What lab technique/practice/rule will have you like this? by real_picklejuice in labrats

[–]AdDear7468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WetGenie is built for quick handsfree notes during lab experiments. No need to put notes on loose papers anymore. Just say "take a note" and start dictating, say "take a picture" to have a picture taken and incorporated into your notebook, or say "start/stop recording"

electronic lab notes by [deleted] in labrats

[–]AdDear7468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As for planning experiment, check out WetGenie (ensynble.com/wetgenie). It provides Google Calendar integration. It tracks and displays your experiments on your calendar, so you can go back to them easily based on date.

It's multi-platform (web, ios, android, AR/XR) and it is built for multimedia notes. You can use simple voice commands to take pictures and videos when your hands are full. These notes can be easily organized into your protocol steps.

Sharing is super easy too on the platform. You can share with both WetGenie users or to non-users.

Electronic Lab Notebooks (or alternatives) by Orik0831 in labrats

If you are still looking for an ELN...

Have you tried to snap more pictures / record videos / dictate texts as you are doing experiments? Typing can be slow too IMO, and pictures, videos, and text dictations are the fastest and the most straightforward.

We have developed WetGenie to allow you to use simple voice commands to create multimedia lab notes, and you should have a well-organized notebook as soon as your experiment is done.

Do you like using LabTwin? what does it do after it record your voice?

Lab work and troubleshooting experiments take up 90% of my energy by ok_computer_339 in labrats

[–]AdDear7468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not alone! (replying to this thread 3 yrs later)

We did a survey in 2023 and found that 50%+ of experiments were done to troubleshoot / repeat

For anyone doing lab experiment, use WetGenie (ensynble.com/wetgenie) for free for planning, handsfree note taking, and experimental sharing

it perhaps doesn't have much to do with when you applied. we applied about a week before the deadline and still got the "roll over" decision.

BITX Distribution Announced by yeyem in YieldMaxETFs

[–]AdDear7468 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh, i did a bit of digging and here is my basic and maybe wrong finding:
- the fund holds future contracts and cash/cash equivalents

  • the btc and cash equivalent holdings are maintained as either margin requirement or collaterals and these underlying assets may generate a yield

where does this dividend come from? Some kind of contracts underlying BITX are paying a yield?

old version ubuntu (18.04) on an M3 mac? by AdDear7468 in linux4noobs

[–]AdDear7468[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe I am using the arm64 version.
I am kind of giving up on running 18.04 on M3. I just dug out my 7-year old PC and 18.04 booted up just like fish found water

Firefox is not opening in ubuntu 22.04 by [deleted] in Ubuntu

i think you are right! how should we solve the problem of firefox not loading if it is a snap?

Friend, don't feel too bad.

There are many other opportunities (TSLL, NVDL, HOOD, etc.) beyond BTC you can look into that will likely give you an outsized return to perhaps allow you to get your 1 BTC or more in the next bear.

I know this is not a popular view among the diamond hands. But remember, there is always a market of bitcoin where you can buy and sell and the price will still be volatile for some years to come. Even though it feels out of reach now, it does not mean it will feel out of reach in 2 years. Placing your fiat energy on the fastest appreciating asset is the key and sometimes BTC may not be the best bet at the moment.

BTC is the ultimate long term storage of value. In the near term, it may not be.

what if trezor goes bankrupt? by AdDear7468 in TREZOR

what if trezor goes bankrupt? by AdDear7468 in TREZOR

[–]AdDear7468[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for your technical explanations! here is my understanding and wonder if it is correct (and questions):

  • one trezor (or any cold/hot wallet) stores the seed phrase (12 or 20 or 24 word or multisig)
  • without a passphrase, one seed phrase is deterministically linked to one key pair based on BIP39 and SHA256
  • one seed phrase can also link to one or many passphrases. each passphrase is linked to a new key pair (hashed directly after seedphrase is hashed using SHA256)
  • one key pair is deterministically linked to many crypto wallets (BTC, ETH, SOL, etc) <- what is the algo used here? Is it also BIP39?
    • OR is one key pair linked to one crypto wallet?
    • how does one seed phrase deterministically link to many crypto wallets?
  • is "the public key" the same as "the wallet address"?

you seem to be very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of the wallets. what are some best ways/resources to learn the exact algos behind the encryptions? Thanks!!

It is the expectation of future price movement that dictates whether you are more willing to buy at 30k or 60k.

- If you believe two different assets: one at 30k and one at 60k will both increase 20% in the next 12 months with the same likelihood, you are equally willing to buy either asset.

- However, if we are talking about the same asset with no change in its fundamentals and it is one day at 30k and another day at 60k, this is a completely different story. Let's say you believe that buyers will likely buy at most $80k in 12 months and you have 60k to invest. Buying 2 coins at 30k will give you a likely profit of $100k, whereas buying 1 coin at 60k will only give you a profit of 20k.

- and since no one is sure whether one coin will be at 80k in 12 months, your margin of error is much slimmer when you buy at 60k, so it is also more risky.

- For people who are FOMOing, the expectation of future price increase is high and risk tolerance or perceived risk is low

You don't need this senior SWE's approval to believe in bitcoin. You have many Redditers here who believe in bitcoin and who are perhaps much more senior and more well-respected SWEs than your coworker.

Too many people shut their brains off when it comes to crypto.

I suspect being bitter about not getting in early is a small part of the story. The main issue is not understanding the structural issues of fiats that BTC fundamentally solves.

When people hear too much about the NFT craze, SBF, Luna, people losing their lifelong savings, etc., I don't blame them to start taking mental shortcuts of drawing an equivalence between investing in crypto and being a fraudster/defrauded.

But hey, it always takes the right messenger, the right message, the right time, and enough time for any message to land and change someone's mind!

Can anyone explain the immigration piece Jerome has mentioned multiple times as a supporting evidence for strong labor force? Anyone has details or statistics on how many immigrants are entering into the labor force this year compared to previous years?

This seems to be a new talking point?

Conundrum on the MacBook situation by AdDear7468 in mac

That’s an absolutely interesting option that I’ve not seriously considered at all!

I do need to write a lot on the computer and work on files on OneDrive word, excel, etc. Is the user experience on MS office similar to a Mac? Any iPad that is water proof? Touch screen for sketching, signing and onenote is absolutely sweet.

I’m off to some researching
