I find this scoop designed by IDEO for Zyliss absolutely the best scoop ever invented. It has a high thermal mass and just works a treat. https://slate.com/human-interest/2013/11/human-centered-prod...

Yeah, empty about page is a red flag. And then this: “It’s a relief that Americans oppose Congress’s drug pricing proposals once voters learn the true consequences of these misguided reforms,” said Sally C. Pipes, the brief’s co-author and

Very impressive. Is there documentation for the parameters (they weren’t always intuitive to me)? How did you implement it?

Great explainer of the significance of this study by Goncalo Abecasis. Basically human gene knock-outs, courtesy of mother nature. This study yields tons of gene function leads. Just awesome. Edit: quote The data is so rich that we had no

Almost there! How about growing the meat essence, say hemoglobin with yeast, and providing the fibrous structure from plants? That's exactly what Impossible Foods has done. Edit: That company is also working on milk. [0] [0] https:&#x

I'll try to answer as best I can. I have done cell culture in a research lab, specifically mammalian cells (human and mice), which is what's needed for meat. Typically, the cells get fed with nutrients, but also something called F

Thank you, but I don’t think this was it. The one I remember was more technical. However, I did discover Gilfoyle at 21:40 ;).

A couple of years ago I saw a video where Linus Thorvalds explains his creation, git, especially how everything is based on the SHA1 hash. It was very clear and understandable (at least to me), but I have not been able to find it again. Doe

Looks great, will definitely give this a try since it does sequence manipulations that I otherwise have to write myself. Will this be available via conda? And how would seq integreate with Snakemake, since that is also based on Python?

Really like the Affinity products, but Designer still does not support hatch fills. This is a real deficit, as it’s required for technical drawings, e.g. for patent images. Does this new version offer this feature?
