Dialing down the use of social media for a week reduced symptoms of anxiety, depression and insomnia in young adults, according to a study published on Monday in the journal JAMA Network Open.
Study Finds Mental Health Benefit to One-Week Social Media Break
Young adults who engaged in a social media “detox” reported reductions in depression, anxiety and insomnia, though it was unclear how long the effects would last.

As families gather for the holidays, it’s easier for contagious viruses to spread, putting vulnerable groups at risk. Thankfully, widespread vaccination prevents these diseases from spreading and keeps everyone healthy. Learn more. www.healthychildren.org/English/safe...

It's wild, not surprised by any of what I'm discovering, or what others are, but nonetheless, it's wild and a lot more people will be quitting X because of it.
X’s new About This Account feature is going great | TechCrunch
A new feature seemingly revealed many right-wing “America First” accounts are actually based outside the United States. But the data seems questionable.

No Linkedin, tipos engravatados estão há dias a ver quem lambe as botas ao CR e aos sauditas com mais afinco. Menosprezam qualquer centelha de espírito crítico ou preocupação humanitária como "virtue signaling" (aprenderam esta com a extrema-direita). Nos dias ímpares, enchem a boca com "liberdade".

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.
A Twitter account called Ivanka News tweets an AI image of a young woman wearing Muslim garb. The woman is holding a sign that says "I came here illegally. Should I be deported?" Ivanka News writes: What is your response to this person ?? In the "About this account" tab, it appears the account is based in Nigeria An account called MAGA scope writes: Who, in your view is the great enemy of the United States? Communism, Islam, Democratic Party, or Satan? The account is based in Nigeria. An account called MAGA Nadine writes: You go to work and find this. What would you do? The attached pic is an AI image that shows a microwave. The microwave has a sign that says "For religious reasons, this microwave is now making halal food only." The account is based in Morocco. An account called America First posts an AI image of Tulsi Gabbard. They wrote: How would you rate your trust in Tulsi Gabbard on a scale of 1-10?

No industry is perfect. But the imbalance is hard to miss. One sector must prove its products are safe & effective. The other profits by avoiding that responsibility. If we care about transparency and accountability, scrutiny shouldn’t be one-sided. (Source: For The Greater Glory of Science) #EpiSky

The CDC has put out a new statement saying that childhood vaccines do not necessarily not cause autism. Benjamin Mazer on the risks of this double-negative approach to science:
Do Childhood Vaccines Cause Tornadoes?
It hasn’t been ruled out.

Das férias das "redes", é tão cansativo ver em fóruns de whatsapp (e diga-se na política) as mesmas técnicas do ex-Twitter: seleccionar um exemplo extremo, ainda lhe acrescentar caricatura, fazendo do mesmo representação de todo um sector ou posicionamento político.

Tão primário e ... ainda eficaz.

Yup. I also get emails from people asking me if I published articles and books that I didn’t, but chatGPT is telling them I did.

I am by no means a prominent public intellectual, but my inbox is increasingly filled with messages from people who have been convinced by sycophantic chatbots that they have discovered revolutionary theories that entirely upend our scientific understanding of the universe.

Vou dar a minha opinião sobre isto.
Sou o co-criador duma oficina de várias sessões para crianças do 1° ciclo chamada "Caça-Sons" que trabalha a escuta ativa, pela qual já passaram mais de 2500 crianças ao longo dos anos. Visitei todas as EB1 do Porto. O ruído é um problema muito grave nas escolas.

No, a recent study did not show that COVID-19 vaccines cause cancer.
It found more cancer diagnoses after vaccination, not that vaccines caused cancer.

Headlines can be misleading, read carefully.
