They sure aren't. I've paid for my bag to be cling film wrapped because of how easily locks can be unlocked and it is at least easier to see if my bag has been tampered with (not that the cling wrap is going to prevent it fully bu

It's too time consuming and has an undefined likelihood of success. People will naturally flock to alternative methods, such as sci-hub, that are faster and until recently were near guaranteed to have the desired content.

Also, many outlying islands on Scotland's costs aren't that amenable to forestation, as prevalent high winds can prevent growth of large trees (or re-growth if the land was at one time cleared).

No, the vaccine does not 'provide a breeding ground' for the virus. Quite the opposite, the vaccine reduces the potential pool of individuals it can infect. Baseline here is an unvaccinated population, not an idealized scenario wi

Not the author of the parent comment, however my experience has been similar. My take is that it depends heavily on the field. If you're in biosciences, then yes, absolutely (I can't speak to other fields). You won't get very

The journal risks alienating their presumed target audience if they include too many flat earth articles and the like. This journal has a very fine line to walk and I wish them luck.

We are lucky enough to live in an area with a strong amish presence. Their food is amazing, going out to eat it is like eating a wonderful home cooked meal. Amish BBQ, while not as flashy as other styes, is also definitely worth a try. Amis

I did the same with boutique guitar pedals for a time. Having and using each pedal for a month or so before flipping it ended up usually costing just the shipping amount in the end. It was a fun experience and I was able to indulge the hobb

Some medical data, such as genome sequence data, is unique to an individual (where the uniqueness is partly dependent on the length of sequence data generated - short sequences may not be unique). Even worse, whole exome or genome data also

Same here, but we haven't gone as far back as the 50s. Mostly we've been enjoying family movies from the 70s, 80s, and early 90s, back when sets were elaborate and most effects were practical. Many of these older movies have reall

Agreed. Based on my lab experiences, it might have been more accurate for the author to write that often code is not being written by individuals who are the intellectual drivers of the lab. In many labs the 'thinkers' get far mor

None of the techniques you describe are reliant on WGS. I wholeheartedly agree that sequcning has revolutionized medicine, but WGS isn't there yet. NIPT uses low-coverage sequencing to identify aneuploidies for chromosomes 13,18,21 and

While tapering bedtime is sometimes possible (not when they can read the clocks!), you can't taper when they wake up quite as easily. I would expect that this suggestion cannot be easily implemented by many families.
