Let's talk about #CognitiveBiases and #denial of reality as a cause of #CivilizationCollapse.

Civilization collapse is a phenomenon that occurs when a complex human society disintegrates and loses its cohesion, identity, and functionality. There are many possible causes of

civilization collapse, such as natural disasters, war, famine, disease, trade disruption, resource depletion, and social inequality. However, one factor that is often overlooked or underestimated is the role of human psychology in shaping our perception and response to these

challenges. In this thread, I will argue that cognitive biases and denial of reality are significant contributors to civilization #collapse because they #impair our ability to recognize, understand, and solve the problems that threaten our existence.

Common Medical #Prescription #Errors

1. Medical errors are unfortunately common, and they can cause patient harm as well as increased healthcare costs. The idea of this post is not to find fault but to caution healthcare professionals (HCPs) so that these errors can be reduced.
2. In an Indian study, out of the total 24,572 medication orders in ICU, 2,624 had prescription errors (PEs), an error rate of 10.7%.
7.2% PEs did not result in patient harm and 3.5% PEs required interventions and/or resulted in patient harm.

3. In Emergency department setting, the prescription error rate was 16.5%. Ref: doi.org/10.1016/j.ajem…

"1 Introduction
A locally testable code (LTC) is an #ErrorCorrectingCode that has a property-tester. The tester reads 𝑞 bits (randomly - but not necessarily uniformly chosen) from a given word, and rejects words with probability proportional to

A random code has, with high probability, constant rate and distance, but locality that is proportional to the length. This is true even for random #LDPC codes [BHR05], and
