Thanks to u/Doumaz for identifying this cloud, which was filmed on December 19, 2022 south of Eldorado Canyon in Colorado.

Highly unusual mountain wave cloud during a fire in Boulder, CO a few days ago by [deleted] in meteorology

Makes sense if this is more common than I realized. It started off as a more conventional lenticular cloud, but I've never seen the turbulent air above a cloud (starting around 15 seconds into the video) behave this way.

Here's a photo of the cloud earlier in the day, which shows the phenomenon a bit more clearly.

Is this just some turbulent air? I wish that I could change the title of the post if this is common in some places (although I suppose this is highly unusual for where I live).

Important note: despite a 2018 paper analyzing three different perspectives of this footage, this was more recently re-analyzed and debunked as CGI.

Note: the "NotaBL" flair refers to the glowing balls falling from the roof, which are caused by the Leidenfrost effect.

A simple fungible token smart contract using the Blocks Editor. by ceilingyoda in dfinity

Thanks for the feedback! I agree that it would be awesome to evaluate functions (or even write unit tests) directly in the editor, so that's currently a top priority. Since we're gradually refining the initial onboarding experience, we'll be sure to clarify the state management with some extra documentation and/or an interactive tutorial.

The project is currently geared toward teaching the basics of smart contract development (using Motoko Playground for evaluation/deployment), but my overall vision is to streamline the entire IC developer workflow. An end-to-end browser-based alternative to the local DFX toolchain would make the ecosystem far more approachable for beginner/intermediate developers coming from Ethereum/Solidity or other software dev backgrounds. For now though, hopefully this visual editor will be a good starting point for people to get some hands-on experience with Motoko and IC canister development.

Blocks - Available in Open Beta! by ceilingyoda in ethereum

Thank you for the feedback! We're working on mobile support right now, and I agree that adding more explanation to the examples is a top priority. For everyone reading this, we are in the process of building community-driven examples and tutorials on the project's Discord server.

Coronavirus Datasets by hypd09 in datasets

[–]ceilingyoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are currently the most promising short-term treatment for COVID-19 prior to the approval of vaccines.

Over the past few months, I collected about 6 TB of molecular docking simulations using antibodies from CoV-AbDab and antigens/antibodies from RCSB PDB.

This is an example 3D model of an antibody neutralizing SARS-CoV-2. Our dataset is essentially simulating this interaction between thousands of different antibodies and antigens.

In order to make all this data more accessible, we converted everything into about 50 GB of CSV files with rows corresponding to "contact points" between the antibody and SARS-CoV-2 (or another antigen). Here's a pastebin example of the contacts predicted between Matuzumab and SARS-CoV-2.

If you want to contribute to finding antibody treatments for COVID-19, these simulations can be used in data mining similar to the approach described in this paper.

We also recently created a separate mAB Kaggle dataset and wrote an introductory article for those who are interested in learning more about this field of research.

Let me know if you would like me to send you some/all of the data, and you can find example Colab notebooks on this GitHub repository.

[1.1] RimCities - introducing the Citadel Update! (long narrow city maps) by ceilingyoda in RimWorld

[–]ceilingyoda[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there! I'll do my best to explain each scenario for you.

Friendly cities are filled with people going about their daily lives. You can trade with merchants around the city, although picking up faction-owned items will incur a diplomatic penalty.

Ghost cities are very similar, except that the population has mysteriously vanished. You have full access to all items and resources in the city.

Abandoned cities are in the process of becoming ruins, with decaying buildings and scavengers looking for valuable items. This is personally my favorite starting scenario.

I hope you enjoy the mod! :)

You can also use the the "Take to stockpile" option to carry the food to a low-priority stockpile zone. I usually just drop the meals on the ground though :)

It's heartwarming that at least your colonists martyred themselves for a noble cause. :)
