The Exploratorium is a world class hands-on science museum in San Francisco. The color science exhibits are truly flawless. There have always been gender fumes present in the building (there is a super weird exhibit that mentions Chelsea Manning), but nothing terribly overt.
I went there today to see this stuff. I told the kids at the front desk that this is insane and harmful to kids.
Apparently sex *is* binary, but gender uses the same categories...and sex isn't always determined by your chromosomes (it is, always no matter who you are).

>Coe said the decision was made to ensure “the integrity of women’s sport” with World Athletics asserting:
>>The SRY gene is a reliable proxy for determining biological sex.
>I argue the science does not support this overly simplistic assertion.
What percentage of male humans are SRY+ve and SRY-ve? What percentage of female humans are SRY+ve or SRY-ve?
> In simplest terms, the testes then produce hormones including testosterone, leading to male development.
Are zygotes sexed?
>We know making testes or ovaries requires a complex network of many interacting genes and proteins.
>Some genes promote testis development while others promote ovary development.
>Other genes either suppress ovary formation or antagonise testis formation.
>Even once ovaries or testes are fully formed, we require other genes to maintain them. These genes don’t always function as expected, affecting the development of these organs.
Yes, all these claims are obviously true.
>If there is a change in the SRY gene so it does not function as usual, then a person can fail to develop testes and be biologically female. Yet they carry XY chromosomes and under the World Athletics tests they would be excluded from competition.
Correct. What percentage of humans have these SRY variants and develop female phenotypes? What percentage of those are high level athletes?
>Other XY individuals may have a functioning SRY gene but are female – with breasts and female genitalia, for example – but have internal testes.
Wait. What? You said 'female' and 'testes'.
>At the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, eight of 3,387 women athletes had positive test results for a Y chromosome. Of these, seven were resistant to testosterone.
The author knows this isn't the same population with SRY variants he just mentioned.
He means males with androgen insensitivity, some of whom were deceived by doctors and parents.
>World Athletics asserts the SRY gene is a reliable proxy for determining biological sex. But biological sex is much more complex, with chromosomal, gonadal (testis/ovary), hormonal and secondary sex characteristics all playing a role.
It's almost like you want to say "sex associated characteristics" but then the jig would be up, wouldn't it?
>This may be easy enough in wealthy countries, but what is going to happen in poorer nations without these facilities?
You can send samples to rich countries where the testing can be done quite cheaply.
>It is worth noting these tests are sensitive. If a male lab technician conducts the test he can inadvertently contaminate it with a single skin cell and produce a false positive SRY result.
What clinical test doesn't have to be performed carefully?
>Nor does World Athletics recognise the impacts a positive test result would have on a person, which can be more profound than exclusion from sport alone.
Clinical tests have outcomes? You don't say. What percentage of high level male athletes do you suspect are unaware that they are actually male?
>Given all the problems outlined above, the SRY gene should not be used to exclude women athletes from competition.
Is self identification more reliable? What test should be used?

Did anyone read this report "Systematic Medical Evidence Review of Hormonal Transgender Treatment Report" for Utah's state legislature? It's a big systematic review for "gender affirming care" and the authors come to the conclusion that GAC is good (in contrast to the state legislature which had banned it).
https://le.utah.gov/AgencyRP/reportingDetail.jsp?rid=636
I know GAC is not good, but took a look at the report to try and see how the authors came to this conclusion. It's very long (1000+ pages, mostly paper summaries), and I don't want to invest that much time in looking for all the flies in the ointment...but a number of flies pop up immediately:
The report was late by 6 months. That's...odd....The report was commissioned by contract, people cut off their right hand to ensure reports are not handed in a minute late past a contract deadline. There are 5 instances in the report of the authors describing their "abbreviated timeline" as an excuse for any potential quality issues with their work. This is very weird.
>The conventional wisdom among non-experts has long been that there are limited data on the use of GAHT in pediatric patients with GD. However, results from our exhaustive literature searches have led us to the opposite conclusion.
What? Though many serious people knew for a fact that the evidence has always been very poor, the Cass report that cemented this fact was received quite controversially by "non-experts".
>We were not contracted to include a synthesis of the evidence that we found: only to assess [risks of bias] and provide evidence tables summarizing safety and efficacy findings. However, after having spent many months searching for, reading, and evaluating the available literature, it was impossible for us to avoid drawing some high-level conclusions.
...it is very odd for a report to discuss something that wasn't contracted for. Government contracting is usually quite strict, this type of writing indicates shenanigans.
They don't cite Cass (at least I can't find "Cass" in there). I do not know how a credible systematic review written after Cass wouldn't compare and contrast their findings to Cass.
I am not experienced in writing systematic reviews but I would presume this report should show some glaring deficiencies.

Mia speaks well but I think misses the key point about the fetish wear (I can't blame her, that man is being creepily obtuse). The harm from the fetish gear is directed to *young boys*.
Why should boys not be deliberately exposed to things like giant fake boobs?
Boys are very sensitive to sexualized imagery of (adult) females, long before puberty. Most boys end up be disgusted by the bodies of other men. Sticking giant boobs on a man is abusive betrayal of boys. You are turning on all sort of thoughts that they are associating with a man with a synthetic stimulus with the intent to do so. There is no good reason to do this to a boy other than to betray him.
I don't think it help girls in anyway either, and that they should not be confused...I somehow don't think it does the same damage. Maybe the ladies on fedi can tell me otherwise.

I was recently trying to debunk the often heard debt fear-mongering that comes from politicians. This must be Graeber's most succinct summary of the matter:
https://davidgraeber.org/articles/david-graeber-studied-5000-years-of-debt/
It also made me think a bit more about bitcoin. I don't get bitcoin most of the time. I don't understand why enthusiasts believe that apolitical money (that is premised on the capital investments that go into energy, silicon fabrication etc. etc. that is controlled by political money) will ever really be allowed. How the US has slowly allowed greater legitimacy to bitcoin despite it largely being used for human trafficking and drugs (and that according to the long time CEO of America's biggest bank).
Graber's summary gave me an idea: our money system is complicated (at least in part) because it makes it difficult for normies to understand. The basic mechanism behind bitcoin is actually fairly easy to understand. Perhaps it is its understandability that is taken as a serious threat...and thus, allowed to live to a certain degree.

I don't see how that is true. There is no reason exclude the idea that the development path to lesbianism may (in some or all women) pass through a (perhaps short not memorable) bipotential critical point before an irreversible step. We aren't very good at telling which children grow up to be bisexual or homosexual adults, we largely don't know how this development happens. Testimony from those adults is important, but doesn't give us a clear picture and subject to well known limitations.
Attraction and conscious choice are very very difficult probe and investigate in adults (forget about children) and much is unknown. We know sexual orientation is stable in adults, but it would be wrong to dismiss the testimony of adults that claim to have chosen their sexual orientation because we have such a fuzzy picture as to how this (and many other) behavior emerges.

But there are lesbian women and gay men out there who insist it was their choice and have written lucid articles about. It's seems to be impossible to falsify that, the way it is impossible to falsify any internal mental state of anyone about anything.

there sure is a lot of weird male aggression associated with sports though...much of it seemingly associated with alcohol.

2025-05-09 19:24:43 UTC

A social movement I could get behind: do not watch sports. At all. Do exercise/sports and do not watch them. Not in stadiums not on TV or anything.
Watching sports comes with all sorts of mindlessness that is bad for you. It's prepackaged with advertising for products you don't need. Alcohol is a big part of sports watching. There is a strange sort of oppressive conformity with the marked up branded sports team clothing. T shirt printing companies seem to work very hard at screening what you can print, probably mostly because of sports. Kinda makes you feel bad because it's hard to compare yourself to a few people that have physical attributes that are so unimaginably greater than yours they may as well be a different species.
Don't watch sports. They are bad for you.

I fear I am getting into the flavor extract game. I made this "kue lapis" (layered mochi) with alternating flavors of saffron, pandan (powdered form) and kaffir lime. I have the texture down with just enough tapioca flour to stiffen the glutinous rice.
My flavors could not punch though (though I used what, in other contexts, would too much). It feels like they need to be 3X-6X more, I think I can only get there with concentrate/extracts.
I do want to try making a layer with a strawberry reduction, but if this really worked, I would have guessed someone would have made it by now.

Progress pride flags are common in SF... I don't know the right word to describe how they are fucking everywhere in Toronto. It's like a perverse find "find the flag!" children's activity page but the flag is everywhere at all scales.

The H1B maga civil war and BS jobs.
Companies in America prefer an apparently competent person from another country vs. a graduate from a domestic 3rd tier computer science program. The reality is that both of these people will probably be doing a bullshit job. The person from the other country is, probably, more competent (has to justify doing the job to the government) and will have a harder time going to a competitor/another job in the US.
There would be a more interesting discussion to have if we started with the premise that most of these jobs are bullshit jobs and I think would reveal a lot of the underlying interests driving the "debate".

It's like a layer of obfuscation around immigration has been torn off in the public debate across the world. You can really see it in Canada which used to really love lots of fluffy happy language around it.
I think there are defensible positions against H1-Bs. It's not slavery, people are free to not apply for them, but it does raise questions for the average person as to how all this works. I.e., why do we have these programs in the most powerful nation on earth with the best schools that should just be able to make more, say, software engineers the way India can?
I think the reality is the knobs that control the number of software engineers being produced in India vs. the number in America and the number that come here is a decision made by just a few people and is largely obfuscated to the public. It seems like some complicated game between global powers..."fine, you make more software engineers, we'll let some come here so you can buy more of our stuff...don't descend into war because that will cost me as well, I also don't want any crazy terrorist acts...I'm going to keep putting my investments into natural gas fracking and ensuring my companies have a foot print in your country..."

How is the medication feeling these days? Or is it, hopefully, just background noise?

Ok fine, one more.

Now computer graphics seemed to have completely maxed out farther than anyone could have previously imagined, this is the only way to go.
We must now turn reality into an N64 game.

It feels like the great flood of "content" happened by the hands of humans just just before the supervolcano of AI erupted and covered the earth in diamond dust.

I only understood it happened to Kara Dansky as well after her recent interview.
It's receding, but looking at the harm to people like you and her isn't any easier.

It may just be my own skill issue, but I want to say that it takes at least two years of pretty serious training on any typical instrument (piano, guitar etc.) to be merely tolerable in a casual sing along setting w friends.
Anyone can pick up a paint brush and stick what they made on their wall and often feel genuinely good about it.
