- Lots of private work.
- Updated sbsc banner. Committed lines. Submitted picks. This is second-to-last week. I’m in 3rd place, 3 points back.
- Nontrivial lines this week. They were give rationally (1/2 lol) but I had already accommodated that.
- The issue was that this was the first week since the chargers moved from SD to LA that we had an LA vs LA matchup. I had never written the logic to handle that.
- The ESPN score fetch isn’t by team name, it’s by team city, so Los Angeles vs Los Angeles needs another distinction. Ugh.
- Propagated home vs visiting to determine uniqueness for the 2 scores.
- NY’s Billion Oyster Project: https://www.billionoysterproject.org/ – restores the population but also cleans the rivers for us.
- You can have Harry Mack do a custom freestyle (for birthday, wedding, whatever) for $350: https://shop.harrymackofficial.com/products/custom-freestyle. Another option is a 10min zoom freestyle for $500.
- Remember jupyter shortcuts: ctrl-enter is to run the cell, arrow down is to select below, shift-enter is to run the cell and select below (same as arrow button in toolbar).
pip3 install black[jupyter] then black . --diff to show suggestions (without autoformatting all files in place).- Followup on EMF in IR saunas.
- From the hightechhealth standards, you want magnetic fields <3mG (300nT) and electric fields <300V/m.
- Direct quote: “In vitro studies have shown increased gene transcription in some oncogenes (cancer causing genes) and in genes associated with growth and development after exposure to just 8mG (0.8 uT) (18), and animal studies have shown oxidative stress in the spleen and testes of male guinea pigs after exposure to electric field as low as 300 V/m (19,20). Epidemiologic studies have found a significant increase in leukemia in children living near high power lines and chronically exposed to EMF in the range of just 4 mG (0.4 uT) (23). Magnetic field EMFs at just 2 – 3 mG (0.2 – 0.3 uT) were shown to alter the rate of Na/K-ATPase, the pump that creates the electrical gradient across cell membranes required for nerve conduction and other cell functions (25). In comparison, while sitting inside a typical infrared sauna with carbon-based heaters, you are exposed to EMFs of up to 150 mG magnetic field and 2000 – 3000 V/m electric field.”
- MiHIGH reported their magnetic field strength is 3-15mG. Since I run it at full power, I assume I’m at ~15mG. They explicitly said that they don’t have a measurement for electric field.
- Conclusion: won’t use my sauna anymore!
- By comparison: a phone up to your head is ~50mG temporarily. Electric razor, other appliances (with nominal distance of use) are all about 1-5mG. TVs, fridges, static appliances are a little further away, about same exposure though. Wifi similar ballpark as well.
- The pandas lib for python is short for “panel data” – never knew. It’s just mean for multidimensional analysis (whereas lists are unidimensional, like other primitives).
- Vscode navigation reminders:
- To go to a definition: ctrl-click or F12 to jump, ctrl-alt-click to open def in another tab.
- To jump back to the reference: shift-F12
