We use Citrix and Windows 11 in our work environment. I keep Teams open in Citrix so that I can copy links from the browser into the chat. The links then show the title for the link, I like that functionality. I also have it open on my Laptop as well (Windows 11) for doing calls and meetings. Our Citrix is slow, so I don’t do calls there. Fun thing is that often when I get a call in Teams it is automatically picked up on my laptop without me accepting it.. It is “auto-answer” functionality I tell the colleagues who don’t understand how it is possible that I pick up in 50 milliseconds :-). It is caused by Teams being open in 2 places. Weird.. Another weird issue I have with the 2 Teams instances being open is that when I get dragged into a group call and I answer, I’m in the call for 2 seconds and then the call gets disconnected. Then they try to call me again, I get disconnected again. Then I have to kill the Teams instance in Citrix to make it possible for them to add me to the call.. Another weird issue is that sometimes when I’m in a group call on my laptop and I try to look something up in my Citrix instance of Teams or even click in a chat thread, my call gets disconnected on the laptop..
My own hypothesis is that maybe our memories are stored in DNA in our brain cells. This article made my hypothesis a little more likely... Also, read the article "Microsoft experiments with DNA storage: 1,000,000,000 TB in a gram" at Ars Technica. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2016/04/micro...
You hypothesis physically implausible - for starters, the speed at which memories are made and recalled is much, much faster than the timescale in which "writing" and "reading" of DNA happens.
While you can encode a lot of data in arbitrary arrangements of a molecule (just as you can encode a lot of data in e.g. arbitrary arrangements of magnetic polarity in a dense material) if you have the right tools to do that, our cells have different tools specialized to do different processing on DNA molecules. There's no evidence to suppose that these changes in DNA are somehow controllable by external factors as opposed to random variations, and there's no evidence to suppose that these changes in DNA are readable in any other way than the usual creation of proteins required for functioning of the cell.
