Flowers, there are whole “food production” technologies that can make edible materials for humans and related species. Taking wood and stems to make alcohol for fuel, there are industrial and sustainable industries to make sugars, starches – pretty much whatever you want. Perhaps what you are struggling with is “Is photosynthesis necessary?” or “Do

Now Queegle Multitask had a girl-friend Freena, and Freena reminded him constantly of his promise to take her to the Moon for a week in orbit there. The rates were cheap now, because after the initial glamour of “orbit the moon”, everyone realized that the synth was better, cheaper and much more convenient. Synthetic experiences

Patrick Piantadosi @ptpiantadosi any calcium imaging folks have a good pipeline for correcting (or otherwise dealing with) rather severe motion in 1p miniscope recordings? https://pic.x.com/dr3cmdmywy Replying to @ptpiantadosi Many groups use registration, stacking, “lucky images” and “flow”. It is growing fast, and nearly impossible to follow completely. I label it as a “solved problem where

I have studied the gravitational energy density at the earth’s surface since about 1978. Just after Joe Weber told me to read all of Robert Forwards papers. g^2/(8*pi*G) is roughly equivalent to the energy density of a magnetic field of 379 Tesla. I know that the gravitational potential field is turbulent at small scale and
