It's air temperature according to a linked article (
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2018/feb/25/mass-mor...):
> They concluded that a rise in temperature to 37C and an increase in humidity above 80% in the previous few days had stimulated the bacteria to pass into the bloodstream where it caused haemorrhagic septicaemia, or blood poisoning.
Here's a quote from Lone Starr:
> "State of the Art was traced by hand with a Genlock overlay and tool I developed. In 9 fingers the process was automatic, my program controlled the videoplayer, digitized one picture, traced it, and skipped to the next frame. For me the equipment at that time was expensive, about 150 Euros for the videoplayer (used the prize money from State of the Art), since it had to show de-interlaced pictures."
If you can only open one at a time it means the locking mechanism only needs to lock one drawer. They do the same thing with tool cabinets.
He's also a patron saint of Discordianism.
When I first started meditating I found the book The Relaxation Response helpful. It has a one page guide to activating the parasympathetic nervous system and is non-spiritual in its application.
Five mortally ill patients are in care at a hospital, all of whom will soon die. At the same time, a sixth man is undergoing a routine checkup at the same hospital. A transplant surgeon in residence finds that the only medical means of saving the five ailing patients would be to slay the sixth and transplant into them his healthy organs. Legal ramifications and other peripheral matters disregarded, it morally right to do so?
"Battushig, then 15, became one of 340 students out of 150,000 to earn a perfect score in Circuits and Electronics, a sophomore-level class at M.I.T. and the first Massive Open Online Course, or MOOC"
This is a second year MIT course in a language that is not his native language. While I agree with your sentiment about the use of the word genius, I think it is misdirected here.
I also can't see the scrollbar or scroll the page with OS X 10.7.5 and Google Chrome 23.0.1271.95. It works in Safari and Firefox.
>This October challenge reemphasizes the misplaced focus of Ludum Dare: make something overnight that makes just $1.
The October challenge is for the whole month, not overnight. You submit your game to market on November 1st but you have the whole month to produce it.
Near the end of the documentary it is said by Jiro that his son (Yoshikazu) was the one making the sushi when it was being graded for the three Michelin stars and that being the head chef is the easy job because all the hard preparation work is done by the people under him. I think this somewhat applies to Apple as well — while Jobs was an excellent curator of sorts, he was supported by excellent people like Sir Jonathan Ive and others. So I wouldn't be surprised if they continue to create highly innovative products.
