So to recap: we should pave the earth for gas cars, tax EVs into oblivion for the damage they do, and call it "freedom."

Wow you just made me realize that Elon Musk net worth is roughly 30x the value of the entire MIT endowment fund.

It's an interesting idea, the biggest issue is that the BLD pathogen lives in leaf tissue and most nematophagous fungi dwell in soil or woody stems. If an endophytic fungi were found to have an adverse effect on nematodes, that might be the key to making this work. See 'phyllosphere microbiome' research for real attempts at doing this sort of thing.

This is part of the issue with the invasive Golden Oyster in North America, their mycelium paralyze and kill nematodes very efficiently which (directly or indirectly) leads to outcompetition of native fungii. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47536102

To be fair, Tesla vehicles are recalled more than any other automaker and it isn't close https://www.autoweek.com/news/industry-news/a43625242/tesla-...

These folks must really have their hands full with the 3M+ pages that were recently released. Hoping for an update once they expand this work to those new files.

I assume the 9 years here is to ensure two-term presidents will have vacated office?

Well put! I've fallen back in love with these programs myself, and partially owe it to this blog post on hn a few months ago (https://scottandrew.com/blog/2025/06/you-can-now-play-plot-o...). One of the commenters led me to this site that has an annual competition and lots of great text adventures you can play online for free (https://ifcomp.org/comp/2025).

This is nuts. If I'm understanding correctly, the M. ibiricus queen mates with a M. structor male, uses his sperm to create sterile, hybrid female worker ants for her colony, then she (astonishingly) can also lay eggs that develop into fertile M. structor males, which means she has removed her genetic material from the egg and effectively cloned the male she previously mated with.
