Presumably there's no way to get someone at Google to query their database and find all the shortened links that go to godbolt.org?

well, I see a flash of a normal page and then it goes to 404 I'm using Chrome, with only uBlock Origin Lite but disabling it ~shows no change~ appears to allow it to work. Looking at the requests with uBOL disabled, app.68194690.js and

seems since it's a float it's only 32-bits, and the representation of both 3.14159274101257324219 and 3.14159265358979323846 is the same in IEEE-754: 0x40490fdb though I agree that it is odd to see, and not sure I see a reason why

While it is published on their site, it appears to really just be a summary of the book by Carreyrou? And I have yet to see anyone actually publish any of the dilution ratios and compare that to any existing process, so it seems like an eas

Until seeing your comment I had never considered that someone might actually want any of that stuff, so I had never considered selling or otherwise parting with it since it is fun to keep all that stuff around. I'll certainly let you k

One thing that seems to be forgotten or lost in all of these armchair analyses is that while it is true that something like 3mL of blood is collected for a conventional lab test, the machine itself when it runs the test only takes a few mic

As someone who used to work there and has one of those water bottles and likely knows the person selling that one on ebay (based on the username) I find this hilarious...

From my experience buying/getting quotes for Hamilton/Tecan machines, they're more likely in the $150-250k range. At least for the ones much wider and capable than that OpenTrons appears to be.

The interest level in achieving the best result (and the required associated time, patience, planning, skill, and potentially cost) is likely the more limiting factor. I"m saying this as someone that works with vision systems for indus

As someone who works with modern industrial robots, like you'd find in a car factory, the sensors they're using for the arm positioning are unbelievably precise. I can have the robot stopped, with the brakes on, and push on the en

They published a video of the manufacturing that showed those CNC machines, injection molding, and robotic assembly. It's a lot faster to iterate if you have in-house machining and molding; you can get parts made or modified in <day

I know people that worked there and having Theranos on their resume caused them to not get an interview at at least one company.

OK, so these are more business reasons for bigger samples than technical reasons. 1. Ok, so that can still be done with small samples, it's just a matter of collecting enough. The link I gave showed 15 tests in 30ul of sample. So, 60ul

Ok, so you're giving a business reason to not collect smaller samples. Which is fine and totally valid. Theranos was under the impression that there was an untapped opportunity for smaller samples. But, the wording of the parent commen

That's a good question. Looking at this: http://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/10665/65957/1/WHO_DIL_LAB... for EDTA (a very common anticoagulant "preservative") it is 1.2 to 2.0 mg&#x2F

Existing analysers already use very small samples. See Siemens Advia 1800 specs under "Microvolume Technology" https://www.healthcare.siemens.com/clinical-chemistry/system... It only uses 30ul of sample to ru

It was actually a Wall Street Journal building before it was torn down to build the building Theranos moved into. Theranos was previously in 1601 California Ave (the old Facebook building), which was previously HP/Agilent.

They didn't actually build it. Stanford owned the land and building (and built most of it) while Theranos paid for internal improvements. Stanford also recently sold the property (maybe a year or so ago) and 1701 is available for lease
