🇺🇸 A Texas biotech company just hatched 26 live chicks from 3D-printed artificial eggs with no shells and no hens.

First time in history a complete bird embryo developed in a fully artificial system.

And that's just the warm-up.

Colossal Biosciences is using this same tech to bring back the South Island giant moa: a 12-foot-tall, 250 kg bird that went extinct 600 years ago.

No surrogate exists on Earth big enough to hatch one. So they built the technology to do it without one.

De-extinction just went from science fiction to a construction project.

1960ء میں فرانس نے کانگو کو آزاد کیا۔ بعد میں اس نے اپنا سفیر وہاں تعینات کر دیا۔ ایک مرتبہ فرانسیسی سفیر صاحب شکار کی تلاش میں کانگو کے جنگلات کی طرف نکل گیا۔
جنگل میں چلتے چلتے سفیر کو دور سے کچھ لوگ نظر آئے۔ وہ سمجھا شاید میرے استقبال کے لئے کھڑے ہیں۔ قریب پہنچا تو معلوم ہوا کہ یہ ایک آدم خور قبیلہ ہے۔ انہوں نے فرانسیسی سفیر کو پکڑ کر ذبح کیا۔ اس کی کڑاہی بنائی اور سفید گوشت کے خوب مزے اڑائے۔
فرانس اس واقعے پر سخت برہم ہوا اور کانگو سے مطالبہ کیا کہ وہ سفیر کے ورثاء کو (کئی) ملین ڈالر خون بہا ادا کرے۔ کانگو کی حکومت سر پکڑکر بیٹھ گئی۔ خزانہ خالی تھا، ملک میں غربت و قحط سالی تھی۔ بہرحال کانگو کی حکومت نے فرانس کو ایک خط لکھا، جس کی عبارت کچھ یوں تھی:
"کانگو کی حکومت محترم سفیر کے ساتھ پیش آئے واقعے پر سخت نادم ہے، چونکہ ہمارا ملک خون بہا ادا کرنے کی استطاعت نہیں رکھتا، لہٰذا غور و فکر کے بعد ہم آپ کے سامنے یہ تجویز رکھتے ہیں کہ ہمارا جو سفیر آپ کے پاس ہے، آپ بدلے میں اسے کھا لیں۔ والسلام!"
پاکستان کو بھی چاہئے کہ وہ آئی ایم ایف کو خط لکھے، جس کا مضمون کچھ یوں ہونا چاہیے:
"پچھلے پچھتر برسوں میں ہماری اشرافیہ نے جو قرضے لئے ہیں، وہ آپ ہی کے بینکوں میں پڑے ہیں، ہم آپ کے قرضے تو واپس نہی کر سکتے۔ لہٰذا گزارش ہے کہ ہماری اشرافیہ کے بینک بیلنس، اثاثے اور بچے مغربی ممالک میں ہیں، بدلے میں آپ وہ رکھ لیں۔"

BREAKING NEWS:

If India don't qualify for the Semi-finals of the T20 World Cup, the format will change to a "Super 5" challenge where the top 2 sides from each Super 8 group will be joined by India in a round-robin format with all games played in Chennai and Mumbai to determine the winner of the tournament.

Russia has announced a major medical breakthrough after confirming that a cancer vaccine will soon be offered free to patients around the world, a move that could reshape global cancer care. The vaccine targets the molecular markers found on tumor cells and trains the immune system to recognize and destroy them before they spread. Early trials show strong results, with patients experiencing reduced tumor growth, fewer relapses, and stronger long-term immunity against multiple cancer types.

Scientists say the vaccine works by activating specialized immune cells that normally struggle to detect cancer. Once injected, the vaccine “flags” malignant cells and helps the body mount an aggressive, targeted attack — similar to how traditional vaccines fight viruses. Unlike chemotherapy or radiation, the approach is designed to work with the body rather than against it, offering treatment with fewer side effects and better long-term outcomes.

The announcement has sparked global optimism, especially in countries where cancer treatment remains costly and difficult to access. Russian officials say the goal is to make the vaccine widely available, ensuring that income or geography doesn’t determine who survives the disease. Health experts believe the move could reduce global cancer mortality if adopted on a large scale, especially in regions with limited medical infrastructure.

If the rollout succeeds, it could mark the beginning of a new chapter in oncology — one where cancer prevention and early immune-based treatment become standard worldwide. A future where cancer vaccines are routine, affordable, and accessible to all may be closer than anyone expected.

[Global Government Affairs @GlobalAffairs]

X has received executive orders from the Indian government requiring X to block over 8,000 accounts in India, subject to potential penalties including significant fines and imprisonment of the company’s local employees. The orders include demands to block access in India to accounts belonging to international news organizations and prominent X users.

In most cases, the Indian government has not specified which posts from an account have violated India's local laws. For a significant number of accounts, we did not receive any evidence or justification to block the accounts.

To comply with the orders, we will withhold the specified accounts in India alone. We have begun that process. However, we disagree with the Indian government’s demands. Blocking entire accounts is not only unnecessary, it amounts to censorship of existing and future content, and is contrary to the fundamental right of free speech.

This is not an easy decision, however keeping the platform accessible in India is vital to Indians’ ability to access information.

We believe that making these executive orders public is essential for transparency – lack of disclosure discourages accountability and can contribute to arbitrary decision making. However, due to legal restrictions, we are unable to publish the executive orders at this time.

X is exploring all possible legal avenues available to the company. Unlike users located in India, X is restricted by Indian law in its ability to bring legal challenges against these executive orders. However, we encourage all users who are impacted by these blocking orders to seek appropriate relief from the courts.
