It will take the world a while to move away from the US. It’s built itself as a relatively trusted, albeit flawed, nation to all the major western powers.

It’s sad to see the destruction of my country’s reputation, sadder to see 50% of the population take pride in it. I’d leave if I could

I didn’t say it was magic. Part of the issue is we don’t know what modifications he made in making his artificial version. I won’t pretend like there aren’t a lot of unknowns there. It could alter the effectiveness in numerous ways.

Having a heterozygous deletion is still effecting the right gene. Without knowing both of her parents genetics it’s hard to say if it was natural. What he did could produce either a heterozygous or homozygous result on the gene, but only the homozygous presentation is effective at prevention.

So 1 was a full success and the other showed activation on the appropriate gene, but not enough to confer resistance. Although it is possible it does since he used an artificial gene. We know the natural one is not effective in a heterozygous presentation. I still think that was his greatest mistake. He should have just used the naturally effective gene.

You do make a good point with the full backing rigor of the scientific method this procedure would always be successful.

So far I’m liking lemmy more because there is a lot less per post. I find I’m enjoying each thread more fully. It’s like I’m not endless scrolling because I can’t. I’ve actually read more articles in the day since I’ve joined than in my last 3 months on reddit.

Per the wikipedia page it states that it is not clear if it effective because they’re not going to intentionally infect the children to test it. But we see the results specifically on the targeted gene. That’s a success and demonstrates the technology works.

I’d argue the folly was inserting an artificial gene as opposed to the natural gene that we already know works. Either way the technology showed expression on the correct gene, that is a success.

We’d be having a better discourse on this if his results weren’t banned from every journal and not studied.

By all accounts what he did worked. The potential to end HIV is huge. The amount of human suffering that could be reduced by rolling out what he did is very real.

The technology is here. It’s better to strictly manage it for the public good than to lock it away.

When you’re not growing seedling you could grow microgreens.

Honestly that space is big enough to grown some veggies in containers

Faster than expected seems to be the motto for this year.

Dismissing a state’s right to sovereignty is the most anti-democratic thing I can think of.

Considering Ukraine is the only modern/western democracy to have been invaded for territorial conquest in about 80 years demonstrates the level of bullshit that you’re spouting.

This should have been fixed in the 1800s when Andrew Jackson defied the Supreme Court, but it was ignored and here we are

On par form his last time in office. Speeding up the rate of executions is a very weird policy point.

If they remove my pork tumors can I keep them?

I’m also planning to use an ecoflow. Unfortunately I don’t want to do a roof mount so when I need to charge it I’m hand moving panels into the yard.

I have the 1kwh one, reportedly it can run a fridge for at least 8 hours. With 2 300 watt solar panels during the day it can run the fridge and charge up enough to power phones too. It is capable of charging and discharging at the same time

What’s the cook time on oats? I’ve heard they can be a pain to proccess.

Also how’s the shelf life?

Well this is what I was waiting for. We’re boned

It’s like not standing for anything and sacrificing your party’s morals in the name of “compromise” isn’t a solid strategy

I’m hopeful this will all lead to America’s farmers breaking from the republican party.

I fear american farmers will go bankrupt and all their land will be bought by corporations.

Fire red will always be my number one as it was my first game.

Otherwise it’s a hard choice between Sapphire and Heartgold. Both had great regions and lots to do.

My most played would be Diamond and it was good, but sinnoh was never my favorite region.
