But they also only sold a very small number of shares at that valuation, vs all of them at $20B to Adobe.

This article has a headline engineered with shock value connotations, but when you read it carefully, it takes pains to rein the suggestions of the title in as much as possible while still stirring the pot. It’s a kind of artistry you need to get papers published these days.

All that aside, it’s an interesting thing to think about but it’s not a basis for any kind of personal health recommendation and the authors state that. I have relevant expertise and this is a very complicated area that people routinely want to be boiled down into black and white simple advice. What this article seems to say is that lotion can affect the oxidation chemistry nearby it, but it’s not yet known if that is an effect with consequences that are on the whole negative or positive.

I would criticize the authors for their use of the word disrupt, because of the negative connotation carried by that word when talking about human biological systems. They use a softer, more neutral word, perturb, to express the same idea later in the article, which I think better expresses the idea without an emotional tinge to it.

Someone correct me here, but Texas Instruments was one of the companies that mortgaged their future in the name of financialization (https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/yeah-its-still-water-ben-hunt...) and their market cap right now is ~170B...

How are they going to afford an investment thats ~1/3rd the value of the company? Seems like one of those announcements that no one follows up on to keep them honest?

Fun demo of an early idea was posted by Oriol just yesterday :)

Do we get gut bacteria from the people around us? Where does a newborn get their gut bacteria from?

How would they charge? The watt hours needed to fly a medium sized VTOL uav of any type for any reasonable amount of time can't be collected by the size of pv panel that can be reasonably carried by the same craft. Not unless it sits still for a week in a sunny spot.

>The research team discovered that leukaemia cells feed on taurine through a process called glycolysis, in which cells break down sugar to produce energy.

>This process helps cancer cells multiply more rapidly, worsening the disease.

If I’m reading this right, it doesn’t cause cancer, but if you already have cancer it may make it spread faster.

Even though Israel is our "Ally" -- we really shouldn't trust a foreign company with our sensitive messaging.

If you're in the government, you should treat Hegseth and anyone who uses Signal and TMSIGNL as compromised.

Musk has been talking about integrating Grok into Tesla cars and also adding a lot of space and rocketry specific training. It is completely possible that these models were trained on data that would logically be public at some point.

It is also possible that the author's guess is right and that these were to contain sensitive data.

Noone really knows, but honestly, these kinds of mistakes are happening all the time. Who hasn't accidentally leaked their own .ssh dir on github? lol
