I’ve taken low dose oral min for a few years and it’s systemic, meaning it’ll make all your hair grow. I now have body hair where before it was never noticeable. “I’m hairy like monkey” as my kids say.

And in reality much much less than a Datacenter would. Once plot files are written they use a cache to look up their hashes. The utility of those files on the other hand are a whole different conversation.

Their software runs a full node and a wallet, so most users are a node by default (if I’m not mistaken) and rewards are double for the first couple years. You can run their software and just about anything, low powered CPU’s, pi’s, NAS, etc. So I don’t doubt their numbers are too far from the truth, esp considering how much China supports them. Nodes have been slowly dropping over time as the crypto boom cycle has died down.

As far as real transactions, they’ve got a way to go. Just releasing NFT support a few months ago.

They do, but recently my weekly discover is infused with kids songs. And it’s taken a few weeks ok ignoring those tracks to get them out.

I would consider Alexa a communal device. Spotify is heavily used there in households. Source: worked on Alexa.

Yeah, That’s the dream and already happening as far as heart rhythm abnormalities. But wearables are pretty lacking. For example, I have a resting heart rate of 40bpm due to intense exercise. Iwatch won’t register heart rates that low, but if I get an EKG I’m fine.

Additionally EKG’s puts leads all over your chest to get precise electrical measurements. A watch on your wrist isn’t going to be comparable, esp with things like sudden cardiac death. This article takes it even further as you need detailed imaging to really save these types of patients. Since we don’t yet know many of the underlying genetic variants or causes of sudden cardiac death. It’s more common than people realize and often goes undiagnosed or misdiagnosis because it’s hard to detect until too late.

Source: Multiple people in my family have died from sudden cardiac death. All with perfectly normal EKG’s before they passed.

My family has an unknown genetic variant that causes sudden cardiac death. We’ve been studied a lot. My father in law and his brother both died suddenly jn their early 50’s. My wife and brother in law both had elective heart surgery in their 30’s to install defibrillators as safety precautions to avoid suddenly dropping dead.

Our two daughters both have unknown heart variants and one of them is on a beta blocker for life since the age of 1 to avoid sudden cardiac episodes. She’s also forbidden to drink stimulants or play certain sports for risk of heart episodes. She looks completely healthy and normal and wants to play as intense as other kids.

This tech could mean that my children don’t have to face the same decision as their elders having to decide between dangerous and expensive surgeries for an unknown risk or living your life in fear.

I can’t tell you how huge this is for us if regular checkups would be enough to say, yes go live and play, enjoy your life. Things look good.
