failwhaleshark 11 hours ago [–] Suppose protein folding simulation and manufacturing can rapidly advance well beyond current levels. It seems like a hypothetical synthetic immune system that whitelists every configuration of every protein an individual can possibly generate and excludes everything else (if possible) would be a way to blanket eliminate unknown unknowns proactively like SELinux for the body. reply pontifier 10 hours ago [–] I did a thought experiment about how the immune system must work and came up with a simple system using only mechanisms that I know are available molecularly. If you could have a bunch of random protein sensors that undergo a training phase where they learn what "Host" is. Anything that makes a "detection" during training is discarded. Anything that doesn't is either never going to detect stuff, or might detect something "Foreign". These then float around your blood stream and either do nothing until they are lost, or go crazy replicating and raising the alarm when something Foreign shows up. A danger with this method is random sequences that are just really bad at detecting "Host" or a training period that is cut short. This might lead to autoimmune responses. This thought might give some hints about how to combat autoimmune diseases without disrupting the greater immune system. reply

qPM9l3XJrF 1 hour ago [–] Is there such a thing as an ethical thousandaire? Millionaire? If you think there is, why can't there be ethical billionaires? An ethical billionaire is just an ethical millionaire who kept working to make the source of their income grow until it grew 1000x as large. Big businesses are generally more ethical than little ones -- subject to more customer and regulatory scrutiny. It's much easier for a small business to get away with flouting environmental regulations or treating its employees harshly. (When's the last time the manager at a tiny roadside restaurant got fired for sexually harassing his employees?) This increased level of scrutiny means it is easier to bring to mind examples of unethical behavior by large businesses even if the actual rate is about the same. The media is biased to cover misdeeds by billionaires due to billionairephobia, the same way it is biased to cover misdeeds by Black people due to racism.

I wanted to imagine how the immune system works, but I didn't go read a biology textbook, or even a wikipedia page. Instead I sat here in my computer chair and dreamed to myself about how it might work, and then I wrote some stupid words about it on the internet. Anyway have you considered that the bloodstream is a bit like GitHub

ploika 43 minutes ago [–] I think you're talking about different things. Yosemite could be breathtaking, but not interesting (because it feels very foreign) the way that a huge high school football game or a typical American diner might be interesting to non-American eyes.

The rare good post: dougmwne 34 minutes ago [–] I was shocked the other day on the Ethereum PoS announcement by the energy consumption per transaction metrics. It threw the whole crypto market into a new light for me. BTC is using over a megawatt hour PER transaction! That's almost 5000 miles in a Tesla model 3. BTC is using about 2/3 of the power of every data center on the planet! Many, many people have been imprisoned or executed for creating less societal harm and externality than Bitcoin. Satoshi Nakamoto may end up being the most destructive person to have ever lived. People are free to gamble, but could they please not turn the surface of the Earth into a black body radiator while they're at it? reply
