Well, first, you have to believe that the EEG's predictor model is accurate and trustworthy. You have to trust those prescribing it, which, if you don't trust the advice of a doctor with a needle, would you trust them with a brain

Geeze, I though you needed a clean room to do this kind of work. I guess, being a hobby, with less concern for effort, loss of product, or cost versus profit, one might summon the will to try, try again, when confronted with botched fabrica

Fun fact: according to unsubstantiated UNIX lore, " rm " is NOT short-hand for " remove " but rather, it stands for the initials of the developer that wrote the original implementation, Robert Morris. https:/

In this cycle, we see a war of complex resources (produced by logistical wealth) emerge. Those with the most of everything, to produce the greatest fighting flexibility, eventually win. Perhaps pyrrhicly.

I mean, this is still a good thing, since it charts a map of decidedly grey areas, where information may always be ambiguous, and useful information needs to be sussed out carefully. It's better than presumptively assuming that "

So, this might be a long shot, but I might hazard a guess that in hot, humid weather, with stagnant air, the dynamics of where exhaled exhaust goes, changes. In the cold, dry air of winter your breath vents upward, but getting near sunny 90

To frame an assessment of an individual like that, risks throwing the baby out with the bath water. It leaves no room for externalities and circumstance, and assumes the individual had all needs met, perfectly, at all times. Facts are facts
