Very skeptical of that one.
They’ve been trying to target amyloid for more than a decade, and it’s the first time I hear of it actually working.The treatment seem to have huge side effects (brain bleeding and swelling) and lead to patient death during the study.
Elly Lilly is also know for marketing zyprexa as a treatment for dementia (despite inefficacy and increased risk of death). Which is IMO criminal, at best unethical. I’m not inclined to trust them at all.I hope I’m wrong and it works. Alzheimer is a terrible way to go.

If a construction company taxidermied their dead workers into animatronics and used those unholy puppets to perform the same job, it wouldn’t shock me more.

Elon Musk admitted it was all about fueling opposition to California’s high-speed rail project so it would get canceled.9·2 years agoAlternatively, the fall of Elon Musk was his way of getting Jack Ma’d, because money is not everything, and you can’t just buy yourself a tool of strategic value and expect no consequences.
Where I live it’s much more complete than google maps, especially in the countryside.

dedale@kbin.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•France grants police power to spy on citizens through phones3·2 years agoA few things. How do we know it’s going to be Pegasus? How do you know the price, why is it so expensive (and why would anyone assume it to stay so)?
Because if it actually is Pegasus, the main problem with this bill isn’t surveillance (although it is most definitely a problem),
but the tacit endorsement of this unregulated infoweapon.As the poet said: doubleplusungood.

I don’t know how they’ll deal with California’s CCPA.
Social media is a tool of state surveillance and manipulation. Why wouldn’t it be legal?

It’s cumbersome and annoying, but they’ll have to honor it.
I use it from time to time. The tech is getting better.
But it’s very hard to find anything interesting on it.
They REALLY need to focus on implementing content filter and discovery tools.
Right now it’s a lot noise and reposted videos. The search function doesn’t work at all.I think the platform could be viable with a decent, verbatim search function; a tag-based browsing system, and the ability to visualize the federated instances and browse any of them as local.
It’s still possible to find interesting videos by browsing an instance focused on a specific interested as local.
It was murder. He stood against the hoarders, and they got his head.
