Is there an open-source alternative that serves the same purpose?
I guess OS seismic Ground-based Nuclear Explosion Monitoring (GNEM) is possible. Here's a high-level pdf slideshow about it and machine-learning processing. [0] Matlab-based MatSeis exists and the code part is FOSS. I guess it would take a moderate amount of software and hardware engineering effort to make a working, turn-key FOSS GNEM seismic detector. It seems prescient given the decline of warhead, missile, and test ban treaties.
Furthermore, in the proliferation arena, it's possible to map breeder reactors to rough regions using terrestrial antineutrino mapping like KamLAND and what was Borexino. These aren't really conducive to open source initiatives because of their civil engineering burdens of scale (unless one has a mine or a missile silo) and so need to be state/academic efforts until some clever engineering might make them possible (don't see how it's possible because of physics) on the surface and at smaller scales.
An important note is to take it in the morning, not at the evening. The article misses it somehow.
Intervention group received a 50 000-unit vitamin D supplement, one in a fortnight for 8 weeks
Not sure what this formula means, but 50,000 IU is way too much for a single dose. 10,000/day is prescribed only to eldery people who have enormous deficiencies on the edge of death, according to my endocrinologist. Check your D levels before eating any supplements.
Do not take more than 100 micrograms (4,000 IU) of vitamin D a day as it could be harmful. This applies to adults, including pregnant and breastfeeding women and the elderly, and children aged 11 to 17 years.
Not true. I am prescribed 50,000 IU once a week by an MD. Apparently I had very low vitamin D, have darker skin, and live in a dark part of the world during winter. Which is more than was used in this experiment.
This is a little bit more truthworthy. But still there is no sources, Just opinions. By sources i mean documents. Legislative documents. They can be interpreted in various ways based on who reads them
