Radiation exposure is cumulative. It's a small increase in your risk of developing cancer but it's not zero.

Millimeter wave scanners pose essentially no risk of cancer since they're non-ionizing.

They can activate melanocytic nevus (moles) on the skin though.

And their effectiveness is, questionable (Germany reports 54% false positives, TSA reports handguns being concealed successfully in underwear, etc.)

Microwave ovens also produce non-ionizing radiation so I imagine that they would be safe to place one's full body inside as well.

non-ionizing means mostly harmless, but there is no guarantee. Proteins come in lots of shapes and sizes, and non-ionizing radiation can still resonate.

Plant vascular system transports water and nutrients, not the plant's DNA.

Vascular system can transport also genetic matherial sometimes (and is a big problem).

Is there a way to tell who funded this study?

Nestlé signed a deal with them at the beginning of April, according to TheKingOfBelAir's comment above, which would lead me to believe they were at least involved with the study.

Post to craigslist or facebook marketplace and you'll quickly find out how in demand they are. Esp if there are minifigs. Lego collecting is VERY popular right now.

That seems like a pretty cynical perspective to me. Like if Edison had said "it's been shown over and over that electric light bulbs don't work" after the first couple hundred experiments didn't pan out.

In every country, in every world, in every decade of humanity, in every department.

But this time will be different.

Very interesting take.

You can get 120 pills of 100mg of caffeine for $6 including shipping "Jet-Alert 100 MG Each Caffeine Tab 120 Count". There are fancier ones that include L-Theanine (found in green tea) to mellow the caffeine jitters out but those are significantly more expensive.

In what ways is the world worse? "So why does it feel like the world is in decline? I think it is partly the nature of news coverage. Bad news arrives as drama, while good news is incremental—and not usually deemed newsworthy." http://time.com/5086870/bill-gates-guest-editor-time/

Amazon Prime Video recently added a whole section of content that is free but has ads. Seems to work for Crackle also.
