Of course it doesn’t come as any surprise that a rich man child who doesn’t care about workers rights, truth, etc also doesn’t care about animal rights
Exclusive: Musk’s Neuralink faces federal probe, employee backlash over animal tests | Reuters
@scullingmonkey "the company does not keep precise records on the number of animals tested". I am not familiar with US law... but is that even legal?
@nicolaromano “On several occasions over the years, Musk has told employees to imagine they had a bomb strapped to their heads in an effort to get them to move faster, according to three sources who repeatedly heard the comment. On one occasion a few years ago, Musk told employees he would trigger a “market failure” at Neuralink unless they made more progress, a comment perceived by some employees as a threat to shut down operations, according to a former staffer who heard his comment.”
@scullingmonkey I was not thinking about the absolute numbers, rather the fact that they're not keeping an account of the numbers. Even if legal (it wouldn't be in the UK or in Europe) it's definitely bad scientific practice
@nicolaromano oh yes absolutely. But as witu many things that also happen here in uk, if no one makes you do somethung people use their own “personal freedom” to cut corners
Awful scientific practice
@nicolaromano It says in there that that’s acceptable in USA
