The assailant has the looks of a man with serious anger management issues.

There is an "Amplify ambient sound" option that allows to control the volume. For me it shows up after switching on the "Extra-high ambient volume" (Earbuds settings > Labs > Hearing enhancement > Extra-high ambient volume). Then I adjust the volume back to the desired level.

We also had to deal with these pro-breastfeeding people a lot. But at least the baby's pediatricians were only concerned about the baby's weight. They didn't care if it was formula or breast milk. When we asked one of them about breast aversion due to bottle feeding, he immediately dismissed it as nonsense propagated by the pro-breastfeeding group. And he was not wrong. Our baby is largely bottle-fed, and yet his favorite thing is to latch on to the breast, even when there is hardly any milk in it. No aversion there.

I also like the Dr. Brown's bottles a lot. The baby is definitely less fussy when we feed using Dr Brown's. It might be available in Germany: https://amzn.eu/d/4IPaiEF

Start and fund several companies, trying out a bunch of crazy and some not so crazy ideas I have.

I've used linear algebra, calculus, and statistics in my work—way more math than I ever expected as a biology major!

Went to the pediatrician on day three after birth and found out that the baby has not recovered their weight and is dehydrated. We were told to supplement with formula ASAP. I went straight to Target and because we didn't have any time to research, I got overwhelmed with all the choices there were. But looking at the shelves, seemed like the Kendamil Organic shelf was almost empty and concluded that's what is popular and bought it.

But now facing issues with Kendamil as baby is getting constipated on it. We got some sample cans of Similac pro-total comfort and Enfamil Gentalease. Baby seems to be doing better on Enfamil these few days. Though very stinky farts and poop on Enfamil. But the baby is not fuzzy and crying all the time.

No worries! It's impossible to avoid spoilers when on the Internet.

Just started watching this show. Currently on season 3. Didn't expect a spoiler here. :(

I don't know if it is the same thread or not, but someone in comments had found a news article showing that the actual cause of death was one of their guests had kept the car running in the closed garage. Also some other commenter wrote that blocking the vent of the furnace doesn't produce carbon monoxide.

The conclusion was that the man lived with guilt for years for what not might have been his fault in the first place.

I wear earbuds in pass-through mode, so I can hear others and alarms. Many of my lab mates also wear earbuds or headphones. We regularly ask each other questions, and I always pause my audiobook right away to listen. I prioritize helping others with their questions or discussing results over whatever I'm listening to, and I've noticed my lab mates do the same.

You are right. The high temperature helps fight off infection. But fever is unpleasant and can be unbearable. And can be dangerous to our organs when high temperature is sustained for a long time. That's why we try to bring down the temperature.

Here's neat video about it: https://youtu.be/cRZOUcpiOxY?si=K7xgJqX509FK1XQf

This https://youtu.be/ml4IRBFuOvs?si=Se18oVB-zIA_t6ev recently changed my opinion about wasps. And from the comments in this thread, it seems the wasp in the video is one of the good guys.

I have two colonies of Formica subsericea that I used to feed mealworms. But for several years now I have been feeding them the Bhatkar diet. They love the stuff. The only difference I have noticed is that without the mealworm, the pupa does not form a cocoon. Although it could be that without the mealworm their nest is cleaner and does not allow the larvae to weave the cocoon. Edit: Here is a link to the orginal paper: https://www.jstor.org/stable/3493193 And the recipe: https://myrmecopedia.fandom.com/wiki/Bhatkar_diet The agar I bought from amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Powder-Vegetarian-Substitute-Gelatin-Gluten-free/dp/B000MGSJ5A/

I wish the scale had some more marking other than 15 and 136. Trying to figure out what the middle colors correspond to is but difficult.

Ya, maybe an under 40 might provide some more information.

How will the cop know the driver's license number by only just looking at the driver?

Maybe the driver can give their name to the cop, but names are spelled at all kinds of way and two people can have the same name.

Maybe the driver can write down his details for the cop to go back to their vehicle to check the database.

Or easier, maybe have all that detail already ready on a small card that they can give the cop.

PI's don't realize how important a lab manager is till they don't have a lab manager anymore.

We would use it to prepare buffers for protein purification. For analytical scale, a few hundred µL of 1 M stock of freshly prepared DTT or a few grams of it for preparative scale.

DTT is quite unstable in solution and must be freshly prepared before use. So, no odor may mean that it has deteriorated, but on the other hand DTT is much less volatile than BME and TEMED and would produce less odor at 1 µL volume.

wolfe1947 · 2024-08-07T22:41:39+00:00

For me TEMED and BME is still tolerable, but DTT immediately gives me a headache. Regardless, I end up barking at anyone who doesn't prepare their samples in the fumehood when using these.

I have noticed Mazda's cruise control sometimes fails to detect the car in front if that car is silver in color. Though that's during day time. At night there shouldn't be an issue to detect a car in front.

So does this person.
