[@karlfisher1864]

Back in the '40s some food scientist gave antibiotics to chickens and it turned out they got more meat per bird. It isn't done for treating disease, they feed it to the whole flock. Unfortunately, this breeds antibiotic resistance and should not be done in a wise practice. Greed wins out over good practice. Karl

[@RubelliteFae]

"Uncomfortable" is a pretty soft way of describing, "so tight they can't turn around and sometimes their feet grow around the bars of the cages."

[@tychoMX]

@@karlfisher1864 it's for PREVENTING disease. Because birds live in such crowded and unsanitary conditions, they easily develop infections. Preemptive use of antibiotics allows for increased profit by producing more kg of poultry meat per invested $ (animal activity and feed, housing and harvesting all decrease in cost with more intensive coops).

One more reason to boycott animal products! The overuse of antibiotics in animal agriculture will produce a pathogen which cannot be cured by antibiotics. It is just a matter of time. Animal agriculture likes to use so much to make the animals grow faster, and to allow them to be in crowded conditions. That also increases profits and the chances of more epidemics and pandemics.

@@liberatedwoman I am glad we agree that animal agriculture is a disaster. Could you clarify what you mean about pet food? Speculation is fine, but only because it can lead to scientific studies.

The accuracy of human DNA tests is related to having so many samples studied that the common diminutive traits between people from certain parts of the world can be identified.

Dogs and Humans share about 84% of their DNA...

Hm-m-m, that explains my ears....🐶

Yes, the issue lies in that the protocols for the analysis don't filter for pets only, they just match small regions of the sequences. The DNA strands are so many and so large that since the 70s the protocols have been designed to overcome the issue of size. This means that you usually have a high specificity with high throughput, given the conditions the DNA extraction was succesfully done from the organism that you wanted. A complete DNA sequencing of the genome of a single organism is at around 400 dollars, and will give you such an enormous quantity of information that any software analysis will be overwhelming. So the "solution" has to design protocols to simplify flag search of sequences, discarding the rest, and the algorithms are comparative in bulk, not for any specific minute variation, which is actually fine at the end of the day.

[@rendratvandonkereschrijver2912]

yes but if there kits were real they be using different primers which mean there shouldn't be a reaction to human DNA

The 'dog dna' news reporter was a hilarious graphic but so what the Colbert 'Monty Python style head' eating chick fillet

Krispy Kreme should be partnering with more Coffee Bean cafes. There's one or two of these collabs in the city I live and this is pure heaven.

Shriek and banshee in the same sentence...there is hope for humanity.

Btw, from the "other side of the aisle" . . . I'm glad the "meanwhile" segments are politics-free. I can still tune in and laugh sometimes. Thank you.

CFA is too expensive now. $15 for a meal is insane!

😂 Great job on the graphics, as always!😁

Wow the song at the very end was a deep cut. Martha My Dear

[@tomyoung8229]

Good catch. 🎶

Ohhhhhhh, loneliness and cheeseburgers and Krispy Kreme Doughnuts are a dangerous mix
