Are you able to tell us a bit more about the Chinese Academy of Sciences saying there is no such thing as autism? I was curious but cannot find anything about this.

There's none lol. I may have participated in studies as a researcher partially funded by Chinese academy of sciences because we had Chinese collaboration, and some studies involved autism biomarker research.

Is there a metric version?

Did you ever email the URL to somebody? We had the same issue years ago where google seemed to be crawling/indexing new subdomains it finds in emails.

Nope, never emailed or posted to anyone. Just me (it's my solo project at the moment).

Agreed - I had to ask somebody else in the office to confirm they were seeing the same thing.

You would think this is the sort of thing that Atlassian could catch in test? Pretty fundamental, adding text.

When it comes to Jira, I’m not sure developers are in control at all. It’s a beast with its own will, and it devours itself.

NYTimes has the SecureDrop tip submission which uses Tor (see details at https://www.nytimes.com/tips)

Here is the Microsoft blog post mentioned in the nytimes article: https://blogs.microsoft.com/on-the-issues/2023/07/11/mitigat...

If you want to see the "warring magicians on South Park" scene mentioned in the article (actually they were 'psychic detectives'): https://youtu.be/22Tj_l4PcPs

This person is in North York (Canada), not New York.

Thanks, edited - point stands though.

I had to google 'The Machine Stops' - but it looks like a good read, thank you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Machine_Stops

> I also have an immortal soul, as do you.

Genuinely curious: We have a pet rescue greyhound who feels like a genuine part of the family - would you say he has a soul too? (I presume you would say my daughter's pet goldfish does not.)

I believe that all living things have souls, so yes even your goldfish

Even single-celled life, such as bacteria? (I presume "no" for viruses and prions.)

Yes for bacteria, maybe for viruses, probably not for prions. For what it's worth, I'm LDS (Mormon) and I think my view is probably pretty common amongst members of the church. That said we would technically use the term spirit instead of soul, I just used soul because it's a more commonly understood term. Basically all living things have a spirit in addition to their physical form.

So when you transplant whatever thing from a body to another body, what happens with its soul/spirit? Notice that we transplanted all of them (in humans and animals). Do we have multi spirit/soul chimeras?

Thank you for replying to my questions in good faith.
