Scientifically speaking,
Why woman performing solo erotica/porn, I mean those girls who insert rubber dicks and such are so bad at viewing angles / post-production?
Where the quality of porn disappeared? Why there is so much porn, and so little of good one, while we could have more of high quality porn with less total porn in quantity?
Also, why algorythms on brand new device, logged out no cookies on porn sites show me only dick, and when I look for girls masterbating, it only shows them inserting something into anus, or one gigantic pussy that fills all the screen?

Is it true that people unironically try to simulate quantum computers in a direct product basis? Wouldn't that be incredibly fraudulent a benchmark? Tensor contraction is the de facto standard in most QM simulations now.
🗑️ 🧵 Why does this method fail?

So in calculus class we were looking at the proofs of the derivatives of the inverse trigonometric functions. It went something like this:
Suppose we have [math]y = \arcsin x[/math], then we can take [math]\sin[\math] on both sides and we get [math]\sin y = x[/math]. Then we can use implicit differentiation to get: [math]\cos y \frac{dy}{dx} = 1[/math], then [math]\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{\cos y}[/math]. From here we can use the fact that [math]\sin y = x[/math] and imagine a right triangle where one of the acute angles is [math]y[/math], the side opposite to that angle is [math]x[/math] and the hypotenuse is [math]1[/math]. This means that the missing side is equal to [math]\sqrt{1-x^2}[/math], and therefore [math]\cos y = \frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}}{1}[/math]. If we substitute that we get [math]\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}[/math], which is exactly what you should get. You can continue like this and you would get all the other ones right, except for [math]\sec^{-1}[/math] and [math]\csc^{-1}[/math]. If you follow the method, you get: [math]\frac{d}{dx}\sec^{-1}x = \frac{1}{x \sqrt{x^2-1}}[/math] and [math]\frac{d}{dx}\cos^{-1}x = \frac{-1}{x \sqrt{x^2-1}}[/math], but that is not the correct result, as you can see is missing the absolute value. So what gives? Why does the method fail for some but it's correct for others?

🧵 Nutrition experts: The natural state of the human body is to be high, all the time

The nutritionists Sally Fallon and Natasha Campbell-McBride propose that humans are supposed to be constantly happy and claim that the reason why people become addicted to drugs is because they are malnourished. Their theory claims that people are supposed to eat raw meat, eggs, dairy and honey as only they have the enzymes and bacteria to be fully digested and repair the body. Thoughts?

🧵 Why do alcoholics live so long?
Anonymous at Fri, 19 Jul 2024 13:53:36 UTC No. 16288390
Because everybody knows some chainsmoking granny who inhaled a bottle of gin a day and lived to 98.
Why is this so? Are the people who are super into health just victims of health fads that chase whatever random thing it is this week that is thought to help? Are these statistical outliers?
Whatever it is, please justify it to me because I am drinking right from a bottle of Aldi's Tamova Vodka as I write this and I want to be assured that whisky and steak will last me to 92, when I will die in battle against communists with stage 5 dementia.
Could it be that studies about alcohol, that show it's ill effects, conflate alcohol as a group, and specific kinds of alcohol (e.g. spirits) are better (due to distillation removing harmful impurities)?
Thanks to any answers

I have a medical question here and I need your help. I apologize in advance because my test results are translated with Google Translate. These are the results:
Patient referred by: orthopedist.
Main complaint: weakness of the left hand.
Medical documentation attached.
ELECTROMYOGRAPHY
No spontaneous activity was registered in the examined muscles.
M. extensor digitorum communis sin - individual abortive potentials
ELECTRONEUROGRAPHY
In the examined muscles of the upper extremities, signs of a severe, neurogenic lesion on the left hand.
Velocity of motor conduction GE: velocity of n.radialis on the left hand is not registered after proximal stimulation
GE conductivity sensor speed: slightly reduced speed n. radialis left
Distal latency (DL): neat
CMAP amplitude: low.
SNAP amplitude: reduced.
Dg: G56.3 Mononeuropathies of hand, lesion of radial nerve
Conclusion:
The finding speaks in favor of a more severe lesion of the left radial nerve
Recommendation
physical treatment
perform an ultrasound of the left elbow with an emphasis on the radial nerve
introduce Neuronal caps 1x1 into the therapy for two months
control EMNG GE for 3 months
Can you give it to me straight because even though they mentioned severe damage they only recommend physical therapy?
