Paracetamol use during pregnancy not linked to autism, our study of 2.5 million children shows
United States President Donald Trump recently claimed that using the common painkiller acetaminophen (also known as paracetamol and by the brand name Tylenol in the US) during pregnancy is fuelling the rise in autism diagnoses. He then went on to suggest pregnant women should “tough it out” rather than use the common painkiller if they experience fever or pain.This announcement has caused alarm and confusion worldwide. But despite Trump’s claim, there is no strong scientific evidence to back it up. Our study of nearly 2.5 million births in Sweden published in 2024 shows no evidence that acetaminophen use during pregnancy increases a child’s risk of autism. This is the largest study conducted on the subject to date.
To understand whether acetaminophen really poses a risk in pregnancy, we turned to Sweden’s national health registers, which are among the most comprehensive in the world. Our study followed nearly 2.5 million children born between 1995 and 2019, tracking them for up to 26 years.
Using prescription records and interviews that midwives conducted during prenatal visits, we could see which mothers reported using acetaminophen (about 7.5% of pregnancies) and which did not.
We also made sure to account for any variables that may have affected the results of our statistical analysis – including controlling for health factors, such as fever or pain, which would have influenced whether or not a mother used acetaminophen during her pregnancy. This was to ensure a more fair comparison between the two groups.
We then looked at the children’s neurodevelopmental outcomes – specifically whether they were diagnosed with autism, ADHD or an intellectual disability.
The real strength of our study came from being able to compare siblings. This allowed us to compare children born to the same mother, where acetaminophen had been used during one child’s pregnancy but not the other. We compared over 45,000 sibling pairs, where at least one sibling had an autism diagnosis.
This sibling design is powerful because siblings share much of their genetics and family environment. This allows us to tease apart whether the drug itself – rather than underlying family traits or health conditions – is responsible for any apparent risks for neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Algorithmic decision-making is a growing threat to workers.
Bosses are using AI to assess the body language and voice tone of job candidates.
They’re using algorithms to predict when employees are organizing a union or planning to quit.
They’re automating choices about who gets fired.
And these employment algorithms often discriminate based on gender, race, and other protected statuses.
Fortunately, many advocates are resisting.

The funerary monument of Laura Vigo, located in the Monumental Cemetery of Staglieno in Genoa, Italy 🇮🇹
In memory of Laura Vigo who died at the age of nine, the monument by the sculptor Pietro Canonica was completed in 1908.
The monument depicts a babygirl leaning on the circle and seems to hear the words whispered by the three angels outlined in the background in the bas-relief.
The verses in the plaque are taken from a poem by Giosuè Carducci “Funere mersit acrerbo”. Monumental Cemetery of Torino.
The base of the monument often has offerings left by visitors, such as toys and flowers, as seen in the image.

Unexpected Critics of Trump’s Attacks on Wind Energy: Oil Executives
Business leaders and trade organizations have been especially worried by attempts to stop work on wind farms that had already secured federal approval.
What they're afraid of is the broad realization that climate stabilization requires leaving deposits they've already started extracting in the ground. Shutting down already-in-progress projects is something which makes that politically easier going forward.

tonight while half-asleep I thought of a possible set of rules for a card game using the cards in use in a #conworld
I've just realized that the potential maximum score is 20724, and that the game involves counting points at the end to see whether the game¹ has been won.
To be fair, in context card games are usually played mostly by school-age children and are supposed to be at a somewhat useful learning exercise.
But maybe it's a bit too much?
¹ it is a cooperative game, in that place and time they don't do competition if they can avoid it

A pretty cool thing about the Fediverse:
It will still be around in a decade. Even two decades.
Usenet still exists. IRC still exists. Email still exists. When you build platforms on open protocols and standards, it doesn't actually matter what corporations try and do to enshittify it. So long as there are people who are still willing to run instances, and users who still want to talk to one another without going through some corporation's platform, it'll still be here.

Did you know there are two methods currently used to measure "poll error"?
They exist in a sort of unspoken truce. To date, no one knows (or cares) about the fact that they cannot, logically, both be correct. See below.
For a poll that says 40-25, compared to a result of 57.5-42.5, the Spread Method (used in US) would claim ZERO error
But the Proportional Method would claim a massive FOUR POINT ERROR
Which is correct?

The image depicts a group of soldiers in a barren, rocky landscape, likely on a military mission. In the foreground, four soldiers are standing, facing a large, futuristic vehicle with antennas and wheels. They are equipped with helmets, body armor, and backpacks, suggesting a high-tech military setting. The soldiers are holding rifles, indicating a readiness for action. In the background, a larger group of soldiers is gathered around the vehicle, which appears to be a spacecraft or a mobile base. The scene is monochromatic, emphasizing the starkness of the environment and the soldiers' gear. The overall atmosphere is one of anticipation and preparedness, with the soldiers focused on the vehicle and their mission ahead.
