This will probably have zero traction, yet: 1.ADHD is often misdiagnosed in women 2. The drop in estrogen around perimenopause/menopause worsens symptoms. It leads to late-life diagnoses as women's coping strategies no longer work

We are delaying as long as possible. Right now it is ‘let’s evaluate when you are 13’. Many peers have a locked down apple watch.

Do you have text/other sources suggestions for this? I agree with you, would like to learn more.

TL; DR: the perception of “ghost work” can also appear when employees work in functions where failure doesn’t immediately break the company. The work may have value, but the contributions support longer tails, look not needed. ———- I used t

Unclear to me is whether steviosides are in the NSS category. WHO spells out xylitol and others in same category are not.

Some fertility problems go unnoticed for a decade. I suggest to my younger (25-29) female friends to have their egg reserve estimated, even if they at that point are not thinking about ever having children. This is because the original issu

Having been up since 3 AM with a child, I can say the cost-benefit fluctuates wildly. Would love OP to indicate if they do not know the benefits and want to know, or if they know the benefits and want others to know as well. Some old reason

I'll leave aside "the transaction was fraudulently approved" for the moment. I can see a possible, if naïve, thought process being "It's a tiny bank, hedge and crypto do absurd types of silly transactions, let'

I'd say it is less about small tests and more about the cases and questions one is trying to cover during the usability tests.

Ergonomics may seem not a big deal in that list of improvements, however it can make or break surgery technique and a surgeon's career. Many professions that rely on manual dexterity lose practitioners due to long-term inappropriate er

Do you plan to go the paramedic route? I let my EMT lapse once I moved to CA; the scope of work was more restricted than East Coast, where many states rely on volunteer fire and EMT.

It does make risk analysis more interesting. It surprises me how people will think only of the positive or accidental case, leaving adversarial ones off the table (and risk mitigation)

Lapsed EMT here--this is 100% true.

The result when you are 'irreplaceable' is that there is no other place to be in the org--you cannot move on to other roles as easily.

I do not work for Spotify. The following are a bunch of educated guesses based on how 'old standard concepts' drift towards 'new concepts'. 1. They test their UI with their target users (assumes they have a handle on who

And then there are UI/UX constraints. The Venn diagram of "knows how to use SMS", "knows how to use 2FA" and "knows how to use yubikey etc" does not have a lot of overlap outside a tech audience.

I recall a Car Talk episode many years ago where the discussion about BMW’s big knob for multiple functions was filled with negative statements. Tactile feedback and navigation were issues.
