It wasn't sensible, given the short life of DNA. One of those sci-fi ideas that caught media and technophile attention, but wasn't ever going to go anywhere.
Project Silica appears to be attempting very high density, very long life storage, though.
He can't ask probing questions or he'd inadvertently expose the scam. These people are hucksters, plain and simple. Lex is getting that sweet ad revenue from rubes that think he's asking deep or meaningful questions, and the fact people haven't caught on to his scam blows my mind.
Hardware systems architect, formerly network and systems engineering, 30 years of admin experience, and three software development jobs. My home has minimal tech in it- a file server, four wifi APs, a router, and an H/A DNS pair. It's all IPv6 internally, though. I refuse to let tech ruin my life any more than it needs to at this point. 😆
Shouldn't have taken this much. There's been NTSB recommendations since 2016 that have gone unadopted, and so many early red flags that they could have led a marching band. Like always, as long as the money and glad-handing keeps flowing, regulators and politicians look the other way.
I think you'll be very happy with the new addition. I've had the Forté AP for a few years now and it has been super reliable, very consistent, and has needed only the occasional cleaning.
So you know if you can get a single dose hopper for the Sette? That's one accessory I got for the Forté and I seriously love. I use the lid as a cup for measuring beans, it pours into the hopper without dropping a single bean, and it's large enough to hold beans even for a larger chemex setup.
ToiletPaper USA has a well earned reputation, and fox thought they could get some of the crazies on their side for a while. Nope. Crazies used Fox for all they were worth and left them with the bill. 😆
Imagine getting outdone by these dweebs and not hiding your shame in a hole forever.
Going to run a turbofan in a vacuum chamber for propulsion and use air bearings to float on the surface. Like any of it ever made sense from day one. Fever dreams of an idiot.
Applying it directly to plants or mixed into potting soil has very mixed support. It's decomposing cellulose, like any other plant, so it's unlikely to be that bad in any application. Mostly it seems like well meaning coffee enthusiasts recommend it, while mixing grounds into compost appears to be widely recommended even by non-enthusiasts.
The thing I avoid like the plague is getting grounds down the drain. Over time they'll clog drains, collect in pipes slowing flow, etc. and generally be a pain. So I'm careful to get as much out before rinsing as possible without going crazy. I also do not use it in soaps, because soap film plus coffee grounds in your drain is a perfect recipe for those clogged pipes.
I've been meaning to try using used grounds in a cooking rub- leaving them to dry and then mixing them in a spice rub or using them as the rub itself. I'd be interested to see if anybody's tried used versus fresh grounds, and whether there's a noticeable difference.
How short a memory BI pretends to have. He tweeted about this moronic idea years ago and said he wanted to call it The Institute of Technology and Science because the initialism is TITS. He's a clown, and pretending that isn't still his main motivation lends him credibility.
ISO standards need to be purchased to be viewed, RFCs are freely available requests for comment. The RFC 3339 format is effectively the same is the ISO format, except RFC 3339 allows for a space between the date and time components whereas the ISO format uses a "T" character to separate date and time components.
If you want to get real weird, RFCs are not standards but rather a request for other participants to comment on the proposal. RFCs tend to be pointed towards as de facto standards though, even before they become a BCP or STD.
Just putting this fact out there- A US presidential candidate was on a twitter space with a self-admitted rapist. These pieces of shit can all hang out all they want, and be total dipshits together. But they should carry that stigma forever.
This comment is NOT AT ALL intended to excuse anything that Axl has said, sung, or thought. But in the late 80s and early 90s it wasn't just the cultural norm to saw insanely offensive things about gay people, but they were actively demonized in huge swaths of daily life. I can not imagine how it felt being gay, bi, or otherwise queer but I have to imagine it was petrifying. If something happened to you, the cops were unlikely to investigate. Songs, TV, even news papers made fun of and offensive comments about gay people.
The cultural shift that's happened over the past 40 years is pretty incredible. Not saying we don't have further to go, not saying things are good now, just noting where we've come from just in my own lifetime. Axl might still be a POS, and he's absolutely out of his mind. But shit like that was so pervasive.
