 - [Depression as a Functional Signal  | Hans Schroder  | Evolving Psychiatry Podcast #31 - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgppkCeq2ww) #depression #evo-psych #evolution - Dr. Schroeder's research focuses on how mental health conditions like depression and anxiety can be seen as "functional signals" rather than as disorders stemming solely from genetic or biochemical origins. This approach may shift both self-perception and treatment outcomes, encouraging a view of mental health challenges as potentially useful signals indicating unmet needs or life changes.

-- [Why Chinese migrants are crossing dangerous jungle to reach America](https://www.economist.com/podcasts/2024/10/08/why-chinese-migrants-are-crossing-dangerous-jungle-to-reach-america) #china #migrants - Honestly kinda blown away by this podcast. I couldn't have imagined that among migrants try to make their way to the US from the south, there would be a decent number from China. Quoting from the podcast: _This route is taken by many desperate migrants from countries torn apart by war, crime and poverty. But in the last few years, more and more Chinese people have been taking this route to reach the U.S. to. Last year there were more than 37,000. That’s nearly ten times more than the year before and 50 times more than the year before that. And that surprised me. Because China is a superpower. It’s the second largest economy in the world. It’s at peace. And it’s strong enough to challenge America for global dominance. I wanted to understand who are these Chinese migrants? What is driving them out of China and what awaits them in America?_
