• MLIS books available digitally?

  Check out https://openlibrary.org. You can search ´library science’, librarian’, etc, and something should come up. Just select the ‘ebooks’ option to search for items within the collection. And you can narrow the search by subject, etc. Source: 6 months ago

• NaNoWriMo: National Novel Writing Month

  Right now I'm in the middle of the chicken and the egg problem where we don't have enough authors cataloging their publications and b/c of that obviously readers are not interested in using the site. I've gone back and forth with taking Open Libray's [0] catalog as that would at least flesh out our collection of books but then I'd have to deal with verifying authors to accounts so they can access their books.... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• YSK: You can access many old and out of print hiking books from the Internet Archive's Open Library

  The Internet Archive runs what they call the Open Library, which is a unique concept on the traditional library. You can sign-up with minimal details and digitally check out many scanned books from libraries all over the world. The only caveat is that almost all of the books are older editions - ones that would be impossible to find locally. It's great if you're looking for old routes, a look back in time, details...

• Searching for a pharmacy book

  I want to clarify that I'm a non-US citizen, so accessing physical copies from US libraries or buying it from Amazon might not be feasible for me. To give you some context, my personal research was guided by the wiki section of r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH (https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/wiki/reading/). I've conducted research using various online resources, including the Ebook & Open Source/Access Libraries... Source: 9 months ago

• Large language models (e.g., ChatGPT) as research assistants

  Yes, the actual results are definitely not as impressive as the overly hyped headlines, but there's still a lot. First off, in terms of research building up on top of it, as of today, Pubmed shows 9,364 articles citing their 2021 paper, and Google Scholar shows 21,719 results as a whole[1], but these include non-biomedical papers (e.g. Applications of similar ML models to other disciplines). As for actual... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• A junk food diet can cause long-term damage to adolescent brains

  An unhealthy diet (i.e., nutrient deficient diet) harms adult brains. Unsurprising. To learn more, search for resources on pubmed. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• A genetically modified bacterium that outcompetes bacteria causing tooth decay

  Any thoughts on these folks (they are your direct competitor)? https://probiorahealth.com/product/probiora/ A decade or so ago, their founder started with genetically modified bacteria that supposedly outcompete wildtype strains. The regulators responded in the only sane way possible, and it didn't go to human trials, from what I can tell. List of publications from their founder:... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Is Füm safe??

  This link is to PubMed, a search engine that indexes published science articles and studies. Although close to some author's names, I tried a quick search of Füm vaping but came up empty. Maybe you'll have better luck. I'd just ask one question. With zero tastebuds inside human lungs, what's the logic of inhaling nicotine-free vapor into your lungs? If going for taste, why not hold the vape in your mouth... Source: 6 months ago
