One point of clarification for accuracy is that these experiments were done in 2015 but not published until 2025. Other experiments with BMI using virtual reality were published in the interim like this BrainGate study from Young and colleagues

i studied how parietal cortex appears to respond more strongly to naturalistic movement effectors (like an arm rather than a mouse cursor.) this informs how future brain machine interfaces should use the parietal cortex.

As I predicted in january, the Trump administration will simply cut off any sources information that reflect their failures or incompetence as long as billionaires can continue lining their pockets. One more step on the path to oligarchy.

Progressives like Bernie, AOC and Mamdani are wildly popular and could completely transform election turnout but the democratic establishment’s worldview is too calcified. They can do nothing but whinge and cry and cash corporate donation checks in support of creeps like Cuomo

Theyre going to gut the agencies that provide basic data on the economy, health, etc so that theres no way to know when they royally fuck everything up to enrich themselves. Bureau of labor statistics, CBO, everything health relates, etc

Sekiro FTW. I’ve always wondered how writers and game devs weave game mechanics with story and which leads / gets priority. Are certain game mechanics/set pieces predetermined dots that the writers connect? Or do writers get pieces which they assemble more like Legos?

Sure. But something is better than nothing. And it is already planned to phase up to $15 over time.

To raise money for public transit improvements for those who don't do that.

And research from other countries shows that SOME number of people will in fact be dissuaded from driving by the extra cost, which also relieves congestion.

It's a good thing.
