Seriously. Progress in microscopy hasn't slowed down at all. There was an Nobel prize given for optical super-resolution imaging recently. Cryoelectron tomography is insane: near Angstrom level resolution of 3D segments of cells. Peopl

I find this notion to be completely ridiculous. There's some things that are common to all life. The genetic code for instance. There are of course different dialects [1], but they're all fairly similar, and all code for the same

Not really. The keto diet includes plants. Just not starchy or sweet ones, e.g. cauliflower, lettuce, broccoli, etc.

I love DOIs. If the bib format isn't too strict, I always include the doi and hyperlink it to dx.doi.org. That way, if I need to check something in a reference quickly, I can just click the link in the bibliography.

I don't think it's a 2nd amendment issue, per se. But it's very similar. If you're afraid of your freedom to stand up against a tyrannical government being taken away, you should be especially afraid of your right to tal

Maybe a little. I've always wanted to try it out too. One of the really cool things about it is that it imparts a sort of sense of magnetic fields. If you have a magnet implanted in your finger, you can feel it vibrating in response to

Shortwave, as in short with respect to "mediumwave" transmissions, like regular old broadcast AM radio, or "longwave" which can be used to communicate with submerged submarines. It's a really old term...

I've always just bit the bullet and compiled Python 3 and installed it to ~/.local when I had to deal with such a system. It generally compiles without needing me to build any other dependencies. Unless I need sqlite, berkeley db,

I view it as a reference mainly. It's usually not very helpful for learning, unless the subject is trivial.

It's not though. No mention of the device, eliquid, device parameters (power or temperature depending on the model), or puff duration. It's a pretty significant omission.

They did not report their methods for the ecig sample acquisition. It's quite possible that they were not using the vaporizer under the normal conditions. There was a previous study where they were running the device at excessive volta

It's an interesting first step to hacking one's own genes, though. It makes me wonder if it would be possible to transfect human skin cells in situ with a plasmid containing a gene for a fluorescent protein. If possible, it would

I would never claim that they are safe without a lot more scientific evidence, but safer is plainly obvious. Vaporizers do not combust the material. Incomplete combustion of plant matter generates tons of carcinogens. The material in ecigs
