Gencove @Gencove In our latest blog, @joe_pickrell asks what happens when sequencing data becomes “too cheap to meter”? Speculating on the coming sequencing industry changes, Joe shares his four predictions for what things could look like in 2034.

Rafael Polania @RafaPolania New pub! Is it possible to modulate sensory information processing in a non-invasive manner by modulating ongoing oscillatory activity in the prefrontal cortex in humans? Yes, we can! Take a look at our Open Access pub @NatureHumBehav https://nature.com/articles/s41562-024-01820-z Replying to @RafaPolania and @NatureHumBehav You should be able to modulate to test and record.

Kevin, Sean – Thanks for the presentation and discussion I made many comments. Thank you for responding. The need is for hundreds of millions of these. Since there are also array applications, possibly billions.To use with cell phone, you can use the FLIR thermal sensor approach which is USB C plug-in to the phone, or

Physics Explained: Deriving Einstein’s most famous equation: Why does energy = mass x speed of light squared? At 19:56 the ? is the time derivative of the gravitational time dilation which has terms for gravitational potential, velocity potential, and electric and magnetic potential. For satellites (GPS/GNSS) velocity and gravitational potential are used. And it changes

Philipp Schmid @_philschmid Speculative Decoding is a method to speed up the text generation of LLMs, but requires additional parameters or a separate smaller model. @Apple now proposes Speculative Streaming, which integrates speculative decoding into a single LLM to speed up inference without degrading… https://pic.twitter.com/7A3N75wyTV Replying to @_philschmid and @Apple Philipp, Stop saying “a separate

There should be a large region of stability where protons bind by magnetic dipole energy. PP magnetic bonds are stronger then NP, are stronger then NN, usually. But conditions for PP binding from natural sources? Most of the isotopes are NP, and then NN. NP pairs (magnetic dipole pairs) are the core of most isotopes.
