настоящая любовь приходит сама.
Вселенная подведет к родственной душе, когда время придет.
не тратьте время на эти приложения знакомств.
там куча опасностей и прикинуться кем-угодно очень просто.

some microorganisms' strategies can also inspire innovations (bio-inspired innovations).
another reason to conserve them

How Spacecoin Could Help Conserve Biodiversity and Nature’s Wisdom | HackerNoon Spacecoin might help to conserve biodiversity and Nature's wisdom due to its decentralized nature. Also, it could benefit from bio-inspired solutions.

Nature and space industry (like Spacecoin project) could benefit each other.
#space industry could help conserve biodiversity/Nature's wisdom, and bio-inspired innovations could help it with its challenges.

great explanation and visualization.

JS, programming...lots of abstract concepts which are often difficult to understand and imagine.
would be great to find some additional elegant metaphors/analogies to explain this, as human reasoning happens mostly with the help of images.

what's more, biodiversity loss leads to Nature's wisdom loss (biomimicry (nature-inspired innovations)).
by loosing living beings, we also lose pieces of Nature's wisdom that could be integrated into human systems design.

another example would be AI usage for nature-inspired innovations (biomimicry) development.
AI helps to match nature strategies and human problems.

Illustration of a new Irish Tree Alphabet. Twenty-six trees represent each letter of the English alphabet. At the bottom of the image are lines representing the Ogham alphabet, horizontal and vertical lines, looking like simple trees.

The Irish Tree Alphabet draws trees from existing native as well as non-natives that are now calling Ireland home due to the changing climate. 

The trees are drawn in ink with colored water pencil filling in the leaves and fruit. 

The work is rooted in the medieval Ogham alphabet which was used to write the early Irish language. The characters or letters were called feda "trees", or nin "forking branches" due to their shape.

Each letter of the Latin alphabet is given a corresponding tree: A = Ailm (Scots Pine), B = Beith (Birch), B = Coll (Hazel), etc. 

The tree drawings were turned into a font called Irish Trees.  

Irish Tree Alphabet by Katie Holten was made for Visual Carlow in 2020. The font is available to download, so everyone can write with Irish Trees.

Nature and the environment permeate the language viscerally. Irish predates English by a millennium. Its early writing system, Ogham, written vertically as a series of lines and strokes, has an alphabet based on trees.​ The Irish language is a joy.

🥦 Plant-based diets and inflammation

A new systematic review found that plant-based diets lower key inflammation markers (CRP, IL-6, TNF-α) in adults, suggesting reduced risk of chronic disease.

Discovery and artificial intelligence-guided mechanistic elucidation of a narrow-spectrum antibiotic - Nature Microbiology Enterololin is a narrow-spectrum antibiotic that selectively kills Enterobacteriaceae in vitro and in a mouse model of adherent-invasive Escherichia coli gut infection. AI-guided mechanism-of-action studies identified LolCDE as its molecular target.

🧫 AI discovers new narrow-spectrum antibiotic

Researchers used deep learning to identify enterololin, a compound that targets harmful Enterobacteriaceae while sparing healthy gut microbes. A step toward safer antibiotics.
