In a sane country you would ask why the public funding was not contingent to a pre-approved pricing model for something like this. But as we know...

Shame Boy posted:There's a lot of like "gosh what if ADHD is just [thing]" going around that both completely ignores the actual experience of ADHD people and history and science done regarding it and trivializes the whole thing in the eyes of the public, ultimately resulting in making it harder for people like me to get meds or be taken seriously, so I kinda react a bit hard about stuff like this. I'm sure you didn't intend to do that or anything though so it's all good, and I really appreciate you taking a step back to reconsider and not just doubling down on it, thanks for that actually adhd is heightened battle reflexes

Plank Walker posted:i had a random thought the other day that it would be pretty funny if ADHD was the result of a learned response to ignoring advertising gone too far. it's a constant arms race between the viewer, to develop techniques to filter garbage ad content out from "real" content, and the advertiser, to make ad content that is more focus-worthy than "real" content There is strong evidence that the uptick in ADHD and autism are both the result of giving tylenol to pregnant women and extremely young children. There's a dose-dependent response curve between tylenol levels in preserved cord blood, and the big increase in population prevalence happens right after aspirin was counterindicated for children due to Reye's syndrome. This also means that the crazy anti-vaxx parents were actually noticing something real, but when they saw their kid being given MMR and a tylenol, they blamed the wrong drug.

no it's a real thing pediatricians are more than happy to discuss with you if you're pregnant or a new parent problem is, it's still less dangerous than ibuprofen for a pregnant woman or babby, and much much less dangerous than, say, a fever

Acetominophen is a painkiller. It does nothing for fevers. e: I was partly wrong - there is "some evidence" it helps with fever. I was always told though that the only reason to use it is for pain relief, not fevers or coughs or whatever that it's commonly used as a placebo for.

the tylenol and ADHD/Autism connection has always been spooky to me because my mom has always used tylenol as long as I can remember and guess what both me and my brother have  through the actual reason is most likely she had me and my brother late...with my dad being much older than her. I'd probably say it's the primary cause of most of the genetic issues people have these days. people didn't used to have kids at these ages in significant numbers.

ADHD is pretty well understood as being genetically inherited with a huge amount of research supporting that, so claims that it's caused by an environmental factor during childbirth are incredibly dubious. The idea that ADHD prevalence is increasing is also not support by research, it is still significantly underdiagnosed and there is perhaps an argument that it is also misdiagnosed in certain populations. Though you also start to run into issues in terms of ADHD as an etiological diagnosis describing neurodevelopment vs. a behavioral one describing symptoms.

bike tory posted:it's a significant and important study but it's just straight up wrong (and also kinda alarmist) to say that the upward trend in ADHD and Autism are a result of increased acetaminophen use The noted effect size (a 2-3x risk increase) and uptick in tylenol usage by pregnant women is sufficient to cause a large upward trend by itself; if the median tertile of acetaminophen in cord blood has double the risk of adhd compared to the lowest tertile, then the fact that the majority of US women now take it during pregnancy *should* be alarming. Now, as far as natural experiments go, Cuba actually has acetaminophen as a prescription drug instead of OTC, and their rates of autism and adhd are far lower than the US. (Un)fortunately, cuba has uhc, which means that - while every person in cuba has a chance to be diagnosed instead of slipping through the cracks - the rest of the medical system is also different in numerous ways which could easily act as a confound. But if you want to conduct a full on controlled select-random-pregnancies-and-forbid-tylenol-to-them experiment, i'll be glad to hear from you in a decade once you get through IRB approval and start collecting data

I was hoping to find that brigade of people who are still mad at Sarah Jeong in the replies but nah i guess they only follow her directly, the worst I've found is someone arguing about how "um actually people who want to get rid of ~cancel culture~ are all about academic and journalistic freedom and not about protecting bigoted oil barons" like dog c'mon

The Bloop posted:What the hell it makes perfect sense from a class war perspective. look at parliamentary trains: quote:The reaction of many railway companies was grudging acceptance of the letter, if not the spirit of the legislation, and they provided the minimum one train per day with facilities for third class passengers at an unpopular time such as early morning or late at night. These were the original Parliamentary trains. The reason for the reluctance was to avoid losing revenue if passengers who could afford to travel second class switched to third if facilities there became bearable. Some companies continued to run inferior third or fourth class trains in addition to the minimum standard parliamentary train. this is one of the reasons capitalism can't allow itself to improve humanity as a whole. there always needs to be a lovely experience prominently displayed that scares people into paying for a better experience.

She's a Cool Journalist who came to yospos once to talk about bitcoins before abruptly leaving due to goons being terrible. She later got a job at the New York Times which caused the entirety of the right to melt down because she said a mean thing about white people once. She even got her own Ben Garrison comic, which is some kind of badge of honor I guess:  Anyway there's a cohort of people that to this day follow her goddamn twitter and reply to every goddamn tweet with YEAH BUT WHAT ABOUT WHITE PEOPLE YOU RACIST PIG or some variant on that.

She has a law degree.
