Nobel Prize laureate Monod proposed the Monod equation to model the growth of microorganisms. The equation is dependent mainly upon an organism's maximum growth rate and the concentration of a limiting substrate.

To find a microorganism's growth rate, the term for the limiting substrate needs to be constant, which led to the development of the chemostat.

Topiwala and Hamer developed a mathematical model to determine factors that disrupt a bioreactor’s optimal function. Their model describes bacterial growth in a liquid culture when an additional culture forms along the bioreactor walls. They found that wall growth expands the operational range of the liquid culture within the bioreactor, delaying washout until a significantly higher dilution rate is reached.

Elowitz et al. and Atkinson et al. both developed oscillators using synthetic gene networks. To create an oscillatory gene circuit, they utilized two types of genes: activators and repressors. By engineering gene circuits with activators and repressors, they generated systems with oscillatory gene expression.

You et al. successfully demonstrated and described a genetic circuit to consistently regulate communication and cell death in E. Coli. This circumvents differences the bacteria can exhibit though mutations, which would lead to further differences within a population. This genetic circuit was used in the experiment described in Figure 3.

This article details the impressive contrast between repetitive cooling and heating versus constant cooling of the peripheral nerve. The authors compare A-fibers, C-fibers, nerve blood flow, and morphology, and demonstrated that cold nerve injury is enhanced by intermittent cooling in comparison to continuous cooling.

Zanzotto et al. developed a microscopic bioreactor with a gas permeable membrane for carrying out bacterial fermentation. Their device mirrors the functionality of larger bioreactors and as an early showcase of bioreactor miniaturization.

Miller and Bassler described quorum sensing in bacteria and other microorganisms to coordinate activity. The key takeaway of the paper is quorum sensing is dependent upon population density to regulate gene expression.

Costerton et al. provided a detailed description of microbial biofilms through their own experiments and observations. They have found biofilms can form in any sufficient aquatic environments and have distinct properties compared to free-floating bacteria of the same species.

The last point poses a problem, since the study of a strain of bacteria can be influenced by the bacteria in biofilms.

The Larsen's and Dimmick's experiments determined the existence biofilms in early chemostats through observing microbial populations with different parameters, such as temperature, dilution rate, and different species of bacteria.

Their paper was published in the 1960s, in which the chemostats of the time were larger, made from glass, and had macro-scale elements, such as vaccine stoppers or separate inlets for bacterial cultures. One conclusion reached is the presence of biofilms increase with a smaller chemostat.

• comment / summary

  • The content on this website may be what some call "doomers" that support a narrative of unavoidable catastrophe and civilization collapse
  • The author does an excellent job of drawing together many scientifically validated research papers and news media stories on various crisis and integrates them together to support his narrative.
  • As the author states, it is still incomplete but it is comprehensive and detailed enough to use as a starting foundation to build a complex polycrisis map upon. becaues it shows the complexities of the interwoven nexus of problems we face and the massive network of feedbacks between them that makes solving any one of them alone in isolation an impossibility
  • The Cascade Institute focuses on social tipping points, complexity and polycrisis. We could synthesis a number of tools to map out and reveal effective mitigation strategies including:
    • Cascade Institute tools
    • Social tipping point tools
    • SRG mapping tool along with Indyweb / Indranet
    • Culture hacking tools
    • SIMPOL strategy
    • Downscaled Earth System Boundary tools
    • SRG Deep Humanity BEing journey tools
    • James Hansen's recommendation that the biggest leverage point is new form of governance
      • We need to rapidly emerge a new global third political party that does not take money from special interest groups
    • Progressive International comes to the same conclusion as James Hansen, that the key leverage point for rapid whole system change is radically new governance that puts power back to the hands of the people - power to the people

    • SONEC's
    • Indyweb's people-centered, interpersonal methodology is a perfect match for SONEC circle-within-circles fractal structure
      • mention to @Gyuri
      • I've seen this circle-within-circle fractal, holonic group idea with Tim's software as well as Roberto's
  • Feebate from local governance groups (from another Doomer site - Arctic Emergency)
    • https://arctic-news.blogspot.com/p/feebates.html
  • What the author's narrative shows is
    • how precarious our situation is
    • how many trends are getting far worse in the immediate future
    • how we are already undercapacitated to deal with existing crisis so how will we deal with new ones that are exponentially worse?
    • all these crisis will impact our supply chains. Why are these important? Our reliance on technology is dangerous and makes us very vulnerable
    • Think of your laptop, cellphone or other electronic device that relies on a vast, complex and globally operational internet. Imagine that tidal surges wipes out the globally critical data centers located in New York. Or imagine electronic factories in China and Taiwan are wiped out due to extreme weather. How will you get or fix a broken piece of electronic equipment? We rely on each millions of specialized jobs all working smoothly in order for our laptop to continue working and communicating with each other.

• epiphany

• recommendation for new Indyweb / Indranet tools
  • independent time and date stamp tool for every online, virtual sentence we write so we recognize in a long composition when we inserted a new idea
  • ability to trace rapid trains of thought to reveal how new insights emerge from within our consciousness
• While writing this, I just recalled that we should have a way to time and date stamp every single virtual online action, like in this annotation because recall happens so nonlinearly and we won't have a hope to trace and trailmark without it. Hypothesis doesn't have time and date stamps of every sentence available to the user. So we don't know what nonlinear memory recall led to a specific sentence in an annotation. We need some independent Indyweb / Indranet tool that will do this universally. Trains of thoughts are so fragile we can forget the quick cascades very easily.

It Took Decades To Create This Chess Puzzle Database (30 Thousand), 2020. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9craX0M_2A.

A chess School named after Genrikh Kasparyan (alternately Henrik Kasparian) houses his card index of chess puzzles with over 30,000 cards.

The cards are stored in stacked wooden trays in a two door cabinet with 4 shelves.

There are at least 23 small wooden trays of cards pictured in the video, though there are possibly many more. (Possibly as many as about 35 based on the layout of the cabinet and those easily visible.)

Kasparyan's son Sergei donated the card index to the chess school.

Each index card in the collection, filed in portrait orientation, begins with the name of the puzzle composer, lists its first publication, has a chess board diagram with the pieces arranges, and beneath that the solution of the puzzle. The cards are arranged alphabetically by the name of the puzzle composer.

The individual puzzle diagrams appear to have been done with a stamp of the board done in light blue ink with darker blue (or purple?) and red inked stamped pieces arranged on top of it.

The author is a "piler" and patently not a "filer", so she's definitely going to be anti-card index based here.

Small publishing company. Definite religious slant to the discussion.

Only worth a quick scan.
