🐛🤖 Konstantin's latest tizzy is about #AI crawlers hogging #CPU cycles like #digital #parasites, draining resources faster than a toddler in a candy store. 🙄 Apparently, it's a groundbreaking revelation that #scraping #data uses servers... next, he'll tell us water is wet. 💧 Who knew #bots were such CPU junkies? 😂

Shitty times: "Cyclosporiasis is an illness caused by a parasitic single-celled life-form called Cyclospora cayetanensis, which can spread through food or water. The illness isn’t typically life-threatening, but a cyclospora infection can lead to severe diarrhea and “sometimes explosive bowel movements,” according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention."

#safely eradicate #parasites via #gene-drive
#medical : lice, scabies : #gene_drive
#lice (body, pubic, head) & #mites (' #scabies ') and #bedbugs have no #natural_predators , it would be fantastically amazing to have a #genedrive to #eradicate the sometimes-lethal insects. Last year, it was widely reported, one on the east coast had died -- was literally eaten alive by a parasite colony in jail. No treatment had been granted, despite repeat complaints. More recently, prisoners in #ice jails, families & children in #Gaza , and held in #Israeli #prisons have reported being deliberately #infected with scabies and lice, suffering horribly. Also #RX #treatment_resistance - much like #antibiotic_resistance w #superbugs - to conventional RX (#antiparasitics ) has skyrocketed: in late 1990s, efficacy was ~97% in USA. But a decade ago by 2016, dropped to ~35%. Today, the identical treatment is prescribed as 30 years ago. Finally, said #drugs = #neurotoxin #nerve_damage . A #genedrive could fix all of that. What is it? A gene edit which makes 100% of all offspring male: no females = inability to #reproduce and it perpetuates every generation so an edited male reproduces w nonedited female and all eggs become male, also carrying the gene-edit.... And eventually the colony depopulates entirely. A very fast & effective cure ..... versus.... a months-long hopeless battle dousing one's body in vinegar, daily, plus numerous other toxins & nerve damage. -
#Animal #diseases leapt to #humans when we started keeping #livestock
When #huntergatherers began living close to animals, the #pathogens that cause the #plague and #leprosy got closer too.
The #genomic study identified 5,486 #DNA sequences from #bacteria, #viruses and #parasites in blood remnants from bones and teeth spanning 37,000 years. #Zoonotic pathogens were detected only in remains 6,500 years old or younger.

In 1668, Francesco Redi described about 180 parasites and invented the scientific control. #Poetry #Science #History #Parasites #Redi (https://sharpgiving.com/thebookofscience/items/p1668.html)
