Neuralink@neuralinkThe dura is the brain's armor: a membrane so tough that a surgeon normally cuts through it with a scalpel. For the first time in our clinical trials, we inserted the electrode threads of our implant s...
SummaryNeuralink has successfully inserted brain implant electrode threads directly through the dura mater (brain membrane) without surgically removing it, using advanced imaging and insertion techniques. This breakthrough potentially makes the procedure safer and more scalable by eliminating one of the most delicate surgical steps, with a clinical trial participant regaining cursor control via thought within an hour of surgery.Jun 30, 20265 tweets♥ 16.2K
CR Sanchez@crsanchezxSoy europeo. Hace 16 años, las economías de la UE y EE.UU. estaban prácticamente a la par. Hoy, la economía de EE.UU. es un 50% mayor que la de toda la UE junta. Esta es la cruda realidad detrás de...
SummaryUn europeo analiza cómo la economía estadounidense ha crecido un 50% más que la UE en 16 años, atribuyendo esto a que EE.UU. prioriza la innovación y recompensa el emprendimiento, mientras que Europa sofoca a los empresarios con regulaciones excesivas, impuestos altos y una cultura anti-empresarial que está causando una fuga masiva de talento. El autor argumenta que Europa se está convirtiendo en un museo del pasado en lugar de un constructor del futuro, y advierte que la brecha económica solo se ampliará a menos que el continente cambie drásticamente su enfoque hacia la desregulación y el apoyo al riesgo empresarial.Apr 19, 202621 tweets♥ 12.3K
