Cayetana@cayetana·
Welcome. And congratulations. I am delighted that you could make it. Getting here wasn't easy, I know. In fact, I suspect it was a little tougher than you realize. To begin with, for you to be here now trillions of drifting atoms had somehow to assemble in an intricate and intriguingly obliging manner to create you. It's an arrangement so specialized and particular that it has never been tried before and will only exist this once. For the next many years (we hope) these tiny particles will uncomplainingly engage in all the billions of deft, cooperative efforts necessary to keep you intact and let you experience the supremely agreeable but generally under appreciated state known as existence. @billbrysonn - A Short History of Nearly Everything

This is crazy! This is the start of pod babies. Many people would like to have more kids but don’t because pregnancy is very taxing. It’s a huge decision for a family, especially for the woman. This would unlock a whole new era of childbearing. I am not calling it good or bad, nor diving into all the complexities. I am just stating what will most likely happen as this technology matures.

We built an artificial egg and hatched chicks. The Colossal artificial egg has a bioengineered shell designed to breathe like a real egg. And because a South Island giant moa egg was ~80x larger than a chicken’s, this will be critical tech for bird de-extinction.

So excited to see what Isomorphic Labs continues to accomplish! Such an exciting time for biotech!
Isomorphic Labs@IsomorphicLabs

Today marks a pivotal moment for Isomorphic Labs. We have secured $2.1 Billion in our second external funding round, led by Thrive Capital. They are joined at the table by Alphabet, GV and new investors MGX, Temasek, CapitalG and the UK Sovereign AI Fund. This milestone accelerates our ability to build the pioneering novel AI models that power our AI drug design engine (IsoDDE) and deploy them at scale: delivering scientific breakthroughs with a precision previously thought impossible, accelerating and expanding our pipeline of therapeutic programs toward the clinic. All with the ultimate goal of delivering life-changing new medicines to patients. Moving forward, we will scale our drug candidate pipelines across multiple therapeutic areas, expand our global footprint, and push the boundaries of frontier AI research to power our drug design engine. Deeply grateful to everyone sharing our vision to solve all disease with AI. Let’s build the future of medicine. Read the full announcement here: bit.ly/4v2OI03

I’ve read all of them. These are the ones that are a trip: 1. The Player of Games - best intro to the culture. 2. Excession - multiple dimensions really make you think - real all the way to the end to understand completely. 3. Hydrogen Sonata - to understand more about simulations. 4. Surface Details - fun read. Outside of the culture series the Algebraist by Banks is also really good.

Ok. I tried to read the Ian M. Banks Culture books to get a preview of the future Elon is building 📚 He mentions them all the time But honestly, they were super boring and I gave up 😂 Has anyone read them fully? What can we learn? @grok help us summarize them 🙏

We should give mosquitos a gene where 60Hz kills the shit out of em. Turn the entire electric grid into a mosquito exclusion zone, nobody has to worry about bites at home anymore and even the wild ones can't spread disease far because they can't cross infrastructure corridors.
Zane Koch@zanehkoch

ok actually insane paper published yesterday a research group in Korea built a gene switch you can control wirelessly using electromagnetic fields they exposed mice to 60 hz EMF (same frequency as your wall outlet) using a pair of large coils that generate a uniform magnetic field around the animal, for cyclic 3-day on / 4-day off pulses they showed this could: - activate OSK to do epigenetic reprogramming in progeroid and aged mice, extending lifespan and reversing aging markers across multiple tissues - conditionally switch on mutant amyloid genes only in aged mouse brains, letting them separate aging effects from amyloid effects to study AD biology in a way previous models couldn't no drugs, no impacts, just a magnetic field from outside the body

@kaiarhodes @anatar @NASA Been following you for a bit! Spot on that this is the next frontier to invest in! As a person who lives at the forefront of it, I'm excited to see where you take this next!

NASA has identified soft goods, advanced composites, non-flammable materials, and dust-tolerant soft-sided logistics systems as critical technology gaps for the Moon Base program. The need for advanced textiles goes beyond clothing. It extends to habitats, covering everything from wall panels to storage bags. Nonwovens, felts, webbings, zippers, sewing threads, coatings, finishes, foams, and elastics. A complete soft good is accurately described as an engineered system, often termed "technical soft goods," which blends material science, industrial design, and manufacturing strategy to create durable, high-performance items. Far from simple sewn textiles, these products are designed to perform specific, often demanding functions under pressure.
