also i was like "wait is this that idiot that injected himself with muscle tumor juice..." and no, that's apparently some other guy who this guy got in a slap fight with over whose bullshit dangerous idiocy is more medicine-y

quote:

In the biohacking world, Zayner and Traywick were considered rivals. Zayner — who's done his own self-gene-editing experiments in an attempt to beef up his muscles — had criticized the Ascendance CEO for making unsubstantiated and potentially dangerous claims about treating medical conditions.

what are you talking about, trades are booming and in desperate need of people, and american manufacturing workers werent replaced with robots, they were replaced with chinese and mexican people

within the next decade every white collar profession is going to begin being automated at the low levels, peon lawyers and the like are hosed

robots are hard, and extremely expensive. software is hard, but infinitely reproducible at no cost. in the not too distant future talking to a real doctor will be a luxury for rich people, everyone else will be getting diagnosed by a virtual doctor the hospital licenses. also the rich people will actually be diagnosed by a virtual doctor because even today software beats real doctors at accurate diagnoses when given the same data, and machine learning is still in its infancy

the world is changing faster than ever before and the pace is about to increase substantially

The LD50 of LSD varies from species to species. The
most sensitive species is the rabbit, with an LD50 of 0.3
mg/kg i.v. [52]. The LD50 for rats (16.5 mg/kg i.v.) is
much higher [52,53], though mice tolerate doses of 46–
60 mg/kg i.v. [52,54]. These animals expired by paralysis
and respiratory failure. Monkeys (Macaca mulatta) have
been injected with doses as high as 1 mg/kg i.v. without
any lasting somatic effects [55].

There have been no documented human deaths from
an LSD overdose. Eight individuals who accidentally consumed
a very high dose of LSD intranasally (mistaking it
for cocaine) had plasma levels of 1000–7000 μg per 100
mL blood plasma and suffered from comatose states, hyperthermia,
vomiting, light gastric bleeding, and respiratory
problems. However, all survived with hospital treatment
and without residual effects [56]
