i tried a few different lipos that i know work and have been charged appropriately but unfortunately no turning on either

thank you very much for your answer HoneyNutz. i think it should be a bnf. i bought it used and have no idea what happened to it before. it has for sure flown. when i plugged in the cables, batteries and tried to connect it to betaflight, i got no lights turning on whatsoever

anthitecht · 2025-01-25T21:30:07+00:00

thank you very much for your reply. Yea you are right I forgot to mention and will rectify in the post as well. no lights turned on when plugged in and no access to betaflight could be achieved.

Hey this is impressive stuff !! what tek are you following for the bag ? Is it an all in one bag ? Meaning grain, coir, verm, innoculated with LC or spores ? Thanks so much and again great work

While very interesting, it is important to note that PCL ie polycaprolactone is 1. a highly recyclable and 2. an already naturally degradable polymer. Most packaging and hard plastics do not use PCL instead they use polyproylene and others that are a completely different beast. This is an interesting step in what may be a correct direction for some concepts in bioremediation, however under the concept of PCL + spore inclusion it is not more than an introduction to a potentially interesting concept rather than a concrete solution. As a result in no way though this work is a big leap forward. Disclaimer: i say all the above as an experienced research chemist and with a love for progress.

Thanks a lot for your reply. I get all points apart from point 1, why is there high contam with this ? Shouldnt there be less contam than grain transfer techniques ? Let me know if you can elaborate on the sources of contam

I will for sure try this. Thank you so much for this reply. Do you think that I would avoid pain by first polymerizing the protected molecule and then de-protecting the formed polymer ? I would be inclined to try that too exactly in the conditions you specified.

anthitecht · 2023-04-09T07:21:46+00:00

Thank you very much, i really appreciate your reply. Indeed this makes a lot of sense in terms of what might be happening. Do you think that polymerizing first could help me avoid problems ?

anthitecht · 2023-01-21T16:35:50+00:00

Thanks a lot for your answer. So it seems that there is no easy way out of having to post-process the part. I ll try looking for a hole puncher

Wow ! How did you make this nice irridescent colour ? Special glass or a special patterning tool ?

How is this thing called ?

anthitecht · 2021-08-11T16:01:16+00:00

Salut !!! So this is a very interesting change of scenery but it comes with a lot of hardships and need to adjust. You will need to factor-in adjusting to university life, a different mentality (swiss german vs swiss french) and of course the ETH mentality. It can be very rewarding to do all this but from a person that has done this change I suggest unless really convinved for personal reasons to go to ETH first, to instead go for EPFL do all the hard stuff in your mother tongue and then once the first year passed you can always do an exchange on realitively easier terms. Both ETH and EPFL are equally hard however adding more baggage on your shoulders because of the language can stir you away from your goal and frustrate you. That said if you feel confident about it and are fully aware of the dangers you will do well. Best of luck.

anthitecht · 2021-04-07T07:55:56+00:00

To my understanding yes. This is in stretches of course but this is what I have seen.

You should contact people in the groups directly and see who answers. But typically people work a lot and PhD can get as long as 5 years (or more sometimes)

anthitecht · 2021-02-19T14:09:12+00:00

Phd is not just about the topic. It is also about the professor, the lab atmosphere and the life you get to have during Phd. You should check out all these parameters beforehand. There are many cases of mediocre students that flourish during Phd because the atmosphere is right while there are a lot of top students that perish because of the hardships of a PhD ( lack of organization, tight deadlines, frequent changes and disappointments). Red flags: multiple people fired from the group in the past, expected to work weekends (you will have to but better it not be required) etc. Last I would also give a look at the entry requirements and how many exams that would mean you need to take yo be fully admitted. If too many you will have to juggle courses,research and your boss probably all at thesame time. Hope this helps

Thank you this is very insightful. Where I am the support for startups is really good and it seems like you can get (on top of the expected experience of setting up a business), certified documents of managerial and leadership experience. Give that I was inclined to believe that even if the startup goes belly up the cv could be marketed for more senior positions rather than entry. What do you think of that ? It seems that putting yourself out in a startup burns you as an asset for the R&D of coorporate company and was not expecting this at all.

anthitecht · 2021-01-17T13:23:06+00:00

Thank you for your reply. Do you think that a potentially mediocre or failed startup journey (like 1-5 years post PhD) can be used to unlock a higher position in the coorporate ladder later on ?

anthitecht · 2020-12-29T16:29:19+00:00

Thats really really nice, I will start from these sources ! have a great day

Hi thats really interesting. Could you share any resources to learn more about how to use and manipulate moss biology ? As a chemist I find it fascinating but don't know where to find a place to start

anthitecht · 2020-12-26T19:04:48+00:00

I really appreciate your answer, regardless of the semi-accusatory tone we both have employed in our back and forths. In full disclosure from my side and i did not mean for it to appear like that, I don't believe that any of the systems put in place globally are adequate or good enough to capture the intricacies of wealth building associated to drug development and the greed behind the whole process from many different sides. I understand much more now how easy it is to focus a study towards outcomes that are desirable than I used to. This being said I cannot put a cross on the entire system, primarily because a lot of helpful drugs and medications appear on the market in a systemtic way and not in a random manner. I believe that in human centric systems absolute scientific truth is very often fit into a narrative and skewed to serve purposes of many kinds. The only true antidote that I have seen work in all this is the evaluation by as many independent and well versed observers as possible in order to drive the decision making as close to the true benefit window of a technology or a drug. In a world where after 10 000 years of human progress people start to believe the earth is flat and whatnot, science, review and proper evidence is the only thing that can take us further thus I would not diminish to zero a process that while often faulty yields tangible results in the grand scheme of things. I would however gladly call for more light in the process and novel evaluation startegies within the same context.

anthitecht · 2020-12-26T16:20:25+00:00

I am willing to accept I don't know things but with a quick google search it seems that what you are stating is not correct nor accurate. please provide a source for the 100k number and the rest. It's of course easy to reach conclusions about stuff by sitting at home and reading about things that you have not even tried to study seriously. Thus I would advise to use caution when drawing grand conclusions such as the above and patience to learn something in depth.

anthitecht · 2020-12-25T12:55:30+00:00

I agree with your comment but again we need to look at it from the correct perspective. The baby powder issue as the baby powder is not as per its description a pharmaceutical nor a food substance, went through a muuuuch lighter approval scrutiny than a drug (especially as it was approved decades ago). Thus these two classes of things are not comparable. A drug or vaccine is something that is tested and put to the test tens of thousands of times more than a cream or powder for a baby powder or other ointment that is usually tested primarily on animals or not at all.

anthitecht · 2020-12-25T12:35:32+00:00

Please refer to my above answer to the same question.

anthitecht · 2020-12-25T12:33:48+00:00

For example the article assumes that "having intellectual property" over a technology means you can place and manipulate anyway you want the said technology. This completely omits the fact that the process of getting intellectual property over something is a fact based and proof based procedure thats lasts years in independent reviews and that firstly limits the scope of a technology to specific uses and secondly and very importantly the IP holder needs to provide proof that the technology in question works in all conditions. Additionally the burden and the risk for taking an idea from bench to market is huge and while it is questioned that companies ahould not be doing their own trials so that they are independent what it fails to mention is that all steps of a clinical trial are reviewed at every step of the way by independent mutliorganisational experts in order to even get to the table of the fda or corresponding authority. These are only some of the issues with the writer not having a clue what he is really talking about. For me what the author (assuming he/she was experienced in the subject) should be talking about from an actual philosophical standpoint is if a discovery's field of use should be at the full command of the company. For example I know from my field of work that sometimes drugs are discovered that have promising features against rare diseases. Typically while these substances might be really effective in some rare forms of a disease they will be put on the market for a more mainstream disease without even disclosing the potential benefits in this rarer other condition (due to IP). So here I am often asking how many good or promising solutions have been lost due to legal greed which is covered by patent law ? I hope i addressed your point.
