S_0=S
S_{α+1} is S_α minus all its isolated points

then we do some mumble mumble point set topology ergodic theory thing

ok i guess i'd stipulate "only exists an aperiodic tiling" (i think necessary) and "snaps on to a grid" (i suspect unnecessary) here

Show thread

cute
one quote "the tile admits uncountably many tilings": is it even possible to have a set of tiles that aperiodically tile the plane without having uncountably many tilings?

In a new paper, David Smith, Joseph Myers, Chaim Goodman-Strauss and I prove that a polykite that we call "the hat" is an aperiodic monotile, AKA an einstein. We finally got down to 1! arxiv.org/abs/2303.10798 4/6

(note that aiui the risk falls a lot faster than linearly for buproprion)

like the wikipedia says the main scary side effect is a 1% risk of seizures but i feel like we'll probably need like a tenth of the dose they ran the experiment on

and assuming the risk falls linearly we're in buproprion territory here

it appears the internet weirdos have not manage to quite make bicalutamide a thing, tbh i suspect googling around enzalutamide will become a thing when it comes off patent in a few years

getting real tired of the "patient says or does something i don't understand or is atypical in some way" -> "hmm clearly this means they might be confused and aren't really trans" pipeline

Sometimes, a teenager saying they are “space gender” or “raccoon gender” could be a joke. But sometimes, it could be a genuine confusion.

and it appears since then a bunch of studies have come out and WPATH has endorsed the views of the internet weirdos and now thinks 10mg is best

Show thread

ok if ive reconstructed the timeline correctly
it appears i got convinced to do my current dosage of CPA (~12.5mg) in 2019 based on the recommendations of a bunch of internet weirdos when there were no studies of this dosage in trans people? (historically 25-50mg or more)

tbh if i were a patient here id ask them to publicly reveal if i were on the list several years from now, and see if other people were willing to do the same

think you can identify who "isn't really trans"? well we'll see about that
