Unusual reporting between online outlets regarding this story. Some articles claim she is a California woman while others claim she is a Florida woman.

Florida woman Alexis Lorenze has a history of Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH). She was admitted to UCI Medical Center in California for treatment.

A 23-year-old California woman is fighting for her life at the hospital after she suffered an extreme reaction to vaccines.

tuxmain writes about cryptographic ring signatures and the mathematics behind them.

"Exposure to Aluminum, Cadmium, and Mercury and Autism Spectrum Disorder in Children: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis" by Rosalind Sulaiman, Meng Wang, and Xuefeng Ren

(Aluminum is a neurotoxic metal that is used as an adjuvant in vaccines.)

"Do aluminum vaccine adjuvants contribute to the rising prevalence of autism?" by Lucija Tomljenovic and Christopher A Shaw

https://sci-hub.st/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22099159/

I had read of the case of Hannah Poling, a girl whose family in 2010 filed an autism claim in "federal vaccine court" and won.

For years, federal health agencies and professional organizations had reassured the public that vaccines didn't cause autism. Now, with DHHS making this concession in a federal claims court, the government appeared to be saying exactly the opposite. Caught in the middle, clinicians were at a loss to explain the reasoning behind the VICP's decision.

The case is also reported by CBS news.

https://archive.is/http://www.cbsnews.com/news/family-to-receive-15m-plus-in-first-ever-vaccine-autism-court-award/

"Vaccines cause autism" is a claim that is heavily antagonized by The Mainstream as "anti-science" or "misinformation". A cursory search on a mainstream search engine often leads to headlines that cites a doctor whose license has been revoked but doesn't address the entire breadth or depth of suspicions. I had my results change drastically when "heavy metals" were added to the keywords.

"Hey, can I take a picture of your shirt?"

"Sure!"

The shirts given out at LayerOne had two variations. The staff shirts were green while the attendee shirts were dark blue. The graphic design on the shirts have a sequence in hex which can be decoded into a message that was part of a game within the event.

When asked about the hex sequence, the staff will generally say, the codes are the same or that the shirts are the same except for the colors which is correct but not in the way they expected.

Me assembling the badge for Layer One 2024.

This year's badge was a programmed fidget spinner with a row of lights. When spun, the lights would display text such as "HACK THE PLANET" depending on the mode set by pressing the button. However, the middle part had to be broken off, and I wanted to keep the whole thing intact.

My favorite effect was the rotations per minute counter.

Some girl takes my unimpressive looking gift from the gifts table:

"Oh! It's Steam!"

(A Steam wallet card.)

"Ooh, Steam," a few others notice.

"... What's Steam?" the hostess says, looking a bit confused.

(I played white elephant.) Also what I got from a Christmas party:

1. a soft blanket
2. three bottles of alcohol (more than I can drink on my own)
3. a card with Santa Claus on it
4. a candy bag (not in photo, eaten)

Today, I read into yes/no questions. Since the community is small, it is reasonable to ask if there are active or online users.

I couldn't find a definition for 'online'.

"lo sampli cu .akti."

(A user is active.)

"xu lo sampli cu .akti."

(Is a user active?)

'xu' is an interjection that indicates a question, so question marks are not necessary. 'xu' can be placed anywhere in a sentence.

"lo xu sampli cu .akti"

(Is any user active?)

"lo sampli xu cu .akti."

(Is it a user that is active?)

"lo sampli cu .akti xu."

(A user, is he or she active?)

Mon ami français s'est connecté au serveur Minetest. Il habite dans une cabane distante de la ville. Avant, il a acheté des provisions, mais aujourd'hui, il creé une ferme.

Underlined are words or phrases of the day.

• Je vais agrandir la cabane. Elle devient trops petite.
• La fois prochaine, je me mettrai à la recherche de semence.
• Ah oui. Comment on fait pour récupéré une ruche ?

In English:

• I am going to expand the cabin. It became too small.
• (rough) Next time, I am putting myself to search for seeds.
• Ah yes. How does one recover a (bee)hive?

(Minetest spawns bee nests on trees given a simple rule regardless of biome or proximity to flowers. He lives in a savannah where flowers don't grow. So when bee nests spawn on trees, the colony dies.)

#minetest #francais

Hier soir, je joué Minetest avec quelqu'un de France. Some noteworthy sentences:

1. Je suis déjà mort deux fois. mais pour l'instant je suis en bonne santé.
2. On peut en faire quelque chose les toiles d'arraignée ?
3. Il ne vaut mieux pas tomber là dedans. On ne retrouverait meme pas les os.

meaning

1. I already died twice, but for the moment, I am in good health.
2. We can do something about the webs of spiders? (We found webs made by monsterous spiders.)
3. It is better not to fall in there. We wouldn't even recover the bones. (We found a lava lake.)

The third sentence is an odd phrase that doesn't follow the general rule in that "ne ... pas" wraps around the verb ("faut"); instead, "faut mieux" is negated.

Another way to write "it's better not (to fall)" is

"il vaut mieux ne pas (tomber)".

In this case, the infinitive is just negated with "ne...pas" preceding it.

The Lojban dictionary gives the following definition for the word "tu'a".

tu'a — extracts a concrete sumti from an unspecified abstraction; equivalent to le nu/su'u [sumti] co'e.

The definition is difficult to understand, and most Lojban dictionaries do not have example sentences. The word was necessary to express:

"I practice more than one language."

Which translates to:

A very nice person gave me another example to help me understand the word.

"I try the door."

In a natural language, this can be interpreted as trying to open the door. Someone in real life stands in front of a door with a hand on the handle, what that someone is attempting to do can be inferred by the function of a door. However, Lojban is more literal.

"mi troci lo nu kargau le vorme"

(I try to open the door.)

"tu'a" leaves the specific activity to be inferred.

"mi troci tu'a le vorme."

(I try [something related to] the door.)

#lojban

I found this webpage for learning Lojban. Today, I read to the part about numbers.

https://lojban.pw/books/learn-lojban

In parenthesis are words that would make the sentence more complex than I am able to translate to Lojban.

I initially came up with mi crezenzu'e za'u pa bangu. A user had said that the second place of "crezenzu'e" must be an activity which a quantity of language does not satisfy.

This is a syntactic parser for Lojban to verify sentences.

https://lojban.github.io/ilmentufa/camxes.html

(I don't have a human tutor or a English-Lojban machine translator.) There is little explanation in the output, but I somewhat figured it out.

A Lojban video gave three example sentences; one of which is valid but does not make sense.

My interpretation:

'mlatu' is a 'selbri' (relation) that means "x is a cat breed of y".

1. x = 'mi' (I/me)
2. x = 'mi' (I/me), y = 'lo jutrperjan' (a Persian)
3. x = 'mi'; without 'lo' the selbri 'mlatu' is now compound with 'jutrperjan'

#lojban

I watched a video about Lojban.

https://yewtu.be/watch?v=KgxOrTvpWJ4

Based on the information in the video, I tried translating "I watched a video about Lojban" to Lojban. As the language is not structured around nouns and verbs but relations, I broke my sentence into two components.

I tried forming the sentence: mi pu mencti skina lo jbobau

But I'm not confident in combining "skina" (x1 is a video/film about x2 by filmmaker x3 for audience x4) and "mencti" (c1 mentally consumes c2) into a compound relation. But I found someone to ask. Their answer:

it should be something like "mi pu mencti le jbobau skina" or "mi pu mencti le skina pe le jbobau"
