operations to run as soon as they become ready.

I want to try and dip those shitty eco-friendly paper straws in stearin to see what happens. Maybe they're nicer with a wax coating.

I mean, beeswax is eco-friendly? Why not dip straws in beeswax to make them water resistant?

@thor Maybe you should use a steel drinking container and pressurize it so you can just drink without a straw. When it's clean and dry, it should work well for cleaning electronics.

@thor There are reusable ones made of glass or steel but they are too short.
