If we cure aging, life expectancy is 9000 years at current accident rates

The words of the bill have no meaning when trump is unilaterally slashing things he does bit like

The ethical reasoning is we don't care about the pigs, millions of lives will be saved by exno kidney transplants. The argument is already very strong that we should pay to donate their kidneys given the scale of death (especially among the poor) kidney disease already causes, so a pig is nothing in comparison

Reading up on this there is some chemical signaling from the blood, but the brain is not controlling the rate of the new heart

That is actually wild and I wonder about the practical consequences as well.

So you get into a stressful situation or get a flee or flight response, and your heart is not affected by it, or at least the heart rate, but your cardiovascular system may be needed because in that case the rest of your body is, and presumably you may need much more blood to be pumped out to your organs among other things.

It is a cool food for thought.

He's asking about what the nerves do in a normal person

I think too many people starting companies dream of getting bought rather than running a profitable business. They care far more about financial games rather than the complex details of say their products manufacturing that matter most (instead relying on a third party in china who arguably is the more important partner). I don’t know how saas relates to this problem.

This is HN though so my complaints are ironic for sure

The behavior wouldn't exist if the system didn't so heavily incentivize it. How many pizza place owners do you know with a net worth of $10,000,000 or higher, vs how many pizza place owners have ever tried?

It's clear every site on the internet without id checks (and even those who do check id since people can lie) are accessed by minors, I'm not sure what they expect.

They are collecting this data in order to use it for advertising. Google, Meta, and TikTok know a crazy amount about the people they are tracking. There’s no way they don’t know (or couldn’t make a great guess) about the age.

this stuff is always pushed by people with either no technical understanding at all or just bad intentions

Not sure why this was marked dead when it's not wrong. The people in Congress/Parliament are not the most tech savvy people, and pretty much just do what their lobbyists recommend even if they don't understand the full implications.

Yeah the bbb continues to act like a federal agency even though its just a private group

The choice is make 90% of their pay only if they make a lot, setting up a career that might be doomed to a life of crime, or do nothing all day in a cell.

They also have to volunteer, what are you even saying

Offering a discount for longer contracts and jacking up the price for shorter contracts have no noticeable difference to either party.

I feel like this article is thus being overly generous. The EU simply wants consumers to be able to cancel digital products that have no marginal cost anyway, which makes intuitive sense imo.

Even building desalination plants is doomed by NIMBYs wielding environmental laws and the costal commission to block any project

Have you tried building a subsurface well? Last project didn't want to build one even though the desal plant would otherwise have negatively impacted local wildlife, including marine animals in and around sensitive estuary habitat.

That and brine are legitimate concerns.

Also cost. The desal project in Huntington Beach was projected to increase local water prices.

> Have you tried building a subsurface well?

Yes. And they're all being rapidly depleted

That's not what a subsurface well is.
