The importance of 1 tree. 😉

If two-year-old Mohammad al-Tamimi was named Eric instead, would his killing by Israeli soldiers have been treated differently in the international media?

SCOTUS rules agains Amgen, 9-0. An important decision because Amgen wanted to enforce a patent on any monoclonal against a particular target (the PCSK9 receptor), which would have set a terrible precedent.

"This case does not involve those antibody-specific patents. Instead, it involves much broader patents Amgen obtained, which cover every antibody that binds to the same sweet spot and works the same way, a class that includes potentially millions of antibodies."

"Compared with other bacteria, #Salmonella, a facultative anaerobe, has higher motility and accumulation in tumors and a special advantage in targeting tumor quiescence, possibly via the chemoreceptors of Salmonella"

Alzheimer's went into the textbooks with n=2

Many of you might know (or not) that Alzheimer's disease is named after Dr. Alois Alzheimer who first reported that the brains of some patients with age-related dementia had "a peculiar substance" (which today we know as beta-amyloid plaques).

But did you know that he found that in exactly 2 patients that he studied before his boss put it in a 1910 textbook and coined it "Alzheimer's disease"? That substance could have been a complete coincidence! (And in that case, I guess we never would have heard about it again) ...

انتظر وشاهد معظم الشركات التي تتسابق لركوب موجة الذكاء الاصطناعي AI، وبناء حلول دون فهم حقيقي للمشاكل، وفوضى العلامات التجارية التي تبني خدمات عديمة الفائدة، كل ذلك فقط من أجل أن يقولوا:
نحن نوفر خدمات مدعومة بالذكاء الاصطناعي

Cela fait 20 ans que les technophiles, les geeks et les auteurs de SF vous préviennent : tout comme l’écologie, protéger sa vie privée est un acte collectif. Si seule une minorité le fait, cette minorité est suspecte.

Utiliser Signal, installer Linux et critiquer les GAFAM sont devenus des comportements justifiant l’inculpation de… terrorisme. Rien que ça.

Lemmy l'alternativa del Fediverso a Reddit sta avendo il suo momento di gloria, ma serve l'aiuto di tutto il Fediverso per far si' che questo momento magico diventi l'inizio di una nuova era!

@fediverso

Le politiche di #Reddit sulle API a pagamento stanno provocando un piccolo esodo dei utenti verso quella che oggi è la sua alternativa più funzionale: #Lemmy.

In 48h l'istanza feddit.it ha avuto le iscrizioni di 2 mesi, ma ora bisogna far si' che quegli utenti restino. In che modo?
