Different supplier may lay down different set of terms and conditions which need to be studied carefully before moving ahead with their compliance. Any deals without 2% performance guarantee should…
A combination of AI and robotics might help people recover from spinal cord injuries. A Rutgers-led team has used the technology to stabilize an enzyme, Chondroitinase ABC (ChABC), that can degrade scar tissue from spinal cord injuries and encourage tissue regeneration. Where the enzyme only lasted for a few hours at body temperatures, it now lasts over a week — enough to have a more substantial effect. The researchers started by using machine learning to identify synthetic copolymers (artificial polymers made from more than one monomer) that would last the longest inside a human. Liquid-handling robotics synthesized the copolymers and…
As a technical support expert, I’m bombarded by a plethora of questions about computer support as well as email support.

It’s been near – two years, since the time, most believe, this horrific pandemic began infecting humans! We seem to have lost many opportunities, by failing to act, when needed, in a well-considered, timely manner, under the auspices of scientific and medical experts and professionals! Over 800, 000 Americans have lost their lives (and, probably, even more), and several million, worldwide, and tens of millions (and more) have been infected, to various degrees, etc! It seems, every time, we feel, we have taken a step – forward, in this battle, the virus has mutated, and we end up losing more…

It is difficult to stay up on all the current events in world affairs, as there is always some conflict going on or some negotiation between nations. And then there are the rogue nations, and the United Nations, and groups trying to get together to figure out a solution which is fair for all concerned, that won’t lead to problems of unintended consequences. This is easier than it sounds, and it’s easy to get lost in the political international rhetoric. Yes the United States is involved in that rhetoric just as much as any other nation and each nation tries…

Do you really make yourselves believe you are governed by a democracy? If that were the case, as we have been made to believe over the years, why is that candidates – both democrats and republicans – spend billions of dollars to win elections?

Three books to read if you love politics: 12 Hour Work Days-Helicopter Parents-Serving One Purpose and Abandoning the Other, Why It Is Easy To Control People When They Are Afraid – Trump’s Motivation of Power and His Admiration…
