Oh yeah good point on crispr and the antibody chimeras (which etanercept is) I guess I imagine one of the highest order obstacle to protein therapeutics to be immunogenicity, which is really hard to design around for a de Novo protein

how many therapeutic proteins are there that aren't mabs or ~naturally occurring proteins (insulin, modified insulins, hirudin, cerezyme etc)? I can think of: etanercept

The math works out if you project certain macro trends out a sufficient amount of time. I think if fusion is real, it might not be so advantageous until space mining is a thing.

yeah, IMO generally explicit is better. It's hard to take something implicit and increase the visibility (I'm aware there are tools to show you lifetimes in rust). But another option is to statically analyze the code (or the IR)

hm, last i checked counters were fully implemented as atomics, it seems now theres another internal bif for "write concurrency", is this new or was it always like this and did i just miss it?

no, in zig it's never unexpected, because if you're freeing memory the freesite is known, it's a function call.

It's not.. but im pretty sure it could be. could probably even take this (WIP) idea and bolt on a formal verifier pretty easily. https://github.com/ityonemo/clr

Yes. Humans are also unreliable and nondeterministic (though certainly more reliable). Accordingly we have built software dev practices around this. I imagine it would be super useful for example to have a "TDD enforcer": Phase

I mean sure nature has no obligation to not have a unfalsifable particle, but you wind up in weird places, like, there exists a distribution of dark matter that explains the poltergeist that knocked over your coffee cup last week.

I think you mean LCDM only does well on galactic rotation curves because it has free parameters per galaxy. MOND only has one free parameter, maybe two if you use the MOND+Relativity model that doesn't work.
