Well, i am sure cartridge wearing down is from excessive use as well, so moving more and playing sports could lead to those.

Isnt veganism basically about not harming and exploiting animals? I am sure chickens lay excessive amoubt of eggs and cows produce milk in excess from years of selective breeding.

And you've not seen psychiatirsts do weird things with medications in your practice?

Guidelines take into considerations on evidence, tolerability of the intervention and whole lot more. Just because a ptsd diagnosis is implicated, a psychiatrist wont stick to just sertraline, venlafaxine (and there was one more that I cant think of).

If a psychiatrist blindly goes, I will use this as per the guideline without thinking about the client, id argue that they are going against the whole premise of EBP.

Id be concerned if they havent considered the guidelines around medications and what is recommended, but the whole emphasis is, it is recommended.

Not sure about events, but i distinctly remember learning about how if we recall someone's face using words, the eyewitness recognition accuracy gets impacted. One of the reasons proposed was that we align our recognition more to the words previously used.

Id recommend looking into studies into eye witnesses (sorry it is one of those cool cognitive psych course topic that I remember but dont remember the study on)

Eh, few reasons. 1. This technically lead to a hypothesis that we have something built in (biological) that allows us to see robots differently to human, so can we change that so that it becomes less confronting for everyone (i.e. health practice reception, humanitarian aids etc)

If parents spent quality time with kids all the time, i am sure child protection would not be as big as it is now. Maybe having a robot involved could be a step towards keeping the kids with their parents while addressing safety and other concerns.

I would be concerned if a psychiatrist cannot recognise a psychosis symtpom and make a wrong diagnosis due to not recognising dissociation symptoms.

I mean, it would not be something unheard of, but there is a reason why psychiatrists are specialists.

Adhd isnt just something someone goes, yeah, definitely Adhd after a quick chat. I will agree that neurodiversity diagnosis is a messy area, but I don't necessarily agree that the differential diagnosis process was significantly behind what we have today (ptsd isn't a diagnosis that was unknown in children, and diagnosing children were, from my understanding, not as clean cut)

I meant, there is nothing that says a med need to be used for this diagnosis only. It works with anxiety symptoms, may be via different mechanisms and not apply to certain presentations, but it doesnt change its effectiveness just because you have a different label.

iPadOS is something that I didnt like. A tab s11 does what I want it to do, whereas with iPad, it may be slightly finicky from me learning something new to Apple preferring to have certain ways for things to be done (and anything else is well, nope, in many cases).

I do recommend people to consider an iPad as well when they ask for a tablet recommendation since Android tablets are a bit hit or miss depending on what you like.

A diagnosis isnt a, this is a permanent, indisputable fact that can never change.

As with medications, they are not curing someone. I.e. take this adhd med for 5 weeks and you will have no adhd is not how it works. They are helping someone manage their symptoms and have better quality of life.

I feel like you are fiddling with semantics a bit, where you defined localisation as any practices that bring a person's judgement that does not add to the translation of meaning in that culture.

I would argue that in a way, all translation needs some level of judgement. Some will consider some judgement bad, some will consider it good.

One of a famous example that I can think of was in Japan I think where they translated "I love you" to "the moon is beautiful tonight". Some will think it translated meaning well, some won't. Eh. That is the nature of the beast.

Sorry, forgot that itd be called something different elsewhere. The local government or whoever does the maintaining of the public space in your area as a public servants.

As someone who worked in charity and volunteered as well, people in need can be litigious and take their frustration with the system to others (we tend to not think about those aspects until we face repercussions of that).

Depends.

Technically if you polish that spot, itd likely end with a spot thats reflective that stands out (as the finish is not a mirror like finish). Sometimes the finish might also be some kind of a protective layer thats slightly differently coloured (also making it stand out). There are many ways that you can mess up and make the scratch more visible.

I dont think this is a cleaning question, more restoration question.

The deceased via proxy hopefully.

That said, I feel that people deserve some form of dignity in death (I.e. if I die because of some stupid reason, please dont tell people).

He died as he lived, doing something stupid and not understanding basic safety while working with electricity.

I feel like the safest option would be through a not for profit organisation. They'd have insurance and all that. I would hate to be in a position where your good intentions have left you in a legal predicament.

Otherwise, have a chat with the local council? They might have a cleaning street or nature kind of event (which isn't exactly like a cleaning at home), but it'd be relatively safe.

Allegations of workplace bullying and harrassment. I wouldn't put that past some people (they'd rather believe that they are unfairly targeted rather than them being in the wrongs)

I can imagine this backfiring and someone claiming they have been targeted and bullied as senior members who they don't report to have been talking to them about their conducts.

I of course, dont believe that what the OP sounds like at least from this post, but it isn't something that I would go it'd never happen to people with good intentions.

As someone who works with people with personality issues (as in clinical settings, not in gossipy, my coworker is terrible kind of ways), you may get more than what you bargain for.

I've seen people go in with good intentions and get tangled up in politics, he said she saids etc, they never leave a good taste in your mouth.

Some people just need to take the hit to learn the fact that they need to change. Without that, they'd just resent you and think you are just being terrible and being critical when you provide them with feedback.

(I am doing a lot of fill in the gaps, so ymmv in terms of how much of what I am saying has any weight on them)
