    We're excited to share STOPCovid, published today in ! We combine LAMP and CRISPR-dx into a single-step, low-cost reaction that runs in 30-60 minutes, enabling a simple workflow for point-of-care testing and eventually at-home use.

    the nested acronym is especially nice ☺ > STOP (SHERLOCK testing in one pot) is a streamlined assay that combines simplified extraction of viral RNA with isothermal amplification and CRISPR-mediated detection

    it's refreshing to model knowledge work this explicitly

    Suppose you operate at 100 watts basal metabolism, and 50 watts for comfortable work. You plan to do two 4-hour things today, task A in the morning and B in the afternoon A can go right and take 25w for 4 hours, or go wrong and take 30w for 8 hours. 50-50 B takes 25w...

    1/ Covid () Chronicles, Day 181 Today marks a half-year of Covid. We’re increasingly told that "it’s vital that we remain vigilant.” But what exactly does that mean? So today: how to make sound decisions about risk in the face of uncertainty, longing, frustration & fear.

    “Climate dries the [wood] fuels out & extends the fire season BUT IT'S NOT THE CAUSE OF THE INTENSITY of the fires. The cause of that is fire suppression and the existing debt of wood fuel.” — Malcolm North, US Forest Service

    Stop politicizing a tragedy California's top *forest* scientists say main causes of fires are - 5x more wood fuel in forests due to 100+ years of fire suppression - Drought (2012-16) that would have occurred w/o climate change

    This isn’t a “because...2020” thing. This isn’t going away January 1. What we are experiencing is an existential climate CRISIS.

    Americas: Still the worst hit region, accounting for 38% of new cases and 61% of new deaths. But cases overall going down (and South-East Asia looks set to be the region with most new cases soon).

    This is stunning. Over the next five days, smoke from the West Coast wildfires will be drawn across the northern US to the northeast and New England and then wrapped into the remnants of Hurricane Paulette, which made a direct hit on Bermuda last night.

    The NASA smoke model not painting a pretty picture for the next 5 days in the Pacific NW. Also notice how the eastbound smoke gets wrapped up in Paulette later in the week.

    best strategy is probably to cool and pressurize the house at night, and then run outside-in air purifier at the minimum fan speed to maintain positive pressure during the hot daytime

    just found the missing piece to an indoor air quality puzzle that has long bothered me (how to safely cool a house that lacks central AC on a smoky day?)

    Replying to @micahstubbs @enjalot
    💡 to create positive pressure inside while the air is polluted outside, pump outside air in through an air purifier. here's an example from

    This, to my mind, is one of the most fascinating economic charts of the year. A distillation of the divergent policy paths followed by the People's Bank of China and other major central banks. (1/2)

    this tweet from March sums up nicely the reusability benefits of systems over the common N95 respirator

    We are using an outside-the-box approach, sending our experts from the field to train local hospitals and first responders in the reusable system. WV has purchased over 200 PAPRs to meet critical demand on the healthcare system during the pandemic.

    looks like California's counts wildfire emissions separately, as if the [size, intensity, frequency, location of] wildfires in California are not also anthropogenic. odd methodology.
