Thinking about this some more, I suspect it is because colchicine doesnt cause intrachromosome mutation but instead induces tetraploidy, a very specific type of mutation. I wonder if children born with tetraploidy disease have a decreased risk of cancer.

Colchicine is an interesting drug. It is a very strong mutagen (mutates dna) yet somehow significantly reduces the risk of cancer rather than increasing it.

fact of the day: Santa's reindeer Donner and Blitzen are also the German words for thunder and lightening.

It's a #Fediverse alternative to #Reddit, with a more #HackerNews-type approach to things. It doesn't have a word filter like #Lemmy does, and federates far better too.

I've been leaving my hotel room door open so the waiter can come into my room without me getting up to bring me food. I hear meowing and apparently i made a new friend, this friendly little fellow was next to my bed. Startled me half to death but i think we are besties now. After feeding him he is just staying in the room guarding the door to keep me safe.

I hope he will come give me some cuddles.

What number would that result to!?

sqrt(-16)! = 4i! = 24i

Just did a search for Mastodon and we are 4th in the list

food is basically just middle eastern food where you replace all the chickpeas with fava beans.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Mastodon, is in fact, the Fediverse, or as I've recently taken to calling it, the ActivityPub-Fediverse. Mastodon is not a singular network unto itself, but rather a subnetwork of a greater "federated universe" - the Fediverse - realized by thousands of independent, live servers, each running an instance of one of an ensemble of platforms, all of which interoperate via the ActivityPub protocols.

Many Mastodon users surf a particular impression of the Fediverse every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the fraction of the network which is most widely used today is called "Mastodon", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the Fediverse, equally inhabited by users from other non-Mastodon servers.

There really is a Mastodon, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the Fediverse they use. Mastodon is an ActivityPub server for microblogging. Mastodon is an essential part of the Fediverse, but limiting by itself. The Fediverse experience manifests in the context of a complete network. Mastodon distributes content in combination with other ActivityPub servers. The whole network is basically ActivityPub servers with Mastodon being the most common; The so-called "Mastodon network" is really the Fediverse network.
