- Participants discussed the lack of a consolidated, cross-national “diff” of export-control lists; public U.S. sources such as DTIC’s CTA list and university guidance pages were cited, but no global comparative tool appears to exist.  
- A new user arriving via the Effective Accelerationism (e/acc) website asked whether the channel was the “e/acc Discord,” prompting clarification that #hplusroadmap predates e/acc and has a broader transhumanist scope.  
- Implantable-device experimentation was highlighted: one participant reported dual-frequency (13.56 MHz + 125 kHz) RFID implants and claimed embedded nanotech that accelerates wound healing, while others noted the proprietary nature of current implants and the difficulty of custom RF design.  
- Non-invasive high-bandwidth BCI demonstrations—specifically Emotiv and Neurable headsets used for gaming and VR—were contrasted with the still-low bandwidth of invasive options like Neuralink.  
- Links to cell-based neurosensor research (a 2013 thin-film lab paper and a broader 2011 review) were shared as examples of progress toward biological-machine interfaces.  
- The conversation revisited the intellectual history of Effective Altruism (EA), debating whether it originated with Eliezer Yudkowsky/SIAI or earlier figures such as Peter Singer, and critiqued EA’s pivot from “build FAI quickly” to “AI is an existential risk.”  
- A 2012 Holden Karnofsky critique of SIAI was quoted: warning against “placing the world’s largest bet on a highly complex theory” without empirical testing.  
- The recently publicized “interstitium” organ/space was discussed; some participants argued it had long been recognized in traditional medicine and questioned why mainstream anatomy overlooked it.  
- A DIY materials-science link showed how to make 4000 °F (≈2200 °C) refractory glue from water-glass and garden lime, illustrating open-source high-temperature fabrication techniques.
