You’re really gonna double down? :lol:

This facepalm is on you, dude
Y’all need to read this article more carefully…
quote:

Their main analysis concentrated on 821 people who had used a GLP-1 medication at some point.
quote:

Across the full sample, higher levels of impulsivity and greater alcohol use were both strongly linked to violent behavior.
quote:

The strongest finding in the study was that the well-established link between impulsivity and violent behavior was substantially weaker among current GLP-1 users compared to former users
This doesn’t necessarily tell us that GLP1s lower the proclivity for violence. They identify that there is still a strong link between impulsivity and violence for current GLP1 users.

They only say that that link is weaker in current users than in former users. Yes, the hopeful possibility is that the current use of GLP1 is weakening the urge to violence… but the more troubling possibility is that the withdrawal of the GLP1 is raising the urge to violence.

This paper is 100% consistent with a hypothetical story that says ending a GLP1 treatment will increase the former user’s proclivity for violence. Since the authors confusingly did not include the baseline associate for the full population (which is itself suspect), we just have to hope that the violence increase for former users is a jump that returns to baseline rather than a jump that exceeds baseline.
Any model you build is going to pale in comparison to the models built by the multi-billion dollar conglomerates who are setting the lines. There is not world where your model will be better than theirs.

It is a simple, fundamental truth in modern sports gambling. 99.999% of the time, you are at a disadvantage. The 0.001% outlier is if you have personal information on one of the players… in which case, better watch out for the feds.
Arrogant fricks continue thinking they can micromanage complex systems, no matter how many times they’re proven wrong.


You can almost guarantee this is going to create more problems than it solves.
57% critics, 76% audience

While not a world beater score, it’s still promising any time the audience score is higher than the critic score
This thread makes it easy to tell who the sock puppets are
As a foundational ideology, you are correct that it’s a toxic and self-defeating mindset.



But all the same, it is becoming more and alluring to a larger chunk of people for a very understandable reason… too much of our economic system has drifted away from rewarding value creation and towards rewarding rent extraction.

Our economy works best when we reward those who create value. Instead, we’re seeing more people amass their wealth by extracting economics rents without creating any new value in the process. And the more we orient our political economy to reward this type of wealth extraction, the more people we’re going to see getting tricked into thinking that the solution is to simply tax the rich.
Brazil v Morocco was number 5 v 6 in the world. Not sure what more you could ask for in group play.
You’ll get downvoted, but every word you typed is accurate
And yet, you just gave him exactly the type of free advertising YouTube was counting on!
Gotcha. Well good news is that the movie is almost out, so we can soon judge it on its own merits instead of people fixating over what celebs say for the gossip mags.

If we actually get a GOTG/mad max hybrid, word of mouth will carry it. If that’s just paid influencers repeating the same talking point to keep their insider status, it’ll flop on those merits too.
So his defense to “this is going to take too much energy” is “don’t worry, you already didn’t have enough”?

Bold strategy
You think left wing psychos are going to lift a single finger to help Vance? :lol: :dope:
