Minus 是一个你一共只能发一百条消息的社交媒体（回复次数不限），作者想看看这种情况下社交会发生什么变化。
Hacker News 的评论区有很多人提出了其他的有意思的媒体形式，比如不能发人脸的 Instagram、消息发出后两周才公开的微博，还有全是机器人的 Facebook。
还有人贴了一首诗：
In an effort to get people to look
into each other’s eyes more,
and also to appease the mutes,
the government has decided
to allot each person exactly one hundred
and sixty-seven words, per day.
When the phone rings, I put it to my ear
without saying hello. In the restaurant
I point at chicken noodle soup.
I am adjusting well to the new way.
Late at night, I call my long distance lover,
proudly say I only used fifty-nine today.
I saved the rest for you.
When she doesn’t respond,
I know she’s used up all her words,
so I slowly whisper I love you
thirty-two and a third times.
After that, we just sit on the line
and listen to each other breathe.

美国海军的新武器能阻止你说话
2021-09-06 18:23 #科技
作为一种非致命性武器，这种新型电子设备能向说话的人重复自己的语音。根据《新科学家》的一篇报道，这套方案于 2019 年开发完成并获得专利，但直到最近才进入公众视野。该武器的主要思路在于令目标迷失判断力，进而丧失与其他人进行有效语音沟通的能力。此武器被称为声学播撒与干扰（acoustic hailing and disruption，AHAD）系统，能记录目标语音并在几毫秒内立即将其广播至发言者处。就像身边有个烦人的兄弟姐妹一样，这样的操作会扰乱目标的注意力，理论上阻止对方继续说话。至于设备的技术细节，我们不妨从 专利内容着手。“根据本公开的说明性实施案例，目标的语音将分两次被引导回自身，一次为立即，一次是在短暂延迟之后。这种延迟会产生延迟听觉反馈（DAF），改变说话者对自身语音的正常感知。在正常情况下，说话者在听到自己的语音时会经历轻微的延迟，而人体已经习惯了这样的反馈。通过引入另一个拥有足够长延迟的音频反馈源，说话人的注意力会被打乱，令继续发言变得极为困难。”

mRNA cancer therapy now in human trials after shrinking mouse tumours
An mRNA cancer treatment developed by BioNTech and Sanofi is being tested in people after shrinking tumours in mice, and is hoped to repeat the success of mRNA covid-19 vaccines
