Link. MF is just terrible.

Link. There is no hope of significantly slowing AI development.

Link. Surgery + Paclitaxel + CD47 antibody + cavity filling gel. Many years from human trials but I don’t think we’ve had anything this promising before. I’ve lost 3 friends to glioma.

Link. Dramatic improvements in clinical trials.

Link. Nothing showed on MRI but her relative recovery argues against a coincident dementing disorder. Hope she gets entered into a registry/study.

Link. Awesome story.

Link. My Airbnb experiences have been fun. But I have weird ideas of fun.

Link. Augments neural networks.

Link. Evolution scrounges.

Link. “familial clonal hematopoiesis syndrome that was associated with a range of benign and malignant solid neoplasms. The risk of these phenotypes was mediated by extended cellular longevity”. Trade longer cell life for higher neoplastic risks; this is something that was widely expected.

Link. America: “… we have a huge industry that provides all sorts of pills, extracts, creams and what have you, things that all of that industry’s customers treat as medical substances, but which don’t really have to show evidence safety or efficacy before being sold.”

We should study telomeres in dogs.

Link. Google has Muskitis. This time attacking Opera/Vivaldi. Perhaps Google fears their core business is dying.

Link. Pre-COVID. Some might be better insurance. Paywalled so can’t see details. Deserves better coverage and I hate medical journal paywalls.

Link. Thank you MJ Tsai! This has been a problem for me for over 10 years, but I thought it was uncommon. Turns out it’s common amongst Mac geeks. So many problems. Most recently … https://bit.ly/422Wskf

Link. No web views, calendar has a feed. Our mountain bike trail group is using it.

That’s the fatal flaw.
