This is a fantastic video, extremely well done in my opinion. I remember fanatically watching "How It's Made", in that show they focused on more run of the mill assembly lines for generic plastic things and usually there was

I dislike this comment because it's such a 'well DUH' thing. Obviously OP isn't suggesting people break the law or quarantine, he's suggesting they go for a run if they have access. Treadmills are not outlawed anywh

Probably some survivorship bias, but ultimately how you dress and handle yourself is essential, and this is especially true for people who you are meeting for the first time. When I was in high-school we had a few teachers who's motto

What a neat and timely teaching tool! Literally just an hour ago today I was reading an article in Chemical Review titled "Concepts of Artificial Intelligence for Computer-Assisted Drug Discovery" [0]. There was a lot of pretty st

Just absurd, the damage of having my entire google account being banned is seriously non-trivial and would easily cost thousands of Dollars worth of time and energy to deal with. I remember having the fear of what's happening here when

A station does not have to be entirely depended on earth, there are a lot of raw materials in space. As for some reasons to grow, or manufacture really, things in orbit, landmass is one reason. There is a whole lot of real estate up there

I like the idea of getting to net neutral with carbon capture. I even did some napkin math about a month ago. I tried calculating the energy requirements to break the CO2 bond as to determine the number of solar panels you would need. To ge

I'm always reminded of Zoz's awesome talk "Don't Fuck It Up!"[0]. There's a ton of sketchy shit you can unfortunately (or fortunately depending on who you are) do online but not getting caught is still a non-tr

Hah, today I learned! It's a great feeling when you don't have to reinvent a wheel, thanks. Now I'm just annoyed that more teams I've been on haven't set this up!

Although it's nice that Git is Git and we can all mostly still work, it still seems foolish to rely on a single point of failure like Github. I've been toying around with the idea of creating a tool that would map the Git api to w

Perhaps we are arguing different things. If by developer you are referring specifically to a web-developer, sure they are akin to the a factory worker in that they are, by in large, on the way out. I am arguing the more broad sense of devel

From a hiring perspective, the problem is, and will continue to be, the quality of each worker. Although there are a handful of similarities between how the two professions operate, I think that it is unwise to make the factory worker conno

As another user mentioned, oscillating loops can achieve these phenomenon and they're extremely abundant in biology. The circadian rhythm is an excellent example of this behavior. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/a

Genetics is an extremely fun topic but the learning curve for entry has been non-trivial. It reminds me of the struggles I had when I was first learning to program recursive functions. With that said, it's been far, far more complicate

Systems thinking is, by far, my favorite mode of thinking. It's why I love programming, business, biology, mathematics, aerospace, etc... I'm convinced that being able to think about abstract systems fluidly is a core skill that s

I am the complete opposite of you, give me voice control on every last device. All that I ask is that my data doesn't get fed into your network, give me an option to opt out of that and I would be happy.

Thank you for the info, it's very interesting! The space has been filled with dinosaurs and great to hear about innovations really starting to ramp. I wish you the best and I'll definitely be keeping a close eye on your progress.

I've been working with my families restaurant to do some efficiency improvements and this does not surprise me in the least. Their business is a sit-down/takeout place and in practice it is fairly similar to a fast-food chain. By

I'll reply to myself because of the general sentiment of the comments seem to be about the safe space aspect. I read this article in a completely different way, I read it as a way to set a tone for the rest of the events within a new g

This was a great piece and I would encourage others to read it... but yeah, as another user said, brutally vivid. It's stories like these that really cemented my desire to pursue healthcare. I will never forget the first code I witness
