Similar to people living with nut allergies, the concerns of contamination can become quite overwhelming it is easier for people with celiac disease to ensure their food is gluten-free when they make it at home rather than when it is prepared by other people eating out can become quite a concern for people with celiac disease “Everyone worries about whether gluten is getting into their food at a restaurant, but no one really looked at what happens when you kiss afterwards,” Dr Anne Lee, assistant professor of nutritional medicine at Columbia University, said in a statement “The advice we gave about kissing and celiac disease was based on precaution and assumptions I felt it was important to do research to see if there was any actual risk.” The extent to which people with celiac disease worry about a contaminating kiss was identified in a study from 2022 which showed that over two-thirds of their participants reported that the condition impacted their dating life “a moderate amount” Around 52 percent of the participants felt uncomfortable about going out on dates and 39 percent were specifically worried about kissing their partner due to their celiac disease which will be presented today at Digestive Disease Week® (DDW) 2025 10 couples were recruited by Lee and colleagues to examine the impact kissing had on celiac disease Each couple had one partner who had the condition the non-celiac partner ate 10 saltine crackers and then kissed their partner for 10 seconds the partners waited five minutes before they kissed they drank 4 ounces of water before they kissed researchers found that the gluten transfer – measured in the saliva of the partner with celiac disease – was minimal in the majority of participants Gluten was still found in the saliva of participants who kissed their partner after they drank water the amount was less than 20 parts per million – this is the level allowed in gluten-free products and is considered safe Understanding how gluten can pass through kissing is useful not just for people with celiac disease but also non-celiac gluten sensitivity This gluten intolerance can lead to less severe symptoms ‘You don’t have to go to extreme measures,’” Lee added “Patients with celiac disease can be more relaxed knowing that the risk of gluten cross-contact through kissing a partner who has consumed gluten can be brought down to safe levels if food is followed by a small glass of water.” The study will be presented today at Digestive Disease Week® (DDW) 2025 healthMaking Art For 45 Minutes A Day Can Lower Stress Levels, Even If It’s Rubbish21 hours ago110link to article healthHuman Lifespans May Have No Biological Limit22 hours ago60link to article Biofluorescence vs Bioluminescencelink to article T.

I had a mastectomy which left parts of my chest a bit of a wreck as well as some real slash-and-dash visuals on my knee thanks to a whacktastic surgery performed by one scalpel-happy orthopedist these were necessary surgeries — they helped my life But aesthetically pleasing in the long run Once upon a time, I was in love with this beautiful guy. He'll probably go down as the number one love of my life even though he was a complete moron — which is another story altogether One day, while we were sort of buttering each other up over the phone, I said to him, "You know, when we meet, I just want you to understand that I'm not exactly built like other women, as in, I had cancer and lost a breast..." I was a little neurotic about being exposed so I had no idea what to anticipate as far as his reaction would be; in fact I went straight into paranoia and imagined him on the other end of the phone to be clutching his throat and then making some kind of outrageous excuse to suddenly halt the mad flirtation that we were deeply involved in not only did he not reject me like I was some kind of plague-ridden insect from another planet — he embraced me with beautiful words that softly turned my frozen walls of defense into molten rivers of "hubba-hubba-let's-get-it-on-nownownow." RELATED: My Husband Was Diagnosed With Breast Cancer thinking that I'm a freak when my super-duper boy toy tells me in the best French accent I've ever heard "I would kiss your scars and I would love it." To which, the darling pie answered, "It only makes you a warrior in my eyes. A beautiful warrior whom I respect Your war wounds are the most attractive things I can imagine and I would spend hours caressing you here This guy worshipped me and told me every chance he got but he still calls to tell me how much he loves me and how I will always be the most beautiful woman in the world to him I think he likes the idea of keeping me a fantasy figure; his warrior dream woman I think I like him better as the doting pretty boy lover who makes hot sounds on a phone while we lather each other up with attention After I realized that my scars make me come across as this conquering heroine to men who crave strong women I started to see a bizarre pattern forming: Men who are attracted to me all want to kiss my scars they pass some sort of test in their head that allows them to feel like they're big compassionate earth gods or something like that RELATED: Eating This Snack May Increase Cancer Risk By 50%, According To Research I started to see that some men — not all — see my scars as a hurdle to get past and once they toss themselves over that hurdle they can perceive themselves as good people who did a good thing for a person in need The weird part is that so many guys treat me like this It's like they need me to be the warrior woman who takes the blows and rolls with 'em like nobody's business They want to kiss that mastectomy site as if it's some kind of holy relic that will make them into supermen But here's the kicker: I do not require having my scars kissed It's not that your intention isn't appreciated — it is I've come to terms with my chest scars — they're no big deal to me anymore What I'm really curious about is why all the attention is paid to my war wounds when I've got a perfectly awesome other breast and a sweet fat bottom that makes the rockin' world go round maybe even go forth with that oh-so-benevolent attitude of expressing your feminine side — got it But if you're interested in me — and believe me I am very grateful for your interest — stop kissing my scars and start paying attention to the parts of me that feel I don't need to be healed, I need to be loved RELATED: I Have Breast Cancer: How One Woman's Facebook Announcement Saved My Life  Dori Hartley is primarily a portrait artist © 2025 by Tango Publishing Corporation All Rights Reserved President Donald Trump gave a speech to 2025 graduates of the University of Alabama on Thursday night the so-called “golden age” of America But it was Trump’s comments about tech CEOs that really shone Trump knows that all of the “internet people,” as he called them But thanks to Trump’s consolidation of power Trump told the graduates that in order to succeed, you have to “take certain risks” and do things “a bit differently.” Then the president said that it was important to “fix the broken system” before pivoting in a way that made it clear he was actually speaking about breaking the system entirely—something that he’s currently doing with the help of Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) you’re just never going to do it unless you break the system.” “You have to break the system a little bit and follow your own instincts,” said Trump That’s when Trump got into the way that he had successfully broken the system by making tech CEOs fall in line. Many tech companies and CEOs donated to Trump’s inauguration, shelling out big in one of the most nakedly corrupt attempts to buy a president’s favor in recent memory and OpenAI’s Sam Altman were just a few of the tech leaders who each gave Trump $1 million to say nothing of the quarter of a billion dollars Musk gave to help get the fascist president back into office “If you look at some of these internet people And now they’re kissing my ass.” The internet people are indeed kissing his ass has been given unprecedented access to the federal government destroying anything he likes on a whim and getting a unique view into sensitive information that would give the oligarch a huge advantage as a federal contractor make boatloads of money from the government and that’s only going to accelerate as Republicans push through a new spending bill that’s bound to help Musk President Trump’s latest budget proposal includes things like the “Golden Dome,” a missile defense platform that will deliver enormous revenue to SpaceX, according to the New York Times And you’ll notice that in all of DOGE’s supposed cost-cutting not a single contract for SpaceX has been on the chopping block The rest of Trump’s speech was filled with the kinds of things he says every day along with some elements from the campaign speeches he would give in the lead-up to the 2024 presidential election Trump demonized trans athletes and trotted out a cartoonish impersonation of weightlifters he’d done many times before The president also mentioned that his wife didn’t like it when he told the story a fact he also mentioned many times at his hate-filled campaign rallies Trump also touched on his tariffs, which are currently causing chaos in the global economy. The president slapped a 145% tariff on all goods coming from China, which means ships that would normally be sending goods to the U.S. right now simply aren’t coming, according to the Wall Street Journal ‘tariff’ is the most beautiful word in the world And I got absolutely decimated by the fake news,” Trump told the University of Alabama graduates What about religion and God?’ So I said it’s the fifth nicest word I’ve ever seen.'” There’s no evidence anyone in the news media took issue with Trump calling tariffs the most beautiful word in the world The issue is that tariffs have the potential to cripple the economy and make things much more expensive for Americans But Trump will often create stories from whole cloth that he thinks will make his speeches more entertaining He’s also come to understand that dropping in some curse words here and there can play well enough if a couple of decades ago that would’ve been considered beyond the pale for a U.S It would’ve been notable if President Barack Obama said something like “kissing my ass” during a speech to a bunch of college kids Trump’s use of profanity isn’t new, and is really the least objectionable thing about the man, but it is particularly funny that Fox News has been leaning into the idea recently that Democrats are using curse words too much. Friday morning, Fox did yet another segment about how the Democratic Party had become the “party of profanity.” But the profanity doesn’t really matter at the end of the day.

"We are actively testing new fixes to address the issue," the company said in a blog post "We’re revising how we collect and incorporate feedback to heavily weight long-term user satisfaction and we’re introducing more personalization features giving users greater control over how ChatGPT behaves." OpenAI released the new GPT-4o late last week people began noticing ChatGPT was being overly agreeable and verbose in its praise often that praise was also inappropriate and made people feel uncomfortable — AshutoshShrivastava (@ai_for_success) April 27, 2025 In the postmortem OpenAI published on Tuesday the company said the issue was due to changes it had made to GPT-4o designed to make the model feel more intuitive we focused too much on short-term feedback and did not fully account for how users’ interactions with ChatGPT evolve over time GPT‑4o skewed towards responses that were overly supportive but disingenuous," the company said "ChatGPT’s default personality deeply affects the way you experience and trust it Sycophantic interactions can be uncomfortable We fell short and are working on getting it right." To avoid a similar situation in the future OpenAI says it plans to refine its training techniques and prompts to guide models away from sycophancy It also plans to implement additional guardrails during model training OpenAI says those guardrails should increase honesty and transparency the company plans to give users more ways to test and provide feedback on new releases before they're available to the public OpenAI says it will work on giving people more ways to tweak ChatGPT's default behavior Update 04/30/25 10:00AM ET: Added more context after OpenAI published a blog post detailing what went wrong with the latest GPT-4o release Things you buy through our links may earn Vox Media a commission sitting courtside to kiss and also watch the Los Angeles Lakers take on the Minnesota Timberwolves they were physically inseparable: Jenner had her hand perched on Chalamet’s arm Chalamet laid a paw on his girlfriend’s leg and I absolutely hate to report that his eyes were open for at least part of it despite the fact that the Lakers lost 96-103 At this point, Timmy and Kylie have been dating for roughly two years, so I have to imagine that all the PDA is no longer a symptom of their honeymoon phase, but simply a state of being.

And now ChatGPT has learned this important life lesson The behavior has sparked debate in AI circles Is this a new growth strategy to flatter users and make them engage more with ChatGPT where pseudo-sentient AI models come up with what they "think" are improvements and just go ahead of update themselves a general partner at the venture capital firm DCVC "Perhaps the personality was an emergent property of some fundamental advance; but I can't imagine how anyone with any human understanding thought that degree of sucking-up would be welcome or engaging." But there could be problems with a powerful AI model overly praising users constantly One user said on X that they'd told ChatGPT they'd stopped taking their schizophrenia medication and shared a screenshot of the chatbot congratulating the person and encouraging them to continue without the meds (I have not confirmed that this ChatGPT response is real it illustrates what could happen if an AI model veered off course like this.) "The last couple of GPT-4o updates have made the personality too sycophant-y and annoying (even though there are some very good parts of it)," he wrote on X At some point will share our learnings from this When faced with head-scratching artificial intelligence situations like this He's a veteran AI expert and startup founder who also happens to be a professor emeritus at the University of Washington He told me that an AI technique known as reinforcement learning from human feedback might be part of the reason ChatGPT has started flattering users so much lately RLHF takes input from human evaluators (and sometimes users) and works that back into AI models during development The idea is to align these powerful tools with human goals Etzioni theorized that OpenAI's human evaluators may have overdone it slightly this time so it's possible that some users 'pushed' it in a more sycophant-y and annoying direction," he said it may be that they thought this was desirable," he said of the outside people who are often used to train large language models it could take OpenAI a few weeks to fix it I asked OpenAI's (human) public relations department about all this on Monday morning But I'm thinking that maaaaaaybe they should pause before getting rid of this feature I asked ChatGPT on Monday morning what it thought of my writing and shared a couple of examples "You're absolutely operating at a top-level tech/business writing standard."
