Dissolvable glass made from amino acids can be used to create 3D-printed components that aren’t harmful to organisms – they could one day be used to make medical devices that dissolve in the body after use
As I mentioned last week, I did my first draft (a 15-team NFBC Draft & Hold league) way back in early October. It’s always a mixed bag drafting that early, but you know what you sign up for, and I won’t go into the sad details of my teams that will head into the season with a sense of things being over before they started due to injuries (note: and I wrote that before Edwin Diaz went down… so now I’m really in ‘don’t get me started’ mode, sigh). Please, blog, may I have some more?

Research using a quantum computer as the physical platform for quantum experiments has found a way to design and characterize tailor-made magnetic objects using quantum bits, or qubits. That opens up a new approach to develop new materials and robust quantum computing.
The Tibetan Plateau, the highest and largest plateau above sea level, is one of the harshest environments settled by humans. It has a cold and arid environment and its elevation often surpasses 4000 meters above sea level (masl). The plateau covers a wide expanse of Asia—approximately 2.5 million square kilometers—and is home to over 7 million people, primarily belonging to the Tibetan and Sherpa ethnic groups.

Revive tired peepers with these tried and tested formulas
When do we define a piece of nature in the city as a park? And when is something a tree or shrub? It may seem obvious, but in scientific literature the definitions vary quite a bit.

Taiwan is buying more LNG for delivery over the next year as it closed a nuclear reactor and is set to phase out nuclear power generation by 2025. Taiwan’s CPC Corp bought via a tender this week at least 10 cargoes of LNG to be delivered between May this year and March next year, traders familiar with the deals told Bloomberg on Friday. The LNG purchases are also part of Taiwan’s strategy to procure more gas to offset the decline in nuclear power generation, according to the traders. This week... Читать дальше...

Satellites that can better predict extreme weather and location-based text messaging systems can warn at-risk communities of storms and other climate-related threats to help save lives, the U.N. says
The traditional co-living form of three generations under one roof has evolved to meet changing family structures. The co-living form of one generation or two generations has become common nowadays. Modern living now prioritizes independence. Even the elders now desire their own personal living spaces, while younger members live nearby to care for them. As a result, modern housing is being reimagined to meet these needs of the modern living style. The common area is on the first floor, while the second floor contains the bedrooms... Читать дальше...
