Sources, a few more items and relevant Wikipedia articles are in 2024 in science.

Now making these quarterly instead of monthly (posted most of the previous ones only to reddit). I’m making these summaries so you can stay up to date with the latest science even if you only have little time. Also updating Wikipedia articles sooner or later.

You can get a quarterly email notification here. Non-included items and criteria can be found here.

If you don't understand the study itself or in general if you're interested in it, it's always a good idea to also read a good news report on it; see this and also this. They found carrot intake rather than beta-carotene, the focus of prior studies, has this association and figure 6 was just to show that they don't have much data on daily intake of a carrot or more.

Higher accuracy was achieved in an earlier study where another team used large fMRI machines (it was featured in the version for May). There participants listened to audiobooks / speech while being in the large machine; I guess long training would be easier here but it's more limited since it's EEG. However, they claim they have exceeded 60% by now.

The study is here.

In 30 prospective studies with 9331 cases reporting plasma α-carotene levels, summary [relative risk] was 0.80.

10% reduction of less frequent intake of carrots seems more robustly backed by the data. Hopefully, some new study provides more info how big of an effect daily carrots have; see Figure 6.

Die Nachrichtenartikel-Quellen musste ich auskommentieren. Die Studien selbst sollten aber normal angezeigt werden. Liegt an dem aktuellem "post-expand include size"-Limit. Habe einige anscheinend überfällige technische Änderungen vorgeschlagen, vermutlich könnte aber auch ohne diese der Wert einfach geändert werden was das Problem lösen würde und wodurch wieder zwei Quellen pro Item angezeigt werden würden.

 

Sources and relevant Wikipedia articles are in 2023 in science.

This is the latest summary and last one for 2023. I'm making these summaries so you can stay up to date even if you only have little time while updating Wikipedia articles. Monthly mail notification here. A few more items are in the Wiki article. Non-included items and criteria can be found here.

 

Quellen sind im WP Artikel 2023 in science zu finden. Mache diese monatlichen Zusammenfassungen seit einigen Jahren gemäß dieser Kriterien, damit man auch mit wenig Zeit mehr oder weniger auf dem aktuellen Stand der Forschung sein kann.

No, they just added lots of data for one of the multiple things that current emulation efforts (just like neural networks / brain-inspired AI software) so far didn't even include (neuropeptides).

There's no reason for why it would now be possible to simulate complex nervous system processes, but maybe this could enable getting closer to that. I don't know what you mean with "outside behavior" though. Maybe you're referring to the behavior in some simulation like this?

 

Sources + relevant Wikipedia articles are in 2023 in science.

Making the summaries so you can get up to date fast. Cut the number of tiles down from 10 to 8 (only 2 main items this time). Monthly notification. More items are in the WP article and non-included items with criteria are here.

2023 in science (en.wikipedia.org)
 

For reflection on science and its results and reviews of the year in science.
I'm interested in how to integrate these results into Wikipedia and society. Criteria for inclusion and non-included are here.

There are tons of options for that, mainly energy storage such as batteries, hydro, and green hydrogen. Nuclear is not needed and too expensive among other things.

It's because the education system is utterly outdated across the world. No digital literacy, media literacy, or health literacy in the curriculum but lots of things you'll never need and forget to never be useful again within a few months. Studies should investigate things relating to this subject.

It's also because of the quality of search engine results but both are directly linked, people need to learn how to use search engines etc.

Seems like quite some progress in nanobiotech there.

See wetware computer for more info about this. Some studies in "2023 in science" will get integrated there soon, there have been similar recent studies.

Making these summaries so you can stay up to date with the latest major studies in short time.

I also integrate most of the studies into Wikipedia; finding, editing & selection take most of the time, not the image. Monthly newsletter is here (I don't know if it still sends the mails properly sth happened to the upvotes a few months ago). This one is a bit late again since I get absolutely no benefit of doing this as a volunteer. Links to the criteria and list of nonincluded items; I've been making these summaries for >3 years for free. Check out the website Kialo for structured argument debates on topics like 'How did our universe begin'. More Wikipedia editors & devs and Wikimedia Commons science images contributors are needed.

Here's the sources for only the four main items:

Danke für die ausführliche Argumentation. Bis dato ist mir unklar wieso man rational gegen diese Widerspruchslösung sein könnte, von daher ist das sehr interessant. Halte dein Hauptargument aber für falsch:

es würde die Zahl der Spender nicht nur minimal sondern fast maximal erhöhen. Die 13 Fälle, die du hier nennst, beziehen sich ja auf die Fälle, die bei der aktuellen Opt-In-Lösung in Betracht gezogen wurden. Wenn man die Zahlen aktueller frühzeitiger Todesfälle anschaut sind die Zahlen möglicher Spender deutlich höher. Man kann dann beispielsweise direkt die Transplantationsprozesse einleiten (sofern nicht im Opt-Out Register gefunden): entnehmen, konservieren, Empfänger kontaktieren, etc. Die weiteren Probleme die es sicher auch gibt, benötigen zur Lösung dennoch erst mal die Einführung des Opt-In-Systems.

Wenn die Widerspruchslösung so populär ist, dann kann man sie doch einfach einführen. Dann kann man sich danach um die verbleibenden Probleme kümmern, da dieses Problem dann wegfällt und die verbleibenden Probleme einfacher zu lösen sind (d.h. bei Opt-In Systemen kann der Prozentsatz der Fälle "Bis die Entnahmeteams in der richtigen Klinik und die Organe entnommen sind, sind sie längst nicht mehr zu gebrauchen" schnell substanziell reduziert werden).

It's more or less only (that is mainly) useful for building components that you then use in your man-made tracks. It's a tool, just like AI image generators are tools albeit there the replacement use-case is substantial. AI-generated voice also needs to be considered in this context I think.

Es ist absolut verantwortungslos und unethisch dass es in Deutschland kein Organspende-by-Default System gibt. Das würde das Problem lösen und jeder der nicht spenden möchte schickt einfach einen Brief oder macht online einen Haken. Ich denke es bedarf nur einer politischen Entscheidung um diese vielen Leben zu retten.
