I came across this song a few hours ago while watching the Netflix series "Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein"; such a beautiful song. I google to check the chords. Ironically, even the songs weren't available that easily. Found it only on Gaana. https://gaana.com/artist/anuj-danait-1

Anuj Danait sounds like a gem. He did most of the songs in the series.

Timi Uta Ma Yeta (Sunsaan Raat Ma) Guitar Chords - Pratik Gurung Cover - Original by Milan Newar, Rajan Raj Shiwakoti

noreply@blogger.com (Amwrit Puri) — Thu, 23 Dec 2021 08:52:00 +0000

I came across this song when Kanden Limbu sang this in Nepal Idol.

He was one of the contestants. I thought it was his original. Surprisingly, it is not. His was based on Pratik Gurung's cover.

This is actually a full fledge song with a music video. Here's the original one.

However, I like the cover version. Here are the chords for a portion of the song. The chords are based on this tutorial. In the tutorial, plucking is used. You can strum as well if that's what you prefer.

CAPO: 2nd fret

STRUMMING: D-DU

Plucking used: 5-2-3 (C and Am), 4-2-3 (FT and GT), 6-2-3 (G)

Chords: C, Am, G Major, F Major Triad (FT), G Major Triad (GT)

NOTE: It's easier if you play G Major in C's original position; just move 2 and 3 fingers one step up.

C Am

(Sunsan raat ma yo mero aatma

FT GT C

Some Days Being Single Sucks.

noreply@blogger.com (Amwrit Puri) — Wed, 07 Jul 2021 02:50:00 +0000

Photo: https://www.redbubble.com/shop/love+being+single+posters

I came across this beautiful article today. I am writing it down here so that some day I will read it again and again and again. Original post here.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

There I said it.

I’m not looking for pity or reassurance that someone will come along. I’m not looking for the sympathy. I’m just stating a fact.

Most days I am quite fine with it. But we all have days where life is just not quite what you thought it would be or should be.

As humans, we long for connection. We were not meant to go it alone. We need that feeling of belonging. We all have connections with others; our family, our kids or our friends. But that connection with someone special is just different.

I have lots of people in my life that love me. I am, indeed, a very lucky person. But some days—sigh—well some days I long for more.

Some days, paying the bills on our own sucks.

Some days another income would be amazing! To have a little extra to play with. For new furniture. Or a trip. Or just something extra without having to worry about it. A joint account where some of your money and some of their money goes in each month to cover the necessities. And then an account of our own, a fun fund.

Some days, trying a new recipe sucks.

No one to have as a guinea pig to try an outlandish recipe on. Cooking for one is difficult. And quite honestly, I dislike it. I hate trying to cut back on a recipe for just one. I always end up with leftovers. And there is no one to tell you it is wonderful or horrible. No one to suggest to just order pizza instead as they attempt to swallow the disaster.

Some days the house is too quiet.

Too much space for thoughts to run free in. There is no one to answer silly questions. No one to listen to me ramble on. No one to roll their eyes over something I may have done or not done, for that matter. No one to yell at to turn down the music. No one to run into when coming around the corner with an arm full of laundry. No one to blame that the kitchen is a disaster.

Some days laundry for one feels like a larger chore than doing it for an entire family.

Throwing in just a few outfits from the week seems like such a waste. There is no one to ask to move the stuff out of the washer into the dryer. No one to help fold it. No one to wonder why the other side of the bed is filled with clean clothes that haven’t been put away.

Some days that bed is just too big.

Its surface area feels like a vast wasteland. No one to cuddle up too. No one to complain about stolen covers. No one to elbow and tell them to stop snoring. Or be elbowed! Those nights when that happens, I have moved out to the couch to sleep. I curl into the cushions. Feeling like I have something to lean on. It doesn’t feel so empty on the couch.

Some days the daily tasks or chores seem overwhelming to do alone.

Run here. Pick up this. Drop off that. No one to call to ask if they could stop and grab the milk that was forgotten. No one to split the chores with. No one to ask for help with those everyday things we do.

No sitting on the couch wondering why we are watching the stupid shows that we do. No getting pissed at someone because they are breathing too loudly or blinking too often. No walking into the kitchen to find dirty dishes in the sink, mere inches from the damn dishwasher.

Some days being single sucks. For all those practical reasons and then there are the other reasons.

No quiet touch from a lover. Not a single word spoken, just “being” with each other.

No gentle brush of a body as we pass in the hall.

No catching someone watching you getting ready in the morning with a silly smile on their face.

No “I’m just thinking of you” texts throughout the day.

No impromptu lunches just because he/she was in the neighborhood.

No flowers sitting on your desk to remind you that you are loved.

No walking through the door at the end of the day knowing that there is someone there that has got your back.

No one to sigh gently at when asked about your day.

No one to give you that hug that says “I’m here” when it feels like the whole world has walked out on you.

No one to curl up to and warm that cold ass on in the bed.

No one to reach out to, in the middle of the night when you wake up with a start.

No one to kill the spiders.

So yes, some—not all, but some days—being single sucks.

14 Stages Of Love According To The Arabic Language

noreply@blogger.com (Amwrit Puri) — Thu, 10 Jun 2021 14:16:00 +0000

https://pngtree.com/freepng/poster-illustration-love-heart-shaped-pink-love_3946415.html

Based on this post, there are 14 stages/degrees of love in the Arabic language.

1. Al-Hawa (Attraction)

Love begins with attraction and lust, which is described in Arabic as "al-hawa". This is when emotions are running high, but they're still indefinite... kinda like when you're swooning over a crush.

2. Al-Sabwa (Amusement)

"Al-sabwa" is derived from the Arabic word الصبا (al-siba), which means boyhood.

This phase depicts the sweet spot before things get real, when two people are enjoying each other's company without putting a label on the relationship. The "flirtationship" hasn't evolved into a legit relationship yet, but it might.

3. Al-Shaghaf (Passion)

This is when feelings of actual love begin to surface and people are basically love-struck.

The Arabic word "al-shaghaf" refers to الشغافة (al-shaghafa), which is the outer layer of the heart.

4. Al-Wajd (Preoccupation)

"Al-wajd" is when you just can't stop thinking of your loved one. You are preoccupied with him/her and want to spend every waking hour with him/her.

5. Al-Kalaf (Infatuation)

"Al-kalaf" refers to a state of powerful longing accompanied by hardships and suffering. This is when people say "I love you so much it hurts" and actually mean it.

6. Al-'Oshok (Adulation)

"Al-oshok" is used to describe the excessive love and profound admiration lovers experience when they become intimately familiar with one-another.

7. Al-Najwa (Heartburn)

Yes... Arab romance is all about pain. "Al-najwa" is when love engulfs one's heart entirely and triggers feelings of sadness.

"Najwa" is derived from the Arabic word النجاة (salvation), as lovers need to be saved from this state of severe heartache.

8. Al-Shawq (Longing)

This is when you feel a deep longing for your lover and a strong attachment to him/her.

9. Al-Wasab (Excruciating pain)

"Al-wasab" translates to pain and illness. In this stage, love is just not healthy. There is so much pain and suffering, it's the stuff for epic love poems.

10. Al-Istikana (Submissiveness)

I repeat: NOT HEALTHY!

This is the state of humiliating and blind submission we often see in detrimental relationships.

11. Al-Wodd (Friendliness)

Couples who have reached this degree of love are #relationshipgoals. They are not only lovers, but also the best of friends.

"Al-wodd" translates to amiability and friendliness. It is the purest, most selfless and most delicate kind of love.

12. Al-Kholla (Unification)

"Al-kholla" is defined as love and friendship that are ingrained deep in the heart.

In this stage, you believe that your lover is "the one" and that you will never find a more perfect match (#soulmates).

13. Al-Gharam (Fervour)

"Al-gharam" is defined as attachment to something and not being able to let go of it. This is when lovers feel like it is impossible to live apart and always find their ways back to each other regardless of the circumstances.

14. Al-Hoyam (Madness)

"Al-hoyam" refers to madness and insanity caused by excessive love. So basically, this is when lovers lose all sense of reason and go absolutely nuts.

A friend shared this Twitter thread which had 12 levels of friendship according to Arabic language. Not endorsing any particular religion. I thought this was pretty interesting to ponder upon. Maybe you can now grade your friendship level and tell, "Hey you are my Sameer, my 3rd level friend." :D

Here are the levels:

1. Zameel - someone you have a nodding acquaintance with

2. Jalees - someone you’re comfortable sitting with for a period of time

3. Sameer - you have good conversation with them

…this is where things get serious

4. Nadeem - a drinking companion (just tea) that you might call when you’re free

5. Sahib - someone who’s concerned for your wellbeing

… now we’re in the real ranks of friendship

6. Rafeeq - someone you can depend upon. You’d probably go on holiday with them

7. Sadeeq - a true friend, someone who doesn’t befriend you for an ulterior motive

8. Khaleel - an intimate friend, someone whose presence makes you happy

9. Anees - someone with whom you’re really comfortable and familiar

10. Najiyy - a confidant, someone you trust deeply

11. Safiyy - your best friend, someone you’ve chosen over other friends

12. Qareen - someone who’s inseparable from you. You know how they think (and vice versa)

This friendship pyramid might be interesting as well.

Maturity? What does it really mean - 'to be/act matured/adult'?

noreply@blogger.com (Amwrit Puri) — Sun, 16 May 2021 14:02:00 +0000

This blog is based on my understanding after reading the book "Everything Is Fucked - A Book About Hope" by Mark Manson.

"Behave like an adult!"

"Why are you acting so immature?"

"Stop being childish. You are an adult. Act like one."

"I thought you were matured than this."

Have you received any of this comments? Have you said these comments to anyone? Also, have you ever said this to yourself?

I have received comments on both sides of it. I have been called 'a matured guy', 'way matured and thoughtful for my age' - when I was in my early 20s, 'understanding'. Ironically, I have been called 'childish', 'immature', 'irresponsible'. You will be surprised, but I also have been called 'girly' and told to 'MAN UP!'.

Being on both sides of the maturity line, I had always been confused. I really didn't understand what 'maturity' meant. Trust me when I say this, I have never called anyone 'matured' or 'immature' for this specific reason - I had no clue what it really meant. So I wouldn't obviously use it on anyone.

I had a feeling, 'maturity' might be subjective and everyone had their own definition of it. Perhaps people expected others to behave in a 'certain way'. Act in that expected way and you are matured or adult for them. Don't act like it and you're immature and acting childish. That's why I rarely cared when people made a comment on me - positive or negative. Since maturity is subjective and based on people's expectations and perception, I wasn't going to act in the way they wanted, right? Well, that's what I believed until now.

And the other thing I was confused (or rather pissed) was when someone says, "You are so childish."

What do they even mean when they say that?

Few inferences can be made based on that statement.

I act like a child.
I don't act like an adult.
Acting like a child is a bad thing.
Acting like an adult is a good thing.

So based on this, we can infer that whatever characteristics that a child has (playful, curious, energetic, innocent etc.) are wrong to have as an adult? Well, I would love to be curious and energetic like a child forever. I wish I had 1% of the curiosity and passion right now that I had as a child.

Maybe people mean to say don't act like little tyrants (children) who cry if they don't get what they want?

Well, people could mean a lot of different things when they make these comments. So much to indulge and analyze for the tiny brain.

And then I came across this interesting idea or opinion or philosophy or whatever you call it regarding maturity when I was reading Mark Manson's 'Everything is Fucked'.

Maturity has nothing to do with age. What matters are a person's intentions - not WHAT they do but WHY they do it.

(Pg 40: Everything is Fucked)

I am not asking you to agree with whatever he says in his book, but for me, this was something to ponder upon. It really helped me in my understanding.

Okay! Let's try to dig in. Based on the examples in the book, I am calling this the 'Ice-cream Theory'.

First, let's categorize a human into three groups: child, adolescent and adult.

Here's a situation: You love ice-cream. There's ice-cream in the freezer. Your mom has asked you not to steal and eat the ice-cream.

Now put yourself as each of the three categories (child, adolescent, adult) and try to imagine what you would do.

Here's what they would (usually) do in such case.

The little kid thinks, "Ice-cream is awesome. I love ice-cream. So, I want ice-cream." The kid goes to the freezer, steals the ice-cream, gobbles on it until he/she is content.

Later, mom finds it. She gets extremely angry and scolds the kid for stealing.
The adolescent thinks, "Ice-cream is awesome. I love ice-cream. But stealing stuff pisses my parents off and I'll get punished."

So based on some previous experiences, the adolescent decides not to steal so as 'not to piss off the parents' and 'not get punished'.
The adult thinks, "Ice-cream is awesome. I love ice-cream. But I know stealing is wrong."

The adult doesn't steal for the simple reason that it is wrong.

This Ice-cream Theory is probably the best analogy by Mark Manson to explain the differences. I simply loved it. If you dwell upon it for a while, I'm pretty sure you'll understand what he is trying to mean from the above statements.

Figure 6.2: Everything is Fucked

From the figure above:

A child thinks only about his/her own pleasure.
The child steals the ice cream because it feels good and he/she is oblivious or indifferent to the consequences (parents angry, punishment etc.).
An adolescent learns to navigate rules and principles to achieve his/her goals.
The adolescent doesn't steal because he/she knows it will create worse consequences (parents angry, punishment etc.) in the future, but his/her decision is ultimately a bargain with his/her future self. "I'll forgo some pleasure now to prevent greater future pain."
An adult is able to eschew his own pleasure for the sake of his/her principles.
The adult doesn't steal for the simple principle that stealing is wrong. And to steal, even if he/she gets away with it, would make him/her feel worse about herself.

My notes...

A child basically has no principle whatsoever and doesn't care (know) about the consequences of his/her action. He/she just knows what pleases him/her and will want it anyhow.

A child doesn't care about honesty. He/she just wants his/her fucking ice-cream. That's it!
An adolescent has principles. But these principles revolve around maximizing pleasure and minimizing pain. Everything he/she does (based on his principles) is a calculated transaction, a bargain made out of fear of the negative consequences. Everything is a means to some pleasurable end.

An adolescent understands honesty. He/she will be honest because it's seen as a trade off. Between not being honest and getting fired from a job, the adolescent will make a calculation and choose being honest. So the adolescent is using honesty as a means to his/her pleasure.

An adolescent will stay that he/she values honesty only because she has learned that saying so produces good results. But when confronted with difficult conversations, he/she will tell white lies, exaggerate the truth and become passive-aggressive.
An adult has unconditional principles - that they can't be reached through any other means. They are ends in and of themselves.

An adult understands that honesty is right and good for its own sake. Even if it hurts you today, even if it hurts others, being honest is still the right thing to do.

An adult will be honest for the simple sake that honesty is more important than her own pleasure or pain.

I hope you got confused. Haha! Go through it again. Reading the second time makes everything clearer (I think).

Here's one more idea from the same book about this. This is more from the happiness and pain of life perspective. It's a whole new chapter in the book. So I am not going into its detail here. To summarize, the books says that our pursuit of happiness is the root cause of our expectations and hope. Everything is fucked up because we try to find happiness by avoiding pain. The pursuit of happiness leads us towards incessant and intolerant desire for something more. And that makes our life miserable. The core idea here is: "Pain is the universal constant of life."

That means, we should not try to avoid pain, rather embrace it, make our pain meaningful. We just need to be able to choose what pain we bring into our life. The pain is always going to be there, so let's rather suffer for the right pains.

Now, based on this perspective of PAIN and HAPPINESS, let's dig into the child, adolescent, adult thing again.

Children have a low tolerance for pain because the child's entire ethos revolves around the avoidance of pain.
For the child, a failure to avoid pain is a failure to find meaning of purpose.

Childish values are fragile. The moment that ice-cream is gone, existential crisis sets in.
The adolescents has a higher pain threshold because the adolescent understand that pain is often a necessary trade-off to achieve his/her goals - endure pain for some sort of future benefits.
"I will suffer through school so I can have a good career. I will deal with my obnoxious boss to get a promotion."

The problem arises when the adolescent feels that he got a bad bargain when the pain exceeds his expectations and the rewards don't live up to the hype. "I sacrificed so much and got so little back! What was the point?"

Adolescent values are more robust because they include the necessity of pain, but they are still susceptible to unexpected and/or tragic events since pain is taken as a bargain for some benefits. If the benefit is not there or not as expected, values break down.
The adult has an incredibly high threshold for pain because the adult understands that life, in order to be meaningful, requires pain, that nothing can or necessarily should be controlled or bargained for, that you can simple do the best you can do, regardless of the consequences.

Truly adult values are antifragile: they benefit from the unexpected. The more fucked up a relationship gets, the more useful honesty becomes. The more terrifying the world is, the more important it is to summon up the courage to face it. The more confusing life becomes, the more valuable it is to adopt humility.

That's a lot of ideas and opinions to process. Honestly, since I came across this, I am still processing. I am trying to relate all these ideas to my life, the decisions I have made so far to understand where I fall.

In my opinion, instead of categorizing yourself if you are still a child-adult or an adolescent or (luckily) an adult, we should embrace the fact that we are in a process of growing up. We need to understand that we all are born a child and where we go from there, how we grow up, how much time it takes is entirely upon us.

This is for sure going to help me in understanding my values and finding my True North. I hope it helps you too. Or at least, next time some one calls you immature, you have some fancy philosophy to tell. Haha!

Cheers!

Here's what seems like a maturity table from the book to ponder upon. :D

COPY/PASTE a Preeti Font text in Google Docs

noreply@blogger.com (Amwrit Puri) — Wed, 12 May 2021 08:31:00 +0000

Have you come across a situation where you have a .pdf or .docx or an .odt or any word file with text in Preeti font and then you have to open the file or copy the texts in Google Docs?

This is a very complicated use case to explain actually. I have come across this situation multiple times. You might have as well. I have explained the process to few other random people in Facebook groups. So today, when a very lovely friend 💗 of mine was trying to copy some text in Preeti font into Google Docs, she asked me for help. And being an equally lovely and helpful friend 😎 , I guided her.

This made me think writing a blog explaining the process so that next time when I come across this problem or someone else asks me for help, I can just send the blog. Better no? Plus, honestly, I myself am going to be confused about this process after a few months. So as a reminder to myself as well.

So here are the simple steps:

Below is an example of a Preeti font in a .pdf file.
If I open the above .pdf file in a Google Doc or copy the text into Google Doc, I get the following; some stupid unreadable English alphabets. That's basically just Nepali Unicode. Now, let's see how we can make it readable in Nepali.
First COPY the text that you want to convert. I am using 'l;kmfl/z' as an example here.
Go to this link. https://www.ashesh.com.np/unicode-preeti/
If you don't have Preeti font installed in your computer, make sure you install it. You can download from here.
In the website of UNICODE TO PREETI, paste the text copied before ('l;kmfl/z') in the first box.
Click on 'Click here to convert to Preeti font'.

You will see the correct text 'सिफारिस' now. Copy this text.
Now we will convert the Preeti font back to Nepali Unicode to be used in Google Docs. Go to this link: https://www.ashesh.com.np/preeti-unicode/
In the PREETI TO UNICODE website, paste the previously copied text from second box of previous website ('सिफारिस') and paste in the first box of the second website. Note the colors in two different website if you are confused.
Click on "Click here to convert nepali unicode".
Congratulations! You made it. Woo-hoo!!! 🎉🥳 Now you can just copy the text from the second box and paste it into a Google Doc.
In the screenshot below from a Google Doc, notice the previous text 'l;kmfl/z' replaced by correct Nepali word 'सिफारिश'?

NOTES:

1. If you are copying the text (e.g. सिफारिश ) from a .pdf file, you can skip to STEP 8 directly.

2. There might be other ways of doing it, I am pretty sure. This looks like a tedious process, honestly. Let me know if you know of any other ways.

3. Thanks to Ashesh for creating this awesome tool. It's been almost a decade since I have been using it. :)

Badal Bani Aayeu Re Guitar Chords || Darwin Lungeli

This song started coming up in my Instagram Explore feed since few days. Looks like the singer has been paying all the Instagram accounts with good followers number to boost his song.

At first, I didn't really give much time to the song. The melody was good, I must say. Later I listened the first verse properly and liked the lyrics. The song is quite short actually - just few verses.

I wanted to try playing the song but couldn't find the chords, of course, since this is a fairly new song. So I had to use https://chordify.net/ to get chords from the video. Chordify isn't absolutely correct, but works good enough for me. The chords here are based on what was generated by Chordify. I am not a pro and can't perfect it. If you are good at it, please let me know.

XPS 13 9360 | Certain keys not working on the keyboard [SOLVED]

noreply@blogger.com (Amwrit Puri) — Thu, 28 Jan 2021 04:52:00 +0000

Photo: laptopmag.com

I came across this issue few week backs while delivering my class. Usually, my laptop is connected to a projector through a USB-C hub and a mouse when I am in my class. One day, I realized the 'I' key wasn't working properly. I could type 'i' only if I hit the key a little harder. I assumed it was due to the projector being connected or the mouse of the USB driver not connecting properly.

When I'm working at home, the laptop is connected to a LCD Monitor via USB-C hub, a mouse and an external keyboard. I didn't realize the issue at home because I am pretty much using my external keyboard. Two days back, I was typing without the external keyboard and faced the 'I' key not working issue.

This time, it seemed permanent. Applying more force to the key didn't work either. I cleaned the keyboard slots with a brush too. Didn't work. So I took onto Google to see if there could be any solutions though I had assumed it was a hardware failure and will have to replace the keyboard itself.

One of my previous colleagues had the same model of Dell and came across similar problem. I thought this was a model specific thing. I was pretty much sure that I was doomed. Nevertheless, I wanted to take a chance at googling.

Read two pages in the official Dell support community.

Re: XPS 13 Keyboard Not Working
the following steps fixed the issue for me:
- Shutdown the computer.
- Keep Fn key pressed and press the On key. Turn the computer on; Keep the Fn key pressed.
- Let it run the test. If aok (my note: all okay), move ahead and restart the computer.
- Keep F2 key pressed during reboot.
- Goto the Exit menu and select 'Load default setp config'
- Save and exit and reboot.

1. I restarted the computer.

2. I kept on pressing Fn key on reboot till it started some diagnostic thingy.

3. Restarted the computer again. Kept pressing F2 key until another diagnostic thingy started.

4. When it completed, I just EXIT.

5. There was no ' 'Load default setup config' as mentioned in the solution above. However, when I restarted the laptop, the key was working fine.

I hope this works for you as well. :)

UPDATE: The key stopped working AGAIN. Worked again when I repeated the same whole process. Ugh! Next morning, didn't work again. Shyat!

Association is not the same as Causation

This post is my reaction after coming across the two terms "association" and "causation" while reading a paper on High Cost of Not Educating Girls.

"In virtually all cases, estimates of the potential impacts of low educational attainment for girls – or equivalently of gains associated with higher educational attainment as captured by secondary education, are large. As documented in more detailed in the study, most gains are associated with secondary as opposed to primary education. It should again be emphasized that what is measured is associations, not necessarily causal impacts."

(HighCostOfNotEducatingGirls, WorldBank as seen on Sep 12, 2020)

Since I don't have a research background and didn't have to do any kind of research in my undergrad study, I wasn't familiar to these terms. And I wasn't getting what that statement was trying to say. And thus I ended up doing a quick google search trying to understand the difference. I wasn't disappointed. But yes, confused definitely.

I am not sure I fully understand what is the difference. I make no claims whatsoever of what I am trying to explain is correct or near to it. PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG. :)

Let's take this picture as a reference. (Also, correlation and association aren't same things. Correlation measures a specific form of association. So for my easy understand for now, I'm assuming correlation in the above picture as association.)

Let's have some statements:

1. In summer weather, it is dry, hot and sunny. That 'causes' the ice-cream to melt. Is this true?

2. In summer weather, it is dry, hot and sunny. That 'causes' people to get sunburns. Is this true?

In the first statement, I can confidently say it's true. Because it's pretty sure that the heat will cause ice-cream to melt. Right?

The second statement is definitely true too. Sunburn is a reaction of the body to direct DNA damage from UVB (Ultraviolet B) light either from the sun or from artificial sources. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunburn)

In both the statements, we can say with reasonable certainty that there is indeed a 'causative link' between the two factors i.e. between sun and ice-cream / sunburn. This is causation.

Causation means that one variable produces the effect in the other variable.

Now in the same example, let's say we find a statistical relationship between ice-cream and sunburn. For example- "The number of ice-cream melted during the summer correlated with the number of people get sunburns during summer."

Now, can we say that "eating ice-cream 'causes' sunburns" or "getting sunburns 'causes' the ice-cream to melt"?

Doesn't that sound funny and absurd? It does, because there is no 'causal relationship/link' between ice-cream and sunburns. It is mere correlation and association.

Association is a statistical relationship between two variables.

Let's see some more examples.

1. It has been convincingly demonstrated that people of lower socioeconomic status (SES) have a higher risk of lung cancer, i.e., there is a clear association, but does that mean that low SES is a cause of lung cancer? A more plausible explanation is that people of lower SES are more likely to smoke and to be chronically exposed to air pollution and that exposure of the respiratory tract to these contaminants causes mutations in bronchial cells that can eventually produce a cancer.

2. Jewish women have a higher risk of breast cancer, while Mormons have a lower risk. However, one's religion is not a cause of breast cancer. There are other explanations. So we can't say ,"Being a Jew woman causes breast cancer."

3. In 1997, a very large population study looking at alcohol consumption and death rates (amongst other variables) was published by the New England Journal of Medicine [4]. It showed very clearly that moderate levels of drinking (between 1-2 drinks per day) was associated with a decrease in death rates from all causes, particularly from cardiovascular disease, even compared to people who don’t drink at all. There is undeniably an association in their results, but we cannot say with certainty that the alcohol itself caused the increase in life expectancy. This is because there may well be other factors involved that explain the difference. For instance, what if people who have a drink a day are more relaxed? There is an association between stress and increased risk of cardiovascular disease, and the result could have been caused by this. Another possible explanation is increased social interaction in people who drink moderately, as loneliness may also be associated with shorter life expectancy [5].

From this, what we can say is, having an association between two things doesn't mean there is necessarily a causation in the two factors.

Okay, got it. But what do I do now with this information? Let's look at another example. I love this one.

Suppose a study finds an association between paternal silk tie ownership and infant mortality. Based on this study, the government implements a program in which 5 silk ties are given to all men aged 18–45 with a view to reducing infant mortality. We would all agree that this is madness. This is because we understand the difference between association and causation.

Got it? Understanding the difference between association and causation helps us make decisions.

Let me try to connect to the current COVID pandemic situation.

Let's say a study finds that a 'turmeric related treatment' is associated with better outcomes for COVID patients.

Now can you say that treatment caused COVID patients to be healthier?

The people who seeked and received that treatment may be healthier and have better living conditions than those who did not. Therefore, people receiving the treatment might appear to benefit, but the difference in outcomes could be because they are healthier and have better living conditions. There are dozens of ways in which external factors can influence experimental results, even in a clinical trial.

Disentangling cause from association is a tricky business and it takes a brave person to claim that they can definitively prove one factor causes another.

What you should take away from this is a healthy dose of skepticism. If you come across someone professing that one thing causes the other, assume that they’re wrong until you’re convinced otherwise.

Ask:

Is what you have an association or a cause? How was this investigated?

Was the study an RCT(randomised controlled trial)? How were all other variables kept the same.

When it comes to a treatment, remember that whilst the outcome of a trial may show an association between a treatment and an outcome, the treatment may not necessarily be the cause.

I think this information regrading association and causation is going to be helpful when I read researches which show some kind of relationship between factors.
