I thought an individual atom has been imaged before, at least roughly. Anyway, this is fantastic science. I'm excited to see how imaging atoms affects our understanding of quantum mechanics and atomic structure in general.

> Apart from contact tracing, testing the right people helped the state keep a check on the spread.

I see this sentence a little problematic

I'm kind of hoping this puts the nail in the coffin with researchers trying to separate the psychedelic effects from the anti-depressant effects so that they can turn it into some kinda pill people have to take every day.

I wonder what's the correlation between this and people being underpaid. I'm fortunate enough to have my own house after graduation so I don't have to pay rent. But I have friends that don't have this luxury and man, they are struggling. Besides eating and rent they can't afford anything else in a month. No question here what's giving them these feelings

I guess they are playing for a portfolio approach. With investments in a bunch of different companies, in-house drones, and robotics research. Very interested in how they integrate them into Amazon, if at all.

All jokes aside, the Theremin is actually quite a remarkable instrument when played correctly. Also remarkable is his listening device, "The Thing", hung for seven years in plain view in the US Ambassador's Moscow office and Soviet agents eavesdropped on secret conversations. Used the same principles as RFID.

Seems like every major tech company bows in front of the Chinese government. This is really scary

If you:

1) Cite only the positive studies

2) Don't make any claims about effect size (i.e. correlation strength & predictive strength)

You can basically make this point about literally any substance with enough studies on it. Ranging from melatonin to insulin, to idk... probably not mercury? So I guess that's a strike against 1 and 2 being fully generalizable.

This looks like more work and more opportunities for bugs than protothreads.

The most brilliant part:

From the article: “Encourage everyone in the world with access to the internet to report whether they can or cannot smell. Make it easy for them to do so. Find widely admired people with big social-media followings to make short videos on the subject — at the bottom of which there’d be a simple button that allows anyone watching to report their sense of smell. Go viral with the virus. Before long you’d have a pile of data that smart analysts could use to map it, and evaluate its risks. The results might not be perfect, but they were far better than what we have now in any rich country and far better than what they might ever have in countries with fewer resources.”

Please get checked if you feel you're losing your sense of smell.

Damn, what an awesome project! That's a lot of hard work, and now I want to try Zig. One more oh god save me from programming languages.

It would appear that this applies to politicians pretty much all the time.

This is how a global crisis begins. The virus is spread more than we know and it's getting further

Nice idea. Also, I think that an ELI5 command would be really useful, too

So interestingly, depending on what you're looking for, Google is actually not the best search engine to use.

At this point DuckDuckGo is best for keyword searches, Google is good if your searching for concepts and links sorted by popularity and similar subjects.

If you’ve already watched Holy Grail, Life of Brian and Meaning of Life so many times, you know them by heart. You should watch Monty Python’s Flying Circus - Season 4 next. It’s the one they did without John Cleese. Some of the stuff in there is so surreal and out there, that it feels different from the other stuff they did as a group.

It’s a great way to remember this beautiful man.

I like the concept, but I think it needs some work on the design and functionalities. I feel it's a bit too basic for my needs.
