Cannabidiol Inhibits SARS-CoV-2 Replication and Promotes the Host Innate Immune Response
(Preprint)
Cannabidiol (CBD)
Potential regulator of the host stress and antiviral inflammatory responses
(cannabinoid class of natural products)
Hemp, cannabis plants,
Less than 0.3% psychotropic tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)
Oral solution of CBD is a U.S. FDA approved drug
High-purity CBD inhibits SARS-CoV-2 replication in human lung epithelial cells
Pretreated human lung cells (with ACE2 receptor)
for 2 hours with CBD before infection with SARS-CoV-2.
CBD potently inhibited viral replication under nontoxic conditions
(no toxicity was observed at the effective doses)
Worked in other human lung cell lines, worked in monkey kidney cells
Tested on Wuhan strain and 3 VOCs
Their ability to infect cells was comparably inhibited by CBD
CBD or other cannabinoids?
Checked 97 to 100% pure using quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR).
No toxicity was observed for any of the CBD preparations at the ...

Anyone who missed this Speilberg film made 24 years ago MUST see this film which is much more relevant now than it was then. - JW
David, an artificial kid which is the first to have real feelings, especially a never-ending love for his "mother", Monica. Monica is the woman who adopted him as a substitute for her real son, who remains in cryo-stasis, stricken by an incurable disease. David is living happily with Monica and her husband, but when their real son returns home after a cure is discovered, his life changes dramatically.

Can't re-watch it again
I was 13-14 when I watched this movie. It's a long movie if I recall it correctly. I was so moved by it's theme, so I watched it all. I had strong feelings of sadness and sympathy towards little robot David that wanted to be a real child and to have a mom to love him. And that little bear ... I cried during some scenes. I don't ...
The Mass of Nows:
A Temporal Foundation for Inertia and Gravity

For a century, physics has lived with a quiet asymmetry. Special relativity shattered absolute simultaneity, forcing us to accept that "now" is observer-dependent—an infinite stack of "now-slices" foliating the four-dimensional block universe.
Yet when we turned to dynamics, to the origin of mass and force, we continued to treat space and time as a smooth, empty stage on which particles play. Inertia and gravity were described with exquisite mathematics, but their common cause remained mysterious. The equivalence principle told us they feel the same, but never why they are the same.
The Mass of Nows proposes a simple, radical answer: the stage is not empty. Between the infinite now-slices lies a dense plenum—the zero-point fields of every possible now, permeated by the four-dimensional extent of every particle's wave function.
Mass is not a property particles possess; it is the ...
