In @nature.com "The age at which a person is diagnosed with #autism can be partly explained by genetic factors."
www.nature.com/articles/s41...

@australia.theguardian.com EXPLAINER www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

"‘autism’ has become a ragbag of different conditions.” ~ @utafrith.bsky.social

Polygenic and developmental profiles of autism differ by age at diagnosis - Nature

A study of several longitudinal birth cohorts and cross-sectional cohorts finds only moderate overlap in genetic variants between autism that is diagnosed earlier and that diagnosed later, so they may represent aetiologically different conditions.

It's a while since I quoted my adult friend with #devlangdis, and this is the first time on bsky, 🦋 #bskySPEECHIES.

"I've been working and working and working and getting nowhere for weeks. I feel like Syphilis."

SISYPHUS PUSHING A HUGE BOULDER UP A STEEP, ROCKY MOUNTAIN.

"In Greek mythology, Sisyphus or Sisyphos is the founder and king of Ephyra. He reveals Zeus's abduction of Aegina to the river god Asopus, thereby incurring Zeus's wrath. His subsequent cheating of death earns him eternal punishment in the underworld, once he dies of old age. The gods forced him to roll an immense boulder up a hill only for it to roll back down every time it neared the top, repeating this action for eternity". Wikipedia

Our new study found AI is wreaking havoc on uni assessments. Here’s how we should respond

New research argues the problem of AI and assessment is way more difficult than media debates have been making out.
