Soooo, I'm so exciting to present my own version of the magnetic connection for @UltHackKeyboard!

Inspired by https://t.co/xRG70VmsPk and https://t.co/koCfb4sRDv

So, I've used NetDot Gen10 Micro USB for the task.

I unwrapped one of the micro USB father part and get rid of the plastic in it.

I've decided to glue it on RJ10 socket, as far as I've found, this is the best place to put the second socket. Yep, I'm still have the default one miniusb!

To have an even surface, Ive cut a little bit the trails on RJ10

I've found it challenging to solder wires to the magnetic connector's pins, so made it in the another way.

I've made holes in wires with a needle. So then just put wires ON pins.

The next. Glueing a socket to the RJ10. Since the force profile will change, it's necessary to enforce the RJ socket. So I've glued it on the perimeter.

Then the mag-usb is put to the socket. It's the only fixing thing for wires on usb. Glue for the God Of Glue!!

Russia will not be participating as they've refused to take part in the hearing. Definitely the act of an innocent party.

Jacques Maire starts by explaining the situation they're investigating, the poisoning of Navalny with Novichok, and introduces the work of Bellingcat, as seen here

Jacques Maire also refers to the call between Navalny and an FSB officer who detailed the operation

Jacques Maire says no-one from the Russian delegation will attend, and will miss the opportunity to respond to the allegations being put today. The Russian authorities claims the poisoning happened either in the aircraft or the Berlin hospital.

For threat hunting, a non-trivial amount of the work is referencing, creating, and updating system and network inventory. This doesn't get talked about enough as a skill set that someone develops. 1/

Threat hunting is all about finding anomalies that automated detection mechanisms don't find. That means manual anomaly detection, which sometimes means weeding out things that are normal. 2/

For example, let's say you discover a binary that runs in the middle of the night on a host and that's weird! So, you eventually search for the prevalence of that behavior and see it running on other hosts in that department. 3/

At the same time, you find this host talking to a weird internal system on an odd low port you haven't seen before. In this case, that behavior is nowhere else on the network. 4/

Eventually, you talk to an IT person or user in that department and find out the process is some special software they use and the weird system is a dedicated server for it, and it's all legit. Job's not done, though. 5/

It doesn't matter if you're a Junior or Senior Developer, everyone uses Google to search for solutions.

What a lot of people don't know, is how to effectively search for the right answer.

Let me help you improve your Google search skills with these 16 tips!

🧵🧵🧵

1. NOT Logical operator:

You use this operator to exclude results if it contains the operand using "-" e.g.

javascript -frameworks

2. OR Logical operator:

This is a binary operator that returns a result if it contains both operands or one of them e.g.

(angular OR react) javascript tips

3. AND Logical operator:

This is a binary operator that returns a result containing it's operant on the left and right hand-side e.g.

html AND css

This returns a result if both terms are in the search result.

4. Exact match:

Use quotation marks to return an exact match in your search result e.g.

python tutorial "full course"

1) Align your topic with the exact keyword your audience is searching.

You can write about whatever you want... But if you don't use your audience's language patterns... They'll never find you!

High search volume and low difficulty phrases are the

2) Double-check the intent behind the keyword.

You found your keyword, but you need to check and see if Google & your audience think that phrase means what YOU think it means.

Do a quick Google search of the phrase. Do the results match your topic

3) Write your Title/Description at this point.

You've got Google open from the intent research, browse the titles ranking... Are they listicles? "How to" articles?

Your title is the promise of your post. Make it bigger, bolder and more compelling than what you see on pg1!

4-A) Outline the post based on the additional topics/questions/suggestions Google is showing you.

This outline will help you in 2 ways....

A) You will write MUCH faster

B) Your end product will be SEO

Grad school app season is (mostly) over, and since academic twitter is going nuts about the idea of paying research assistants $15/hr...

Let's talk about how expensive it is to be a student applying to graduate school--especially for underrepresented students.

(1/14)

This fall, I spent $515 on applying to grad school. This might sound high, but in fact, the cost was ~4 times less than it would have been in a normal year for me. Why? Mostly, the GRE.

(2/14)

Since the GRE subject tests were cancelled bc pandemic, every school I applied to no longer required the GRE, general or subject. I also had application fee waivers to 2/3 of the schools I applied to through various programs like AISES.

(3/14)

The general GRE costs $205 and the subject tests cost $150. Sending scores to more than four schools will cost you $27 for each test.

(4/14)

If I didn’t have fee waivers for 2/3 of my apps and if every school had required the GRE tests—which almost every grad school did before 2020—the estimated cost for me to apply to grad schools is well over $2000.

Allen Zhang the creator of WeChat (I am a fangirl) gave a 2 hr long speech yesterday abt his thoughts on the product on the eve of its 10th anniversary.

It's a lot on Channels (the new video function in WeChat).

Here are my notes & comments in parentheses:

WeChat daily usage looks like this:

1.09 Bn users log in, 330mm use video chat
780mm users view Moments feed (like FB feed), 120mm users post to Moments
360mm read articles, 400mm use mini programs

Why're we going after video?
In last 5 years, users are sending 33x more video msgs in chat, 10x more videos into their Moments feed.
Not everyone can write long content, but doing video requires new acct system (current public acct system is subscription based), we tried in 2017

but didn't get too far. But since video SO obviously the big thing in next 10 yrs, we began working on it for real in 2019. (Very late, if you ask me).
Channels is NOT like your WeChat ID, which is for PRIVATE comms. It's WeChat's foray into public content.

So now, you need a new Channel ID to make content, but not view content (use your existing WeChat ID & leverage social network / relationships).
WeChat tried 3 separate internal algo teams. Found that algo rec was much worse than people rec content performance.

Check out our last preprint- We use single-cell & spatial technologies to map the human uterus and inform organoids experiments

Mapping the temporal and spatial dynamics of the human endometrium in vivo and in vitro

We generate single-cell and spatial reference maps of the human uterus and dissect the signalling pathways that determine cell fate of the epithelial lineages in the lumenal and glandular microenvironments.

To study cell-signalling we use Cell2location (@vitaliikl) and develop CellPhoneDBv3 that considers cellular coordinates for the inference of cell-cell communication

We mapped 3D endometrial organoid cultures and benchmark the model to our uterine atlas. To do so, we develop a novel computational pipeline to align in vitro and in vivo datasets.

Our comparison highlights common pathways regulating the differentiation of secretory and ciliated lineage in vivo and in vitro.

Out of all the technological hacks I've used to better the quality of my life, the single most painful yet effective way to increase wellbeing, throw people out of your life who do not align with your values.

Don't wait; the soon, the better.

I'm not talking about disagreements; I'm talking about fundamentally how we treat each other when we are communicating & solving problems.

This means freedom to express all your feelings, not just some. Especially the ones you're afraid of sharing because of shame or confusion.

Yet, while my skill for expressing myself in person, online and onstage has increased exponentially over the past decade, my ability to not be isolated by these skills has continued to dwindle.

The irony of maturation.

On the one hand, to communicate effectively, you need a command of the language, a sense of self, and autonomy over interconnected reality. Oddly enough, the exact opposite skills need to be utilized to be understood.

In the past year, I have had two different scenarios with people I respect; both ended in months, the other in a day.
Neither relationship is gone, I hope, but the ground in which those relationships were changing, partnerships, agreements, deepening of commitment have vanished

...96 of Ontario’s 626 LTC homes have been outsourced, where the owner of the license has contracted a third party to operate the home. As of publication date, there have been 506 COVID-19 deaths in outsourced homes- 34% higher than homes that have not been outsourced.

Outsourcing is most prevalent among for-profit homes, but it happens across the industry: of the outsourced homes, 61 are for-profit, 30 are non-profit, and 5 are municipal.

Non-profit & municipal homes that have outsourced their operations had death rates that were 105% higher (3.68 per 100 beds) than non-profit & municipal homes that did not (1.79 deaths/100 beds).

It’s not enough to ask who owns the home; it’s also a question of who operates it.

Interesting they can’t answer this question....can’t easily blame older design standards now can ya 🤔

1/ The minimum viable thesis (MVT) is the precursor to the minimum viable product (MVP). Understanding your customer's MVT is at the core of technology adoption.
A thread.

2/ This a concept that was first inspired by conversations with @infoarbitrage while we were going through @techstars He was the first investor that had a questionnaire to drive a rigorous thesis framework.

3/ A minimum viable product (MVP) is the smallest thing that you can ship to solve a customer problem

4/ A minimum viable thesis (MVT) is the smallest belief that you have to hold to take adopt a technology

5/ More than 100m people have adopted cryptocurrencies. What is their MVT?

@Ayjchan @MoNscience @nicholsonbaker8 Is this not "willfully bioengineering"?
No one's implying "for nefarious purpose"

Maybe I made it up myself or copied it from an scam site?

@MoNscience @nicholsonbaker8 That *these* "researchers were willfully involved with bioengineering SARS-CoV-2" is published demonstrated fact.

okay so here's a snippet of what you missed on #neurodiverse TikTok yesterday; there was two things happening at once and they intersected so it got confusing

both things basically involved autistic tiktok vs ADHD tiktok which probably got really confusing for the people who are diagnosed as both. One issue was around gatekeeping and lateral ableism, and the other a more serious issue around research ethics vs. grassroots understanding

I know ppl on both sides of the research ethics debate & it's being dealt w already so I don't want to comment more on what happened there; let's just say that there are a lot of exciting and scientific things that eager ADHD folx are learning that COULD deepen our understanding

of neurodiverse physiological and metabolic practices but these are purely hypothetical and as neurodiverse people seeking to understand ourselves, we get excited, we info-dump and it becomes more of a question about when do you have responsibility as a content creator to clarify

and make sure your audience understands what you are saying and what you are NOT saying about things that have been scientifically proven to be related to ADHD?

That's probably as clear as mud but that's all I wanna say about that: onto the other thing!

I’ve been loosely following the @CRTCeng Third Party Internet Access (TPIA) Tariff. It’s been of interest to me as I had recently switched to a TPIA provider to save some money. A few of weeks ago I had noticed my providers website listed my plan but with 100Mbps upload. 1/
