  • Do you call this well studied?

    Yes.

    Feel free to review any of the 54,000 scientific papers if you don’t like the one I shared. If you’d read and understood the abstract, you’d have seen that it is both an original study and review of the field of previous research. The page also includes links directly to dozens of related and cited papers. Psychological and behavioral studies are typically case studies, or group studies like this. This is considered a larger study in the field.

    Feel free to present any paper that supports your counterclaim that there is simply not enough known about the issue to determine whether sibling incest is harmful or not. Please be sure that is is from this century and well-cited, since I did you the same courtesy. You can access full-text articles through an academic login, many public libraries, or archive sites.




  • The industry will end up with one or two winners and a lot of losers. Very hard to predict these things (smart money in 1997 was that Apple was about to file bankruptcy). One or two companies will have success and the rest will evaporate or be absorbed. Then the AI product itself will be priced up (and dumbed down) significantly.

    AI will not go away, but will be far more limited and specialized. The day of free general access to powerful chatbots will be up.






  • Hi, community Mod here. Welcome to Lemmy!

    This is an interesting article, but unfortunately it does not meet the community rules. Each community here has their own community rules posted, as well as server rules to be aware of. The !news@lemmy.world community tries to be as fair as possible in making sure that what is posted here is factual and reliable.

    I’d suggest finding another news source to share this news from (and posting from the original source, not an aggregator site like Yahoo). You can always DM any community mod if you have questions.


  • You might be interested in Rush, which detects music from your “now playing” and displays the lyrics beautifully. Then you can use whatever local player you like for your library and have great lyrics experience regardless.

    If you end up setting up a home server with navidrome or similar, Chora has the best lyrics search and display. The website also mentions local playback, so it may meet your need, although I’ve never used it that way.

    It’s been a while since I’ve used a local player, but the best ones I’ve found were Oto Music (closed source), which has very good lyrics search and support, and Booming Music.

    PixelPlayer also looks like a promising new option.



  • Some people find it helpful to name the negative self-talk voice. Then you can say things like, “shut up, Karen. You never have useful suggestions.”

    There is also something in toddler parenting called a “no thanks bite.” That’s the first vite of food that you have to decide if you want to say “no thanks.” It works with toddlers because there is less pressure around eating, and you are allowed to try new things that you might later decide not to have.

    The adult version is the same. When trying out a new health routine, etc., you can do a “no thanks try.” Say, I am going to go to the gym this week and next week. If it works out, I may go again after that, or I may not. It just depends on whether it fits in my routine.

    Remember that we have routines for reasons. We don’t always know why. Routines are very hard to change while the underlying reasons persist.






  • There is a conflict between confidentiality and mandatory reporting. The ideal of confidentiality is that anything you say in private that you don’t want recorded or repeated should be kept private. The ideal of mandatory reporting is that if anyone finds out about a crime a person has committed, it should be reported for the sake of justice.

    The solution is that we limit both of them in different situations. Confidentiality is generally limited to those who have a crucial and necessary role in keeping information confidential. In other words, those positions or professions that are deemed essential by society and which require confidentiality to function properly. That’s lawyers, medical professionals, and in some cases, religious professionals.

    Mandatory reporting is generally limited to those who are in a position that allows access to vulnerable individuals. That’s teachers, social workers, police officers, and sometimes also medical professionals or religious professionals.

    Because those include some of the same categories, the law gets very specific and sometimes even contradictory in different jurisdictions.
