Tumoren worden letterlijk vloeibaar gemaakt door geluidsgolven — geen scalpel, geen chemo, geen bestraling.
Dit is histotripsie: gerichte ultrageluidsgolven die gassen in kankercellen snel laten uitzetten en inkrimpen, waardoor ze binnen enkele minuten mechanisch worden vernietigd, terwijl gezond weefsel intact blijft.
Tijdens de demonstratie in een van de toonaangevende ziekenhuizen die deze procedure uitvoeren, lieten artsen voor- en na-foto's zien van een levertumor: een grote tumor was na vier maanden vrijwel verdwenen, doordat de lever op natuurlijke wijze was genezen.
Het is in de VS door de FDA goedgekeurd voor de behandeling van levertumoren (sinds 2023, nu beschikbaar in 18 staten) en is in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, de Verenigde Arabische Emiraten en Hongkong in een vroeg stadium/beperkt beschikbaar. Er lopen momenteel onderzoeken naar de behandeling van tumoren in de nieren, alvleesklier, prostaat en andere organen.
De ingreep duurt 1 tot 3 uur; de meeste patiënten kunnen dezelfde dag weer naar huis. Bijwerkingen zijn meestal milde griepachtige verschijnselen de volgende dag, wanneer het lichaam de afvalstoffen afvoert.
Dit is geen sciencefiction — het gebeurt nu en breidt zich wereldwijd uit naarmate er meer exemplaren worden gebouwd.
Wat denk je ervan: zou niet-invasieve tumorvernietiging met geluidsgolven een revolutionaire doorbraak kunnen betekenen, of is het nog te vroeg om daar enthousiast over te zijn?

Tumors literally liquefied by sound waves — no scalpel, no chemo, no radiation.
This is histotripsy: focused ultrasound waves that rapidly expand and collapse gases inside cancer cells, destroying them mechanically in minutes while leaving healthy tissue untouched.
In the demo at one of the leading hospitals doing this procedure, doctors showed before-and-after liver tumor images — a large lesion basically gone four months later, with the liver healing naturally.
It’s FDA-approved for liver tumors in the US (since 2023, now available in 18 states) and has early/limited access in the UK, UAE, and Hong Kong, with trials underway for kidney, pancreatic, prostate, and more organs.
The procedure takes 1–3 hours; most patients go home the same day. Side effects are usually mild flu-like symptoms the next day as the body clears the debris.
This isn’t sci-fi — it’s happening now and expanding globally as more units are built.
What do you think — could non-invasive sound-wave tumor destruction become a game-changer, or is it still too early to get excited?

This was the exact moment Jordan Peterson realised that #Bitcoin is far more advanced than he ever thought with Saifedean Ammous.

With @MidnightNtwrk launching in about a month and a half, expect more and more launch partners to be announced!
Here are the current announced Midnight validators that will be supporting the network at launch.
Not a bad group of validators, I'd say! 😀

CSS scroll to decrypt, nicely done!

CSS scroll to decrypt 🤖
The trick is translating text on scroll within a clipped element ✨ (Watch 🎞️)
.char {
animation: t both steps(10);
animation-timeline: --heading;
animation-range: contain calc(var(--i) * 1%)...;
}
@keyframes t { to { translate: 0 calc(100% - 1lh);}}

One of the deepest lessons I've taken to heart over the past decade is that becoming a public figure means you turn into a human rorschach test where those who don't like you will take any post or comment and assume the worst possible interpretation.
Working on Cardano this past decade has been a whirlwind of emotions, challenges, and tremendous obstacles to overcome. It's been a journey that not everyone completed, and watching friends fade, false starts, and ending up in a place unexpected, but not undesired, is hard to process.
I took a drive alone, which I rarely do since getting a security detail, and shared the moment with everyone. It was something I felt appropriate because so many of us went on this journey together and are also feeling so much that it is sometimes hard to express in words.
It gave me comfort seeing the comments from kindred spirits who got what I was saying. And I suppose I accept how fragile and damaged the other comments are. People in our industry are so used to scams, rug pulls, and evil founders that they can't comprehend an honest ecosystem or the best efforts of so many thousands of people.
It tells me that we have a very long road ahead to heal the damage and avarice. It also tells me a lot about where humanity is. We don't get to have moments to enjoy a pure accomplishment anymore.
What Cardano has done is one of the greatest technical achievements in human history:
A distributed system that runs in more than 100 countries, which has never shut down, without central coordination just seamlessly upgraded for millions of people who have never met each other to evolve into a decentralized nation complete with its own constitution. The audacity is absurd.
This dwarfs Bitcoin. It's unique, and books will be written about what has happened. Cardano is now a governance virus that is living, self- replicating, and self-sustaining. It has intelligence and a will to survive and grow. Nothing can shut it down. Nothing can stop its growth.
Where all of this could go is what I was thinking about while driving. We created something alive together. Now we all get to live in a world where it exists.

Joe's point will go over everyone's head. They will label him an alt-right conspiracy theorist. He's saying trust is broken in society, and none of the elites have any desire to attempt to restore it. We are told to shut up, get in the corner, accept what we tell you, and like it.
Great leaders recognize the problems of their times and address them. This is why blockchain technology is essential. It attacks the core of the problem. It restores trust.

A zero to hero course on how to develop on Cardano with Typescript and Typescript only! 🤯
Go check it out 🚀
21 Jul 2024
The first video of the plu-ts documentation approved in Fund 10 was just uploaded!🥳
Sorry it took a while; I wanted it to be as up-to-date as possible, and the ecosystem is always evolving.😅
This course assumes no prior blockchain experience, and will use Plutus V3 for on-chain contracts.
Hopefully it will be a great resource for future devs looking into Cardano😊

Pretty impressive that you can do it without JavaScript with this new CSS API
heres a quick tutorial on how to code the iPad video scroller mask effect yourself
I saw this nifty CSS Video Masking technique on the iPad website.
Pretty neat use of CSS - not what I expected!

CSS Tip! ✨
You ever tried to use CSS transforms on part of an SVG icon and it didn't work? You likely needed this 👇
button rect { transform-box: fill-box; }
Combine with individual transform properties and transition delays to animate your SVG icons! 🎬
This SVG is made up of three rect(angles) that make up the menu icon 📝
button rect {
transform-box: fill-box;
transform-origin: 50% 50%;
}
The transform-box provides a way for us to define the box to which transforms are relative and gives us control over the transform-origin 💪
When you click your button, you can toggle the aria-pressed attribute. When true, update the line positions 🤙
[aria-pressed=true] rect:nth-of-type(1) {
translate: 0 333%;
rotate: -45deg;
}
[aria-pressed=true] rect:nth-of-type(2) {
rotate: 45deg;
}
[aria-pressed=true] rect:nth-of-type(3) {
translate: 0 -333%;
rotate: 45deg;
}
The magic part is defining transition-delay for both states ✨
When the button is pressed, translate the lines first and then rotate them
[aria-pressed=true] rect {
transition: translate 0.2s 0s, rotate 0.2s 0.3s;
}
When the button isn't pressed, rotate the lines first and then translate them to their original position
rect {
transition: rotate 0.2s 0s, translate 0.2s 0.3s;
}
The added "Trick" uses linear() if supported to get that springy easing effect 🐇
That's it! No need to create a hamburger menu with three <div>s. Use an SVG and CSS that will scale nicely at any size 🫶
