#AI refuseniks of the world, unite! "I read a really great phrase recently that said something along the lines of 'why would I bother to read something someone couldn't be bothered to write' and that is such a powerful statement and one that aligns absolutely with my views." h/t @tforcworc https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c15q5qzdjqxo

Today I learned there is a vaccine for the cancer that killed my mom in development. In a stage 1 trial, it cured the cancer for people with Stage III and IV cancer. That made me tear up for what might have been.

Then I learned that legislators in some states are trying to ban RNA vaccines (which this possible cure is) and I really cried.
