FLAWED, SCANDALOUS TRIALS TANK FDA EXPERT SUPPORT FOR MDMA THERAPY (4
MINUTE READ) [8]

Advisors for the Food and Drug Administration have voted
overwhelmingly against approving MDMA as part of a therapy for
post-traumatic stress disorder. While results from clinical trials
showed positive results, a deeper look at the data uncovered a large
number of trial flaws that threw the validity of the positive results
into serious question. The FDA is conducting an investigation into
accusations of possible data manipulation during the trials. There
were claims that some of the trial participants were discouraged from
reporting negative responses to the therapy.

`EXTREMELY IMPRESSIVE': MELANOMA JAB TRIAL RESULTS EXCITE DOCTORS
(3 MINUTE READ) [9]

A mRNA cancer vaccine for melanoma halves the risk of patients dying
or the disease returning after three years. The vaccine is
custom-built for each patient and specific to each patient's tumor.
The average risk of recurrence for the type of advanced cancer the
study focused on is 50%, but the vaccine brought the risk of
recurrence down to 25%. The data from the study suggests that levels
of cancer relapse did not increase in people with high-risk,
advanced-stage melanoma.

SKIP SDKS IN SIMPLE INTEGRATIONS (4 MINUTE READ) [12]

SDKs are not always beneficial and can complicate the development
process. They often organize API interactions differently to how
developers want them, have hidden complexities, use outdated
dependencies, and have learning overhead. Using direct API calls
allows for offline development, custom typing information, and easier
swapping of vendors. SDKs can still be useful for deep integration
with a service, but for simple API integrations, they introduce too
much unnecessary bloat and cognitive overhead.

INBOX TEN (7 MINUTE READ) [15]

This post presents tips on how to stay up to date on information and
how to maintain an information ecosystem. Your ability to be effective
is a function of your ability to efficiently ingest the information
around you. Stay informed and advance your own work while also keeping
others informed so they can do the same. One of the most important
tools to use is to just decline to engage - don't let things linger or
get talked into work you don't think is a good use of your time.
