Here's why this is so cool: "Currently, humans rely on living organisms (bacteria, yeast, plants, and animals) for the production of pharmaceuticals and food. However, living organisms are susceptible to environmental changes, breeding improvements require time, and achieving precise control is difficult. If we could build artificial systems possessing the ability to regenerate themselves, like living organisms, we could realize stable production systems that are precisely designed and controllable, like industrial products, and are unaffected by environmental factors."

And here's the actual paper: Simultaneous in vitro expression of minimal 21 transfer RNAs by tRNA array method https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-62588-y

    I read somewhere recently that trump decommissioning a bunch of satellites is going to fuck up the ozone layer too as they slowly fall out of orbit and disintegrate in the upper atmosphere.

    If anyone knowledgeable about this wants to rant about it in a little more detail, I'd be very interested.
