Of course that's your contention. You're a first year Will Manidis student. You just got finished readin' some of his venture stuff, Deal Guys or Legible to Capital probably. You're gonna be spouting that 'til next month when you get to Rented Virtue, and then you're gonna be talkin' about how the economies of Britain and Pennsylvania were Quaker and capitalist way back in 1709. That's gonna last until next year -- you're gonna be in here regurgitating Tool-Shaped Objects, talkin' about, you know, the market for feeling productive versus the market for being productive. Well, as a matter of fact, I won't, because Will drastically underestimates the impact of fairy -- Will drastically -- Will 'drastically underestimates the impact of fairy courts. You got that from A Subpoena for The Devil, right? Yeah, I read that too. Were you gonna plagiarize the whole thing for us? Do you have any thoughts of your own on this matter? Have you even read the Manidis Arabic canon? Do you even know how to play the al-Luʿbat al-Hāl (اللعبة الحال)? Or do you...is that your thing? You come into a bar. You read some obscure passage from Will's western, venture, Judeo-Christian, tech stuff and then pretend...you pawn it off as your own idea just to impress some girls and embarrass my friend? See the sad thing about a guy like you is in 50 years you're gonna start doin' some thinkin' on your own and you're gonna come up with the fact that there are two certainties in life. One: don't do that. And two: You dropped a hundred and fifty grand on a fuckin' education you coulda' got for zero dollars on Substack or X.

For more than two decades, we've known that dogs can detect cancer from breath. @dognosis makes it real. Last week, their work was published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, the world's leading cancer journal. For a breath test to clear that bar is a genuine leap for what non-invasive diagnostics can be. Read the full study here: ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JC…

Combining trained detection dogs indications with a Bayesian framework incorporating historical dog performance and participants features yielded 90.8% sensitivity & 91.3% specificity for multicancer detection from breath. Truly the human’s best friend! 🐶 ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JC…

@PTarantinoMD The publication says that an interim analysis was presented at @asco annual meeting 2025. How did I miss that? Should have been in the press program!

PD: este estudio es fase II, interpretar de acuerdo a esta evidencia¡. Lo deseable sería que un perrito (imaginen un caramelo🐶¡) se entrenará y se demostrará en un fase III la misma exactitud diagnóstica contra el estándar de referencia... así como la TB se detecta "Las ratas gigantes africanas (Cricetomys gambianus) entrenadas por la organización APOPO son utilizadas para detectar tuberculosis (TB) en muestras de saliva humana (esputo) mediante su desarrollado olfato. Son capaces de examinar 100 muestras en 20 minutos, mucho más rápido que los métodos de laboratorio tradicionales, salvando miles de vidas al identificar casos que pasaban desapercibidos"

Me dijo un compañero experto oncólogo con una seguridad infinita: "En la oncología no se puede hacer nada más que copiar exactamente el/los modelos de tamizaje/diagnóstico/atención/tratamiento de los países de altos ingresos"...En un sistema de salud con recursos finitos esta opinión tiene un retraso como de 3 décadas (sino es que más). En México y LATAM los dudantes lo dudamos. Mantener siempre la duda y claro el código ético¡ @csoncol @opsoms

Can dogs detect cancer from breath? 🐶 This JCO Phase II study says: maybe. 🧪 Mask-based breath test 🐕 Detection dogs + Bayesian model Results (n=1,502): 🔥 Sens 90.8% 🔥 Spec 91.3% 📈 AUC 0.96 🌱 Early-stage ~91% Multicancer. Non-invasive. Low-cost. But ⚠️ case-control only No real-world screening data yet. 👉 Signal is big. Practice is not ready. What do you think ? 📖 Full paper in comment ⬇️ #OncoTwitter #MedTwitter #CancerScreening #EarlyDetection @OncoAlert @myesmo @ASCO @JCO_ASCO @esmo_open @drkeithsiau @oncology_bg @DrOz @elonmusk

I love dogs and now science shows they can detect cancer early just from smelling your breath! Canine Olfaction Combined With Bayesian Modeling for Multicancer Detection From Breath Samples: A Phase II Study in India | Journal of Clinical Oncology ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JC…

The AUC of 92% is eye catching but the real question is how this performs in a low prevalence screening population. Sensitivity and specificity look great in a phase II enriched cohort but the positive predictive value in general population screening is where these diagnostics usually run into trouble

@Papa_Heme I had a patient with T-cell lymphoma tell me her dog wouldn’t leave her neck alone. The dog found a recurrence before the PET/CT. Will never forget her.

Cancer-sniffing dogs beat blood test. Zuck's $500M to bio + space laser energy. Rainmaker makes + measures rain. Colossal to de-extinct the Bluebuck. Millennial dads are exhausted and happy. + Science Breakthroughs, Earth AI, 2 Great Convos What a week for the optimists.
