On the plus side, the author of the article didn't use the tired old "turbocharging" metaphor and went for the more uncommon "supercharging" instead.

Yeah, let's ignore Curt Connors lessons

Whee, this is where it gets really interesting.

12 Oldest Domesticated Species: https://www.oldest.org/animals/oldest-domesticated-animals/

I have a bit of cell biology, but most of it is old, like decades old. I just learned of Biomolecular Condensates last week, if you don't know of this class of cellular organelles, please take some time and read thru (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biomolecular_condensate). It's super cool both that they exist, and the tech we've used to establish their existence.

And so this article really caught my attention.

The article in question: Self-clustering of three CBX2 molecules drives PRC2 to promote facultative heterochromatinization of Polycomb target genes https://www.cell.com/molecular-cell/fulltext/S1097-2765(26)00104-8

This is clearly a paper about Stargate Atlantis.

American measurement unlocked

A year and an half ago I learned from The Aztec Dancers that a hand drill is sufficient. They lit the fire for El KooKooEee with a hand drill, last year, and the year before. This humble one was most impressed.

i find the implied intent here very weird.

We're way too far up the hockey stick for something like this to save us.

They would need to also build a time machine and start sinking these billions of tons of carbon all the way back in the 70's for it to be even remotely effective now.

(This graph is outdated already, I only downloaded it a few month ago. That line is even steeper now on quite a few projections.)

". These mature trees are at high risk of forest fires and store carbon less efficiently than younger trees." My understanding is that this was disproven. Mature trees continue to sink carbon, and at a faster rate than younger trees.

Just pick the book up and start to read it.

funny how north america is boosted by inclusion of europe there

meanwhile... politically that is the economical partnering to make. europe keeps being usurped into north america even now.

okay how much carbon & methane can this capture from a sealed 100 m^2 chamber with current levels of pollution during one year?

So why the heck does Big Pharma come up with such unpleasant, awkward, unpronounceable drug names?

Nawwwwww.

Either that or it reads "BEST DAD EVER" in ancient Babylonian hieroglyphic or whatever.

What if they introduced an endangered owl?

Sufficiently complex physics is indistinguishable from insanity. At least, to me.

Oh shit! They used the bad word! Now everybody going to Mars has to be a nazi. It's the law!
