I've been watching this treatment for a while, in my opinion it's one of the most exciting development in modern medicine. It represents a lot of potential - Huntington's is one of many brain diseases related to protein aggregates, so this technology could be adapted to other diseases. Plus, this is the first curative treatment for what was otherwise a 100% fatal genetic condition.

Ai has been in drug discovery long before LLMs were a thing. It's revolutionized our ability to identify possible molecules and proteins that can save lives.
It's less about managed culls and more about raising funds for conservation.
Hot take, I'll offer an alternative perspective. Obviously, poaching is one of the most disgusting crimes. Sourcing animal parts for folk remedies is reprehensible.
Responsibly managed hunting generates a ton of money, some of which which gets invested into the local community and into conservation efforts.
The key word here is responsible. If a land manager shared wealth in an equitable fashion with the locals, and demonstrates careful management of animal herds by close monitoring of populations, that's responsibility. I wouldn't want to hunt on lands owned by, say, a literal nazi in South Africa. But, unfortunately, as long as we live under capitalism, I have a hard time imagining a different way to encourage the world to preserve our natural resources.
Actually, no, the bio soster shares the same biological father. This was an embryo adoption, not IVF
Personally, I disagree. The baby's bio sister is, literally, a biological sister whose DNA comes from the same parents.
The limiting factor in utero is the health of the placenta. Past a certain point, the organ no longer functions and the baby does not survive. This is why (at least in the US) inductions are required past a certain point.
Because, I shit you not, it's cheaper than adoption in the US.
I forget the name of the app, but we used a potty tracker. Basically, once we realized our puppy went to the bathroom X hours after eating or drinking, we took him outside a few minutes before then.
I've also heard you can take those pee pads and gradually move them closer to the door until they're outside.
That's not quite the same thing - the 7 digit phone number has more to do with short-term memory capacity than visual perception. Miller's Law of short-term memory is we can store 7 +/- 2 items at a time, depending how complex they are.
