  • I can’t speak for cancer specifically but a lot of research out there isn’t in easily parseable formats for people to sort through using traditional methods, and LLMs have been pretty helpful for adding to evidence of specific effects to be able to pare down the list of millions of compounds out there to a number that’s worth testing in the research I’ve been a part of. I’m about as skeptical as anyone can be of the use of LLMs in the medical field and try to avoid using them whenever possible but one of the only things they’re good for is parsing more text than any human is capable of in short amounts of time which is unfortunately useful for first passes in a lot of the work that goes into therapeutics development

    Working in academia I’ve had to explain to a lot of girls that older men flirting with them repeatedly isn’t a normal thing and they should 100% report them to the proper channels if they felt uncomfortable. It sucks that even when there’s any amount of support it’s still so poorly communicated.



  • The issue afaik is that Jeff bezos’s $200B is in assets like stocks, and the buy borrow die strategy of getting loans using assets as collateral lets rich people spend money without actually cashing in said assets which would trigger capital gains taxes. Idk how to stop this prevalent strategy but between that and the corporate tax system ignoring money that goes back into the company letting corporations invest their profits to ignore taxes that’s why so few taxes are collected on those groups. Feel free to correct anything inaccurate.
