    Just to clarify, my understanding of you bio-hacking is that you are "hacking" your body to behave in an certain way. Some already go that route via Injecting magnets or rfid into …

    I remember going to a talk where the head of synthetic biology at MIT talked about his work. One of the things he is working on are educational kits for young students. You might w…

    No, I don't miss the 90's. I was a kid back then, and didn't have the freedoms I have now as an adult. That freedom can bring in a lot of complexity, but I'd take freedom over simp…

    I was wondering why my previous comment was dead as quickly as I had submitted it. I did a quick Google search and discovered OpenTrons is y combinator backed. If censorship is the…

    Eh, I get mixed reviews from people who own this, which is why I opted not to get one for my lab. Some labs never use it to its fullest capabilities, either and use it for show. A …

    I appreciate your concern, and your moral obligation to try and tell people. I do not mean to be rude to you, but your understanding is outdated and wrong. Saturated fats are actua…

    I read "The Personal MBA". I honestly wouldn't recommend it as a purchase. It's mostly definitions that you can skim through in an afternoon. There is a lot of pseudoscience/brosci…

    I've done both. Same issue. :(

    I wish I could agree, and if I were experiencing a different situation, I would be in the same camp. Firefox 65 keeps crashing on my Linux box. I've tried downgrading to 64 and bel…

    Yeah. Probably will take a while. So much for freedom, eh? I'd be interested if they had tutorials to make your own, but I'm pretty sure they'd like to keep this a trade secret.

    Interesting website. The legal jargon on one of their pages is reminiscent of things I'd see in online pharma websites that sell viagra pills, modafinil, and the like. I'm not sure…

    Oh wow. Do you have an academic background in chemistry? I've heard stories of chem phD students synthesizing in their labs at night. I've considered synthing for the challenge and…

    I disagree. I have both a MBP and ThinkPad. I'm probably in the minority, but I prefer the trackpoint.

    Interesting. If you don't mind me asking, how do you plan to do this? Grants? Investors? Trust fund? If you can sustain yourself longer than 6 months, have you considered just star…

    "Virtual Reality seems like a safer bet." Out of curiosity, can you explain why you think so? I'd think block chain has the bigger potential, but I don't keep myself up to date on …

    A short summer adventure driving from east coast to west coast helped me learn to appreciate the journey more than the destination, and that thinking has crossed over to developing…

    Cutting off social media led to much improvement in my situation. It's a time sink - unless you're using it for marketing purposes. The time I use to peruse Facebook, IG, Twitter, …

    I disagree. I see it more as natural selection. Training is usually what a soldier might have to go through in real combat. I don't think accommodating different body types will be…
