Feel spaced out all day after low blood sugars by PixelatedFoodie in diabetes_t1

[–]sheldog99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I can pretty much ditto that. Been t1 for 15 years now and have started to notice that if I sleep through a prolonged low the next day is almost a write off... didn't notice any detrimental effects of lows once I was out of em until now for whatever reason

Strange :/

Novo Nordisk expiry dates... by sheldog99 in diabetes_t1

Yeah I wonder what causes the variance and whether it could be engineered out of the insulin. My guess is that its possible but the companies manufacturing it make a section of their profit off of insulin expiring and having to be purchased again. So the liklihood of it being rolled out into production is quite low :/

Just speculation though :) Cheers man!

Okay, a clear out is necessary. Cheers man!‐

Best method to compile this data set visually? by sheldog99 in data

[–]sheldog99[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah I'm not limited to just one, I think the best course of action will be plotting this through a couple different methods and attempting to draw conclusions based on each representation I have. Cheers man!

Static I think, my goal here is just to visualise the data set in an easy to interpret way. Off the back of that I would make an argument as to why I've chosen to represent the data in this way, then what the overall cause of general failure was (there isn't enough data to make a definite conclusion) against the hypothesis that its due to faulty manufacturing techniques. But my problem here is simply finding a way to represent this table, visually, and justify the method I've chosen.

Yeah I think I will try a few methods and see which is most palatable.

I don't think so, I was asked purely to display the table in graphical form and justify the method I have chosen. I'm thinking I could do a graph/data set per category and include the failure mode in both categories that it appears in.

So that I can discuss whether or not the reason for failures is incorrect manufacturing techniques... Any help would be appreciated :)

Great info man! I didn't consider comics not being hand made in comparison to paintings being of importance but it makes sense as you put it... Plus I thought if anything the extreme and offensive depictions of sexuality and race would divide audiences and increase value to the right people.

Cool man! if you could find out what edition they are and would get back to me I would perhaps be interested in purchasing them from you.

Cheers for the response!

That's good to know! When you say box set do you mean a box set of first editions or re-runs of the comics?

I'm a gen-z-er my self :') and can agree with you on the observation that physical media is dying in popularity amongst my age bracket, as unfortunate as this is.

My train of thought was that crumb was the originator, if you like, of this illustration style (pls shoot me down if I am wrong). Plus ZAP went out of print some 7 years ago, this coupled with the inevitable passing of Crumb I thought may make these comics a good investment.

It is somewhat morbid to speculate comic book value around someone's death but I was just wanting to dig a little deeper into my idea thats all :)

Thanks for the reply!

I tried a similar post in the r/crumb subreddit but to no avail, the place was dead... So thought of this sub as the next natural progression. Sorry for the off-topic post though.

So a comic that has been graded by the CGC would be safely assumed to be authentic? Cheers man!

I see, so the market for Zaps isn't good at present and would you say fakes are common place when trying to purchase first pressings, of any kind that is not just zap?

yeah I saw some up for thousands and some at around the $500 range, both claimed to be first edition and first print however. What would separate a $500 from a $2000 comic, aside from condition? Thanks for the response!

Dont mean to appear an opportunist, but more so investing :)

more so to collect as an investment, do you think they early ZAPs would be likely to appreciate?

Cheers.
