Because it was there. I hope she got down safely.

The 'Move Slow and Upgrade' author spoke to journalist and architect Alison Killing about the challenges of disruptive innovation and the advantages of incremental change.

AI + Quantum are the two biggest DOE pushes currently, as part of the Genesis Mission.

When I finally get a new thing to work after weeks (sometimes months) of failing; to see the clear results and know it will work again. The best feeling and the best sleep after.

Scientists: for a new story, I have one big question—>

What is a “good day” in the lab?

I’m looking for epic examples of the best day ever to general criteria for what constitutes a “good day” compared to a nothing-burger day.

Ping me if you have examples to share!

Re-posts appreciated!

Neat experiment! Original paper: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

I was a little surprised they use a dye laser. The wavelength they are using to detect Li is well within the range for a Ti:sapph.

We do hardware. I've been involved in product launches, tradeshows, ad campaigns all of that. Before I had control, it was frustrating to deal with deciders who wouldn't spend a penny on swag, considering it a "waste". 🤦🏽‍♂️

The 2nd paragraph is pure marketing wisdom. "The stupid thing sells the smart thing." Perfect.

Yay! I hope they enjoyed it.
Grew up near KSC. It was a little strange moving away and realizing people couldn't just go outside and look up to watch a launch, if they even knew one was happening.

Loved perusing them in the store, but my limited funds usually went to Omni or Byte.

Good one!! Reminds me of one I used to do for Chem lectures: big clear water container, a can each of diet and regular coke. Diet floats and regular sinks.

Got a superauto, which saves on both money and disappointment at getting bad espresso shots. Some favorite bean brands are Harbinger in Colorado or Dark Matter in Chicago.

How ‘forest bathing’ keeps lungs healthy Wooded environments release organic compounds that seem to improve respiratory health, but the magnitude and mechanism of the effect remains unclear.

Does ‘forest bathing’ improve health? Or does it just offer people a break from urban sources of harm? This article is part of our Nature Outlook: Lung Health. 🧪 🌍

The question has to be "what is Common Sense?"

Thomas Paine apparently claimed that there were 120,000 copies of it sold in 3 months.

It's not often that I see a science paper and actually say "NO WAY!!" out loud.

If real seems like a good metric to use with Tesla. High smoke:fire ratio.

I am more sanguine about Hyundai scaling robotics than Tesla bc of exactly that partnership. Note Hyundai is not ramping down vehicle production.

Sure, anyone doing this has to solve how to manufacture those DOFs. Tesla's strength will be in batteries, not so much the mechanics.

But even simple robots have far more degrees of freedom than autos. Autos are extremely simple in terms of motion dynamics, and problems like compliance have been solved. Making a functional, useful robot requires system integration over a wide range (mm to meters).

Extraordinary! Love the perspective.

It's been frustrating for 20 years to see "tech news" in the press = social networks, phone apps, and blockchain, while genuinely incredible breakthroughs are relegated to some combination of health and wellness and science pages, with far less coverage.

What is a negaton supposed to be? Is it just a word they're using instead of electron?

Neat, but: "The cave is filled with hydrogen sulfide gas in concentrations too high for most animals to survive" ... as person walks by with no respirator. I'm wondering if it's that humans are more tolerant of H2S, or that shot was on the way out, closer to fresh air.

I think this is the site: experience.arcgis.com/experience/3...

PM2.5 and NO2, better than nothing but not the whole picture.

No, it didn't. Edible means safe to eat, not just ingestible.

Is this with parallel sessions? Unheard of in my field to go over by more than a couple of minutes, and you lose that from your Q&A. Big clocks counting down. Otherwise the whole thing becomes a mess with ppl moving between sessions.

Extraordinary. Of course this shows heat, but it's easy to surmise the vented combustion products.

I really thought as a species we were past miasma theory.

MS are the champs of needless confusion by renaming things.

There's a good infobox in the article that gives an overview of nine techniques for "sniffing". Most have their niches, but as the article points out there is still demand for better.
