Wonder how the reverse engineered replacements compare to the original schematics
I think you meant mRNA gene therapy. And despite the many issues with mRNA technology, the linked page specifically mentions covid-19 mRNA injections, which contains instructions for spike protein which causes inflammation which causes or is implicated in many diseases including cancers. Yeah won’t find many doctors stocking their necks out and funding for those type of studies don’t get well funded by the pharmaceutical companies/industry that make those products.
Seems like a good idea! I basically stopped consuming the news for years except for occasional local news. I was much happier. Then around covid, started up again (unfortunately still am… :( ). When your mind is in state of fear/anxiety it impedes your ability to think clearly (or so I believe several studies have indicated). Likely by design? Tried reading various left/right media in multiple countries to get a better picture, but it is very homogeneous. Really, instead of looking at spin, better to see which stories are ignored - especially on “both” sides. But interesting to see the propaganda and what each side/ faction reports and what they don’t. I think most thinking people have given up on the legacy corporate media at this point. Their remaining viewers are dying of old age or are true believers that drank the kool-aid. Oops this went a bit longer than I thought, apologies.

TLDR; they built a mouse utopia universe 25 with plenty of food water and space . Eventually some grew violent, others sat and groomed themselves all day, they stopped breeding and died out.

LFS seems to be for people who are interested in how things work. The systemd proponents come off as people who would question why you would want to to drive a manual transmission and say of course you should choose an automatic or better yet, a robot; self driving car. It would be interesting to see how those opinions line up with the uses of AI

A little off-topic/tangential it seems the real discovery or invention was the axle, or probably more specifically the bearing.
One file is great!
Di caprio?

I know a guy who does similar. He gives the messed up parts that got damaged to his dog.

Just stop oil. Just kidding. But maybe we should just get rid of ‘should’.
You’re right “pushed” is the wrong word. “Provoked” (repeatedly, incessantly) would be a more appropriate way to describe the coup and subsequent actions.
Re:Forsp: A Forth+Lisp Hybrid Lambda Calculus Language on Monday June 10, 2024 @09:26PM (#40641284)
Very cool. I like that both lisp and forth were “discovered” and that this cvbp is more fundamental than both(?!). This reminds me of [pdf] https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/181993.181999 and wonder if/how it relates.
I wonder if the headlights attracting bugs might somewhat compensate for the lower traffic. Or they are evolving and bugs. that come out only at night have a survival advantage
I wonder if it is a matter of there simply being more cars on the road - population increase. i.e. fewer bug impact per car. Traffic? Can (higher) velocity have an effect? Off topic: same goes for “power density” in gas vs electric vehicles. What is power density in oxygen free environments like underwater or space?
