Time to think about going off grid...

So, you're a security conscious gamer. You've got strong passwords, you don't click suspicious links and you're not conned by yet another amazing offer of free bitcoin. But when was the last time you gave thought to the security of your typing? That dastardly AI strikes again. This one is able to listen to your keystrokes and predict what you're typing with 95% accuracy.

The researchers used a MacBook Pro for typing, while recording audio from a nearby iPhone and perhaps most disturbingly, via a Zoom call. So it's not just your own security you'd need to be responsible for. You'll need everyone else on the call to be conscious of it too. Zoom aside, surely such an attack would still need microphone access permissions. So, as long as you're aware of malware and how to avoid it you should be fine, and if not, well, you've probably got more pressing matters to worry about.

Common mental health disorders in adults with inflammatory skin conditions: nationwide population-based matched cohort studies in the UK - BMC MedicineCommon mental health disorders in adults with inflammatory skin conditions: nationwide population-based matched cohort studies in the UK - BMC MedicineBackground Psoriasis and atopic eczema are common inflammatory skin diseases. Existing research has identified increased risks of common mental disorders (anxiety, depression) in people with eczema and psoriasis; however, explanations for the associations remain unclear. We aimed to establish the risk factors for mental illness in those with eczema or psoriasis and identify the population groups most at risk. Methods We used routinely collected data from the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) GOLD. Adults registered with a general practice in CPRD (1997–2019) were eligible for inclusion. Individuals with eczema/psoriasis were matched (age, sex, practice) to up to five adults without eczema/psoriasis. We used Cox regression to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for hazards of anxiety or depression in people with eczema/psoriasis compared to people without. We adjusted for known confounders (deprivation, asthma [eczema], psoriatic arthritis [psoriasis], Charlson comorbidity index, calendar period) and potential mediators (harmful alcohol use, body mass index [BMI], smoking status, and, in eczema only, sleep quality [insomnia diagnoses, specific sleep problem medications] and high-dose oral glucocorticoids). Results We identified two cohorts with and without eczema (1,032,782, matched to 4,990,125 without), and with and without psoriasis (366,884, matched to 1,834,330 without). Sleep quality was imbalanced in the eczema cohorts, twice as many people with eczema had evidence of poor sleep at baseline than those without eczema, including over 20% of those with severe eczema. After adjusting for potential confounders and mediators, eczema and psoriasis were associated with anxiety (adjusted HR [95% CI]: eczema 1.14 [1.13–1.16], psoriasis 1.17 [1.15–1.19]) and depression (adjusted HR [95% CI]: eczema 1.11 [1.1–1.12], psoriasis 1.21 [1.19–1.22]). However, we found evidence that these increased hazards are unlikely to be constant over

Associations Among Menstrual Cycle Length, Coronavirus... : Obstetrics & GynecologyAssociations Among Menstrual Cycle Length, Coronavirus... : Obstetrics & Gynecologyy tracked cycle-length data from users of a period tracker application who also responded to a survey regarding COVID-19 symptoms and vaccination. We restricted our sample to users aged 16–45 years, with normal cycle lengths (24–38 days) and regular tracking behavior during the five cycles around COVID-19 symptoms or vaccination or a similar time period for those experiencing no event (control group). We calculated the within-user change in cycle length (days) from the three consecutive cycles preevent average (either vaccination, disease, or neither; cycles 1–3) to the event (cycle 4) and postevent (cycle 5) cycles. We used mixed-effects models to estimate the age- and country-adjusted difference in change in cycle length across the groups. RESULTS: We included 6,514 users from 110 countries representing 32,570 cycles (COVID-19 symptoms: 1,450; COVID-19 vaccination: 4,643; control: 421). The COVID-19 cohort experienced a 1.45-day adjusted increase in cycle length during cycle 4 (COVID-19) compared with their three preevent cycles (95% CI 0.86–2.04). The vaccinated group experienced a 1.14-day adjusted increase in cycle length during cycle 4 (COVID-19 vaccine) compared with their preevent average (95% CI 0.60–1.69). The control group (neither vaccine nor disease) experienced a 0.68-day decrease (95% CI −1.18 to −0.19) in a similar time period. Post hoc tests showed no significant differences in the magnitude of changes between the COVID-19 and vaccination cohorts. In both cohorts, cycle length changes disappeared in the postevent cycle. CONCLUSION: Experiencing COVID-19 is associated with a small change in cycle length similar to COVID-19 vaccination. These changes resolve quickly within the next cycle....
