I was wondering how medicine shortage axe would fall on fat meds. If the West doesn’t re-industrialize the population can’t stay this size for long. “Degrowth” aka Communism requires population cullings to stay manageable. Fat drugs won’t be needed as breadlines become common, but basic medicine will also be hard to get as is already happening. Hopefully people figure that out before it’s too late.

@AmpBenzScientist @freemo @admitsWrongIfProven I personally recommend all new hires get hired into a 1 month probation period.

Most companies will fire you after that time if you're not performing well enough, so giving that period a name and letting them know the stakes up front is just good business.

upstreaming imx258 driver work continues! Its my first attempt at upstreaming anything to the #linux kernel and even submitting patches via a mail list so its been a learning experience for me and a rough one at that but soon the #pinephonepro will be able to use a mainline camera driver and get something useful out of it and will greatly improve #libcamera support since even downstream was missing lots for it.

People figuring out a deindustrialized nation can’t even build bridges. Saw a quote for decade+ and $2-5B for replacement of Francis Scott Key Bridge.

Like I was saying “where would they even get the steel?” People aren’t yet asking “can/should they rebuild the bridge?” yet.

So true, the party is loony tunes, the principles not too horrible for many things

No, they just want to ban guns. They don’t allow manufacturers in their state, and now want to ban them in other states.

I think English gets a lot of its sexiness from French. The Latin languages are good at sexy. What the Anglo-Saxons spoke before the Normans assaulted the language wasn't that smooth. Germanic languages are pragmatic. Dating in a Germanic speaking country is more about body language than flowery language. Okay, so I'm exaggerating a little, but it's not entirely wrong...

@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

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

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.

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