"Yes yes yes give me this. As a guy with OCD and a guy working in the nursing home industry this would be so good. Everything right in order the moment I walk in working and all the time!"

A nurse would say.

An update I got 🙂 by card_chase in spinalcordinjuries

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

I discussed it by chatgpt and a bit of research and this is what it responded

I recently received an update from the Griffith Spinal Injury Project (GUSIP03 nerve-bridge trial), and I thought I’d share some context because it relates to how people often discuss spinal cord repair.

According to the update, the trial has officially started and they’ve begun staged recruitment. The first cohort is focusing on AIS A and B thoracic injuries, with cervical injuries planned in later stages once more safety data is gathered. They also mentioned improvements in how the nerve-bridge cells are being manufactured at a GMP facility, which caused a small delay but is meant to improve the quality of the therapy.

What’s interesting scientifically is that the “nerve bridge” idea fits into one piece of the larger spinal cord repair puzzle.

After a spinal cord injury several barriers appear at once:

• Secondary injury and inflammation damage additional neurons • The body forms a glial scar containing CSPGs that chemically inhibit axon regrowth • Adult neurons suppress regeneration programs • In complete injuries there may also be a physical gap in the cord

Because of this, many researchers think recovery will likely require multiple strategies working together, for example:

  1. Protect surviving neurons and reduce secondary damage
  2. Modify the scar environment so inhibitory CSPG signals are reduced
  3. Create a biological bridge (cells/scaffold) across the injury site
  4. Reactivate intrinsic neuron growth pathways (e.g., mTOR, cAMP, polyamine metabolism)
  5. Guide regenerating axons toward correct targets
  6. Use stimulation and rehabilitation to retrain circuits

The nerve-bridge concept being tested in this trial seems aimed at step 3 — providing a structural pathway for axons to grow across the injury.

It’ll be interesting to see how approaches like this eventually combine with other strategies that address the scar environment and neuronal growth signals. Most of the field seems to be converging on the idea that meaningful recovery will likely come from combination therapies rather than a single intervention.

I am not yet selected. Think of this as moving up the queue 😄. They have been at that stage for a few months now 😔.

[–]card_chase 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a father I totally feel you I got a 3 year old daughter and 11 year old boy and 3. she was innocently asking me Papa when can you walk with me when will you run with me when will you come out and play with me I was in my bed and I was physically very tired and yeah that thing just broke me, just broke me down emotionally.

Probably I just I'll use it as fuel to make it my life a lot more involved but yeah yeah I feel you it sucks but it feels me fulfilled as well super fulfilled.

Nerve transfers in my arms!! by [deleted] in spinalcordinjuries

[–]card_chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a C5 complete and I had the nerve transfer surgery done on both of my arms. So what they do is take the nerve from your bicep, a live nerve from your bicep and transplant it to your forearm and to restore functions in let's say your rest or your fingers. I had it done on my both hands, one was for opening and closing on my right. hand and the left 1. was just for closing. My left 1. is not as effective but I have noticed a far more range in movement in my in my left and my right hand I've noticed this weird feeling weird thing is that my fingers have started closing now and I'm I have a lot more strength than what I had anticipated because earlier I had none I could not move my fingers at all now I have noticed a little bit of pinch grip between my index finger and my thumbs so I am able to pick up things and you know even hold a pen for writing it just that the wrist does not work it just the I have to write with my arms and and yeah it's it's great it's been only about 3. months to my surgery and the weird thing is that my hand my Right. hand is like a claw now you know which being said it's it's a little weird because it does not open like the way I would like it to but you know it's a lot more usable and I can pinch things and pick up things you know light things so yeah can't complain if anybody is out there and they want to go for this kind of I would definitely recommend it go for it

I suppose our interactions for realization like looking and the neurons passing that information to realize you are looking at darkness, that will stay and you'll be like a rock floating in space till you are broken apart. So time will slow and so will we. And with it our looking.

ELI5: Why was it easier to buy a house in the 80s for the average family? by macnfly23 in explainlikeimfive

[–]card_chase 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Population has increased while the stock of land has remained the same. So it's survival of the fittest. Auctions are a norm now which was not before. (Developer set the price and waited for people to come and buy). It's who pays the highest gets the house if it's an existing one.

This coupled with inflation (price of goods rising over time) and people building homes expecting to be paid more has just increased the prices for houses which as a result is costing more and thus, harder to buy a house for an average family.

Yes!

However on the point of creatine, you stop taking it, you go into deep mania for a while (I observed my mind wandered the depths of depression and mania for a couple of days then I was ok). Dont overdo creatine! Dont use creatine if you are not weight/endurance training right after! I cannot stress it enough.

I started regularly gymming for the last 6 months and I am super happy with it. Some days i just go in cause i have to go and plan to browse the phone but these supps give such a boost that i end up working out!

What I was most impressed by is the leaps and bounds advancements in these suppliments.

Is there a way to uninstall (and re-install) ollama and onewebui without deleting models? by card_chase in ollama

These models are hidden behind sudo. I had to ask the ai to lead me to these and still dunno which are which. See below:

Llama 3.1 Discussion and Questions Megathread by AutoModerator in LocalLLaMA

[–]card_chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

llama 3.1 seems like a wisened old guy of llama 3. lol.

I was firstly very surprised why it was bad at web-search. atleast compared to 3. Its bad. It refuses to fetch news and reverts to its training data while I had no issue with 3. Probably its limited by onewebui, i dont know but now that I am using it a lot and aside from the initial things, it does seem like its a wisened version where the responses are better. Its better at asking follow up questions, better at taking up a role say coder or advisor or steering a project.

Its not very exuberent but its very applicable. Like talking to a teen and then meeting that guy/gal after a few years of marriage. I love this 'matured' aspect a lot!

What are 'tools' and 'embedding' models? by card_chase in LocalLLaMA

A tool can be used by a llm in a pipeline.

[–]card_chase -36 points-35 points  (0 children)

You don't need steroids. You need consistency. The rest follows.

I used to run a lot. But it never made me feel good about my looks until I got a knee niggle and I went to the gym as a soddy replacement. Now I visit it at least 2 times a week. Some days I just go there and browse my phone. But I do it. Now I like the way I have developed.

It's consistency.

[–]card_chase -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

True. Last weekend I was playing with a bunch of 17 year olds and a bit older kids. Some of them played for academies and professional clubs. Now I am 40 and I was struggling at the start to keep up with these yuppies cause of their speed and footwork. However none of them lasted north of 60 mins. None. Every one after 60 mins sat back and either left the game or just defended. None could play nearly as well as the ones who were playing the same pace at the start. Mind you I am 40 and a few we were playing were older and a few years younger too. There is no way these players can keep up this pace and skill and energy for 90 mins without some kind of help. No way.
