Oh no, they don’t like pylons either. They just want coal plants in poor people’s gardens and subterranean power cabling.


Maybe ICUs will upgrade their staffing ratios instead if the costs change that much


I have the Android app, but I can download podcast episodes on WiFi to save on mobile data. That’s as good a reason as any to use the app.


What is the point of your comment?


First-in-human just means it’s the first time that specific therapy is being tested on humans instead of animals (e.g. mice, dogs, monkeys), and the primary objective of the trial is to test that it’s safe for use in humans. It doesn’t refer to the concept of gene editing or lowering cholesterol.
Walk near the local playground and attach balloons to all the dogs off-lead.


Get ready for something they were doing 20 years ago?


I don’t think it’s anything as sinister from the current government. I’m not saying it’s a good idea, but they’re more stupid and weak than they are totalitarian. British Labour has had an obsession with “tech” solutions for social issues since the start of the Blair years. Sometimes it works, but as often it’s mired in incompetency and corruption.
I suspect that this recent spate of apparent puritanism is because they recognise that gender-based and sexual violence are “issues” after the discourse around Adolescence, but they can’t/don’t want to do anything actually meaningful (improve welfare, job opportunities, life prospects) so are latching onto what they believe are “easy” solutions. No-one with power actually understands how net infrastructure works, or cares about privacy as a principle, but they do have a group think that also leads them to think that this might make some inroads with “the right.”
It’s all absolute garbage being slapped together by career politicians who don’t understand anything and are primarily interested either in their next election or their post-parliament careers.
Don’t people normally aim slightly larger then go back to get it resized?
Tell that to the millions of people who met long-term partners only because they used dating apps. I met mine on an app and now we have a kid together. We don’t have overlapping friend groups, and although we share hobbies we didn’t do them in the same areas.
