Dream Engineering, the Proton Radius Puzzle, and an ALS Breakthrough (EP. 27)
from From First Principles · host Krishna Choudhary and Lester Nare
Hosted by Lester Nare and Krishna Choudhary, this episode has three main stories: interactive dream engineering (yes, two-way “communication” during lucid dreaming), the proton radius puzzle finally getting resolved by a precision lab measurement, and a sobering but hopeful look at ALS—including a breakthrough “ALS-in-a-dish” model that could finally make drug screening translate to humans.SummaryDream engineering — targeted cues + induced lucidity → dream-content biasing and measurable next-day performance gains.Proton radius puzzle — precision hydrogen spectroscopy resolves the decade-long discrepancy; normal hydrogen agrees with muonic hydrogen.ALS — a predictive iPSC motor-neuron model that correlates with patient survival and reveals a promising multi-drug synergy.Rundown — pulsar near the Milky Way center, AI decoding a Roman board game, hormones + evolution signals, and AI-in-the-loop protein engineering.Support the showDonate: FFPod.com/donateFollow: @FFPod (X / Instagram / TikTok / Facebook)
