  1. #TIL that the "My #car must be bigger (than yours)" #syndrome, and, in the same sense, cars constantly getting bigger, has a name:
    #Carspreading

  2. Un #foyer de #syndrome respiratoire aigu s’est déclaré à bord du #bateau de #croisière MV Hondius, deux personnes sont mortes et une troisième est en soins intensifs lemonde.fr/planete/article/202

    Le troisième passager malade, un ressortissant britannique de 69 ans, a été évacué vers un hôpital de Johannesburg. Il a été testé positif à un #hantavirus.

  3. Don't feel rested after #sleeping at night? In menopause, my sleep got worse. I found out that I have #restless #legs #syndrome#RLS, or #Willis-Ekbom disease). It's a neurological condition that can run in families. It might be caused by an imbalance of the brain chemical dopamine. (1/2)

  4. Unique cognition and behavior profiles explored

    A new study comparing children with autism, ADHD, and both conditions reveals that comorbidity may alter how cognitive…

  5. Today I read a comment on X from a guy saying he has visual snow syndrome and that his whole family has it too. Scrolling through the replies, I realized it’s way more common than I thought… man, what an awful condition.
    So, when they do a 3D render, even if they use denoising it doesn’t make any difference? #visual #snow #syndrome #visualsnowsyndrome

  6. My #Incredibles #WMG:

    #Syndrome was not, in fact, the bitter villain we see. He wanted #superheroes to be superheroes. So, in a world that outlawed that, he manufactured a reason that the world MUST have its superheroes again. He became that reason, a supervillain that could only be stopped by the "illegal" superheroes.

  7. TIL about Kessler Syndrome compliments of NASA

    Quote 0:
    Currently, there are over 27,000 tracked pieces of debris, each larger than 10 cm, and millions of smaller, untraceable fragments orbiting Earth. Even a tiny fragment, moving at speeds of up to 28,000 kilometers per hour, can cause catastrophic damage.

    Quote I:
    Sudden Alarm?

    In recent years, space activity has surged dramatically. Companies like SpaceX are launching thousands of satellites for mega-constellations aimed at providing global internet access. While these projects are revolutionary, they also contribute significantly to space congestion. According to Dr. Vishnu Reddy, a planetary scientist at the University of Arizona, “The number of objects in space launched in the last four years has increased exponentially.”

    In 2009, a wake-up call came in the form of a collision between the defunct Kosmos-2251 satellite and the operational Iridium-33 communications satellite. The impact created thousands of debris pieces, many of which are still orbiting Earth today.

    Similar incidents could set off the cascade envisioned by Kessler, leading to a debris belt so dense that space exploration would become nearly impossible.

  8. #KnowledgeBit: The #Kessler #Syndrome, also known as the Kessler Effect or collisional cascading, is a scenario proposed by NASA scientist Donald J. Kessler in 1978.

    It describes a self-sustaining cascade of collisions in low Earth orbit (LEO) caused by the increasing density of space debris.

  12. I often get imposter syndrome, especially at work. These days when it happens, I simply remind myself that Donald Trump is president of a country, and then it gets better.

    Forbidden West is a worthy sequel to Zero Dawn. But it
    is unmistakably a sequel, and one into which the developers shoveled every damn thing they could think of, in a failure of understanding that shoveling the game full of shit most players will probably never use doesn't make it a better game. All of that clutter and complexity does not improve the game, it detracts from it. I have thirty or forty unspent level-up skill points because there isn't a damn thing that, as far as I can tell, is worth spending them on except YET MORE special attacks that I have to memorize timed multi-control sequences to activate — and also need to remember to avoid accidentally hitting one of those sequences when I don't want to use them. I can't begin to count the number of times I've accidentally "dodged" sideways off a cliff or tower that I just spent fifteen minutes finding a way up.



    In computer science and engineering, there is something called "
    #second #system #syndrome." It comes when you built a system that works, and now you've been told to build a new version of it, and make it better ... and so you shovel every damn feature you can think of into it. And to your shock, the result is NOT a lean, mean, upgraded machine. It's a bloated, confusing mess that's less usable than the original system.


    Horizon: Forbidden West has second-system syndrome. It has it
    bad.

  15. CW: Overload

    I am convinced that every human #brain, even the most #neurotypical one, can get #overloaded by too many #details and go into ruthless filtering and #simplification mode. And that is what #society is experiencing right now. With the availability of unprecedented amounts of #information to everybody comes the urge to also process *everything* -> collective #overload #syndrome -> a feast for #populism, #advertising, #propaganda, #scam...

  16. I'm guessing that Bell Labs was the only place totally immune to Not Invented Here Syndrome, because everything really was invented there. [1]

    Thoughts?

    [1] To a first approximation, anyway.
