On: New nanotherapy clears amyloid-β, reversing symptoms of Alzheimer's in mice

Perhaps you would like to volunteer as a test subject instead?

That wouldn’t work, the test subject needs a brain.

(Sorry, this is a rude joke. Truthfully my disagreement with patent is only medium-strength. I just can’t resist jokes.)

Are you a dad by any chance?

[pinkmuffinere → psygn89]

No, but I have nothing against them. Hell, I’m half dad on my father’s side! :D

This is a nonsequitur and an ad hominem.

Did you have a substantive response? Or are you just here to deliver meaningless snark?

[stickfigure → btilly]

It is neither non sequitur nor ad hominem. Look those up (or ask chatgpt to do it for you).

But in case it isn't clear: All models are inherently imperfect. That doesn't mean they aren't useful. The ideal test subject tends to complain when you propose dissecting their brain for analysis.

[btilly → stickfigure]

I will not bother to respond to you again.

Instead I will trust that those in the audience that I might care about, can judge your lies and insults correctly.
