People really think Malaysia needs Balaji? 😭 Bro threatened to pull out RM100M like it’s nation-building money. That literally buys you ONE regional bus station.

Malaysia is dealing with tens of billions from Google and Microsoft, we'll survive without a pop-up camp.

The research behind this is wild. Your kitchen sponge has the same density of bacteria as human stool. German scientists found 54 billion bacterial cells per cubic centimeter inside used sponges in 2017. Yours is sitting right next to your sink.

Sponges are the perfect home for bacteria. They are wet, warm, full of food bits, and never fully dry between washes. Across all 14 sponges, the team found 362 different types of bacteria. The most common species include strains that can make people sick.

In 2011, the public health group NSF International swabbed 30 things in 22 American homes. The dirtiest object in the entire house was the kitchen sponge. It was dirtier than the toilet seat. 75% of the sponges tested positive for the kind of bacteria that includes Salmonella and E. coli.

Microwaving does not clean the sponge. The 2017 study found microwaved sponges had higher amounts of the smelliest, most harmful bacteria. Heat kills the weak strains. The strong ones survive and refill the sponge with no competition for space.

A 2021 Norwegian study compared kitchen sponges to dish brushes. In brushes, Salmonella was wiped out within three days because the bristles dry out between uses. In sponges, bacteria climbed to about a billion cells per sponge. The lead researcher told CNN that one kitchen sponge can hold more bacteria than there are people on Earth.

Three things actually work. Switch to a dish brush, because brushes dry fully between uses while sponges stay wet for hours. Replace your sponge every one to two weeks. Never leave it sitting wet in the sink. Norway and Denmark already do this by default, but most other countries don't.

The detergent is fine. Your sponge is the problem.

Don't study harder tonight.

Sleep first.

I know that sounds like the advice of someone who doesn't understand how much work you have. But Royal Holloway researchers ran two meta-analyses across 50 years of sleep and memory research and found something that should permanently change how you schedule your work.

One full night of sleep deprivation before learning cuts your brain's ability to form new memories by 40%.

Not 5%. Not a slight dip. 40%.

You can spend 4 hours studying after no sleep. Your brain will process almost none of it. The hippocampus, which is the part that actually converts experience into memory, needs sleep to prepare itself for encoding.

You cannot outwork a depleted hippocampus.

The paper: "Sleep Deprivation and Memory: Meta-Analytic Reviews"
Psychological Bulletin, 2021.

The students who stay up all night to study aren't working harder than you.

They're working in a brain that's been locked.

Sleep is not the enemy of productivity. It is the condition that makes productivity possible.

Do you understand how huge is this breakthrough?

Malaysia just dropped B100, the world’s first 100% palm oil biodiesel with zero fossil mix

And Malaysia is the would’s 2nd largest palm oil production powerhouse

This means a small country like Malaysia have the power to boost energy independence with this biodiesel alternative right here

Many people aren’t aware that palm oil is superior to other plant-based oils in many ways. It boost the highest yield per hectare, versatile and renewable

the West has been trying so hard to brainwash and demonise palm oil past decades….

Well, because the West can’t produce any

Let that sink in

Beli petrol pakai IC, marah. Sebab menyusahkan.

Sama mcm minyak masak, guna apps menyusahkan. Tapi tengok skrg warga asing tak boleh beli. Banyak juga skrg minyak peket.

Agensi kerajaan gempur kedai runcit bagai utk pastikan rakyat dapat yg sepatutnya.

Keji, hina, cela.

POV: A guy with ChatGPT and Google AlphaFold just built a custom mRNA cancer vaccine to save his dog.

this story is actually insane.

a tech guy in australia adopted a rescue dog with aggressive cancer and only months to live.

so he did something wild:

> paid ~$3k to sequence the tumor dna
> used chatgpt to analyze the mutations
> used google’s alphafold to model the proteins
> identified drug targets and designed a custom mRNA cancer vaccine

he had zero background in biology.

after months of paperwork, the vaccine was approved and injected.

within weeks the tumor shrank dramatically and the dog started recovering.

meanwhile pharma companies are running $1B trials to do the exact same thing.

the future of personalized medicine with AI is going to be insane.

Let me explain what this means so that you understand better.
.
Sometimes tiny cells in our stomach get very stubborn and turn into bad guys called cancer. They grow way too fast and don't listen to the body's rules.
.
But you see, these smart scientists in Korea didn't want to fight them with big scary bombs and bazookas like old medicines do. Instead they sat the cells on a wooden bench and said "Look here you stubborn cells, why don't you just remember who you really are and be good again?
.
So they made a pretend computer twin of our belly cells. Just like a magic video game version. (something like that sha) so they played around in the game to find the three bossy switches that were making the cells stay stubborn.
.
.
Those three bossy switches have funny names. They are MYB, HDAC2, and FOXA2.
Fantastic 3 lool
.
The scientists turned those three mean switches Off. Poof.
And just like that guess what? The stubborn cancer cells were like "Ohhh… I remember now!
.
Then they calmed down, grew up properly, and turned back into nice, normal belly helper cells. No more bad growing.

They then tried this in Mice, and the poor mice got better. The bad lumps got smaller because the cells stopped being the bullies they were.

It's like telling your barking Dog at home to shusss and calm down. And it actually calms down.
.
.

This isn't ready for humans yet, as it's still developing. But it's going to help out someday. And well, a lot of people are gonna be wayyyy happier.
.
.
.

Kudos to the scientists once again and I'm super happy about this development and the positive impact it's going to have on affected people 💪🏾💪🏾
