What a lede ☠️ www.washingtonsun.com/sports/washi...
As soon as the clock hit zero, Dan Quinn ripped the headset off his backwards-ballcapped head and spiked it to the turf, in much the same way a well-prepared quarterback of a well-coached team might be expected to do with the football, when his team is out of timeouts and well within range of a game-winning field goal in the final, ticking seconds of a critical NFL game.

The Sick Times @thesicktimes.org · 07/10/2026
Researchers, clinicians, and advocates gathered for the inaugural conference of the International Society for Long COVID and Post-Acute Infection Syndromes in the Netherlands in late August. Read more from @davetuller1.bsky.social: thesicktimes.org/2026/10/06/b...
Collage graphic featuring a photo of buildings along a canal in Amsterdam, a cluster of tulips, an anatomical diagram showing the human brain and spinal cord, and a diagram of microbes, interspersed with colored blocks in golden and light green. The text reads, “The Sick Times. Biological pathways and mechanistic trials centered at new Long COVID conference in Amsterdam. By David Tuller. Reporting.”Key points you should know:

In late August, the International Society for Long COVID and Post-Acute Infection Syndromes hosted its inaugural gathering in Amsterdam. Hundreds hobnobbed in the H’ART Museum, a major cultural and conference facility in the heart of the city.
 
Presenters acknowledged that a series of clinical trials had produced disappointing results. They focused on seeking lessons from the null findings and called for more smartly designed trials targeting the pathological mechanisms believed to be involved.Some presenters highlighted innovative use of electronic wearables and remote monitoring in an effort to improve research and accurately track biological events, such as the occurrence of post-exertional malaise.
 
PROBE-PASC, a program centering mechanistic trials for Long COVID funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, was revealed during the conference.

Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

Just saw someone say their AI runs their fantasy football team and I can’t stop laughing. Like, I’m sure everyone’s doing it or something but it’s very funny to me that pretending to be a team manager was so hard that you needed to pretend to pretend to be a team manager

I always appreciate hearing from folks who have deep experience. I try to use critical thinking and not blindly follow folks. That said, I agree with Fowler here, and I find his "I don't like the cut of your jib" attitude towards LLMs quite understandable.

I'm not going to complain about _any_ public money being spent on trials, but I think I agree with this sentiment. If we were going to find a cheap silver bullet we would have found it by now. We likely need to discover more about this disease (break it into parts, with markers) first.

I think that as economists we should be a lot more concerned that everyone feels like they've got poorer when the data show they haven't. We certainly shouldn't just be assuming that the customers are wrong, rather than that we're no longer measuring things that are most relevant to wellbeing
