That starting coil can get stalled too, esp if head pressure is still very high. I did HVAC 30 years ago and back then you could reliably thermal-trip residential and commercial systems by simply turning them off then back on within 10-15

Might help to add what you're trying to get from the expansion. Also where existing staff is located, as coordinating schedules goes from mildly annoying on the east coast to materially difficult on the west coast.

I suppose. Obviously if these findings hold for humans we could all be impacted. I just think it's important to differentiate what is caused by the nanoparticle delivery mechanism and what is caused by the mRNA. For example it's

Reminds me of this RadioLab episode about a company that loiters over areas with a high resolution imaging platform that allows them to 'rewind' from the scene of a crime to see where the suspects came from: https://rad

Open it up until you’re just barely ‘purring’ on exhale then gently but quickly start to inhale (think of your breath as the bow on a violin). There will be a slight timbre change but cats have that too. It sounds more like a dragon purrin

Yep! I’m guessing one of the openly available models would do similarly as well. Obviously more expensive compute-wise, results are pretty good though.

Probably has no relevance for the research in question but viruses are a very effective way to deliver CRISPR-based therapies. It's conceivable to implant the mRNA of a vaccine similar to what was used for COVID-19 into a transmissible

Their annual revenue is ~$180M. If any appreciable portion of their student body turns on them it's going to start to hurt very quickly. A sober assessment says that very few students would actually leave but there's a tail risk

Not exactly what you're describing, but the F150 Lightning has a feature called 'Pro Power Onboard' that provides up to 9.6kw of power on 240v and 120v outlets in the bed. This is plenty of power to run a welder, air compres

Totally agree. Particularly if it becomes tidally locked and you end up with a ring-shaped habitable zone that's out of the direct heating/radiation of the sun and fed by convective currents coming from the cold side.

It's diameter is ~112k miles, or roughly 2% of the distance to its star. It's hard to imagine the amount of chaos in that atmosphere. I would think all of the churn from the gravitational gradient would end up effectively tidall
