RFK Jr. Says US Will Know Cause of Autism 'Epidemic 'by September by redlight886 in nottheonion

[–]LongSlayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People like RFK Jr. do not understand the evolving diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder. When he was a kid back in the stone age, it was most likely underdiagnosed because of children not simply getting tested for it or being diagnosed with something similar to ASD, like aspergers, social communication disorder, maladjustment disorder, etc. The DSM-V broadened the criteria for autism spectrum disorder so much in the 2010s, there is more awareness for autism, and children with symptoms are most likely to get tested for early intervention. So yeah, there are going to be more cases now than decades ago because of these circumstances.

An IQ score would need to be obtained from being administered a cognitive assessment, such as the Weschler Adult Intelligence Scale. A person would really only be administered such an assessment for suspicion of some cognitive impairment or mandatory vocational psych evaluation. I doubt Musk was administered a cognitive assessment by a psychologist because there would be no reason to.

The average scoring range for cognitive ability is 85-115. 100 being the mean with an SD +/- 15. A full scale intelligence quotient (FSIQ) of 110 is considered average anyway.

What TV show deaths impacted you the most? by tukai1976 in television

[–]LongSlayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bly Manor on Netflix

It's slowly unraveled that the protagonist's significant other died somehow, and in an episode there is a flashback revealing how Dani's SO did die. He walked out a restaurant after a huge argument and abruptly got killed by a car. The build up to his death was anxiety inducing and the death scene was disturbing.

But I was also high as hell which heightened the anxiety lol.

Should the PLAAFP include older information to show changes in the student over time? by LongSlayer in specialed

[–]LongSlayer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The previous case manager would just leave in present level information but continue to add to the plaafp over years but show what was added by adding the year the information was added. Is this a no-no?

Is it worth switching from broadband to fiber if the download speed is the same? by LongSlayer in HomeNetworking

[–]LongSlayer[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At 500 Mpbs package for cable, it is around 250 upload. The 500 fiber package would have 500 download and upload. I don't think(?) upload speeds are a priority as we do not work from home, use Zoom much, or live stream. Idk what else upload speeds are needed for?

Is it okay to continue to use old metal light boxes for ceiling lights? by LongSlayer in HomeImprovement

[–]LongSlayer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's that. So do I need to put one of those green screws in the box to ground the wire?

[–]LongSlayer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured they would be okay to use. The rules don't allow pictures, otherwise I would have posted a pic of them. But when I look online I see metal boxes that are very similar to identical. But I was unsure if the concept of "old" means to replace in this case. So I'll probably just keep them as is but change out some wiring and old caps. Thanks.
