  2. A quotation from Madeleine L'Engle

    The writer whose words are going to be read by children has a heavy responsibility. And yet, despite the undeniable fact that the children’s minds are tender, they are also far more tough than many people realize, and they have an openness and an ability to grapple with difficult concepts which many adults have lost. Writers of children’s literature are set apart by their willingness to confront difficult questions.

    Madeleine L'Engle (1918-2007) American writer
    Speech (1983-11-16), “Dare To Be Creative,” Lecture, Library of Congress, Washington, DC

  4. Day 8: Still on the topic of memory - a lot of people want to have a “better” memory. Improving memory is also an active research topic, as it has tremendous potential in disorders that affect memory, such as dementia. One method that is currently being studied is transcranial stimulation - basically applying small currents to the scalp. The results are still somewhat mixed and a lot more research is necessary to optimize such protocols, but that hasn’t stopped the development of commercial applications that claim unproven benefits. Yet here’s the kicker: when tested in the lab, some of these commercial devices actually had negative effects, leading to worse memory performance.

  6. Compex EMS: Eine perfekte Trainingsergänzung?

  7. Had this article shared with me today: fortune.com/2025/02/11/ai-impa

    I went through an array of #emotions. At first, I found it #awkward and #discomforting. I made jokes:

    Wait, you mean people aren't thinking #critically and growing #cognitively because the #digitalization of the world is doing it for them....and it's making them (gasps) #dumber!!?? #AI is making it worse?? Is this #Idiocracy? 👀 😞 Am I being #punked right now!? Where's Ashton and the cameras! 📹

    Then, I had a deep #selfrealization:

    Jokes aside - This is a #sensitive topic for me. I talk about it in my closest circle too often. Unfortunately, I have a front seat to the steep cognitive #decline of some close #friends and #family members for years now, and it makes me sad - not because of disease or "old age", simply because of too much screen time and no new cognitive #stimulation. I see too many people purposefully avoiding nearly anything #cerebral, if they even approach them at all. I have many days where I wish the #Internet didn't exist - for a multitude of reasons, but this is a big one. I'm not trying to be "old fashioned" or #sarcastic, I'm just #disappointed in how we #humanz have grown to depend on #technology as a #crutch, rather than using it as the #tool it was invented to be. As the article eludes to, these technologies are supposed to #complement human #evolution, not #supplement it.

  10. `The 1st recorded use of electrical #stimulation for #pain relief goes back to 46 AD, when Scribonius Largus used torpedo fish (electric ray) for relieving #headaches`

    I like caressing the #frenulum across the #circumcision line with the side of my thumb.

    I call it #thumbing the #penis and it's one way I employ light #stimulation while #edging

  12. Electrical #stimulation of the human #brain can influence risky choice -- ventral Medial PreFrontal Cortex (#MPFC) stimulation increases risky choice, but Anterior Insula (#AIns) stimulation decreases it (#NeuroEconomics , #affectiveneuroscience , #preprint):

  13. Somehow, we managed to dial into and collaborate via conference calls without this challenge.

    Maybe there are other reasons for the under-stimulation?

  14. Researchers at the UK #Dementia Research Institute have developed a new form of deep #brain #stimulation that does not require surgery and could provide an alternative treatment option for brain diseases such as #Alzheimer’s.

  15. Q for folks who may have #knowledge of or #experience with this new #device for #ADHD #kids and perhaps #adults monarch-etns.com/ Monarch external #trigeminal #nerve #stimulation #eTNS device connects to a disposable patch placed on your child’s forehead at bedtime. Once turned on, the device sends low stimulating pulses to the trigeminal nerve through the patch overnight. Thank you.
