Comment I smell an IOT play coming (Score 0) 287

Wonder when the iOS and Android apps will come to manage this via bluetooth? Perhaps women could get an implant that could be setup to turn off/on the valve based on certain criteria. For example, anytime I'm even near that region it shuts off, potentially sparing humanity of yet another illegitimate child. I say insert them in all young men to a certain age. Darn wish I had one of those many years back.

While I could have replied, starting with something like "To be fair to the "idiot" who included references that he didn't even read..." but didn't see the point, as there is little value add, and you already know that you're bold statement was indeed baseless. That said, I doubt your an idiot.. we all make mistakes.. A lot.

Thank you for taking the time to reply with something that was actually meaningful as opposed to the times square circle jerking that was going on ahead of you. Most are super quick to jump in to throw mud around, while offering nothing in return, which is super productive. I get why it's fast tracked, cause there is panic on the line and we can't have that. I wonder if cancer were contagious would it get the same treatment? Not sure where everyone else on this thread sits with cancer, but its likely touched most peoples lives to some extent. I write this as I sit here looking at my 6 month old niece in the hospital, who has just been diagnosed with brain cancer and now breathes via tracheotomy. Did I mention she is 6 months old? Beyond that, over my lifetime I've lost my father, 2 uncles, 2 grandparents and the list goes on all to cancer. So as a result, perhaps I'm a little jaded when I hear about some "other" disease getting cured in such a short amount of time. I suppose it's only natural. Does, it make me a moron?... Maybe. What does that say about the response I got, besides it that it pushed some buttons as it should? I'll leave that to rest of the aforementioned others to pass judgement on, as they most likely will. Again, thanks for you time.

It is interesting that when there is a limited broad commercial viability, the "drug" designers and chemists are able to whip up a cure for something in under a year. However when it comes to something like cancer, where billions of dollars are on the line (nevermind the lives), the cure is oddly and seemingly out of reach forever.
