Flag: suggested answer (don't read if don't want to see a (possibly incorrect) attempt:

Update - realise some bi-modal continuous distribution may be better (but potentially difficult to perform the update)

Attempt: we model the parameter pi in a Bayesian way: we put a distribution on pi (0.7 w.p 1/2, 0.2 w.p 1/2) then we weight the 1/2 with the likelihood of the observations, given that parameter (i.e. what is the likleihood when pi = 0.7, multiply that by 1/2 then divide by the normalizing constant to get our new probability for pi = 0.7 (do the same for pi = 0.2, the normalizing constant is the sum of the 'scores' for 0.7 and 0.2 i.e. 1/2 * likelihood so we can't 'divide by the normalising constant until we have the score for both 0.2 and 0.7)

Flag - suggested answer (don't read if don't want to see a (possibly incorrect) attempt:

Grateful for comments here as I am not very certain on the situations that the MLE approach is better vs situations where Bayesian approach is better

Suggested answer:

c(i) Is frequentist approach where we have one parameter estimate (the MLE) c(ii) bayesian approach - distribution over parameters and we update our prior belief based on observations If we have no prior belief - c(i) may be a better estimate (i.e. in (my version of) c(ii) we are constraining the parameters to be 0.7 or 0.2 and updating our relative convictions about these - which is a strong prior asssumption (we can never have 0.5 for instance) If we do have prior belief and also want to incorporate uncertainty estimations in our parameters, I think c(ii) is better If the MLE is 0.7 then we will have c(i) giving 0.7 and c(ii) giving 0.7 with a very high probability and 0/2 with a very low probability to the methods will perform similarly

Richard P Gabriel documents the history behind 'worse is better' a talk he held in Cambridge in #1989/ The role of LISP in the then AI wave stands out to me. And the emergence of C++ on Unix and OOP. I remember doing a study project (~91) w Andre en Martin in C++ v2 because we realised w OOP it would be easier to solve and the teacher thought it would be harder for us to use a diff language.

question - earth system boundaries - biodiversity - how do we reconcile these boundaries with climate departure? - Does the term "functional integrity" imply autonomy from climate feedbacks? Obviously, climate feedback plays a huge role in determining biodiversity health - In 2013, Mora et al. found that climate departure, the year in which a climate variable moves out of the historical bounds will occur everywhere on the planet, regardless of an aggressive RCP pathway being taken. In this study, climate departure was found to take place (relative to 2013) - 37.5 years in the future under RCP45, or - 22.5 years in the future under RCP85 - It would seem that the biodiversity boundaries should take into consideration climate departure as species extinction and ecological system disruption is projected to occur, regardless of whether RCP45 or RCP85 is adopted. - Currently, we are still on a Business-As-Usual trajectory, but since 2013, scientific research has moved the danger threshold even lower so climate departure dates are likely even sooner than those calculated in the 2013 Mora paper

Case Previous Testing: Total RNA was isolated from peripheral blood lymphocytes or lymphoblastoid cell lines and from frozen liver biopsy as described in Chomczynski and Sacchi (1987). For each patient two cDNA syntheses were performed: 10mg of total RNA with 800-1000 ng of oligo dT or 500ng of specific primer NR, mapping in the 3’UTR of OTC cDNA Identification of genetic lesions by amplification of the OTC mRNA, expressed in the liver tissue and intestine, from a non-specific tissue like PBL or lymphoblastoid cell lines. Some mutations, particularly those affecting splicing sites, may have a different expression in liver and PBL . In females, including manifesting carriers, this method allows the identification of deletions and gene rearrangements with certainty, but mutations, decreasing mRNA stability, are unlikely to be detected because the normal allele will constitute the majority of the RNA available for RT-PCR and will be preferentially amplified.

作用：确保了对变量的直接内存访问 在C语言中,volatile关键字的主要作用是: 1. 防止编译器对变量进行优化 编译器通常会对程序进行优化,以提高运行效率。但是对于一些与硬件密切相关的变量,编译器优化可能会导致一些意料之外的结果。volatile关键字可以告诉编译器,该变量可能会被意外因素影响,因此每次使用该变量时都要重新从内存中读取。这就防止了编译器对该变量进行优化和缓存。 2. 用于多线程编程 在多线程编程中,如果多个线程访问同一个变量,而该变量没有被适当地保护,就可能导致竞态条件。将变量声明为volatile可以确保每个线程都直接从内存中读取变量的值,而不是使用寄存器中的值。这样可以避免一些并发访问的问题。 3. 访问硬件寄存器 volatile关键字常用于访问内存映射的硬件寄存器,如设备的控制寄存器。这些寄存器的值可能会被硬件异步修改,所以编译器不应该对访问这些寄存器的代码进行优化。 需要注意的是,volatile关键字本身并不能解决所有的并发问题,它只是确保了对变量的直接内存访问。在多线程编程中,仍然需要采用适当的同步机制,如互斥锁、信号量等,来保护共享数据。 总之,volatile关键字的作用是防止编译器对变量进行优化,确保直接从内存中读取变量的值,这在硬件编程和多线程编程中非常有用。

Case Previous Testing: "Genomic DNAs were extracted from leukocytes, The ten exons and intron-exon boundaries of the OTC gene were PCR amplified and analyzed by Sanger sequencing on an ABI3100 sequencer. Intragenic deletions/duplications were searched for by Multiple Ligation Probe Dependent Amplification assay. Potential impact of non truncating variants on mRNA and protein was predicted using Splice Site Prediction. OTC variants were split into two groups, “severe” and “mild,” based on their impact on the clinical phenotype and on the OTC protein.

Supplemental Data: Table 3, All nuclear family members were tested but no information about their genotype. the condition to be part of this study was the presence of at least one heterozygous female in the pedigree of the patient.

CaseNOTHPOs: N/A

CaseNOTHPOFreeText: neurological damage

CasePreviousTesting: gDNA extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes. PCR all coding exons and exon–intron boundaries of the OTC gene using 9 pairs of synthetic oligonucleotide primers, and the primer sequences and annealing temperature. PCR products were then purifed and bidirectionally sequenced. The library was sequenced using Illumina HiSeq4000 and generated 150 bp paired-end reads. Data analysis was performed as previously described [Sun Y, Hu G, Liu H, Zhang X, Huang Z, Yan H, et al. Further delineation of the phenotype of truncating KMT2A mutations: the extended Wiedemann–Steiner syndrome. Am J Med Genet A. 2017;173:510–4.]. Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplifcation analysis was performed for samples in which Sanger sequencing or WES failed to detect any disease-causing mutation.

Im südlichen Teil Brasiliens fvel in diesem Frühjahr in 10 Tagen so viel Regen wie sonst in einem ganzen Jahr. Es handelt sich um die größte klimabedingte Katastrophe im Bundesstaat Rio Grande del Sol der bereits im vergangenen Jahr von zwei großen Überschwemmungen betroffen war. Die extremen Regenfälle, die es so früher in dieser Region nicht gab, werden von Forschenden auf die globale Erhitzung und mit ihr verbundene Klimaphänomene zurückgeführt. Ausführlicher hintergrundartikel im Guardian der sich auf eine Reihe von Studien und Interviews mit Forschenden bezieht. https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/article/2024/may/10/brazil-is-reeling-from-catastrophic-floods-what-went-wrong-and-what-does-the-future-hold

for - Oded Rechavi - neurobiology - gene centrism - critique - from - youtube podcast interview - book - Understanding Living Systems - Ray Noble - Denis Noble

summary - Rechavi performed experiments with C Elegan and demonstrated that it possesses a type of neuron that - produces RNA that in response to elevated temperature change is transmitted to reproductive cells so that the offsprings encode it in the genome, and it is better adapted to deal with elevated temperatures

question - How many species do this? Is it generally found throughout nature?

0:03 vitamin C: see also http://orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v18n14.shtml -- The Restoration of Vitamin C Synthesis in Humans. by Thomas E. Levy and Ron Hunninghake. contrary to popular belief, we humans can produce vitamin C in our body. our vitamin C deficiency is not a genetic defect, but an aquired weakness, because of false nutrition. adding olive oil and olive leaf to the nutrition increases the vitamin C levels in the body. vitamin C is also relevant in fighting cancer (natural cancer cures, Frederick Klenner, Linus Pauling)
