I have loved half life since the first one came out. I was reminiscing with my brother that I probably played it on different screen technologies for each one. Crt, led, OLED, VR headset. Wild
Breakthrough Update: Today, Vertex announced that they are beginning their Phase 3, or pivotal trial for VX-880, a stem cell-derived islet therapy. A pivotal trial gathers the data required for an FDA submission. This therapy is for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and hypoglycemia unawareness and severe hypoglycemic episodes.
This is a HUGE first for the #T1D community as it is the first time a scalable cure for some people with T1D is entering this phase.
Breakthrough T1D and the T1D Fund are incredibly proud to have supported this work in cell therapies—a top priority for our organization. We want to congratulate our partners at Vertex and thank all the patients who have participated in clinical trials. Your courage and commitment are inspiring.

The Buddha said, “We suffer because we desire. If you can give up desire, you won’t suffer.” But he didn’t say that as the last word; he said that as the opening step of a dialogue. Because if you say that to someone, they’re going to come back after a while and say, “Yes, but I’m now desiring not to desire.” And so the Buddha will answer, “Well! At last! You’re beginning to understand the point!” Because you can’t give up desire; why would you try to do that? It’s already desire.
So in the same way you say, “You ought to be unselfish,” or to “give up your ego.” “Let go.” “Relax.” Why do you want to do that? Just because it’s another way of beating the game, isn’t it? The moment, you see, you hypothesize that you are different from the universe, you want to get one-up on it. But if you try to get one-up on the universe, and you’re in competition with it, it means you don’t understand you are it. You think there’s a real difference between self and other.
