‘Suppressing’ might be a loaded term, as is implies cytokine storms are not simply a complication of an unregulated immune system (Vitamin D deficit) to begin with. Cause and effect need to be worded with baseline scenarios.

This. I’m surprised 3D printing hasn’t been employed more aggressively to cut down the complexity of production & sourcing. I’d imagine MM3D being used to create electro active polymer pumps acting in series to create the displacements (~.5L), and parts like pressure sensors designed in a simple albeit more mechanical fashion.

Props to Elon tho for taking on the task!

I think a dimpled fabrication would be best... with whatever amounts to heat sinks on both sides.
It’d be neat to see a divergent lens made of carbon metamaterial at the aft of the craft. (... or convergent depending on the shape of the craft)

My take so far (with limited research) is that Peterson is trying to evoke debate on the issues in a centrist fashion reminiscent of Plato and his cave. The ‘shapes’ of traditional societal structures are being bound to new normals on the ‘wall’ of the human condition; solving this jig-saw of a problem necessitates open debate & negotiation.
Seems more like a ~pantry~ for DNA synthesis than anything functional, especially given its four strands make for difficult reaction kinetics.

It’d be interesting to see an implementation with time-of-flight, the precision of surface mapping could only go up. Even combining an SLR improves resolution [ https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/192f/708e0470744667f8fc5f41... ]
Caste systems will never go away until the asymmetric advantage they endow to a majority is honestly weighed against the hidden costs of society manifesting self-fulfilling prophecies in the minority. Which way should the slippery slope slide? Should an individual’s means to succeed be the rule or an exception. That’s freedom, thats’s bravery in my eyes.

Apologies if I’m cargo-culting math... just positing.
Re:Mathematicians Find Wrinkle in Famed Fluid Equations on Friday December 22, 2017 @11:11AM (#15988454)
Well what I meant was shrinking the n body system to a point then extending that to a field. But it’s beyond me how the math works to invert those same force vectors to an impulse.
Re:Mathematicians Find Wrinkle in Famed Fluid Equations on Friday December 22, 2017 @10:45AM (#15988234)
Just the inverse n-vectors applied (regardless of space and field strength or possibly just instantaneous field strength). Always good to be called out tho.

I think bitcoin’s fixed-limit and deterministic transactions makes it a uniquely closed & conserved system (regardless of deflation and lost wallets). The discrepancies in valuation among exchanges & localities seem to show a relativistic (to borrow a physics term) quality. [I’m however not really into bitcoin or an economist though]
Re:Mathematicians Find Wrinkle in Famed Fluid Equations on Friday December 22, 2017 @07:55AM (#15987087)
Ha... I guess I can be a bit terse. Just think of the “turbulence” in navier-stokes as valuation fluctuations. Without the realworld dampening effects of regulation, slow tranactions, and managed markets — volatility along the lines of the infinite incongruities posed in the article are possible. ( note: Im not referring to a pendactic ‘infinite’ wrt a blockchain).

Re:Mathematicians Find Wrinkle in Famed Fluid Equations on Friday December 22, 2017 @03:57AM (#15986155)
Isn’t Navier-Stokes smoothness just a reframing of the three-body problem? Karl Sundman solved that one in 1909, and n-body was generalized in 1990 by Qiudong Wang.

Financial forecasting and risk-elimination in a system like a blockchain would be my guess — and in that respect it’s probably the most important problem out there IMO.

...maybe check if it's "convergence insufficiency".
Kinda funny the 'relevant ads' program was worse in my opinion. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windsor/bell-faces-750m-lawsui...
It goes further than arrests. It's contact, and associations. At least up in Canada [1] https://www.thestar.com/topic.presumed_guilty.html
It all boils down to money. Departments got a revenue stream from the churn of job applicant pool background checks. Now they're going with the SAAS model. It's a pretty bad ethical conflict of interest; that unfortunately someone without a job will never be able to afford to bring before the courts.
Re:Theranos reportedly laying off 41% of its workforce on Saturday January 07, 2017 @06:55AM (#13343657)
It sucks that the company probably has some decent IP that can change the world, but is (by my outside opinion) so top heavy business-wise that it'll just eventually end up locked away by competitors via some forced sale.

If I had to pivot a miniature lab that fails because of small sample size; I'd think of just making it invivo.

The word might be hypocracy... Hypocracy of power mongering.
There's precedent in pushing the envelope in law enforcement since Sir Robert Peel (if you read up on it). It's not surprising an analogous methodology has been promulgated. Hopefully a more appropriate solution is worked out.
Maybe by considering pi a fractal instead of a fraction.
