So people who are born with a sexual desire to hurt small children, not rape but actually torture and mutilate as seen in the “hurt core” community, should be allowed to roam freely? Your opinion is an artifact of convention. How dull... Of

I find it surprising sociopaths are allowed to just be free in society. They invariably are a net loss for society and certainly for anyone who is involved with them. I can’t even imagine how screwed this persons husband would be if this ar

So a single person decides they don’t like my comment and now it’s faded out where nobody will bother reading it. I think it’s important so I am asking for the upvotes to not dip below zero because I would like as many people to read it as

The idea that people are imagining this, as other commenters have put forward, is nonsense. The idea that people are just getting old and drink too much soda isn’t right either although it’s close. The reason why people report similar or ov

They state very bluntly that MS is an autoimmune disease... when did this become clear to mainstream science? I believe it is though, and I also believe that remyelination is always occurring but hampered in MS and even regular people. Taki

So this is it! Bethesda is officially dead. ESO was the early prognosis and 76 was the death rattle. This is the funeral. Morrowind was a masterpiece of a game. Oblivion was amazing. Skyrim was quite special and carried the genre forward bu

Reading the comments it struck me: why is tele operated agricultural robots not a thing? A robot with wheels and an array of cameras and arms. It rolls down the line and remote workers pick the fruit. Maybe even out of country workers being

There should be a paper floating out there about DOI, which is actually the most potent anti inflamatory, more so than Lsd. He has other papers too. Sorry I’m on my phone.

All of the popular psychedelics are extremely potent anti inflammatories, even at sub-psychoactive doses. And the effect lasts for months. And inflammation touches almost every modern illness... so it is a magic bullet. They also cure clust

Ok so I looked it up and it appears that this concept of very thin and light electrodes is basically taking off right now with multiple implementations. In this context, Neuralink is basically competing against other products for a share of

Actually every comment section out there is riddled with this question and it is directly addressed in the video. Perhaps you should watch it...

It’s routine for labs to insert threads into brains? It’s routine for non-rigid, fine threads to be inserted via robot? I’m just being honest, your comment is not very convincing. And it skims over important details like the fact that all e

What an idiot. This has all the hallmarks of being wrong. It’s highly emotional. Lacks specific details. Best of all, it reveals a total lack of understanding of what is going on, which might have something to do with the fact that he freel

I’m not sure how this is possible... I posted the link before your linked post was created... and my post was a dupe of the following post which is also older than your linked post... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=243

This has 200 comments while the unveiling of the first working prototype of neuralink got a grand total of 15 upvotes. Hackernews has officially flatlined.

Wow, you beat me by only a few minutes. At least I get the first comment. In any case, this is momentous. It’s amazing to me how little attention neuralink gets — it’s subreddit is pathetically small. This company/product will be the m

But you’re missing the reality of the situation. Hypothetically cable is better and cheaper but in reality it isn’t because of corruption and the fact that cable has to occupy a physical space which forced the involvement of governments whi

It’s not legit at all. I’ve always been a fan, and all his busted videos in the past featured one very important feature: the violation of thermodynamics. He always showed why a product was physically impossible. But he doesn’t do that with

This guy theorized that autism is caused by a problem with ATP and mitochondria. He did a trial of an old, obscure drug that blocks ATP receptors (for signaling, not metabolism) on young ASD patients and there was noticeable improvement in

What are they even talking about? People can just casually decrypt https now? Isn’t the whole point of https that something like this can’t happen?

What a great article. It points out that the horrifying diseases of that time were rationalized as being bad luck or divine retribution. People didn’t have any particular desire to get to the bottom of it. Germ theory earned its advocates p

You seem personally offended but I believe this is a good reason. We ban all kinds of things. So you think we shouldn’t ban guns? You think we shouldn’t ban any kind of speech, including doxxing and death threats? You think we shouldn’t ban

If country X believes that Facebook is being used as an intelligence or opinion-shaping tool by the United States government then country X would be justified in trying to do something about it, in my opinion. And the loss of Facebook and i

From first principles reasoning, this is a good idea. We don’t ban Chinese websites, books or products. Although we tax their products more now. Apps aren’t like physical commodities. They can be used to gather data, quite invasively, shape
