Incidentally that time frame coincides with me moving to macOS, and people ain’t too happy with Windows 11 after they now? #Anecdotal

Yes, #trans #women can #breastfeed too. Here’s why it’s #safe, #healthy and #good for both #mum and #baby.
Most people assume that only #cisgender #women can #breastfeed, but a combination of #medical #research and #anecdotal #evidence prove this is not the case.

Nothing brings out the #anecdotal evidence like a post on #climate change. “I felt a breeze today, so it couldn’t have been the hottest day on record ever.” Gtfo. Can we PLEASE start teaching the difference between personal experience and empirical data?

“More like a village than a city, Mastodon has less cruelty and bad-faith debates than Twitter, in my experience Could it be a social media platform to trust?
IT HAS been nearly six months since Twitter’s transformation from iconic social media platform into the eccentric personal project of tech billionaire Elon Musk. [The author] abandoned [their] account last November, save for work announcements – [they] didn’t want to stick around and watch the place fall apart. Still, [they] craved a digital hangout where [they] could connect with friends and colleagues, test out [their] half-baked ideas and look at cute pictures of capybaras…”

#Confabulation, false memory, or less often pseudomemory is a term in cognitive #psychology defined as a recollection of something that never happened. This can range from something as minor as misremembering an item on a list to fabricating an entire detailed, vivid #memory out of whole cloth. While it is intuitively obvious that memory is fallible, a great deal of #pseudoscience and #woo is built on the idea that all or at least some memory is infallible, as in much #anecdotal evidence. This assertion is unsupported by current evidence. Memory, in essence, is not akin to a tape recorder but a process that reconstructs past experience. This makes it highly susceptible to errors.
The foundational works relating to confabulation in #memory were produced by Frederic Bartlett & Elizabeth Loftus.

Rejuvenating properties of light, controlling #MitochondrialDysfunction. Note to myself really, but I’m going to be extending my mornings’ #FarRed #LED eye bath as much as I can. If you’ve read this far you might be interested to know my eyes’ prescription improved significantly, after 6m of 5-15mins morning sessions, through closed eyelids, of ~25W 670nm point source (LED cob) @ 20cm distance. #Anecdotal #neuroscience #RetinalHealth https://www.nature.com/articles/s43587-022-00340-7

@mindaslab there's a lot of literature in #management on preferring "how" over "why" questions. I just extended it even further into "what" questions, which is the typical answer to a "how" question in any case.
BTW, just curious, what made you assume that it's all made up in my mind?
Could it be that you prefer #empirical over #anecdotal?

@42runs I have run some marathons and I have Garmin HR data going back a few years if you're interested. My resting HR has got lower but I haven't really looked at how it behaved specifically after marathons. #anecdotal #runningdata #garmin
