Dozens of Australians diagnosed with rare tattoo-related vision loss. So there's a thing called tattoo-associated uveitis. Since it's just recently been recognized, there's not much known about it. Is it related to a specific tattoo ink? What is the pathophysiology? Something else to worry about now besides getting hepatitis and HIV.

The definition of "normal" levels of vitamin D has changed. It used to be that you just had to have a level higher than 30 ng/mL. Now it's 75 ng/mL. Holy crap!

You know, I'm getting tired of reading about Dario Amodei sounding the alarm about how AI will destroy humanity, while he continues to run Anthropic, puts out ever more powerful models, and has no intention of shutting down.

Have you seen the Brad Pitt vs Tom Cruise AI-generated video? Disney has, and they have issued a cease-and-desist order against ByteDance over SeeDance 2.0. Toothpaste is out of the tube, Disney. It's pointless to order that it be put back in. I'm looking forward to true creatives making better movies with these tools.

Radiant, a manufacturer of portable nuclear microreactors, has received approval from the US Department of Energy (DOE) for its DOE Authorization Request for Kaleidos (DARK). This will be revolutionary.

High-Potency Marijuana Is Lobotomizing The American People. This is the last thing America needs right now. Something that will make young Americans stupid. China is not subscribing to this insanity. People are sounding the alarms, but sadly lawmakers won't listen.

Dr. Oz pushes AI avatars as a fix for rural health care. Yeah, he's getting pushback. But people aren't aware that there is a critical shortage of medical providers, and this may be better than nothing.

Men lose their Y chromosome as they get older. It was thought to be a benign development, but now there's evidence that it maybe linked to problems, such as kidney disease, cancer, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases.

Business owners and startups have to figure out how to be more visible in a world with Google searches suck, and ChatGPT only selects one "best product" and it's not them. All the old tricks don't work in the AI era.

Make this make sense.
The teachers' union assumes that somehow money will be found. Hell with the budget. Full steam ahead!

Oregon Health Plan is not going to lose it's "prioritized list" for state-sponsored care rationing. They're just going to fudge it enough to help it comply with federal Medicaid requirements, and hope no one notices that's it operates using the same lousy principle. The state determines what the priorities are. Doctors (and patients) must comply with what politicians' decide. DemocratCare.

Oregon Democrats have decided to only partially decouple from the new federal income tax rates. I'm sure they wanted to decouple more, but getting rid of Trump's no tax on tips and overtime would be a bit too unpopular among the proletariat.

Hillsboro is going to turn into datacenter hell.
When it comes to tech, it seems that the money stays in California, while Oregon gets jobs like circuit board assembly, chip manufacturing and now datacenter operations, which might attract a few engineers who generally aren't well-paid, as well as lower pay scale support staff. Yeah, it's technology and all that, but Hillsboro and North Plains aren't becoming Bellevue, Redmond or Issaquah, that's for sure. Why spoil the landscape of Woodside, Los Altos, Palo Alto, Mountain View or Atherton. Send that crap up to Oregon. They don't care, amiright?
