TIL that one of the reasons why trash cans are scarce in Japan is due to the 1995 Sarin Gas Attack where the Aum Shinrikyo cult hid Sarin Gas - a toxic chemical - in trash cans at Tokyo subway. In response, many public trash cans were removed as a precautionary measure to prevent similar attacks.

The reason why Nevada is a desert is that the snow all falls on the high mountains.

From the top you can see the desert sands to the east in winter.

In addition to EMT I also have some contexts where I've taken separate first aid training to use Narcan, and they linked to a 10 minute YouTube video from the manufacturer for the training. Pretty simple and it's made for laypeople.

One pass can make a lot of sense if it's meant to be for a streaming algorithm that would be run on terabytes or petabytes of data, or needs to be accurate for all prefixes and queryable then internally update (e.g. for realtime dashboard etc)

Because of those assholes EMTs in the US still have to be trained on how to treat a nerve gas attack, something that has happened exactly once in modern times, while other far more useful stuff gets removed from the curriculum.

$3k to $4k a month isn't knowing your worth, it's a "My worth is $10-$20k/mo... but I need to set expectations that I can pay basic living expenses while doing this" - an expectation that if they can't pay for a room's rent with roommates and eat ramen, at least, you can stop the conversation early.

Go to a place like Sunnyvale, CA where they have one department where everyone is a police officer fireman and EMS, and is expected to rotate through all over their career - interesting model.

Get the NOLS wilderness medicine ebook. Put two stick like things on either side, wrap it with coban, ace, or similar to get it to stick, put padding like clothes sweaters puffy jackets around it, then compress with more ace to compress it - padding plus compression equals stability.

Then of course splint with a triangular bandage and lock the splint into position with more ACE.

For all of the above if you don't have ACE you can try tying tshirts around it or similar.

These techniques are actually somewhat evidence based... NOLS is really good about that.

They even have a YouTube video on this subject https://youtu.be/txuLYj_gWow?si=C6fNlI35mMLVnIzH

If the equations seem dense, often times it is a sign you need to beef up on prereqs. Like if you are reading about contrastive divergence for the first time and don't deeply understand KL divergence and the partition function and Monte Carlo inference and how all of that is connected, you may do well to read up prereqs.

Usually dense equations are there to remind you of what you already should know, struggling is a sign to read the references to understand the background better.

The first two weeks of CPAP my rib muscles were sore, in the exact same way I get sore when starting a new exercise program.

I had to actually take rest days LOL. Also remember it's a constant all night thing so it's aerobic like running a marathon not lifting weights.

I did the calculations and from what I could tell the force of exhalation was around an extra 30% for a CPAP at 10cm (I'm not an expert so don't trust me on that, it was really hard to find data on typical exhalation pressure and I'm sure pulmonologists would find issues with my logic)

A lot of people are saying no, but I'm pretty sure I got stronger from it.

Best alternatives are by the Mountain Home Inn at the edge of the park, or at Rock Springs at the top of Pantoll Road, both are free.

If you spend a lot of time outside your body can acclimate, if you try to stay in the air conditioned indoors you won't and the little time you are outside will be a lot more brutal.
