Most likely but it's funnier if you don't think about that.

And the income gap is caused in part by the education gap which is caused by the housing gap because schools are funded by property taxes.

There are a lot of systems that need to be fixed.

I will gladly listen to you ramble about your niche interest but only if it is somewhat similar to one of mine.

Another solution then: automatically download/cache a user’s most frequently played tracks. I know downloading is a premium feature or whatever but they should consider it if it would save them money.

Shown Furcotte taking it up the ice.

He passes to McSriff.

Oh, a big hit by Bobson Dugnutt! He collects the puck and sends it on to Dandleton.

Dandleton now with the puck. Across to Sweeney - But it’s picked off by Smorin!

He finds Noginly on the breakaway! Noginly - He Scores!

Noginly hits the brakes at the last second to slip it past the bumper of goaltender Mike Truk!
And the Jonsonbill Nailers take a 2-1 lead, with 3 minutes remaining in the second period.

What’s not clear to me is whether these edits will be passed on to future generations of trees. I think that’s usually not the case with CRISPR, but this article is talking about “breeding”, so maybe it is the case here. The phrase “building a better forest” is particularly disturbing as well.

My concern here is basically that we don’t want to be replacing wild forests with genetically engineered monoculture. Replacing millions of years of evolution and biodiversity with 1 or 2 “optimal” genetic lines leaves the population vulnerable to things like disease and environmental changes. A diverse population is much more resilient against these dangers, since the differences in individuals may allow some to survive where others couldn’t.

So as long as the usage is limited to specific tree farms, it’s probably no worse than other modern agricultural practices. I just hope they don’t want to replace wild forests with CRISPR trees.
