The unspoken story here is that Science Exchange is more than just a resource for scientists. It also lowers the entry barrier for scientific start-ups. I suspect that Kishan doesn't have access to a sequencer himself, he just proxies the s

Petridish appears to have no active projects and their blog hasn't been updated since August 2012. I'm assuming they are dead.

Here's the email from Tumblr: For the last 2.5 years, we've used a popular service called Zendesk to store, organize, and answer emails to Tumblr Support. We've learned that a security breach at Zendesk has affected Tumblr and two other com

I find it unusual that Vijay Pande is co-instructing this course. Of course I'm intrigued because computational structural biology is my area of research, but is Dr. Pande really qualified to teach about the topics in the syllabus?

Title is a little misleading, as far as I can tell there are no aspect of this site that verify the users are scientists at all. If only there was a dating site that did, that let me filter my potential mates by how prestigious an instituti

I'm very optimistic about iPython as the solution for "executable documents", much so over Javascript by itself (despite all of Bret Victor's amazing efforts). There is a development branch of iPython by Brian Granger that emits JSON when y

Agreed. People have drawn the connection between web defacement and graffiti before, but I've always thought the web defacers should collaborate with underground artists and put some original graffiti art on sites.

Seconding that. I do computational research, so while I can't merge my code repositories with Evernote very cleanly, I can drag in just about everything throughout my day into Evernote to make a record. Also, the audio recordings are extrem

A fun project might be to use a dominant color-finding algorithm on each frame of a movie in order to create a color time series (then do it on a corpus of movies). Then you could attempt to create a "Shazam for movies" that could be used t

I think every scientific lab has a story of someone in the group being scooped for whatever reason. From my experience it's most often from presenting unpublished work at a conference or presenting data where next logical step for publicati

I thought this might be a multiplayer game of a single instance of Snake where the consensus move is executed in realtime from many players. Of course your version makes sense, but I think the latter would also be cool :)
