The electrode goes in, punctures the blood brain barrier, and works for a while.

Even with the ancient electrodes in EC11/EC13, you would get unsafe currents some of the time.

When you put an electrode into the brain, you often end up recording the "sounds" of multiple neurons firing.

"Statements like "warns me that if I remove an electrode and break the connection, the voltage passing through my brain will blind me for a good few seconds.

Modern ECT would be performed on only the right side of your brain, with one electrode on the temple and one slightly offcenter at the top of your head.

That a single electrode can disrupt consciousness doesn't suggest otherwise.

While it is correct that electrode arrays are some form of brain-computer-interface, they are a very crude tool and have nothing in common with the imagery that is being invoked here for the sake of publicity.

Indeed, for this particular circuit, a simple static discharge, as might happen when you're applying the electrodes after walking over carpet, can fry the input amplifier, connecting it to the power rails.

The composition of the crystal can be gradually altered by outgassing, diffusion of atoms of impurities or migrating from the electrodes, or the lattice can be damaged by radiation.

Very unclear; it says "The device" -- speaking of the catalyst/electrode system that does the electrolysis -- "uses novel, relatively high-voltage solar cells to generate the needed electricity.

This wiring pattern is much more difficult to experimentally measure than simply counting neurons because it would involve flashing tiny, contrast-y dots of light in front of a fixated mammal while poking an electrode around in the thalamus.

There are weirder options as well--implanted magnets or electrode arrays to simulate vision, hearing, heat, taste, etc...Dedicated interfaces can perform far better at specific tasks, but glass interfaces offer reconfigurability at low cost.

I think the author intuitively knew that "A slight difference in electrolyte composition results in dramatically different long term electrode reliability" would not get quite as many page views as the completely false "No one has the slightest idea how and why it works.

Molecules of contamination either from the residual atmosphere, outgassed from the crystal, electrodes or packaging materials, or introduced during sealing the housing can be adsorbed on the crystal surface, changing its mass; this effect is exploited in quartz crystal microbalances.
