- Comment on Why do teeth don't regenerate? 2 weeks ago:
Your baby teeth and adult teeth all began developing before you were even born. Our DNA still contains all the genes that sharks use to grow their endless conveyor belt of replacement teeth, but in humans these genes are deactivated by the 20th week of foetal development.
The advantages of keeping the same teeth through adulthood is that they can be securely anchored in the jawbone, which allows us to chew tough plants and grains.

though a drug is being developed that could allow us to regenerate teeth
- Comment on EU doubles down on penalising privacy-friendly and encrypted messaging services 4 weeks ago:
Copying the top comment in HN discussion
avianlyric 1 hour ago | next [–]
The title of this article is very misleading, suggesting that EU governance is some kind unified body, and that these documents actually represent what “The EU” wants to do.
EU governance is far more complicated, and these documents only represent the view of one part of the EU governance system, the EU Council.
The EU council is basically made up of people sent by the state governments of all the members, and basically represents the views of those state governments. The council is the only legislative writing body in the EU, but it has no power to enact legislation. It can only write proposed legislation, and present it to the EU parliament for voting on.
The EU parliament is made up of directly elected MEPs and represents the interests of EU citizens as a whole, and not as individual member states. To get legislation passed, the parliament and council need to work together to get legislation written that the council is happy to write, and the parliament is happy to enact. The council is small body of 27 people, representing the interests of state governments, and the parliament 705 MEPs and represents “the people”.
There’s currently no evidence that these proposals by the Council will have any success in the parliament, if anything quite the opposite. The EU parliament has made I quite clear they don’t like this type of draconian legislation, and won’t vote to enact it.
Obviously that doesn’t mean we should ignore these proposals. It’s important to make it clear we don’t like it, and lend weight behind the arguments being put forward by MEPs to block this legislation. But to say this represents the EU “doubling down” on penalising privacy-friendly services is ridiculous. It represents the EU council doubling down, but that only one small part of the EU governance bodies, and the other bodies are actively fighting back.

- Comment on Why not just let people use opioids? It's cheap. People like it. Arguably healthier than weed, alcohol or tobacco. Addiction isn't an issue if you can stay supplied. 8 months ago:
am not a doctor myself but from what i know, the reason you increase the dose in first place is that your body build tolerance. if a normal person were to take same dosage as a long time drug addict they would die in minutes
reasons for death of overdose:
- someone went to rehab and lost their tolerance then went back to drugs with same dosage they used to take
- someone missed a dosage and went through horrible withdrawal symptomps so when they finally got the pill they took too much
- buying certain drug without knowing it is laced with a more powerfull one

Nothing about the open source status of those devices.
Can we install ordinary Linux on Orange / Rock Models same as we do with Raspberry Pi? Are we required to install priority kernel modules? Kernel source code is available?

They need to go back to when earth was very hot ball of molten metal. Anything more recent than that means there is a non zero chance that the smart phone or parts of it would remain intact. There is also a chance of turning into a fossil (the phone gets buried into some mud, the mud dries and turn into a rock, eventually the phone dissolve and disappear leaving behind its print in the rock
