Sounds cool, but what is the waste product when the enzyme breaks down the plastic? Matter isn’t destroyed...only converted.

I can think of at least 50 ways to use them that cost less than 2.8 million, one of which is art.

Desalination + desert greening + solar + farming. Awesome

While we’re at it, have you met Yelp?

‘The researchers expected that regardless of the time of day, men in both groups would see improvements in blood-sugar levels. But “when they exercised in the morning, they actually had slightly higher levels of blood sugar [than baseline], which we didn’t expect at all,” ‘

There’s a circadian effect to blood glucose...it’s part of how you wake up. Kind of surprised the authors of a circadian rhythm study didn’t factor this in.

The novelty is the important part IMHO

Novel behavior could increase plasticity. Whether that’s novel exercise, new dances, or brushing your teeth with the opposite hand.

Best HN comment I’ve read in a long time.

Agreed, would love to find or create the internet’s canteen of unusual shipping lore.

Venture Stories and A16Z are great. Not a huge fan of the sound effects on Masters of Scale

Or maybe hospitals aren’t using a consumer smart thermometer and more people are now hospitalized.

Second part of this video is a helpful explanation of how it attacks.

Any possibility of an East Coast meetup in the near future?

So good. The Wrath of the Khans episodes are some of my favorites.

Why can’t someone rig up a DJI drone with an adhesive base, land it on the mystery drone, leave the camera engaged, and figure out where they go?

Two favorites:

“Billionaires" has nothing to do with those who can’t graduate to higher wage jobs from that starting point.

50% of millennials want to be heard and appreciated.

Possibly placebo, but I felt like bone broth helped during my Achilles tendon recovery.

Oh I see now. The mobile version loaded differently this time. There’s a shopping cart in the upper righthand corner for some reason. The desktop version is the same.

When did PG redesign the site?

I feel like this has the potential to be misused unless it is clear when the device is in camera mode. I haven’t installed this so I’m admittedly unqualified to comment on whether that’s true, but please don’t give people a DIY NSA capability

I would argue the real question is sustainability. The universe is finite.

While I hope we can design alternative systems and sustainable, circular economies, the desire for growth may be a hardwired part of the human condition.

Despite all good intentions, the hedonic treadmill is real.

You may like the work of Kate Raworth at Oxford though.

Half a stream extraction operator :)

New electrodes are much thinner, and some are designed to prevent this.

“Dump sugar dust from collectors into melting tanks and add water to reclaim sugar lost during processing.”

Original article also had a phishing virus attached...

I like how the pop up I got on this story offers to let me “Do More With Alexa” if I subscribe

Does the time it would take to spin up enough compute to carry out a 51% attack decrease its likelihood? I.e more blocks are being written every day, so you need to do additional work to create the alternate chain?

Wow, now WeWork looks even more overvalued than it did when I wrote this list [1] of things it’s “worth more than”.

My favorite: At $47 billion, We would be more valuable than all the cash raised by every IPO in 2018.
