I’ve never been to Amigo/King’s Classic so I’m not a good source for that comparison lol.

I think the closest comparison I could make would be a rundown off-the-highway Waffle House in the South

Steak N’ Shake was always the dirtiest burger place, no matter which Midwest city you visited. This is just another reason to avoid it lmao

usa@lemmy.ml is curated bad faith arguments (from recent weeks experience). We have that here as well.

Republicans are themselves bad-faith actors in all respects, like Putin. Their words mean nothing.

100%. Their corruption knows no bounds.

Once the lawsuits rack up they’ll pass immunity laws for ICE.

I bet it will happen within the year, faster if there’s a major incident involving ICE

💯💯💯💯💯

Imagine calling it a “Defense” budget and going to invade the Middle East, on the near opposite side of the world, twice in 3 years.

Then the next dude’s comment won’t make sense. Preserving for posterity.

I write both words all the time and still mess them up constantly lmao.

If there was justice in this world it would only effect the dipshits… but we all know there is no justice.

That’s fair. As someone related to the science field, I am skeptical of police (anything, but especially their) ability to investigate things like this.

I have had Excel delete information from datasheets and have received data where cells were changed to dates because someone opened up the file in Excel. It seems like that was a sticking point in the article.

Unsurprisingly, she did half this shit to process samples faster which speaks to the systemic problem of underfunded and overworked scientists.

Lots of incriminating quotes in the article from the investigation quoting Woods. She needed to learn to shut the fuck up.

They are both things to aspire to, but you’re right in that one does not lead to the other.

Yeah this will definitely lead to peace in the Middle East. Israel big brained as always.

Your statement could be true, but the way you’re presenting it sounds like you’re just letting the oppressors win.

IIRC a CCR5 deletion leads to HIV resistance, but the homozygous allele also leads to immune transcription disruptions. I believe there was a Chinese geneticist that deleted CCR5 from twin embryos and got “disappeared” for it, but it remains to be seen what the consequences of that change are (I don’t remember if those embryos were implanted).

I’m of the opinion that we should approach this topic with caution until we know exactly what’s going on and the consequences of said alleles. Hypothetically speaking, imagine being born and chosen by this IQ method only to realize some horrible consequence later like asthma susceptibility in a world with decreasing air quality.

I’d be extremely pissed lmao. I could still find happiness even if I was less intelligent.

There’s another discussion about genetic homogenization that I don’t care to go into atm too.

PRS are useful but not definitive when it comes to phenotype development, as you’ve hinted at, but I take issue with using them for eugenics purposes with the main reason being we do not know the underlying causal mechanism. It is too early to use them with confidence for something like this IMO.

I work with PRS and I am not confident in using them for IVF purposes (that may change when we understand what’s actually going on the proteomics level). I would equate it to something along the line of sports betting with the consequences being eugenics in nature.

We absolutely do not - geneticist who has worked on neurodevelopment projects

We don’t even know why Turner Syndrome - a disorder of X chromosomes - often leads to neurodevelopment delays. We have hypotheses that still aren’t tested, so anyone claiming to know the genetics of neurodevelopment is grifting you.

Ain’t that just the way
