As Simpson jr. had put it in one episode, leftover oat cereal is gross. But, add a bit flour, fry et voila - you got yourself roasted oat burger you can nibble on all day. Plus points if you got some fruits in it.

Anyways - oats, water, soy milk, flour. Mix and fry.

F..k sassy when simple will do.

Even discounting bad faith and charlatans, in the biological sciences (which I am familiar with) and probably other research, we get results... but even with meticulous lab books, it's hard to reproduce the exact same experiment and replicate the exact same results. Because we really don't know all the variables

But we can simplify this.

I'm not putting finished effects into standalone metal #boxes at this point; I'm #experimenting, not producing a product. So I have a simple #modular system I cooked up to connect arbitrary effects #experiments together. One of the things it does is handle the power-supply stuff, so each effect board doesn't need to do any of that. It just receives a nice 0V and buffered #Vcc (9V) it can rely on, along with a buffered 4.5V to use as a #bias voltage when AC coupling #signals, since this is a single-supply system.

So we can chop out all the power stuff from the schematic, which fills basically a ninth of the image - divide it into 3 rows and 3 columns, like the Brady Bunch intro, and the left-middle square is basically the power section.

But there's a bigger chunk we can strip out. Boss (and many other) pedals of the era frequently used "soft switching" to enable / disable the effect while playing. If you go back in time, real physical #switches were used, so the signal was actually totally disconnected from the effects circuitry when in the "off" position. This is called "true #bypass", as opposed to the soft switching.

#Soft #switching involves having two signal paths through the effect. One applies the characteristic effect, and the other basically just buffers the signal and bypasses the rest of the effect stuff. This is implemented with transistors and latches.

The IOF "has announced the deployment of a new artillery weapon as part of its ongoing war against Palestinians"
The IOF "described the Bar rockets as equipped with a specialized guidance mechanism...The system is designed to strike targets within a very short response window"

Fog cover coming in over the Bay; Hyde street, Alcatraz, Angel Island and Belevedere, Ghiradelli sign, Golden Gate bridge in the distance. Francisco Park was the site of one of the first (if not the first) reservoirs in the City built in the mid-1800s; its now a really nice park with a great dog run on Bay street below.

Locals are fiercely opposing the plan, we can create a global scandal and get monkey #BreedingFacilities banned for good.

The new "mini city" in #Georgia would breed and house 30,000 long-tail macaques before they are shipped to #universities and #PharmaceuticalCompanies that run medical #experiments on them.

While scientific advances are important, animal testing isn't that effective -- more than 90% of drugs tested on animals,

Hi folks! 👋

I am Ranjith (he/him), a #CognitiveScience #researcher 🧠

Currently designing #experiments based on #behavioral #GameTheory at the #DataScience and #AI Lab, Department of #ComputerScience, New York University AbuDhabi #NYUAbuDhabi #NYUAD #UAE (remote contract).

Previously worked as a #Research Associate at the Department of #Neurology, National Institute of #MentalHealth and Neurosciences, #Neuroscience #NIMHANS #Bengaluru, where I investigated the role of #Bilingualism and #Education in delaying the onset of #dementia.

Prior to that, I was in the #Language and #Cognition Lab at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, #IITKanpur #IITK #UttarPradesh, where I worked in the areas of #VisualPerception #Psycholinguistics (Visual Word Recognition).

I hold a Master's degree in Cognitive Science from the Centre of #Behavioural and Cognitive Sciences #CBCS, University of #Allahabad, #Prayagraj and a Bachelor's degree in #Electronics and #Communication #Engineering from Anna #University, Chennai, India.

Before receiving my master's degree, I was in the third cohort of International #Fellowship in #Health #Technology #Assessment #HTA at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, #IITMadras #IITM #Chennai.

I love #data, #theory, and bringing both together. I am interested in raising awareness of dementia. I also like to engage in #SystemsThinking and #DesignThinking to better understand #WickedProblems.

I am passionate about #equity, #diversity, #inclusion, and #SocialJustice.

I am #Indian 🇮🇳 by nationality, my family is from #TamilNadu, #India and I grew up speaking #Tamil at home. I am comfortable speaking in 🗣️ #Malayalam and #Hindi.

Excited to be here! ❤️
Nice to e-meet you everyone 👋

#introduction

I'm a political scientist at FSU. I work on computational methods and experimental design, applied to comparative electoral institutions, state policy, nuclear weapons, and political knowledge.

My most well-known paper addresses the fallacy of concluding “no effect” from “statistical insignificance” and shows how to make a better argument.(carlislerainey.com/papers/nme.)

I'm doing a 30 day experiment and I'm currently on day 17 of "#walk every day".
During my Covid infection I was very weak and it finally got better when I started to go outside again.
Leaving the computer and going outside is not my strong suit. 🙃
So I'm inspired by @evchapman who runs short #experiments to determine if new #routines would fit her life.

Read this thread🧵 for the whole story.
(I may need a few days to compile...)
