    Silly scientists getting in the way of sports again:

    In an effort to explore the complex moral issues surrounding the controversial topic, the world’s leading geneticists gathered at an international conference this week to debate the ethics

    Jurassic Park, here we come!

    https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...as-been-found/

    The tiny fossil is unassuming, as dinosaur remains go. It is not as big as an Apatosaurus femur or as impressive as a Tyrannosaurus jaw. The object is a just a scant shard of cartilage from the skull of a baby hadrosaur called Hypacrosaurus that perished more than 70 million years ago. But it may contain something never before seen from the depths of the Mesozoic era: degraded remnants of dinosaur DNA.

    Racist fat research, showing it's ok to freeze out colored people, especially if they're fat:

    Short-term cold exposure may help people with brown fat burn 15 percent more calories than those without, according to a small study published in the Endocrine Society's Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism.

    Unlike white fat, brown fat burns calories through fatty acid oxidation and heat production and is considered a promising target in the fight against the obesity epidemic.

    The notion of a quantum credit score seems terrifying to me:

    https://www.hpcwire.com/off-the-wire...-trade-finance

    Singapore Management University (SMU) and Tradeteq will be embarking on a project “Exploring the Advantages of a Quantum System for Machine Learning applied to Credit Scoring,” which aims to develop quantum computing-based credit scoring methods for companies. This project is supported by the Monetary Authority of Singapore under the Financial Sector Technology & Innovation (FSTI) – Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics (AIDA) Grant Scheme.

    SMU and Tradeteq’s objective for the project is to build a predictive machine learning model that has the potential to improve credit scoring accuracy. The model will be implemented on both a quantum computer and a simulated quantum computer.
    The notion of accuracy in a credit scoring system is amusing, here. Does our simulator and non-simulator match? Does the score reflect reality? Is it actually predictive? Yawn.

    We get Skynet and the Borg if we don't let computer sleep:

    Artificial brains may need sleep too
    States that resemble sleep-like cycles quell the instability that comes with uninterrupted self-learning in artificial analogs of brains

    The first step toward Planet Of The Apes:

    A human-specific gene causes a larger neocortex in the common marmoset, a non-human primate.

    I clicked the link, read a bit, and considered posting it in this thread after immediately forgetting that's how I got there. I think I might need a ARHGAP11B gene booster shot, myself.
