  Sequence them; he was bashing in a gene that we already know conveys HIV resistance (but not complete immunity), the ∆32 mutation. If sequencing shows that the babies have the mutation, and also don’t have any other negative mutations as a result of the experiment, then it was successful.

  That ‘and also’ is the hard one to be sure about.

  This seems odd, but I’m no spoonologist, so who am I to argue?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why doesn't Steam support Android?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re implying that the entire android software ecosystem is shit and should be avoided

  Middle Earth is canonically our Earth, in the past

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨kawaiiiiiii⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, but it’s not spherical for the elves, just the other races, which is why elven boats can sail to the undying lands, but human boats can’t.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨El paso⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably not, as decals warning not to pass on the right of semi trailers are common, this one just happens to be kind of spicy (‘passing side’/‘suicide’ is another humorous one that you see around). The warning doesn’t imply any sort of recklessness on the part of the truck driver-- they make wide right turns and stupid people sometimes try to pass them on the right while they do so.

  I don’t how one snorts lsd

  LSD is a crystalline solid under standard conditions.

  let alone how that gets into your stomach

  Nasal drip; snort too much to be easily absorbed by your sinuses, and it runs down your throat and into your stomach instead

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  its going to be something spur of the moment, wrong turn, wrong person, wrong time.

  The way history likes to repeat, it’ll be something stupid involving a sandwich

  It’s rated M because of moderators poor understanding of ‘gambling’

  Ha, I was wondering if that’s where you got your handle

  Torrents for it are around

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Physicists vs Normal People⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Technically the gas pedal controls the change in acceleration, right?

  Technically it controls the amount of air and/or fuel delivered to the engine (in a gas engine, the pedal directly controls airflow; in a diesel engine it directly controls fuel flow)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Physicists vs Normal People⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Acceleration in physics terms just means a change in velocity. Velocity is speed in a given direction

  They definitely know that, given that they know that change in acceleration is called jerk

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Least extreme biophysics phd⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Depends how successful the experiment is (and probably on what the goal is as well).

  If he’d been testing the effects of grass vs grain feed on human fat marbling, I’d imagine the sentence would have been a little more severe

  Oh they’re by no means bad cameras, it’s just that in my experience Samsung cameras tend to be the best, as far as phones go. My wife has a fancy DSLR that just collects dust because her phone camera blows it out of the water (meanwhile there’s me with my Motorola that I quite like, but the camera is a potato)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thinkpad for the win⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  needed an iPhone for work cause she takes a lot of pics

  She takes a lot of pictures…so she needed a worse camera?

  It’s not that peoplecan’t figure it out, it’s that they won’t. As soon as you mention the terminal they stop listening or thinking

  /gamemode creative doesn’t have that problem because it’s not a terminal, it’s a chat window
