#Layman's Guide To Multiplicity

[fictionfreedom]

Violently slamming the fact that DID and other "Dissociative Disorders" related to Plurality were made by Ableist doctors who believed in "False Memories" and had MANY patients come out about being abused and/or the Integration forced upon them causing them to be unable to function due to the lack of their Headmates

Anyways, please read This, I feel it helped give a lot of light on why you honestly shouldn't bother interacting much with 'Anti-endos' and 'Sysmeds'

I know we posted the link before but certain,, posts keep popping up on our dashboard.

(The link outside of text: https://www.astraeasweb.net/plural/allison.html)

Also, for anyone who does read that I feel the need to say (if the information does actually reach you): Do NOT be ashamed at using the term DID for yourself, or anything mentioned to be "Bad" in that text. If you can go without using it, obviously it could be great if you would, but if it's the most comfortable term for you then you're under no obligation to stop using it for others comfort. Same goes for plenty of other stuff.

Also: Go check out the other plural post we made, Specifically the one mention Layman's Guide To Multiplicity. (Though, if you can't find it, here's the Link) ((Note: The website doesn't load very well on Mobile, so you may have trouble reading it on a phone. It's still able to be read, but it may feel a bit annoying))

The Mommy Protocol

Chapter 5.2

(End of setup, I promise)

7 days before the incident

I spent the rest of the day signing documents and answering questions about my personality. I never cared for that kind of stuff. The notion of people’s personalities being tied to shapes in the sky or times of the year a person was born sounded like superstitious nonsense to me. As far as I was concerned, there were only two deciding factors to a person’s personality, how they were raised and how the world treats them. There was more nuance to it than that, but to say that a person is guided by the light of stars that may no longer exist, snuffed out by the decay of time thousands of years ago and whose final moments have yet to be seen by man was lunacy in my eyes. Like most superstitions, there were devout believers but no matter how many times I tried to listen to their reasoning, I always found myself wishing they would just shut up.

Emily was not like those people. She saw the world as a series of puzzles and solutions. Every challenge had a solution and her pragmatic approach to problem solving had led her to seek solutions beyond the limits of man. “We are our own worst enemy,” she said. It was near the end of the day and we were talking about how she got into robotics as a profession. “We dream higher than we can achieve. We are often limited by our fragile physicality. So much so that we created technology to overcome our weaknesses. Autonomous robots are the next logical step, but even the great leaps we’ve made only seem to prompt more questions.”

In an effort to sound more intelligent, I tried conversing on her level, likely sounding like a moron to her ears. “How do we make something greater than ourselves?”

She smiled at me, pleased with my understanding, as limited as it was. I wasn’t stupid by any means, but I struggled to understand some of the terms she had been using. “Precisely! Our developed brains have allowed us to create and problem solve far beyond what our ape brethren can comprehend, but what they lack in brain power, they more than excel at in physical strength. Robotics is similar in this regard. The machines we make and the materials we make them out of are far stronger than we are, but a machine is only as smart as the program that guides it. How can we emulate something we barely understand?”

She was referring, of course, to the human brain. “And that’s where artificial intelligence comes in?”

“Indeed. It is my hope that we can train an artificial intelligence to be better than humans. Imagine a being without greed or selfishness. Without hate or anger. Jealousy or envy. A being that uses empathy and sympathy without need of reward or personal enrichment.”

“But aren’t all of those things what makes us human?”

“Quite correct. But I’m not trying to make a human, I’m trying to make something more.”

I looked through the window at Alyssa. She was in rest mode or standby, I wasn’t sure what the difference was. It was strange watching her be completely motionless. She reminded me of a mannequin in a department store, dressed and posed to sell the newest fashion.

“How do you program behaviors?”

“We don’t really program behaviors. We have what we call protocols. They are a list of reactions based on stimuli. We add these to her theory of the mind A.I.”

I looked at her confused, “You lost me.”

“The layman’s version is that Alyssa learns from the people she’s around and adjusts her behavior accordingly, just like you or I would.”

“Can you give me an example?”

“Certainly. Let’s say that Alyssa is with a small child. Like a toddler. Maybe three or four years old. Now the toddler may be having a tantrum or other emotional outburst. Alyssa has a series of protocols she can go through to try to soothe the child and when she does, she learns what works and what doesn’t for next time the child is in that state.”

“But no two states are the same.”

“Correct. So she runs through them all multiple times until she has a functional baseline of what can work with the child and what can’t work, thus learning based on real world data how best to use the knowledge she’s gained.”

“And where do I fit into this? I’m not a toddler.”

“No, you are not. However, Alyssa needs more adult interaction before she can learn from children, and that’s where you come in. The more people she can socialize with, the more she can learn from things like body cues or voice stress patterns to appear more normal.”

I started to question this whole process. If Alyssa was far enough along to have a database to pull from, then what was I needed for? Anyone could fit the job description of talking to someone else. This place wouldn’t need to offer such amenities to get someone in the door.

“It’s getting late,” Emily said. “Go home and get some rest. Start packing and we can pick this up in the morning. When you are ready, we will arrange to have the things you need brought here.”

I yawned, not realizing what time it was until I looked at my phone. I noticed that my cell service didn’t work in the building, which wasn’t unusual. I would only pay for the cheapest plan I could find, and only on a month to month basis.

“What does she do when we aren’t around?” I asked as I stood up and stretched. Alyssa was sitting in the same spot she had been since I arrived. She hadn’t moved in the slightest and I couldn’t help but feel sorry for her. If she understood what existence was, hers had to be the most empty of anyone I had met.

“She has a power save function. She updates her system with new protocols and information. Like the human mind, hers never stops working.”

“On what?”

“Learning.”

“How can she learn when she’s not given any stimuli?”

“How do we learn as babies? We watch. We imitate. It’s clumsy at first but once we start to get the hang of it, we improve.”

“But that’s stimuli. Something has to happen for her to imitate it.”

“Very true. I guess I don’t really know. If I were here to observe her, then I would be giving her something to imitate. You’ve raised an interesting line of thought, one that we will look into together, tomorrow.” Emily led me out of the room and locked the door with a swipe of her key fob. There wasn’t anyone else in the building and we walked out the front door together. I couldn’t help but be torn. On one hand, Alyssa was left there by herself until morning with nothing to do, no instructions to follow, nothing. On the other, she was a machine, an imitation of life, no more aware of her existence than any of the other machines. She was incapable of understanding isolation or abandonment. She just…was…until such a time when she was needed again.

Back at my dorm, I wasn’t surprised to find a letter from the university on my bed, left there by my roommate. I already knew what it said, or at least I had an educated guess. I was either on suspension, probation, or the university wished to part ways. None of which mattered to me. I felt stifled by the room and took to packing my limited belongings. I would have to return my books to the campus library for a limited refund and turn in my room key but that was of little consequence. All in all, I was packed in less than an hour. My makeup box and suitcase of clothing were really all I had. It struck me as kind of sad, like if I died in my sleep, a suitcase and a makeup box were all I amounted to. No one would speak of me fondly. Hell, I doubted if anyone would even remember my name in a week. I looked down at the dress I wore with its hemline of roses. It was perhaps the only thing I owned that spoke of my personality. Thorny but beautiful. Handle with care. I heard some of the girls from a few rooms down laughing hysterically. They seemed so happy. They were likely living their best lives. College was the peak for many of them.

I thought about the girl I had been with last night. I couldn’t even remember her name or what she looked like.

That will be me, I thought, no one will remember me. I don’t matter to them. I don’t matter to anyone.

Is this what it feels like to be Alyssa? Empty and directionless? Am I no more human than she is?

I feel. She- no. It doesn’t feel. It is nothing more than wires and clockwork. It is just a thing that looks like a person. It’s not a person. I am. I am a person. I have feelings. I am more than the parts that make me. And I…

My roommate burst through the door with her boyfriend. He was the typical jock type and whenever they were together they acted like they were still in high school with revolting displays of affection. She stopped abruptly when she saw me sitting next to the cases on my bed.

“You’re leaving?” She asked.

“Didn’t think I was going to stick around, did you?”

“I just…I guess not. This really isn’t your scene after all.”

“Because I’m not a big party person? Or a slut?”

“What? No! Of course not. Just you never seemed like the type to…you know, follow the crowd.”

The few times we had talked near the start of the year, I had remarked on how I didn’t care for being told how to think. I was honestly surprised that she was listening.

“Well, no good ideas ever came out of doing what everyone else does.”

“Where will you go?” She asked.

“I have a job lined up,” I said. I doubted that she cared. She was just being polite. “I have enough to find a place to live.”

“Well, good luck out there.” I could tell that the conversation had run its course. Her interest in my life only stretched as far as her attention span and with her boyfriend’s hands on her hips, I was clearly a third wheel.

“Thanks. Guess I’ll go have one last bland meal at the cafeteria,” I said, standing up. “I’ll pick up my stuff later.”

As I closed the door behind me I heard her boyfriend say, “Wanna do it on her bed?”

To be honest, it stung a little to be waved aside and ushered out the door so they could fool around. But I did my best to push it out of my mind, to push all of it out of my mind, all of the hurt, the emptiness, the loneliness, and the sadness.

a journal entry rambling about feeling overwhelmed and business and Valve and stuff

bleugh, I think I'm starting to feel overwhelmed over here. there's a lot of stuff suddenly happening in a short amount of time, and I think I'm starting to feel the fatigue, even though I'm used to running multiple accounts on many sites.

it's hard to focus on my work when I'm seeing so many other people taking advantage of others for purely their own gain, not giving them the same respect you'd expect them to give you. value for the customer feels like it's at an all-time low.

there's gotta be something better than this, right?

Anyway, I was digging through a backup college hard drive from 2011-2015 looking for pencil tests to share, and found a saved copy from 2012 of the Valve Employee Handbook (which you can check out for yourself on archive.org here).

I love reading business books (the most enthralling of reading material, I know xP), but I never actually read the entirety of this book back in 2012, which is probably part of why I struggled for years to understand the "flat" structure of the company and how it all worked.

Reading it years later after working in freelance, I think it suddenly clicked: It's a guide to running your own studio, because that's effectively your job at Valve. Everyone runs the studio. Everyone is at an executive level and required to be generally proficient in a number of relevant fields (while being best-in-class at maybe one niche track), because you have to be able to hop in and help on or start a project with a level of competency... if I'm understanding it correctly. From my layman's perspective, you might stand a decent chance at getting a job there if you were to, for example, start up a small indie game studio, build a solid title with a small staff, and find success with it.

Some of the notable sections to me are this bit, which talks about how to decide on what projects to work on (something I struggle with every day, heck I just tried to sort out a list last week of about 25 projects that I was poking at in some level but kept struggling on which ones to prioritize):

and also this bit that talks about crunch, and why it generally doesn't (or shouldn't) happen there, again applicable to my own experience and something I usually avoid whenever I pace myself properly:

I'm intimidated by the idea of running my own studio, but the more I continue to climb, the more intriguing the idea becomes, and it gets harder to ignore. there's forming a studio just to initially make it possible to work on larger projects ala Studio Grackle & Studio Yotta, and there's also growing it bigger into something more grand.

Before I head off for lunch, I'll drop this section off too, because I like it a lot:

Qwerty's Guide to Gambling: Coin Dozer Algorithm

Qwerty's Guide to Gambling: Coin Dozer Algorithm (Tumblr)

Alright, so I recommend first looking for dropped change both around and underneath the machine, and inside the deposit shoot, especially for coin dozers (or "Quarter Games") installed in bars.

Basically, you'll have buzzed people playing these things whose hand-eye coordination is impaired, so they'll be dropping coins everywhere, overlooking coins jammed into the corner of the deposit area, etc.

Remember: Only play when sober! You become stupid when drunk.

----

These machines can take multiple types of coins, so as an abstraction, we're going to <i>count the number of tokens</i> not the raw monetary value.

First, we have our amount of tokens. This will be set to <i>the amount of coins we start the game with.</i> In layman's terms: The amount of change in your pocket.

<code>unsigned int token_count=starting_tokens;</code>

Second, we need to set threshhold where, when our amount of coins drops to this point, we stop playing the game.

<code>unsigned int minimum_token_count;</code>

Where "minimum_token_count" is a value in the range [0,starting_tokens]. In laymens terms: You don't want to waste all your money!

An example: You start with 8 tokens, but you want to keep at least 4 tokens. So when your token count during play drops to 4, you stop playing.

(Everyone reading this is probably going "Why is this loser autist-splaining common sense?" lol.)

Third, set our threshold where, when our token count reaches or exceeds this amount, we quit the game. This is our <i>profit threshold</i> and is here to prevent us from <i>pissing away what little good luck we get.</i>

<code>unsigned int profit_threshold;</code>

Where "profit_threshold" is a value in the range [starting_tokens+1, UINT_MAX].

Example: We start with 8 tokens and have our profit threshold being set at having a total of 10 tokens. We get lucky, so on the first play the machine returns 6 tokens, so we now have 13 tokens. 13 is greater then 10, so we quit playing.

Alright, let's write an extremely autistic C program that demonstrates the algorithm (I don't like pseudocode. There's like, 70 trillion different interpretations of it, which ironically makes it more confusing then standard code.)

<code>

unsigned int token_count=starting_tokens;

unsigned int minimum_token_count=/*something*/;

unsigned int profit_threshold=/*something*/;

void spend_token(){

token_count--;

....

token_count+=tokens_deposited_by_machine;

}

int main(int argc, char *argv[]){

 do {

 spend_token();

 }while((token_count&gtminimum_token_count) &amp&amp (token_count&ltprofit_threshold));

}

</code>

Setting the initial value for "token_count" is easy, but determining the values for "minimum_token_count" and "profit_ threshold" is tricky.

The safest value for "profit_threshold" is starting_tokens+1, as that would mean whenever our total coin count is larger then our starting amount we end the game, even if it's just one coin more.

And that isn't a bad strategy as when these machines do pay out, it's often a decent amount as the way the coins bunch up at the edge, they sort of "interlock" with each other, causing the coins not directly overhanging the edge to fall into the payout chute, leading to fairly chunky payouts.

But there's a nonzero chance for payouts greater then one coin to be deposited, so by having such a low payout limit might prevent us from receiving a larger profit.

One possible solution to this is to change "minimum_token_count" and "profit_threshold" on the fly. If we get to a point in the game where we now have more coins then when we started with, it might be advantageous to update those values so that we can continue playing for a chance at a bigger profit, but still ensuring we don't significantly eat into the profit we just got.

Likewise "minimum_token_count" has a similar problem. We don't want to put <i>just one coin in</i> and not continue if we don't immediately get a payout. Oftentimes it takes putting a couple coins in so that the coins on the playboard become agitated and pushed forward enough in order to obtain a payout.

Fortunately unlike most gambling machines, we can <i>see the internal state of the machine!</i> No microprocessor here, only coins pushing up against each other! It's all deterministic! (Well, technically everything is deterministic because the <i>universe itself is deterministic</i> bit SHHHH!!! Don't tell the free will believing losers that!)

Another thing is that with these pusher type machines is that the slider, which allows for rough positioning for where the coin should fall, does give us some ability to manipulate how the coins on the playfield behave. It's not much, but it is something.

And finally: Try messing with the button that pauses the pusher's movement. It might be called something cheesy like "skill stop". Other then as an accessibility feature (eg, you have poor fine motor skills or have difficulty timing things) this button is pretty useless. It's not hard timing you putting the coin into the machine up, and it isn't a time save either because these usually don't react immediately and only activate when the pusher is dead ahead or behind.

But..... The small idiosyncrasies of <i>how</i> it's implemented might be useful. Maybe one machine doesn't stop the pusher as gently as it should, causing a stronger then normal deceleration on the coins, possibly causing some to fall. Idk, it wouldn't hurt to experiment.

Oh, and sometimes you can win something that aren't coins. Usually whoever maintains the machine puts "bonus prizes" on top of the coins. Those are worth considering.

----

Of course there's various <i>unscrupulous</i> crap you could do, like nudging the machine or tilting it forwards. We call those "tricks" <i>asshole behavior.</i>

First: It's cheating. Unless this is in a big chain casino, your just screwing with some petit-bourgeois small business; Second: These machines usually have balanced mechanisms that activate when tilt, preventing payouts; Third: It's an excellent way of getting kicked out.

Importance of Professional Medical Writing Services in Healthcare

Importance of Professional Medical Writing Services in Healthcare

Medical writing involves the expertise to craft the healthcare content keeping in mind the audience you are catering to. This includes creating information for general readers seeking healthcare treatments who may not be familiar with medical terminology. For example, they might recognize terms like ‘high blood pressure’ instead of ‘hypertension’ or ‘high blood sugar level’ instead of ‘hyperglycaemia.’ Skilled medical writers transform complex medical terminology and clinical research data into accessible and easy-to-understand information for through a process known as medical communication.

Importance of Professional Medical Writing in Healthcare Content Creation

In today’s era of information and technology, professional medical writers play a crucial role in bridging the gap between complex medical information and diverse audiences. They create clear, accurate, and engaging healthcare content that enhances public awareness and education, ultimately fostering trust and engagement with healthcare organizations. Additionally, medical writers are pivotal in developing well-structured documentation to support regulatory approval processes for new treatments, ensuring adherence to strict guidelines and standards. Their expertise improves communication and drives advancements in healthcare and patient outcomes.

How Medical Communication Facilitates Regulatory Approvals? A medical writer serves as a liaison between researchers, pharmaceutical companies, and the broader medical community. Different skill sets are required when you’re writing for a layman compared to a healthcare professional to make them understand some technical terms. The differences are mentioned below in the table.

On the other hand, when we craft professional documents for the stakeholders or regulatory agencies, we first prepare the templates having a certain style guide, and professional tone. The same document undergoes multiple quality check approvals so that not a single misplaced comma or ambiguous phrases can lead to any misunderstanding, that could compromise patient safety.

Some forms of professional medical writing include Clinical Report Writing, Regulatory writing, Scientific writing, Medical Education Writing, Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR) Writing, Grant Writing, Medico-Marketing Writing, Technical Writing for Medical Devices, Editorial Services for journal publications, conference materials, poster presentations and so on.

Why Mastering Medical Writing is Crucial for Pharma Industry Success?

Failure to effectively communicate in above mentioned high-stakes documents can delay regulatory approvals, potentially leading to financial losses, wasted time, and reputational damage of the involved parties in the healthcare industry. Mastering medical writing is, therefore, an indispensable skill for anyone working in the pharma industry or about to enter the healthcare documentation writing services to ensure that no document gets stalled between agencies and research organizations.

I’m too weak for goodreads, but I did set myself a soft goal of reading at least 1 book a month this year, so I might as well share whether I liked it or not.

I just finished re-reading Stolen Focus by Johann Hari (the irony is not lost on me). It’s a topic near and dear to my heart as I have famously flunked out of school four years in because I stopped going. Whether ADHD was the culprit here is subject of some debate in academic circles to this day, but whatever.

If you go into it with the expectation of being a how-to practical guide on improving your attention, you would be disappointed. It’s also not an exhaustive medical tractate on the nature of attention deficit itself, but more of a thinkpiece about whether or not we can help ourselves. It is a nice meditation on the topic that is not too preachy (most of the time) and hits the issue from multiple angles. I didn’t care for some of the anecdotes the author added, like the infamous Las Vegas vagrant eating rotten food (you had to be there), but on the whole it was a fairly balanced look from a layman who did his due diligence and hit up basically every expert in the field who was willing to talk to him. The merit of such method is to be determined, but for an attention span frayed by Big Phone, it’s a comfortably engaging read that doesn’t overstay its welcome. It did make me ravenously nostalgic for my own latchkey childhood, so if you also were gone from the house from dawn till dusk, only making a rare appearance to drink water and pee, be ready to tackle those feelings.

Tips for Choosing an Electric Mechanic Near Me: A Comprehensive Guide

Finding a reliable electric mechanic near you can be a daunting task, especially with so many options available. The decision requires careful consideration of several factors to ensure that you entrust your vehicle to capable hands. This blog will guide you through essential tips to help you make an informed choice, so you can have confidence in the services you select.

Start by considering the qualifications and certifications of the electric mechanic. Mechanics who are ASE (Automotive Service Excellence) certified or possess equivalent credentials demonstrate their commitment to upholding industry standards. These qualifications often indicate that the mechanic has undergone rigorous training and testing to stay updated on the latest electric vehicle technologies. Taking this step ensures your car will be handled by knowledgeable professionals.

Another key factor is experience. While certifications highlight technical skills, hands-on experience adds depth to a mechanic's expertise. Look for a shop or individual mechanic with a proven track record of working on electric vehicles (EVs). Reviews, recommendations, or even direct inquiries about the type of EVs they have serviced can provide valuable insights into their capabilities.

Location and convenience also play a crucial role in your decision. Opting for a nearby mechanic can save you time and reduce transportation costs. Many local mechanics offer complimentary towing or shuttle services, which can be a bonus if your car needs extensive repairs. Do not underestimate the importance of proximity when emergencies arise, as quick access can save you from unnecessary stress.

Pricing transparency is another vital consideration. A reputable electric mechanic will provide detailed estimates before beginning any work. Be wary of shops that hesitate to give clear pricing or fail to explain the breakdown of costs. Comparing quotes from multiple mechanics can help you identify fair pricing without compromising on service quality. Remember, the cheapest option is not always the best; prioritize value over cost.

Customer service and communication are equally important. A good mechanic takes the time to explain the issue with your vehicle and the proposed solution in layman’s terms. Pay attention to how they handle your questions and concerns during your initial consultation. Friendly, professional interactions can indicate a mechanic who values customer satisfaction and is likely to provide a positive service experience.

Another useful tip is to check for warranties and guarantees. Reliable mechanics often back their work with a warranty, giving you peace of mind in case an issue arises after repairs. This shows confidence in their skills and a commitment to long-term customer relationships. Always inquire about the specifics of their warranty policy before agreeing to any repairs.

Lastly, do not overlook online reviews and recommendations from your community. Websites like Google Reviews, Yelp, and even local forums can offer firsthand accounts of other customers’ experiences. Pay attention to recurring themes in reviews, such as punctuality, professionalism, or quality of service. Personal recommendations from friends or family members can also provide trusted guidance in making your decision.

By following these tips, you will be better equipped to find a trustworthy electric mechanic near you. The effort you put into researching and evaluating your options will pay off in the form of reliable repairs and a well-maintained vehicle. Choosing the right professional ensures your electric car remains in top condition while giving you peace of mind on the road.

FAQs:

How do I know if an electric mechanic is qualified?

Look for certifications like ASE or equivalent credentials, which indicate formal training and expertise in electric vehicle repair.

Why is experience important when choosing an electric mechanic?

Experience ensures the mechanic is familiar with the complexities of electric vehicles and can handle various issues effectively.

Should I prioritize location when selecting an electric mechanic?

Yes, a nearby mechanic can save you time and provide convenience, especially during emergencies.

How can I find a reliable mechanic through reviews?

Check platforms like Google Reviews or Yelp for consistent feedback about the mechanic’s professionalism, quality of work, and punctuality.

What should I ask about warranties before agreeing to repairs? Inquire about the duration, coverage, and terms of the warranty to ensure you are protected against potential issues after the service.
