If nearly everyone had an STD, I’d still want people to disclose that shit.
Epic CEO says AI disclosures like Steam's make "no sense" because AI will be involved in "nearly all" future game development

I'm not even going try defend this building, suffice to say its owners spending squillions on new buildings while letting their existing estate deteriorate to the point they need to wrap them in chicken wire to keep the cladding from falling off seems remarkably allegorical
Application submitted for stabilisation of A-listed 40 George Square (1960-1963), formerly David Hume Tower - covering the building in a light gauge stainless steel open mesh system due to the condition of the slate cladding (estimated to have a future lifespan of only 3-5 years): bit.ly/3K7E0Dz

Hard to look at this and not think 'peak human achievement here, we're done'
First up: scientists said it couldn't be done. But we put our logo on a scroll, and then got a mouse to hold it while riding a lobster.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a heteromultivalent nanogel capable of killing some of the most dangerous bacteria known to medicine- with over 99.9% effectiveness against P. aeruginosa. It also showed strong antibacterial effects against other major threats, including E. coli and MRSA.
