Shame the way it went down, quitting due to his boss being fired.

Per the NYT Matthew Goldstein who was there in person:
The jury of nine men and three women began deliberating at 3:15 p.m. and was out for a little over four hours including dinner.
The headline mentioned putting it inside a human body, but never bothered to mention why (I figured just for the heck of it...).
Here's a use case for it.
"The potential of the NEA in targeted cancer radiation therapy is particularly promising. The compact nature of the accelerator opens up the possibility of placing it inside an endoscope, allowing for direct administration of radiation to the affected area within the body. This approach would not only ensure greater precision in targeting cancer cells, but also reduce the side effects associated with current methods of radiation delivery."
For scale reference. Unrelated, but an interesting comparison I believe (one company's default search engine spending vs all spending by a top country on space endeavors).
I'm not worried about birds, cats already own us...
Only the cool kids have heard of it...
Freaking great movie! Like watching 1990s SNL on acid.
The Treer MegaZeppelin!
The best movie no one has ever heard of (I even have the graphic novel pre-chapters...)
Do you bleed?
#4 - Water, forgot water.
That's rather important and in short supply in many places, the Mississippi river is at 100 year lows for the 2nd year in a row... (that's a massive water shed, 60% of the continental US). Aquafiers are draining as well (none are being charged).
Here's my logic takes me.
It's a population issue.
#1 - We've reached max arable land (unless you consume all of the forest remaining).

#2 - And then there is topsoil, needed for all of that agriculture. It's diminishing as well.

#3 - And fertilizer, it's mostly sourced from natural gas (not green or ultimately sustainable).

Human population will adjust according to resources available.
I also believe we're a bit past peak population.
When you hit peaks in things, such as population (carrying capacity for a region), there are knock off effects.
War is effective population control. A terrible approach, but very effective.
Google lists other Causes for population reduction (includes all of your examples):
A reduction over time in a region's population can be caused by sudden adverse events such as outbursts of infectious disease, famine, and war or by long-term trends, for example, sub-replacement fertility, persistently low birth rates, high mortality rates, and continued emigration.
The Missouri Highway Patrol sent out a state wide Blue Alert test referring to Batman, they should do the same here!
FTA: "sent out an alert about the driver of a purple/green 1978 Dodge wanted out of Gotham City."
The guy directed Demolition Man. It's exactly what you describe, exactly what I would expect (and probably enjoy for just those same reasons).
Do you know how to use the shells?
Except the brain doesn't have a solution to the problem (of dying). So it tries to find a solution, which requires hallucination.
That's what I think.
I didn't read the article of course, but I did read the comments about it...
For the love of karma that is a fantastic phrase!
I wouldn't be surprised if there were some additional charges for other parties in this situation. Dad being one of them if I were to guess.
Of course maybe, as a lawyer, he covered himself well enough... I'd be surprised if he didn't.
Oh, so there you are!
