The occasional cat out somewhere, may not respond or acknowledge a calling out to them,
but they all - hear a click of the fingers & turn to look at you
Somehow it gets through

this might be my last normal tweet before biotech goes vertical
i'm not a whistleblower. I don't work at Lilly, Novo or any of the big labs
but there is a massive shift happening in human biology right now.
it's sitting in press releases and almost nobody reads them
the last 6 months alone:
- a once-daily pill roughly doubled median survival in metastatic pancreatic cancer (13.2 vs 6.6 months)
- a one-time gene editing infusion cut hereditary angioedema attacks 87%, and 62% of patients stayed attack-free and off all other prevention for 6 months
- a one-time gene edit for cholesterol dropped LDL up to 62%, and it held for over a year
- a personalized mrna vaccine beat keytruda alone in a 1,137 patient melanoma phase 3
- retatrutide hit ~28% weight loss in a phase 3
- an ai-designed drug entered phase 3
- a pill that regrows hair passed its second phase 3
- an immunotherapy that could let some rectal cancer patients skip surgery, chemo and radiation just got fda approved
- a man lived 271 days off dialysis on a pig kidney
- human cells were caught passing chromosome-sized chunks of DNA to their neighbors, and it changes how the neighbors behave
we are on the verge of an era where the human body is a software problem and the update cycle gets shorter everyday
stick around, it's going to get weird
bio/acc
Efficiency- though also great for the verandah, under the fridge, behind the washing machine_& the fringes on the rugs so everything yeah

Never have trusted people who have an aversion to cats. Some of the worst people I've ever come across. Cats have a special spiritual connection with humans - they can pierce your soul....Those who hate cats can't stand those who see right through them...
And it's always the ones that hate cats, but love dogs...Every time...because they just want a prop in their life that serves them and pleases them...(and I'm a big dog lover too, fyi, not knocking dogs at all...)

This is how you can find hidden cameras (even the ones without lenses) with a few light flashes.
Researchers came up with a surprisingly effective method they call Eye of Sauron.
Just rapidly switch the lights in a room on and off. When the scene changes abruptly, a camera’s codec has to re-encode a lot of new data, which spikes electromagnetic emissions from its memory controller. If you sync the flashes with an EMI scanner, you can pick up this signature and locate the camera - even pinhole ones that only record to an SD card or stream over a cable.
In their experiment with 50 different camera models, every single one was detected after just four scene changes. Some were found more than 20 meters away and even through walls. Detection range reached ~30 m for plastic-cased cameras and ~11 m for metal ones (far better than typical commercial detectors that only work at 1–2 meters). The whole scan took between 4 and 32 seconds depending on room size.
The method nicely complements classic RF scanning and looking for lens reflections. They also used radio-astronomy filtering techniques to cut through the usual household noise (phones, routers, kettles, etc.).
