They have us busy arguing about which wealthy asshole with too much power is better than the other, when in reality they are all fucking garbage that only care about their own nepotistic desires. Stop arguing with one another and start banding together against the govt in general. The primary issue driving inequality is not billionaires vs everyone else, despite modern left rhetoric.

COVxy 07/26/21 11:44:51 PM #9 | Well, this was described back in the time when chemical neurotransmission was first discovered. Dale, with Otto Loewi, were the one's behind the experiments with frog hearts in a vat, discovering "vaggusstoff", which translates to vagus substance, the stuff that comes out of a frogs heart when you stimulate the vagus nerve, which turned out to be acetylcholine. So, it's not like a whole lot was known about the nervous system when this was described. --- =E[(x-E[x])(y-E[y])] |

COVxy 07/26/21 11:02:14 PM #7 | Ruvan22 posted... Was the release at the axon terminals previously conceptualized differently? It's been a while since my neuro class/ looking at Kandle but I thought once the action potential was reached everything fired downstream.. It's just that it could have been than different connections have different neurotransmitter release (which we know does happen, but it's the exception, not the rule). It's also the case, btw, that you can have axon potentials that lead to release at specific terminals and not others. But again this is more rare. --- =E[(x-E[x])(y-E[y])] |

Topic | Have you heard of Dale's law? |
COVxy 07/26/21 9:57:48 PM #1 | While not actually well formalized, the idea is that a neuron releases the same set of neurotransmitters at all of it's axon terminals, regardless of target. It's not 100% true, but it's accurate enough to be useful. Importantly, it's driven a lot of biophysical modeling of the brain forward. Inhibitory cells have inhibitory influence on all their targets, excitatory cells have excitatory influence on all their targets. This leads to different regimes of balance in the brain that allows for different dynamics. Inhibitory/Excitatory balance is a very simple concept in which the excitatory drive is balanced by recurrent inhibition, allowing for different types of dynamics. This concept has also been used to explore abnormal conditions in the brain, such as epilepsy and autism. The more you know! --- =E[(x-E[x])(y-E[y])] |

The article makes it sound like it is handled by a third party analyst, but that police are able to make requests of this analyst and the analyst can change results manually. It's most likely something that doesn't happen often, but the fact that it happens at all throws the whole thing into question Even without any human interaction, it's incredibly important for us to have public records of validation for these types of techniques. --- =E[(x-E[x])(y-E[y])] |
