Oh look. They solved that pesky grassroots protest issue. Fixed that whole "citizens having a voice in what happens to their homes and communities BS. Man, what a relief, first amendment avoided!

Small update, I added a couple alternate badges for music/video and updated the PDF/Illustrator files at the post to include them. Thanks.

human made art badges - alternatives with a cassette icon or video tape icon.

Finished my recreation of a candelabra from Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines (original pictured in third image). It could be optimized a little more, but I'm happy with how it turned out. Lmk what you think! #vtmb #3dart #3dassets #3dprops #b3d #blender3d #gamedev

This is a WIN for science. RFK Jr’s overhaul of vaccine recommendations has been BLOCKED by a federal court. The ACIP committee cannot meet as planned this week, since its membership has been invalidated, and ALL votes made by those advisers in the last year have also been invalidated.

Sounds a lot like the perceived skill cycle!

A graph comparing an artist's skill at creating art to their skill at evaluating art. When their skill to create is higher, there's an art high where they feel great. When the skill to evaluate is higher, there's an art low where the artist loses confidence. But the key is: both skill levels are always improving.

Quick art tip: If your glowy lights look flat/boring (they read more like fog than light), it might be because you're fading from 100% to 0%. Instead, try using an off color, and boost it to, say, 150%. This gives the same peak color, but fades through a different tone. #gamedev #indiedev

Top three panels show the "flat and boring" versions of glowy lights. Their colors are cyan, yellow, and white. As they fade, they remain cyan, yellow, and white.

Bottom three panels show the "interesting and bright" alternatives. The cyan light fades into blue. The yellow light fades into orange. The white light fades into a slightly yellow off-white.

Here's another wip asset for the game I'm working on. It's a supply crate. I plan to have a few variants of it. Let me know what you think! #3dart #3dassets #3dprops #b3d #blender3d #gamedev #wipart

A work-in-progress 3D model of a supply crate. It is one of a few variants. This variant is the largest.

The work-in-progress supply crate is being shown next to the kobold player model to compare scale.

The study has been published in Nature. YES, it is PEER-REVIEWED. • www.nature.com/articles/s41...

SUMMARY
Health records of MORE THAN 280,000 individuals revealed that those who received the shingles vaccine were 20% LESS LIKELY to develop dementia over the next seven years than those who DID NOT receive the vaccine.

ABSTRACT
Neurotropic herpesviruses may be implicated in the development of dementia. Moreover, vaccines may have important off-target immunological effects. Here we aim to determine the effect of live-attenuated herpes zoster vaccination on the occurrence of dementia diagnoses.
To provide causal as opposed to correlational evidence, we take advantage of the fact that, in Wales, eligibility for the zoster vaccine was determined on the basis of an individual's exact date of birth. Those born before 2 September 1933 were ineligible and remained ineligible for life, whereas those born on or after 2 September 1933 were eligible for at least 1 year to receive the vaccine.
Using large-scale electronic health record data, we first show that the percentage of adults who received the vaccine increased from 0.01% among patients who were merely 1 week too old to be eligible, to 47.2% among those who were just 1 week younger. Apart from this large difference in the probability of ever receiving the zoster vaccine, individuals born just 1 week before 2 September 1933 are unlikely to differ systematically from those born 1 week later.
Using these comparison groups in a regression discontinuity design, we show that receiving the zoster vaccine reduced the probability of a new dementia diagnosis over a follow-up period of 7 years by 3.5
percentage points (95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.6-
7.1, P=0.019), corresponding to a 20.0% (95% Cl =6.5-
33.4) relative reduction. This protective effect was stronger among women than men.

We successfully confirm our findings in a different population (England and Wales's combined population), with a different type of data (death certificates) and using an outcome (deaths with dementia as primary cause) that is closely related to dementia, but less reliant on a timely diagnosis of dementia by the healthcare system.
Through the use of a unique natural experiment, this study provides evidence of a dementia-preventing or dementia-delaying effect from zoster vaccination that is less vulnerable to confounding and bias than the existing associational evidence.
This study was funded by grants to P.G. by The Phil & Penny Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience at the Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute, Stanford University (KPI-003), the National Institute on Aging (R01AG084535), National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (DP2AI171011) and Chan Zuckerberg Biohub-San Francisco.
