Cuckoo was a risky change well worth it. We got a fancy model induction pressure cooker (which also happens to look like the front of the sci-fi ship Event Horizon) and can really taste the difference in how the rice comes out. Also there i

They aren't sorry they can't profit from it, they will continue to profit from it anyway. One of their membership tiers includes an annual payment so you can get the newest easily digestible thing with your data. Shame on them for

Wow, blaming paying customers for their inability to secure their systems. You cannot control users, but you can control your security posture. 23andme's management can fuck right off with their bad attitude and poor judgement.

It's more like using them as an electrolyte, but it acts like a battery (you charge by adding waste, discharge by extracting electrons), I guess? You run the bioreactor with some special electrodes that bacteria like to touch, and then

Your brain and body are likely running out of sugar, but it is not the _only_ energy source you can put in / harvest from your system. I recommend a small snack on something healthy until your next scheduled meal. Repeat an hour later

Now I'm wigging out to the idea of how the act of overcoming the inertia of the existing system just to migrate to JSON would spawn thousands of bugs on its own — many life-threatening, surely.
