From impulse purchase to pocket studio: The M-Vave FM-1
The M-Vave FM-1 is exactly the kind of device I have a weakness for. I may not have an intended use for the frequency-modulation synthesizer, but when a low price meets a high coolness factor, I'm powerless to keep it out of my cart. Initially billed as a pocket cousin of the famous Yamaha DX7 synthesizer, the FM-1 is a bargain at only $59.72 after fees. At release, it was a cool device that did what it said on the box, but not much else. But in July, some intrepid tinkerers on Reddit’s r/synthdiy board began reverse-engineering the FM-1's stock firmware to expand the device's abilities.
CO2-Induced Shifts in the Confined Phase Transformation of CH4 in Metal-Organic Frameworks
A sharp increase in gas uptake over a narrow pressure range can occur for fluids confined in nanoporous materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), reflecting a transformation between distinct adsorption states, often accompanied by the existence of metastable states. Understanding how co-adsorbed species modify this behavior is important for predicting and optimizing gas storage and separation. Here, we investigate the effect of CO2 on the adsorption transformation of confined CH4 in rig

Computational De Novo Design of Miniprotein Candidate Neutralizers Targeting the IL-23 Cytokine Subunit p19
Interleukin-23 (IL-23) drives T-helper-17 inflammation underlying inflammatory bowel disease and psoriasis; anti-p19 antibodies are clinically effective but large, costly, and injectable. De novo miniproteins are an attractive alternative, yet published designs target the IL-23 receptor; the IL-23 cytokine itself has not been addressed. A further obstacle is that the standard confidence score (ipTM) tracks construct length rather than interface quality. We computationally design miniprotein bind

Secondhand gifts are going mainstream this holiday season
For most of history, holiday shopping came with an unspoken rule: Never give someone a used present. A preowned gift seemed cheap, or worse, thoughtless. But that taboo seems to be falling away. For most of its 17-year history, ThredUp, which bills itself as the world’s largest online thrift store, saw a dip in sales over the holidays, in contrast to most retailers, who wait for the glut of holiday shopping to finally turn a profit for the year. “We were the inverse of traditional
