Historically, results of direct ACL repair are poor. As such, it has been viewed as a substandard surgical option in comparison to ACL reconstruction, the modern gold-standard approach. However, ACL reconstruction is not without its flaws, and as technology and techniques have advanced, the idea of ACL repair has reemerged. Coming to us from Tripler Army Medical Center, Drs. Christian Cruz and Craig Bottoni share their results with ACL repair in their military population. Like studies from the past, the failure rate was high at 26%. However, those that succeeded had good to excellent results in an average return to full duty time that beats what is expected with ACL reconstruction. Drs. Cruz and Bottoni share their experience with this active population and why ACL repair may make sense in certain situations as well as when to avoid it.
I always knew that the pace of change would accelerate this year, but it's only March, and we've seen thousands of tech layoffs, bank failures, and the launch of ChatGPT and now ChatGPT 4.

On s'attaque encore à un dossier brûlant ce matin dans l'appel trop con : en un an, le prix de certains fromages a grimpé de presque 20%. Un chiffre que Martin a tout à fait mal interprété, évidemment. Il reproche à son fromager de ne pas lui avoir rajouté 20% de camembert en plus. Et si y a bien un truc avec lequel le fromager ne rigole pas, c'est le fromage, écoutez.
In this Patreon episode we jump off last week's Wordle episode to think about what it means for a game to work its way into the daily rhythms of our lives, as augmentation, versus carving out a sequester moment in our lives, as simulation. We delve into the early history of PC games and their relationship to hobby gaming, in an effort to provide a loose genealogy of the single player experience that dominates thinking in game design.

When leaders across the Department of Defense have questions about biosensing, wearable devices, or human performance data, Josh Hagen is frequently at the top of the list of experts they reach out to. He has his Bachelors in Chemical Engineering, Masters in Materials Engineering, and PhD in Materials Engineering all from the University of Cincinnati. Josh executed his graduate research in bioelectronics at the Materials and Manufacturing Directorate at Air Force Research Labs, and shortly after joined the 711th Human Performance Wing where he began his current research thrust in Human Performance Monitoring and Augmentation. His work there focused on measuring physiology utilizing wearable sensors and blood biomarkers, developing novel analytics for correlating and modeling data, and beginning to understand how to take that data to optimize performance in elite military and athletics populations. In 2018, Josh became the Director of the Human Performance Innovation Center at the Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute at West Virginia University, as well as Assistant Professor in the Department of Neuroscience. His latest role is Director of the Human Performance Collaborative where he leads a multi disciplinary team focused on human performance optimization.
Ce vendredi 6 janvier, la hausse de 4,7% des mutuelles en 2023 a été abordée par Nicolas Doze dans sa chronique La polémique dans l'émission BFM Patrimoine présentée par Cédric Decoeur sur BFM Business. Retrouvez l'émission du lundi au vendredi et réécoutez la en podcast.
« Cette fois-ci, plus question de tergiverser, s'exclame Le Figaro. Le gouvernement entame 2023 en s'attelant aux derniers préparatifs de sa réforme des retraites. Chantier majeur du quinquennat, les arbitrages seront rendus publics le 10 janvier prochain par la Première ministre, Élisabeth Borne. En attendant, elle recevra - accompagnée de son ministre du Travail, Olivier Dussopt - les partenaires sociaux ce mardi et demain mercredi pour 'poursuivre le dialogue'. » Reste que les syndicats restent vent debout contre cette réforme. De même que les Français… « 'La bataille va être très rude pour le gouvernement', a prévenu hier Frédéric Dabi, le directeur général Opinion de l'IFOP. Seuls 22 % des Français soutiennent un âge de départ légal à la retraite fixé à 65 ans, le cap initial fixé par Emmanuel Macron. Ce qui n'est pas sans rappeler que les plus gros mouvements sociaux qui ont paralysé le pays ont souvent été liés aux retraites, de 1995 à 2019 en passant par 2010. (…) Les intentions du gouvernement sont d'autant plus périlleuses, pointe encore Le Figaro, qu'elles s'inscrivent dans un contexte économique difficile. Le pic d'inflation est attendu au premier semestre 2023 par la Banque de France. Augmentation du gaz le 1er janvier, augmentation de l'électricité le 1er février prochain… Si les prix de gros baissent actuellement, les ménages n'en verront pas tout de suite la couleur. Accentuant le risque d'une colère sociale bien que le bouclier tarifaire plafonne les hausses à 15 %. 'Il ne manque qu'une étincelle', s'alarme Frédéric Dabi. » Il suffira d'une étincelle ? Justement, « la peur de l'étincelle », lance Le Parisien. « On les avait un peu oubliés, mais ils aimeraient refaire parler d'eux. Un nouvel appel à manifester a été lancé pour samedi prochain sous la bannière des Gilets jaunes. La colère des organisateurs tient en cinq mots 'Retraites – 49.3 – Inflation – Énergie – Carburant' et, comme précédemment, ils s'activent sur les réseaux sociaux pour mobiliser. Pour l'instant, le nombre de personnes s'affichant intéressées par cette journée d'action est très faible par rapport aux grandes heures du mouvement. Et les derniers appels du même type avaient fait un flop, les Gilets jaunes se réduisant à une poignée. Mais la période est électrique, comme l'ont fait remarquer récemment certains instituts de sondage. » Et « au-delà de ce qui pourrait se passer sur la réforme des retraites, le gouvernement se montre attentif à tous les signes de tension, quel que soit le secteur. Pour éviter que le feu qui couve ne se réveille. » Et d'après Les Echos, « une partie de l'entourage d'Emmanuel Macron est inquiète. Non parce qu'elle croit au grand soir syndical. Mais parce qu'elle craint la petite mèche allumée dans un coin, qui catalyse soudain et entraîne, en parlant aux tripes d'un grand nombre. Sur la retraite, un mot maladroit, une situation personnelle qui fait écho… par définition, le coup partira d'où on ne l'attendait pas. Ces derniers jours, une actualité nouvelle a vu le jour. Celle des entreprises qui baissent le rideau face aux prix de l'énergie, comme William Saurin. Ou comme ce boulanger de l'Oise qui appelle à la mobilisation après le bond de 12.000 euros de sa facture d'électricité. Un homme qui émeut, dans une activité qui parle à tous : 'C'est d'un cri d'alarme comme celui-là que tout peut partir', prévient un conseiller. » Chine : une gestion désastreuse de la pandémie de Covid A la Une de La Croix : « l'échec de Pékin » ; le quotidien catholique revient sur la flambée de Covid qui embrase la Chine et souligne que « l'échec du régime chinois sur la gestion de la pandémie est d'autant plus patent qu'il a eu recours à des moyens extrêmes. La stratégie 'zéro Covid' fut surtout une politique de libertés zéro, mêlant répression, hyper-surveillance et désinformation. Enfermer les malades – jusqu'à parfois les emmurer ! – n'a fait que retarder la diffusion du virus. Trois ans après l'apparition de ce dernier, la Chine n'a pas su développer un vaccin efficace. Tout cela contredit la propagande d'un régime qui a longtemps présenté les démocraties comme incapables de répondre efficacement au défi du Covid. » Algérie : la fuite en avant répressive du pouvoir Et puis ce coup de gueule du Monde à propos de la situation en Algérie… « La calamiteuse surenchère autoritaire du régime » : c'est le titre de l'éditorial du quotidien du soir. « La récente arrestation du journaliste Ihsane El Kadi, directeur et fondateur de Radio M et du magazine 'Maghreb Emergent', illustre une fuite en avant répressive du pouvoir, désastreuse pour l'image de l'Algérie, estime Le Monde. L'admiration qu'avait inspirée le spectacle de foules pacifiques et joyeuses du Hirak, qui avait radicalement renouvelé le regard porté sur l'Algérie, n'est plus qu'un souvenir en charpie. L'heure est à la sidération, soupire encore Le Monde, face à la fuite en avant répressive d'un régime en pleine revanche après avoir craint pour sa survie. »
For the brand new year we have a brand new topic we've never talked about–lips! A lip lift is a procedure where the skin between the nose and upper lip is shortened to reduce wrinkles and make the upper lip look more full. Lip augmentation is where implants are used to change the appearance of the upper, lower or both lips. This can also be done with fillers or fat grafting.

Doctothon lance Dosumani le 9 et 10 décembre / Le face à face spécial sur les arrêts de travail en nette augmentation en France
Les Franciliens ont découvert le nouveau prix de l'abonnement mensuel du Passe Navigo, pour prendre les transports en Île-de-France. Celui-ci va augmenter de 12%, soit environ 10 euros par mois. En a-t-on vraiment pour notre argent ? "Pour l'usager, 12% c'est beaucoup", estime Bruno Gazeau, président national de la Fédération des usagers des transports. "Mon angoisse, c'est à la fois le prix et la qualité de service. Actuellement, les services publics sont très désorganisés". "Depuis la rentrée, on a un bus sur dix qui ne fonctionne pas chaque jour", déplore Grégoire de Lasteyrie, conseiller régional d'Île-de-France et maire de Palaiseau. "Nous demandons à la RATP et à la SNCF de revenir au plus vite possible à une offre nominale à 100%".
La Somalie connaît sa pire sécheresse depuis 40 ans. Selon l'ONU, elle a fait 1,2 million de déplacés et affecte presque 8 millions de personnes, soit la moitié des Somaliens. Reprise aux islamistes shebabs en 2012 par les forces gouvernementales et de l'Union africaine, Baidoa est l'épicentre de cette crise. La ville est un refuge pour des centaines de milliers de déplacés qui s'y entassent dans l'espoir de recevoir de l'aide humanitaire inaccessible dans les zones sous le joug jihadiste. Résultat : la moitié des 800 000 habitants de Baidoa sont des déplacés. Leurs besoins sont immenses. Et les cas de malnutrition sont en constante augmentation. De notre envoyée spéciale à Baidoa, Une dizaine de femmes patientent, leurs enfants chétifs dans les bras. Elles sont venues consulter pour malnutrition. Le docteur Allan Nur les reçoit. « Tout ça, ce sont de nouvelles admissions. Ces femmes sont venues pour que leurs enfants soient examinés et puissent bénéficier de notre programme. » Le docteur Allan Nur nous montre le registre des consultations : un tiers des enfants reçus souffrent de malnutrition aigüe. « On reçoit environ 50 à 60 enfants atteints de malnutrition sévère par semaine. Et depuis juillet, le nombre de cas ne fait qu'augmenter, mois après mois. » Des formes graves de malnutrition Selon l'ONG Save the Children, ces enfants, atteints de la pire forme de malnutrition, sont cinq fois plus nombreux à Baidoa qu'en janvier dernier. Beaucoup parmi eux présentent des complications : rougeoles, problèmes respiratoires ou faiblesse musculaire. Les cas les plus graves sont suivis dans l'unité des soins intensifs. Sur l'un des lits se trouve Harrawmow Isaac Ibrahim. La jeune femme est déplacée à cause de la sécheresse, elle veille sur son garçon de 2 ans. « J'étais une fermière. Je cultivais des haricots et du sorgho. Mais la sécheresse a tout détruit. On n'avait plus ni eau ni nourriture. Autrefois, je nourrissais mes enfants avec du lait de vache ou en allaitant, mais je ne pouvais plus. Et depuis que je suis déplacée, je suis aussi trop faible pour allaiter et je n'ai pas assez d'argent pour acheter du lait. » Une famine à venir dans les prochains mois En septembre, l'ONU a tiré la sonnette d'alarme et prédit une probable famine à Baidoa d'ici au mois de décembre. Pour l'heure, la mobilisation des humanitaires, même sans ressources suffisantes, semble avoir permis d'éviter le pire. Mais Adam Abdelmoula, coordinateur humanitaire des Nations unies dans le pays, prévient : le risque n'est pas écarté. « On estime désormais que les seuils de famine pourraient être franchis plutôt entre les mois de mars et de juin prochains, mais seulement si on arrive à maintenir le niveau actuel de réponse humanitaire. Et c'est une condition qui n'est pas évidente à remplir, car cela signifie qu'il nous faut trouver les moyens financiers pour cela. » En 2011, rappelle le coordinateur, la majorité des 250 000 Somaliens morts de faim sont décédés avant que la famine ne soit officiellement déclarée.

Alors que les extrémistes et les suprématistes juifs – soutenus par les colons – pourraient obtenir davantage de portefeuilles ministériels en Israël, en Cisjordanie occupée, la violence des colons explose. Dans la plupart des cas, les auteurs ne sont pas poursuivis. Chez les Palestiniens monte un sentiment d'injustice et l'idée d'une violence commise en toute impunité. De notre envoyée spéciale, C'était un vendredi après-midi, fin juin, à Iskaka, un village à côté de Naplouse, au nord de la Cisjordanie occupée. Ali Harb, 28 ans, était sur ce petit terrain bordé d'oliviers – celui de sa famille – avec d'un côté, une vue imprenable sur la vallée et de l'autre, les barbelés de la colonie israélienne d'Ariel. C'est là qu'il a été tué, poignardé par un colon, raconte son père, Hassan Harb. « C'est la première fois que je reviens ici depuis la mort de mon fils. Ce jour-là, j'étais malade, j'avais de la fièvre, quand j'ai reçu un coup de téléphone de nos voisins agriculteurs pour nous dire que des colons étaient sur nos terres, qu'ils planifiaient d'y rester, de mettre des tentes pour s'y installer ». Hassan demande alors à deux de ses fils, Ali et Ahmad, d'aller voir. Ils partent avec un de leurs oncles. Sur place, il y a des « jeunes des collines », ces adolescents religieux et violents, accompagnés d'un adulte, la quarantaine. En voyant arriver le groupe de Palestiniens, les colons déguerpissent. Puis ils reviennent, avec l'armée israélienne. Ali s'adresse à cette dernière, demande aux soldats de les faire partir, lorsqu'un des colons, le plus âgé, se détache du groupe et s'approche de lui. « Le colon a sorti un couteau de derrière lui. Au début, il a essayé de poignarder le cousin d'Ali, il a réussi à l'éviter, puis il a poignardé Ali, raconte le père du jeune garçon. C'était un couteau d'environ 6 cm, qui lui est allé directement au cœur, ce qui a brisé une de ses côtes et touché son artère principale, celle qui alimente le cœur… C'est ce qui a provoqué sa mort. Et lorsqu'il s'est écroulé, l'armée israélienne a empêché son frère et ses cousins de le sauver. » Plusieurs mois après, malgré les caméras de surveillance, malgré la station de police à proximité, à l'intérieur de la colonie, Hassan désespère que le coupable soit jugé et le précise : « ces colons peuvent agir en toute impunité ». Cette année, ces attaques, liées à la violence des colons, sont récurrentes et très variées. Elles peuvent être physiques ou ciblées contre les biens des Palestiniens, comme des véhicules, des maisons, des troupeaux. « Elles ont plus que doublé par rapport à l'année dernière », explique Anthony Dutemple, de l'ONG Première Urgence Internationale. Parfois, ces attaques sont même coordonnées entre différentes colonies ou avant-postes, ou se font en pleine journée, souvent avec la police et l'armée israélienne à proximité, comme l'a confirmé un rapport de Breaking The Silence publié l'été dernier. Il y a aussi les menaces avec des armes des colons sur les Palestiniens, le harcèlement moral et psychologique au quotidien, poussant les communautés palestiniennes à partir de leurs terres. « Et cela fait vraiment partie de la stratégie des autorités israéliennes d'occuper le territoire », ajoute Anthony. « Il y a deux ans, on parlait d'annexion formelle, cette annonce de Benyamin Netanyahou qui n'a finalement pas eu lieu. Mais nous, sur le terrain, on estime que l'annexion, de fait, est là : la population palestinienne n'a plus accès à ses ressources et ses moyens d'existence sont mis en péril. » +53% par rapport à 2021, selon le bureau de la coordination des affaires humanitaires des Nations unies (Ocha). Entre janvier et fin octobre 2022, quatre Palestiniens ont été tués par des colons, 241 blessés par des colons, 1 669 blessés par l'armée pendant des incidents liés à la violence des colons. À cela s'ajoutent 596 véhicules (170% de plus qu'en 2021) et 9 445 arbres vandalisés par des colons. Cette violence est quasi systématiquement filmée, documentée, par les Palestiniens eux-mêmes, par des volontaires et des défenseurs des droits ou encore des caméras de surveillance, mais qui, dans presque l'entièreté des cas, ne mène à aucune condamnation ou jugement des auteurs. Selon l'organisation israélienne Yesh Din, 97% des plaintes des Palestiniens restent sans suite.

I'm Brian Friel, developer relations at Phantom, and I'm super excited to introduce our guests today, Albert Chen. Albert is the co-founder, CEO and CTO of Genopets, a revolutionary note, free-to-play NFT game that's on mobile and is already at 300,000 plus users. Albert, welcome to the show.Albert (00:34):Hey, thanks Brian. Great to be here. Huge fan of Phantom as well.Brian (00:38):Excited to be talking with you as well, big fans of what you guys have been up to. I think there's a lot of folks listening to this podcast who may have heard what Genopets is. They made a scene, a few Genopets flying around on Twitter. But for the uninitiated, can you give us a little overview of who you are and then also what is Genopets?Albert (00:56):Yeah, so Genopets is a free-to-play move-to-earn NFT mobile game that makes it fun and rewarding to live an active lifestyle. A Genopet is a digital pet that you own and it evolves and grows as you become more active in life. The steps that you take every day powers your journey through the Genoverse as you explore battle and evolve, and you have the ability to earn and create NFTs while you play it.Brian (01:22):That's super cool. And so this is all tied to mobile, is that correct? Essentially you're able to track steps, an end user, how active they are throughout the day and have that influence the actual NFT?Albert (01:34):Yeah, exactly. So we are a native mobile app that you can now download from the app store for iOS and the Google Play store for Androids. We have a clear separation of concern in terms of our mobile app and our web app. So we also have a web app, and that's our web 3.0 platform that you can access through the Phantom browser actually. We made it mobile first so it's compatible on mobile devices as well as your desktop. These two experiences are separated for good reason. The mobile game experience is targeted towards any gamers and/or any fitness fanatic because it's very easy to download and just get started.(02:12):Once you download the app, you can summon a Genopet by answering a survey. Then once you get your Genopet, you can start leveling up and evolving it and caring for it. It's not until you want to really explore the other side, the NFT side of the game that you have to create a wallet, connect your account on our web app, and you can buy a Habitat and do crafting. We consider web 3.0 an expansion pack to the mobile game experience.Brian (02:37):I love the phrasing of that. It reminds me a lot of something like a Tamagotchi if you were around in the '90s like that long ago, or Pokemon kind of being tied in with this pet that can do battles, but you have to care for it and it's reflective of you and you kind of develop your own personal relationship and. I think that makes a lot of sense to kind of tie on the web 3.0 NFT component as an added on bonus to that.Albert (03:01):Yeah, absolutely. It's funny that you mentioned Tamagotchi because the first phase of our game loop, we literally internally call it the Tamagotchi loop because it's about growing your pet, caring for it, and then when we come out with Augmentation, you can customize your pet to look however you want. So that completes a whole game loop of what we call the Tamagotchi loop.Brian (03:20):That's super cool. You mentioned kind of the early days there, you guys calling it the Tamagotchi loop early on. I'm curious to hear maybe a little more before we dive into Genopets about your background specifically. You have a really unique framing of, you have this web 2.0-like game with a web 3.0 expansion pack. What is your background specifically and what led you to want to build a game in this way? And then why also did you choose Solana?Albert (03:44):Me personally, I've been a web developer since, I mean as early as 1999. Back then I was just building fun web experiences. I guess back then you could call it web 1.0. We wrote Perl scripts and that ran on websites that allowed us to build discussion boards and guess books and such. That's where I really came from. And then I started doing consumer products such as houseware goods. There was a brand that my co-founder, Ben and I, created called Unbrands. It was a line of products that allow you to hang anything on the wall anywhere without the damaging your wall. So we did that and we had a whole eCommerce layer to it, and this was in the early 2010s. And because of that, we've been working together for over a decade now and got into blockchain together in 2017.(04:32):One of our dreams was to solve this crisis that we see in the next 50 years of humanity, which is a lot of jobs that used to have value are slowly taken over by Ai and we want to be able to allow people to earn passive income through one way or another.(04:50):When we discovered blockchain, we thought it was a really good way of unlocking that. So in 2018 we had a project on the EOS blockchain called GeneOs. GeneOS was a decentralized health data marketplace. Essentially we wanted to create this rental marketplace for health data that allows people to monetize it and rent it to pharmaceutical companies or researchers that needed. We won the EOS Global Hackathon in 2018.(05:16):What ended up happening was we realized that that model was too top down instead of bottom up. There wasn't a lot of demand for this kind of data, at least not now in the technology for it. It doesn't exist yet, it requires a lot of progress and zero knowledge, machine learning and stuff. So we closed that down in 2020. And Ben, my co-founder, had the idea that the health data doesn't have to be boring, it can be something fun. What if it was represented as a pet? And back then we originally, our idea was that your health data would be an NFT and your NFT, it was a more boring version of NFT where your NFT would just be metadata on what your health records look like. But it was his idea that we can make that health record look like an actual pet that evolves as you become healthier.(06:06):So that was a breakthrough. And in 2021 we decided to relaunch the project, and this time on Solana because when we were evaluating different blockchains in the spring and summer of 2021, Solana was just coming up and I was very impressed with the TPS and the community that was growing behind it at the time. And to this day, I still think it's one of the biggest successes in Layer 1 history.Brian (06:28):That's so cool. That framing too of using health data and making it actually fun and something that turning it from this kind of dull dead thing that you don't care about to now it's represented as this ever evolving pet that you have an emotional attachment to, you care about, you want to continue to nurture that. That's a really cool framing. I love that.(06:47):I guess turning back to Genopets now, can you give us a sense of who your users are, maybe where they're distributed in the world?Albert (06:55):Yeah, we have a pretty global audience. Everyone around the world, pretty much every country you can think of. But our largest communities are in Japan, US, France, Russia, and India actually. This is just by the amount of activity that happens in our Discord. We have a fairly large Discord community by our players. The demographics is interesting. When we did a survey a few months ago, 70% of our players did not have any prior crypto experience before coming onto our platform. So we really think that web 3.0 gaming is going to be the springboard to get people onboarded into web 3.0.Brian (07:32):Oh, wow.Albert (07:33):We call it a Trojan horse of web 3.0.Brian (07:35):Yeah, I've definitely heard that Trojan Horse analogy before. That's pretty wild. 72%?Albert (07:41):70%. Every time that we measure this metric, it's actually going up. So there's a metric that we measure internally, which is what percentage of our players have never touched the blockchain while playing Genopets. And right now it's 80% as of last week.Brian (07:55):Wow, that's wild. I'm curious. You have this global audience across a number of different countries. I'd say we see as well in Phantom, like the US, certain parts of EU and certain parts of Asia as well are like there's some fairly crypto native communities there. But then as you're expanding that global reach, it doesn't surprise me that you're saying almost 70 to 80% of folks aren't touching blockchains. How do you think about that when you're designing a game that has these economic components as well? I mean, I know that you guys are free-to-play. Is that a big factor into that decision making and how do you kind of think high level about creating an in-game economy?Albert (08:33):From the very beginning, free-to-play has been one of the key pillars of how we wanted to build this economy. The thinking is that there's a whole other meta game inside of Genopets that's optional for the player, and that's the ability to become a merchant in this world. What that means is when you're playing the mobile Genopets' game, you don't have to think about how your items are received. If you want to level up your pet a little faster or you want that really cool weapon or really cool body part that we call Augment, you can just buy it directly on the mobile app. And on the other side of that transaction will be the merchant class player that cares a little bit more about the earning aspect of the game that are a little more crypto savvy. They can then log into our web 3.0 portal, connect their phantom wallet, buy a Habitat, and start crafting all kinds of items that people can use in the game.(09:30):So we like to call this the seller central, as an Amazon, the seller central of our game experience. So you have the demand side of the economy, which is made up of all players in the world, the same as any free-to-play game. And then you have the supply side, which in traditional gaming would be the game publisher, but here it's a little different, right? So we have the players create items for other players to consume and we take a fee in that.(10:00):The idea is that when you start enabling that, then you kind of get into a flywheel where if more people play, then more people will want to craft items and then there will be more content for people to consume and drives the other side of economy and you have this network effect that happens. Now, the end goal here is that through the governance of the actual game itself, the community can create new items themselves with stats that people vote on and move them into the game and complete this entire loop and allow this ecosystem to grow by itself.Brian (10:31):That's super cool. You mentioned a couple terms in there, I just want to hit on real quick. You mentioned crafting, which I feel like is this whole extra element to the game. There's Habitats as well. Habitats though being distinct NFTs separate from your actual Genopets for myself and also for folks listening as an end user, if I wanted to come and check out Genopets today, what should I be going to first? How do I kind of orient myself in this world where there's all these different components?Albert (10:57):Your Genopet is the main character that you use to play this game. It does not have to be an NFT. If you want, you can just download the app and you can create a Genopet. Later on, we will enable the ability to mint these Genopets as NFTs on chain after it reaches a certain level.(11:14):But if you want to go one step further into the game economy, the next step is looking at Habitats. So what Habitats are, they are NFTs where your Genopets can live in. But its main ability is the ability to mint SFTs and NFTs. It can convert the energy that you gain by walking in the game into what we call our KI token. The KI token is the main utility token in our ecosystem that drives everything.(11:42):So this mechanic is already out on Mainnet. We have tens of thousands of people using these on chain programs every day. What's coming in the next few weeks is the crafting part of it. So right now your Habitats can refine crystals every day, and these are building blocks of the game. Eventually these crystals can be combined to create Augments for your pet or toys or energy boosts, and these are items that you must have a Habitat in order to create.(12:11):We've created this program, an on chain program, that utilizes randomness to create what we call on chain loot box system. So every time you craft it, we have a bunch of recipes. The discovery of the recipe components is fun in itself, but the main mechanic that we're using here is that every time you craft, there's a different possibility of what item you end up getting. You can get a rare item or a common item or an uncommon item. It's almost like a digital booster pack. So components or ingredients in, item out. That's what crafting is. And then the end item, you can use endgame for energy boosts or you can use it to customize your Genopet, change your color of your Genopet, or add attributes, add attacks or defenses, what we call moves when we eventually launch battle.Brian (12:59):That's super cool. And then all these that you just mentioned, you mentioned the energy boosts, a lot of these are SFTs on Solana today?Albert (13:06):That's correct, yeah. So the only NFTs that we have right now are Genopets and Habitats, and that's because they're all unique. Items are SFTs because they are semi-unique, let's say. So like earth crystals for example, one earth crystal should not be different from another earth crystal. So to save for a variety of reasons, engineering reasons, enforcement of training fees and all of that, we prefer and we decided to build all of these items as SFTs and it's been working very well for us.Brian (13:39):That's super cool. I'm curious, and this might be getting too much into sharing deep roadmap stuff, but given that these things are on chain, they're SFTs, there's a world in which they could compose with other programs outside of Genopets, have you guys thought about that as well? Maybe having crossovers with other games or other DeFi platforms of some kind?Albert (14:00):Oh yeah, absolutely. It's a huge part of why we even built this economy on chain, right? Without the composability aspect of it, there is no point. We could just use a private database. Right now we are in talks with some DeFi protocols. I mean the whole SFT trading platform was built on Serum with the help of Magic Eden. So Magic Eden composes Serum where our SFTs are trading. And because they are SFTs, they can be probably put into an AMM a lot easier and you can probably do some kind of staking with it. So that's all future roadmap stuff and we're going to see where it goes. But yes, absolutely. Composability. I know it's something that everybody says, but it is definitely a huge part of what we do.Brian (14:43):Yeah, that's super cool. Exciting to think that you guys are thinking along those lines as well. I guess switching back, you mentioned KI token as well. We hit on it briefly with the fact that you guys are free-to-play, but do you have any thoughts on maybe more broadly for if there's a game developer listening to this, any sort of principles you're keeping in mind for when you're developing kind of a sustainable in-game economy? We've seen a few examples with Stepn that gain massive adoption quickly and then fizzle out. I'm curious, did you guys have any kind of guiding principles that guide you on this journey?Albert (15:15):So I think sustainable at game economy is something that everyone's trying to figure out and nobody has really been able to get it correct yet. Our high level vision is what I was describing earlier. If you make it so that the economy is based on people trading with one another instead of the money being paid in by newcomers into the ecosystem, then it can be more sustainable. However, it's not as simple as saying just removing growth from the equation and all is good. You still need growth, but it has to be sustainable in a way that growth contributes to the game economy in a slow but steady manner.(15:53):So one of the things that we designed in the very beginning is that if you want to earn KI tokens, you have to pay into the economy somehow. So this whole concept of free-to-play to earn doesn't really exist in the sense that you can earn for free. You can play for free, but if you want to earn, then you have to invest in either a Habitat or someone has to terraform, that's the word we use for create. Someone has to create a Habitat for you to rent and convert your energy into KI tokens. So that's number one, which is you always have to have some kind of pay in.(16:29):The second part is making sure that the growth is sustainable. So we constantly measure our emissions versus burn. We've been doing a decent job at it. I think we are still under, in terms of the net KI emitted in the last two months. So we've been live, our earning part of the game has been live for two months now. We've had some ups and downs. We went through a three week period where it was a very high net emissions. Then we started changing some rules around.(16:57):One of the biggest rule changes that we made was that level 1 pets cannot earn as much energy as let's say a level 22 pet. Before, it was already the case, but the difference wasn't that high. And that meant that you didn't have to put in that much work to start earning the maximum amount, which was not sustainable. Once we've changed that, our emission schedule decreased quite significantly and it's looking fairly healthy. But as I said earlier, you can't just take growth out of the equation. We do have to still grow users. We still have to introduce crafting to make sure that there's demand for the content. And at the end of the day, if you have growing demand for content, then it would be sustainable in the long term.Brian (17:40):It's such a tricky problem that's above my head. It's all the gig of brains are figuring out the engineering, the economy around this. But it's really exciting that you guys are already seeing this kind of organic growth and excitement around this. I think it makes a ton of sense.Albert (17:53):Yeah. And it's super hard. Everything is hard mode right now because we're in deep winter, so no one's really speculating. No one's trying to buy thousands of dollars in NFTs thinking they'll make their money back in a few months. So you really have to get the fundamentals correct. Yeah, it's very different from Axie Infinity or a Stepn, the times have changed.Brian (18:14):Yeah, yeah. You guys get a chance to lay the right foundation though in the bear market. There's been many stories of that, even Solana being one of them, that generational crypto companies are built in the bear market.(18:26):I guess you hit on it a little bit with some experiments you guys are thinking around composability. Is there anything else that you can share with us for what's next on your guys' roadmap?Albert (18:35):Yeah, so like I mentioned earlier, I think on chain crafting is going to be a huge one. Once on chain crafting is out, there's a lot of composability elements that you can create just on chain. We'll leave that up to the creativity of the community. That's the biggest one because we needed to start completing our Tamagotchi loop, which ends with augmentation. Augmentation is when you craft an item that has a body part, you can switch out the body part of your pet and immediately reflect on chain and end game. So that's the biggest thing that's going to happen in the next two, three months. And then after that it's battle. So we're going to allow people to... I mean, once you start customizing your pet and your pet looks super cool, what's next? You obviously want to compete with other people. That will be our battle loop. The battle loop is something that we really look forward to because that will complete the second phase of our game, and that is likely when we will start ungating the game for the rest of the world.Brian (19:32):Is this battle loop that you're foreshadowing here, is this turn-based battle? Or is this more live action pet battles?Albert (19:38):It's turn-based battle. You can think of it as small mini games, reaction games, and then it's partly skilled based and then partly attribute based. So the stronger a pet is, the easier it is for them to win and battle. And there's going to be elemental parts of it as well so there's some strategy involved.Brian (19:57):I love it. Young gamer me right now is itching to get my hands on some Genopets right now, so we'll have to follow after the show on that.Albert (20:05):Yeah, that would be awesome.Brian (20:06):Well, Albert, this has been an awesome discussion. Really appreciate you coming on and sharing the vision of Genopets and what you guys have all been up to. One closing question we always ask all our guests, and I want to know from you as well, is who is a builder that you admire in the Solana ecosystem?Albert (20:21):Yeah, so that's a great question because there's so many great builders in Solana, but there's one guy that I've worked with in the past for our KI token launch actually that I greatly admire, and that's Noah Prince from Strata Protocol. I just think he has a giga brain that's able to figure out one of the hardest things in the token launch ecosystem. And he did it so well and I haven't seen a protocol that's done it better since then. And when we worked together, there were some small bugs that we had when we were using their protocol and he just hopped on it right away and within a few hours fixed everything, submitted a pull request, and then we were able to pull from that and launch our KI token pretty quickly. So I got to say it's him.Brian (21:05):Oh, that's awesome. So you guys used Strata actually to launch KI?Albert (21:08):Yeah. Yeah, we launched KI on Strata. It was an interesting one because you never know what's going to happen. It was a three day sale. And the first two days there were almost no volume and you're like, "Ugh, God, we're not going to sell out. This is bad." And it turns out every, it's like a game of chicken. Everyone's just waiting. And as soon as somebody start buying, we had almost 2 million sold in a few hours. It's a crazy journey.Brian (21:32):Yeah. Market wide incentives like that happening in real time, it's pretty cool to see. And I totally echo the sentiment around him as well. I think he goes by @redacted_noah on Twitter. He was actually paramount to work with me when we were first getting SFT support in Phantom actually earlier this year as well.Albert (21:48):Oh, awesome. I didn't know that. That's fantastic.Brian (21:51):He's everywhere at once. We'll have to tag him on Twitter to let him know that. Shout out.Albert (21:56):Awesome. Yeah.Brian (21:57):Well, Albert, this has been awesome. Really appreciate you coming on. Where can folks go to learn more about Genopets?Albert (22:02):Yeah, they can go on our website, genopets.me or follow our Twitter, @Genopets, and they can get all the information there.Brian (22:10):Awesome. Love it. Albert Chen, founder, CEO, CTO of Genopets, thanks for coming on.Albert (22:15):Thanks Brian. That was fun.

Huberman Lab Podcast Notes Key Takeaways The human brain is shaped differently depending on sounds you are exposed to in utero and throughout the first years of brain developmentIt's probably best to skip the white noise machine to help your babies sleep – our brain is structured to hear environmental noises; constant white noise exposure may lead to delaysWhether you are right-handed or left-handed is strongly genetically determinedThe earlier, more intense, and longer you can have exposure to a second language – the better; human interaction allows for greater specialization of the languageMemory is widely distributed across the brain which is good because even in the event of head injury or illness requiring surgery, memory is generally preservedNew technologies are being studied to give paralyzed and nonverbal patients a chance to communicate again through the use of electrodes connected from the brain to a computer which uses AI to translateRead the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgMy guest is Eddie Chang, MD, a neurosurgeon and professor of neurological surgery at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and the co-director of the Center for Neural Engineering & Prostheses. We discuss the brain mechanisms underlying speech, language learning and comprehension, communicating human emotion with words and hand gestures, bilingualism and language disorders, such as stuttering. Dr. Chang also explains his work developing and applying state-of-the-art technology to decode speech and using that information and artificial intelligence (AI) to successfully restore communication to patients who have suffered paralyzing injuries or “locked in syndrome.” We also discuss his work treating patients with epilepsy. Finally, we consider the future: how modern neuroscience is overturning textbook medical books, the impact of digital technology such as smartphones on language and the future of natural and computer-assisted human communication.

It was a busy week in the world of artificial intelligence! Mike and Paul are back on The Marketing AI Show to discuss three AI hot topics in the news. They'll add their take on these developments and what it means for marketers and business leaders—and perhaps with an idea or two on how the Marketing AI Institute could support you. Gartner came out with a report identifying seven technology disruptions that will transform sales over the next five years. Gartner says sales leaders need to recognize, prioritize and respond to these disruptions: generative artificial intelligence (AI), digital twin of the customer, augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR), machine customers, digital humans, emotion AI, and multimodality. Next, It was a good week for generative AI funding. Stability AI, the world's first community-driven, open-source artificial intelligence (AI) company, raised $101 million in funding. Additionally, Jasper secured a $125 million series A funding round at a $1.5 billion valuation.
