"Daydreaming is normal. It is a fantasy break from our daily slog. But when daydreaming becomes obsessive to the point of impairing daily life, it is maladaptive. For example, a person may replace unsatisfactory real relationships with imaginary ones, only to find themselves terribly alone."

Aha! THIS is ideal science:
CURIOSITY, clear communication,
respect (actual) corrections from anywhere,
honest effort to test and learn, and
share what you know with anyone interested.

It's not easy, but these are each necessary. I'm using 'science' here like STEM or STEAM.
So I broadly refer to a scientific method but also engineering expertise, mathematical review, and humanities' impact on supporting any of this to happen at all.

Ignoring currency hoarding by money addicts, the rest of us are here to enjoy contentment.
We can make real discoveries, inventions, and connect ideas to find useful applications.

(Also petition to call Dark Matter instead Clear Matter.)

TITLE: World’s Smallest Pacemaker is Made for Newborns, Activated by Light, and Requires No Surgery

URL: goodnewsnetwork.org/the-size-o

Northwestern University engineers have developed a pacemaker so small that it can fit inside the tip of a syringe and be non-invasively injected into the body, according to a new study published in Nature. Although it can work with hearts of all sizes, the pacemaker is particularly well-suited to the tiny, fragile hearts of newborn […]

@rozeboosje (I just assumed it was German? aaaa I am terrible at placing accents tho.) Frustrating af part is she clearly has an axe to grind with physics / academia and so do I.

It's possible I might have *more* reason to feel spurned unjustly, since mine is "systemic ableism led to late diagnosis, but I didn't get even the minimal support I was offered and accepted".

But I still stick to my vision of a better life for everyone I can help because that's... the only thing worth doing?

beep.

Semi-related: I need to do a basic layperson's guide to science set of videos. A bit like Minute Physics or CGP Grey, but about 'null hypothesis' (which I still need to learn, tbh) and 'a control group'.
