Stroke Cure

| life | health | medicine |

Following [my stem cell story]https://levlaz.org/13-new-stem-cell-lines-big-news/(https://levlaz.org/13-new-stem-cell-lines-big-news/) this story today on the news gives more hopes to stroke patients. Apparently the stroke can be cured in 5-10 years. Which is simply fascinating.

I really hope this turns out well. My close friend passed away from stroke, and this would prevent further people from having to go through something like that as well.

I remember my first time in a hospital as an observer. It was in 6th grade and we were in the gifted and talented class, and we went to this hospital in Mt. Airy. I saw a patient who just suffered a stroke and the stroke team was there doing all sorts of tests, and using big words, and they all looked so dedicated, so sure that they could help.

It was an inspiration, I wanted to be like them some day.

Hopefully I will.

The Blandness of Systematic Rules vs. The Delight of Localized Sensitivity

Marcin Wichary brings attention to this lovely dialog in ClarisWorks from 1997: He quips: this breaks the rule of button copy being fully comprehensible without having to read the surrounding strings first, perhaps most well-known as the “avoid «click here»…
