If only they colocated some research scientists at the transplant locations and gave the staff/patients incentives or discounts to round up the data.

I mean, extending the lives of super-rich people is noble and all, but if you could collect the experimental data to help the unwashed masses, well, then, now you've got a whole new way for youth to support the lives of the elderly other than through Social Security taxes.

You wouldn't be able to tell that by looking at their website.

You're just jaded. And better that people perform stunts involving this kind of CTE, than the other kind.

So the government can now delegate and automate even the production of hallucinations. Inevitable, I guess.

Horrifying or brilliant? Why not both?

Whoops, looks like I ran afoul of Poe's law.

Weird Al Yankovic is a well-regarded musician among people with cultured, refined tastes. While he definitely deserves proper recognition from musical awards bodies, naming a celestial body after him, while not improper, seems inappropriate.

It seems more like a statement that those who respect and appreciate his contributions to the arts, are just a bunch of big nerds. Ridiculous.

I expected him to stick "Trump" somewhere in the name, to keep the branding consistent. Maybe he's turning over a new leaf.

Woohoo! The solar combined with the batteries are working! (See the mid-day yellow pile, and the blue hump that starts at 6pm)

Considering that I'm not sure what an artificial intelligence has as a world model, I suspect it will be less "should I kill humans or control them to serve my interests" and more "Oops, did I just step on something?"

But there is precedent for having someone do it for you.

And if your kidneys start to fail, you can use even more parts of the pig!
