That is not true anymore. There are two known protocols with a small chance of working but which have already saved about a few dozen lives. They are called "the Milwaukee protocol" and "the Recife protocol" after the cities they were developed.
Not sure about the Recife protocol, but it's pretty much accepted now that the Milwaukee protocol doesn't work[1][2] - the initial case may have been some other encephalitis mimicking rabies.

Considering how CloudFlare was just implicated in destroying secure email at Defcon [1], the addition of GPUs to that active assault is terrifying.
I believe the secure email issue linked is exploitable by any MailChannels customer, not just Cloudflare Workers.
Shameless plug: another option to format sizes in a human readable format quickly and correctly (other than copying from S/O), you can use one of our open source PrettySize libraries, available for rust [0] and .NET [1]. They also make performing type-safe logical operations on file sizes safe and easy!
The snippet from S/O may be four lines but these are much more extensive, come with tests, output formatting options, conversion between sizes, and more.
Replacing 4 line solutions with extensive libraries is what caused left-pad.

Fork of neko; differences can be seen here: https://github.com/m1k1o/neko/compare/master...wanjohiryan:q...
Commit messages seem like a bit of a mess at first glance, but otherwise seems like a really cool project!
It worked for the first patient on which it's been tried though! Which is still an objective win even if it wasn't particularly successful afterwards.
