How are you gonna check the organs? You can't see HIV on the organs by eye. Checking means re-testing, so might as well get rid of outsourcing.

In this particular case you're saying you need to test the organs once at the outsource place and then again at the hospital? Why not just get rid of outsourcing then?

A blast from the past! I was in grad school in 2014 when I learned about racetrack memory applications using magnetic skyrmions, they were pretty hot because they were considered topologically-protected spin textures and around that time th

My question, and I know no one knows the answer, is are we afraid of a ghost? The ghost being a person who was all in on Biden, that now goes: "fuck that, I'm not voting for Harris" Are there large numbers of people like this

I don't believe the LIGO experiment is utilizing entangled photons. This experiment is using a very different type of interferometer because they're trying to be sensitive to rotations, whereas LIGO's interferometer is for me

This is not scalable at all. It's too fragile, the area purified is tiny and rough. A classic academic solution that can only happen in the lab.

Technical challenges I'd like to see more discussion on from IMEC: - Superconductors are lossy with AC signals, is this loss not a big problem? - Cooling things is very expensive, is this approach not simply transferring the costs to t

Ozempic costs $1000/month (in the US) but $5/month to manufacture [0]. I think if this drug and others are to have a significant anti-consumption effect on other companies it needs to be vastly more accessible, which first require

I think there's another level to this, when you put a superconductor in contact with a metal there's a proximity effect that lowers the Tc of the superconductor. If you're using a superconductor that has a 4K Tc then you cann

Science communication must be at an all-time low. I initially thought the paper was about a sea-borne pathogen being responsible for a decline in disruptiveness in science, which is a crazy statement. Then I thought that it was a paper clai

What I took from it is that if you're a startup that got its funding during a recession (meaning there's lots of laid-off people floating around), you get to collect very talented, skilled R&D people. Hence if that's the

The mechanical properties of steel are the reason why it's harder to make effective crumple zones. So yes, the material does matter a lot.

The object that is rotating is a magnet. It's not what we're seeing with the flake which appears to be flux pinned. If this is fake, it's a very well-done fake. I'm feeling 60% sure that LK-99 is RT superconductor at thi
