I’m a university prof in a medical science field. We hired a new, tenure-line prof to teach introductory musculoskeletal anatomy to prepare our students for the more rigorous, full systems anatomy that’s taught by a different professor. We learned (too late, after a year) that they used AI to generate the slides they used in lecture and never questioned/evaluated the content. Had an entire cohort of students fail the subsequent anatomy course after that.

But in my mind, what’s worse is that the administration did nothing to correct the prof, and continues to push a pro-AI narrative in order for us to spend less time investing resources in teaching.

Ergonomics/workplace safety officer here; you’re quite correct. The idea that sitting is the new smoking ignored the detail in the epidemiology: Inactivity is the real problem.

Yes it is, and that’s the problem. I work my butt off to identify mechanisms to reduce musculoskeletal injury risk, and then to maintain my employment, I have to hand the rights to that work to a private organization that profits over it. To make matters worse, I then do the work to ensure the quality of other publications for the journal through the peer review process and am not compensated for it.

Sign up for the trial and see. I was really worried that I’d blast through the base sunscription’s number of monthly searches, so I started counting the number of DDG searches I did a month. It was barely within Kagi’s, so I signed up. The awesome thing is that their results are better to the point that I use fewer queries now.

I actually teach my students about this strategy that the WHO employee in Micronesia in my sport nutrition class. It’s less about the iron fish, and more about that dietary iron can come from cast iron cooking sources instead of supplementation (as the latter often causes digestive distress).

I was in the same boat. Started marinating them in balsamic vinegar with a bit of salt and pepper and I can’t stop eating them! You can add rosemary, hot pepper flakes, etc to change the flavor as you wish.
