@UK_Daniel_Card The theoretical idea of a potent bacteriophage treating infections appeals to me at the surface. Treated a lot of very resistant bugs in a previous life. Saw a few instances of colistin usage.

The same technology can develop any virus. This terrifies me.

@UK_Daniel_Card No causal proof is required. The MHRA compile the reports and it feeds into their monitoring strategy.

@UK_Daniel_Card National scheme RSM by the MHRA (meds and medical device regulator). They take reports of side effects or adverse events that an individual clinician (and some non clinical folk) believes may be linked to any med, medical device, application, e-cigarettes.

@UK_Daniel_Card Hubris and business success incentives.

Mostly hubris.

@dru_jlh Email storms. A rare but terrible phenomenon.

@sherlock_comms Yeah that was tricky. They raise an interesting question about trust when reading. I recently reviewed a rather long document which cited a number of legal duties and attributed them to the wrong party. A mistake I never would have expected from the author. AI assisted.

@UK_Daniel_Card Where are your quotation marks?

@UK_Daniel_Card Booked tomorrow off. Get the car MOT’d in the morning then head into central London and lie down in a royal park. Bring my guilty pleasure thriller novel with me. Time to recharge a bit.

@UK_Daniel_Card Well you’ve said it now mate. There will be a Mail article about your extravagant polos before the week is out 🤭

@sherlock_comms I really hope that leaders in firefighting are across how bad things could get with climate change driven extreme weather shifts in the coming years and prepare accordingly. Freak events will become more normal. It’s time to prepare.

@sherlock_comms If you said it was to play Skyrim on, nobody would bat an eyelid.

@UK_Daniel_Card Should I bring a net? Wtf?!

[Dan Higgins @TheReal_DanH]

@sherlock_comms This is my hope of a benign form of Roko’s Basilisk.

[Dan Higgins @TheReal_DanH]

@sherlock_comms The LLMs will then hang out, argue with each other and laugh at a world that doesn’t understand their in-group signalling on a version of 4chan that they develop.

@UK_Daniel_Card @Cthulhu_Answers “They weren’t career defining they were a pain in the arse”

@christiancalgie This is aging well.
