Might be cheaper to use solar power to reduce CO2 to form ethylene and then go from there.

California is pursuing similiar bans on single use plastics, and some are already banned in certain metro areas. Unfortunately, it seems like various restaurants and stores have simply started to distribute "non-single use" versio

Wow, I just looked him up as I was unaware of the sentence and he received two life sentences with no parole in Federal prison for a first offender who made an online market place (for illicit goods).

You can also supplement with iron slag cement and silica fume from iron and silicon production, respectively. Those are probably not going away.

Looks like a notebook. If its a reasonably thick/sturdy notebook and you don't push down extremely hard then it doesn't press the keys.

If the air wasn't toxic I usually try to go for a couple walks with the dog around my place in the Oakland hills. Its pretty nice area to wander around. Some steep stairs provide some opportunity for a bit more strenuous exercise which

Where should I go for good basque food? I went to the hotel beside the train station in Winnemucca when I was driving through and it was interesting but didn't feel particularly authentic. Maybe that is authentic Basque-American food..

I like the sagebrush and the wide open spaces. Lived in Eastern WA for a few years. Haven't really been out to Carson valley area much just seems appealing. Also, not sure I want to deal with shoveling tons of snow at Tahoe after 20+

I couldn't really talk to random people at a coworking space unless they signed NDAs, which would be hard to enforce. Lots of IP and other secrets. Do people really discuss their work with strangers at coworking spaces? I've never

I didn't read their post as an argument against WFH, just that they happened to like their routine. I happened to bike to work, about 10mi per day. I rarely get on my bike now, sure I could, but I liked the routine and it really helped

Exactly, I have a 1 bdrm apartment (in law) that I share with my wife. We alternate working at a desk in the living area, at the dining table or a folding table set up in the bedroom. I used to commute 20min by bike in the SF East Bay. I ve

Heating buildings still takes more energy than air conditioning (usually much larger temperature differentials), people in the past used an enormous amount of energy on heating. They just consumed and generated the energy locally in the for

Really interesting, don't know much about CDTE cell production, Just curious, do you have a small start up working on this or is it mostly theoretical at this point (or are you doing this as part of your day job at a larger company)? I

I think they do care if you know intro physics, well I guess it depends on what you are doing but if you are going into a related field in graduate school or industry they probably do want you to know this. Unfortunately, they don't ha

Was Hanford there for power or for cooling water (and general remoteness so people didn't die in an accident)? Can't remember but I worked at PNNL for a few years. Still lots of aluminum smelting with hydropower in Canada.

In some fields you can probably just put up preprints if they are important enough and get noticed, otherwise I assume the OP meant they are publishing in for profit not open access journals that cost less for the author (via charging every

This was my experience in most of my primary and secondary education (K-12) in Canada. If you were good at something right away, math, science, 2nd language, art, even gym class, you basically got some instruction and were able to learn a b

That is a really important point, but I think that it still doesn't counter the argument about the career downsides of being remote when you don't work for a 100% remote organization. My company is pretty flexible but as a scienti

You can get IPA from chemical suppliers. I bought from these guys https://www.stellarchemicalcorp.com/product-page/isopropyl-a... They shipped to my place in the East bay. Price has unsurprisingly gone up a bit since I

There didn't seem to be any details at all. Is there some sort of functionalized surface that specifically binds the virus, if so what molecule/chemistry, how? edit: this is all I found about the company: https://www.sb

by s0rce 6y ago
Some of the assays do appear to functionalize the surface to directly bind and detect viral particles. I have some familiarity with SPR but haven't used it and not to detect viruses (otherwise experienced with surface science).

Same experience here (SF Bay), some items with moderate delays are on time (3-7 days), items with very long lead times (15-30 days) end up coming much faster. Still happy to not have to go to the store.

If the tip is visible before the services rendered that should be separate as its basically bidding on the services not a tip. A separate tip should be editable and hidden until after services are rendered.

Then society should supplement their budget through social safety nets. I don't think its acceptable to risk the health of the grocery store employees because some people can't afford delivery (they don't even need delivery,

I think if you specify your dates and length of stay you can search by the total cost but I agree its certainly frustrating and for short trips makes the service annoying and nearly useless/cost prohibitive. Overall, I think its better

Its frustrating. I'm a Canadian born and raised engineer/scientist working at a US-based medical device startup and I'm constantly converting between thou and microns and mm. Often stuff will be "in spec" for both,
