For better or worse, hiring is proxies all the way down

[gabriel @gabriel1]

university serves an interesting purpose

because people don't know how to show that they are useful, and people hiring have no idea what to ask to understand if the person is useful, every company devolves towards screening for iq and hard work. and university is an ok proxy

age of miracles

[Derek Thompson @DKThomp]

This has quietly been a miracle month in medicine.

In the last 5 weeks we’ve got news on:

- retatrutide, the triple agonist GLP-1 from Lilly, basically melting fat and body-wide inflammation at record levels
- RevMed’s new pancreatic cancer drug showing unprecedented abilities to extend life
- small trial of a one-and-done PCSK9 gene editing therapy for slashing LDL cholesterol
- Mayo’s AI-assisted radiology showing vastly improved cancer detection
- this new therapy for metastatic solid tumors

This stuff is at varying levels of evidence. Retatrutide is ~100% on its way, other stuff needs more clinical trial data. But put it together and we’re maybe on the verge of majorly reducing the mortality of heart disease and cancer, the two leading causes of death in America.

It's not a quilt, but here's my patriotic contribution!
When finished, it will have 250 stars, one for every year since 1776. 🙂

I finished my American flag quilt top yesterday and it looks SO CUTE! I need to decide on a border fabric (it's not America without a border, am I right?) and backing fabric still, but I'm thinking I'm going to go the denim route.
