It's not like they can partner with a big pharma company, or publish results even if they do find something out 09:39 < muurkha> there are surely many countries that have no laws on human experimentatioj 09:39 < muurkha> *n 09:40 < muurkha> and the PRC seems to be doing organ harvesting, and is extremely interested in improving human medicine, and can certainly partner with a big pharma company 09:40 < yashgaroth> maybe they inherit some from a UN treaty, but some tiny African state has bigger issues than insourcing an entire experimental medical program 09:41 < yashgaroth> yeah China is probably doing some stuff, since they have the authoritarianism and good biochem corpus, but they won't be publishing it anywhere, even internally 09:42 < yashgaroth> you know the old saying, what happens in Tianjin Military Hospital #8 stays in Tianjin Military Hospital #8 09:43 < yashgaroth> modern medicine still relies on the findings of Nazi experimentation in eg hypothermia (and many more fucked up topics). Maybe some from Unit 731 as well, but they seemed fixated on plague and that because obsolete real quick after antibiotics 09:44 < yashgaroth> became*, rather 09:48 -!- taek42 [~quassel@2a01:4f9:6a:214f::2] has joined #hplusroadmap 10:23 -!- masamune [~masamune@user/masamune] has joined #hplusroadmap 11:43 -!- cthlolo [~lorogue@77.33.23.154.dhcp.fibianet.dk] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] 14:24 -!- mrdata [~mrdata@user/mrdata] has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds] 14:37 -!- mrdata [~mrdata@user/mrdata] has joined #hplusroadmap 17:09 < L29Ah> https://0x0.st/HscA.jpg 18:00 < superkuh> http://erewhon.superkuh.com/pictures/text-editor-wars.jpg 19:47 -!- CryptoDavid [uid14990@id-14990.uxbridge.irccloud.com] has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity] 19:49 -!- yashgaroth [~ffffffff@2601:5c4:c780:6aa0:8189:d103:f0d1:2d6d] has quit [Quit: Leaving] 23:54 < fenn> "I think I’m a simulator, not a human.
