Other fun fact, very nearly the only post-neonatal gender-affirming surgery done on anyone is done to remove developing breast tissue in cisgender boys during pubescence. Like over 99% of gender-affirming surgery done before 18 and after infancy.

Research is still in its infancy, but there is already a lot of biology to being trans. Trans women's brain scans, for example, show their brains are physiologically more like cisgender women's brains than men's.

So happens now is this rise measles will also create a rise in all vaccine-preventable illnesses (and other illnesses) b/c everyone who recovers will essentially be reduced to immune system infancy.
It will create a cascade of illnesses, especially in people who will refuse new vaccinations.

We need an updated version of “Mary Did You Know?” but it’s asking Mary Trump is she knew during his infancy that her son would grow up to be one of the most awful human beings to ever walk the earth.

A million years ago in Xmas 1979, gaming was in its infancy. Currys had the Radofin 1292, complete with 60 game cartridge, which would guarantee to make you the coolest kid on the block for a mere £450 in today's money. At least, until the annoying rich kid got an Atari 2600.

The usual counterargument to this is "well it's in its infancy" but AI isn't a new mode of creative expression, it's just remixing stuff. It has the entire corpus of human creativity crammed into the meat grinder, it's regurgitating shit we already know how to do and it can't even do that very well

Mayor Johnston inherited a well assembled transportation plan that was in the infancy of being great. It was a gift from the previous administration. He could have continued and strengthened their policies. Instead he's decided to dismantle. This isn't leadership.

Mayor Johnston, bowing to business interests and wealthy families, is moving Denver’s road safety backwards (Opinion)
During this latest budget crunch, when DOTI staff members were being laid off and safety projects went unfunded, the city found nearly $100,000 to replace a thoroughly vetted design to accommodate …

batteries are also BRAND NEW. they have not really been used at scale since the 90s! this is an industry in its infancy still, and though there's one dominant format, I expect to see some rebellions in the near future - which is good!
This is incredible (good news too): “After a 40% fall in 2024 in battery equipment costs, it’s clear we’re on track for another major fall in 2025…The economics for batteries are unrecognizable, & the industry is only just getting to grips with this new paradigm”

Every special effects blockbuster of the 80s and 90s was using some tech that was in its infancy during its production cycle. Somehow, they generally managed to also be good and often quite memorable for the new things they utilized.

Patently insane take. If I was born any time before MAYBE 1985, I'd have died in infancy like a normal person.

Development of the game started in like 2019-ish I thought? so I could understand them experimenting with it when it was in its infancy but the vague response makes me fear that it's much more recent and a larger amount than they'd want to admit 💀

Thinking of the 1990s, when my mother, Emily Fenichel, got to work with Rob Reiner on early childhood development advocacy. Having grown up in the 1950s, she was so proud to be collaborating with "Carl Reiner's son."

You see... There's a double-edged sword here. Because that original legislation being written in the internet's infancy has very much allowed a huge loophole that got us into the hellscape we're currently occupying.
But we also don't want whatever a Republican majority would push to replace it.

a thing that has begun to fascinate me looking at all of these is that an amateur/naive effort to depict an animal before photography (or when it was in its infancy, i suppose, so animate subjects not common) tends to involve a pretty central focus on the eyes and face

Most people are like water. They don't change course unless they are presented with no other option. If someone has never had to exercise an ounce of creativity or competency to survive because they had enough money to throw at the problem since infancy -
