A complete synaptic map of the brain connectome of the larva of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. Nodes are neurons, and edges are synaptic connections, traced individually from brain image sections using three-dimensional electron microscopy–based reconstruction. Node metadata include the neuron hempisphere, hemispherical homologue, cell type, annotations, and inferred cluster. Edge metadata include the type of interaction (`'aa'`,…

Uruguay used to rely heavily on oil & gas-based power.
But as the economy grew and electricity demand threatened to overtake supply from the early 2010s,
it needed to add additional generating capacity, and fast.
New hydro wasn’t an option as it had already made the most of that resource.
To chart the way forward, the president appointed Ramón Méndez Galain,
a particle physicist from the private sector,
as the country’s director of energy

With the holidays upon us, it's easy to default to giving the tech gifts that retailers tend to push on us this time of year:
smart speakers, video doorbells, bluetooth trackers, fitness trackers, and other connected gadgets are all very popular gifts.
But before you give one, think twice about what you're opting that person into.
One big problem with giving these sorts of gifts is that you're opting another person into a company's intrusive surveillance prac…

South Carolina already ranks 8th nationally in highest maternal mortality rate,

The Unborn Child Protection Act.
South Carolina Senate Bill 323 is one of the most extreme pieces of legislation we’ve seen.
It proposes changing the legal definition of the word “person” to include an unborn fetus.

Yes, they are even bragging about it.

But - besides the environmental insanity and the theft - it's doubtful it will even work out economically. I doubt they can get a return on what they'd need to invest any more. They'll need to plunder more than oil.

I guess it depends on the language. I use polars heavily with Python. It works really really well. It's not just faster than pandas, it's more ergonomic, more regular, more composable and less quirky.
