1. Plan to smoke a brisket for New Year's celebration

2. Get sick and try to check if I have a fever

3. Discover that all of the thermometers in my house are broken...

4. ... except for the meat probe

5. Both brisket and I need to stay wrapped and rest for a while

so excited to finally announce this to the world!

what’s a probe that can get anywhere in the brain, without destroying any tissue in the way, wiring up to existing structure to extract and inject information?

sounds like a neuron :)

I had an idea way back in college which I've long thought could be, in many ways, the ultimate BCI technology. What if instead of using electrodes, we used biological neurons embedded in electronics to communicate with the brain?

It is universally acknowledged that raw data can give more information than the high-level summaries in the figures/methods. But sometimes it is TMI
