We have different ideas to put the teeth inside the mouth. We could transplant the young tooth cells at the location of the missing tooth and let them grow inside mouth. Alternatively, we could create the whole tooth in the lab before placing it in the patient’s mouth.

I assume option 1 at least would lead to the nerve connections naturally growing as the tooth does. Regardless, this still seems in the super early lab-proof-of-concept stage so I guess the ultimate answer is we don't know yet.

On the scale of human warfare, "a few months" is pretty new. Frankly, its fairly new on the timescale of the Ukraine war at this point.

It's also not going to explode so probably less of an issue on the whole than all the UXO there...

Because the secret is where it is, not that it exists.

They literally describe it as "the size of a forearm" so that about tracks with 3-4 inches diameter.

That was the guy's dog being excited to meet new people, I remember the reddit thread.

Most claimed "hypersonic" missiles can't actually manoeuvre at those speeds so you can spot them at distance and work out where you need to send an interceptor missile. We saw this with Patriot batteries vs Kinzhal in Ukraine.

I don't think NZ has crocs, best you could do is probably a sheep.

Those would count as services which Trump explicitly excluded from his calculation, presumably so that he could claim the US has a larger trade deficit than it actually does. Although given he basically pulled the formula out of his ass anyway I'm not sure why he bothered to fudge the numbers as well.

While that is true, I do think there is an opportunity for the EU to get a real economic and diplomatic boost by strengthen ties with the traditional western allies in the Pacific now that America is torching its bridges there. Whether or not it can manage to get all member states to agree quickly enough to actually take that opportunity is a different matter though...

Euros or rmb as the new reserve currency? Place your bets now (literally if you like).

By that logic you don't think foreign currencies are real?
