"If you don't include your women graduates in your breeding pool and leave them on the shelf, you would end up a more stupid society... So what happens? There will be less bright people to support dumb people in the next generation. That's a problem."

I've attempted to map everything in oncology in a public website and open source repo for all.
The site is trying to get all cancers, products, technologies, bottlenecks, people, startup opportunities with 1000+ ideas for upgrading the field.
If you have a loved one with cancer and you are technical or can engineer, go take a look, file improvement requests or bugs or help with the open repo and make this the best open and free info resource for individuals, researchers and educational use.
This should save people time, aid AI oncology projects and generate positive action. If you are not technical just complain in this thread about broken or annoying or things you want and I'll fix them live.
Some of the interesting pages:
Treatments: onco.cc/drugs
A gallery of the molecules being used onco.cc/molecules/
And targets: onco.cc/targets/
The technologies in oncology: onco.cc/technologies/
1100 ideas for helping oncology: onco.cc/ideas/
Bottlenecks on oncology: onco.cc/bottlenecks/
Open questions (LETS GO RESEARCH PEOPLE) onco.cc/open-questions/
Startup requests (LETS GO STARTUP PEOPLE) onco.cc/startup-requests/
Mechanics of cancer: onco.cc/mechanics
Battlefronts: onco.cc/fronts/
Isotope supply: onco.cc/isotopes
Key papers: onco.cc/key-papers
Pipeline funnels: onco.cc/pipeline
Cancer by type: onco.cc/cancers/
Institutional rankings: onco.cc/institutions/
The startups: onco.cc/startups/
Heros and heroines : onco.cc/heroes/
Key medical people: onco.cc/people/
Here is the project roadmap: onco.cc/roadmap/
Models and data sets: onco.cc/models/
There are other views as well, take a browse.
Try making a PR if you have an upgrade to this on the repo here: github.com/judegomila/OnCo
If you are biologically/medically minded and something is wrong, file a bug as well or say on the thread and we will get it fixed live.
If this is a useful project star the repo and help get it calibrated.
I've tried to add some other languages but I cannot speak them so tell me if that doesnt work well.
I believe we will crack oncology and having total information dominance is key to the problem.
Let the feedback flow!

Num jogo em que o traidor nunca é punido, trair vira a estratégia dominante. Condenação anulada, prova anulada, investigação anulada por quem está sendo investigado. Não é falha do sistema, é o sistema.
Hoppe explicou que quem ocupa temporariamente um cargo que não é seu extrai o máximo agora, e Hayek explicou por que os piores chegam ao topo: o cargo exige o que só quem não tem escrúpulos aceita fazer. A corte que deveria punir foi nomeada por eles.
O único que ainda coopera é o brasileiro honesto, e cooperar sozinho num jogo sem punição tem nome em teoria dos jogos: otário.

Good ideas survive on their own merits.
Bad ideas need authority to legitimize them.

Marxists have the right ideas for the wrong species.
Their theory might work for beings with identical DNA, gender, talent, ambition and appetite for risk.
Humans are not that species.

Elon is right.
Good ideas survive on their own merits.
Bad ideas need authority to legitimize them.
This is one reason why I opted for anonymity: I wanted whatever I shared on 𝕏 to be judged by its merits. Yeah some stuff has been retarded but overall things have gone alright.

Anarcho-capitalism is a wonderfully abstract ideal that can inspire innovation. It helped inspire me to help invent cryptocurrency.
But real-world cryptocurrencies are not trustless -- they are trust-minimized. Each cryptocurrency has a legal attack surface, representing the kinds of ways governments and/or private entities can practically use law to disrupt their operations. The layer 1 of a good trust-minimized cryptocurrency like Bitcoin can withstand much more interference than centralized technologies could or can, but the technology still has its limits.
The kinds of attacks that come from financial law have largely proven to be manageable, due to a combination of the trust-minimized (not trustless) technology, which requires diligent attention from developers motivated to keep it a trust-minimized form of money, and a large army of cryptocurrency industry lawyers who specialize in financial law.
The legal attack surface from arbitrary data is far larger and far less predictable. The crypto industry does not have the legal expertise to deal with it.
Thinking that Bitcoin, or any other cryptocurrency or blockchain protocol, is a magical anarcho-capitalist Swiss army knife that can withstand any kind of governmental attack in any legal area is insanity.

Harnessing just 1% of the energy in Earth's sunlight will transform the world more dramatically than the Industrial Revolution.
The original version of this chart from @OurWorldInData is a great illustration of the transformative power of energy. I've zoomed out and extended the axes to show the power of the Sun.
The gap between Zimbabwe and Japan is smaller than the gap between our world today and a world that harnesses 1% of Earth's solar potential.
There are no "developed" countries.
It is complete arrogance to refer to ourselves as "developed" and others as "developing."
Modern industrialized nations are not some end point of technological evolution.
All of Earth is developing.
"Rich" countries today will look impoverished by the standards of our descendants.
Power in the physical sense (energy/time) empowers us in the metaphorical sense. Intelligent direction of energy flows is what enables us to shape the world for the better.
The Sun drives more than 99.9% of all energy flows on Earth. Everything else is a rounding error.
Harnessing the power of the Sun empowers us to improve the human condition and restore the biosphere.
There is no contradiction between the flourishing of humanity and the flourishing of the biosphere. We are interdependent.
Humanity is not a virus. There is no virtue in "degrowth."
Life on Earth is doomed to the hellfire of an expanding Sun. Humanity is the only hope.
We can manage the heat of an expanding sun and extend the lifespan of Earth. Eventually, we must shepherd life beyond the confines of this planet.
To do so, humanity must become both powerful and wise. Our fate, and the fate of all known life depends on it.

If God wanted us to build Type 1 Civilization, he would have:
1. put a giant fusion reactor in the sky
(emitting blackbody radiation around 5800 K)
2. made 28% of Earth's crust out of a semiconductor with a matching bandgap (~1.1 eV or so)
3. filled the oceans with an alkali metal we could use to store limitless quantities of energy
(sodium or something similar)
That would be a crazy coincidence...
