On the upside, this means you can run the LED boards without the rest of the CM-5. Have one panel that still works.

"A body at rest remains at rest until it looks down and realizes it has stepped off of a cliff."

Yes and no. When trying to show quantitative data in terms of areas or angles, then you are spot-on: same issues. But these plots, or chord diagrams more generally, are often used …

"significantly lower level affair, on par of the other Star-something languages for the CM" I'm not sure what this means. C* and CM Fortran weren't particularly low-level, unless C…

One of the things I appreciate about HN is that discussions often acknowledges the pioneers. Way back in the early 1990s Eric Begleiter started Dimensional Foods to commercialize e…

Brain is among the top sites where NSCLC tumors tend to metastasize https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4251107

It's one of the 27 participating countries listed at the top of the page.

Thanks for this. On the updated video[0] there is an absolutely fascinating comment from a former McDonnell Douglas employee who worked with Maurice Ward and had first hand experie…

The complaints outline substantial profits that the scientists are alleged to have made as expert witnesses. All four are alleged to have made hundreds of dollars and hour, hundred…

Recent studies suggest it's not just staying indoors or viruses hanging around longer in cold/dry air. Exposure to cold temperatures may suppress specific immune mechanisms in resp…

Yes, Sanofi licensed from Kymab. There are a few groups targeting ICOS/ICOSL to modulate immune response to tumor (either alone or in combo with PD-1, CTLA-4, etc approaches previo…

The article doesn't give details, but one of the quoted authors has participated in trials testing anti-ICOS antibody alone or in combination with atezolizumab, with results presen…

> I heard (but never saw) that for internal development at Connection Machines each developer had a single 512-processor board to work on. From at least ~1989 on there were a bunch…

That Y chromosome was added by applying same analysis workflow to a different biological source (CORIELL:NA24385, a NIST standard material used in the Genome in a Bottle project). …

Basic evolutionary theory may argue that most of it is "junk" in the sense of being non-functional (even though some may be species-specific or under selection too weak or recent t…

Has no male DNA (no Y chromosome), and is completely homozygous which simplified the assembly. https://web.expasy.org/cellosaurus/CVCL_VU12

The Atlantic article is based on a preprint of one of the papers now formally published in Science. They both describe the same T2T-CHM13 assembly.
