Yep when I first joined I thought it stood for main Instance.

The technology behind it isn't new, but The Thought Emporium is a Youtuber who:

1: DIY-d a genetically modified virus to cure his own lactose intolerance (successfully)

2: Is currently working on a biological computer that runs on animal neurons.

3: Has livestreams where the viewers submit ideas (like making tomatoes spicy) and he designs DNA to accomplish it.

Also he helped shut down a scam health product that contained radioactive material which isn't particularly futuristic (actually it reminds me of the "radiation is good for you" craze in the early 20th century) but I wanted to mention it anyways.

Cool, where did you find all those pixellated icons?

The contrast between the super slick minimalistic icons and the bright green Duolingo owl is absolutely hilarious.

I've never used Duolingo, what's that widget for?
