Thank you #biorxiv staff for processing the pre-prints so quickly and nicely. Our latest manuscript addresses a rather specialized, albeit important, question in mRNA degradation in yeast. To what extent the Lsm1-7/Pat1 complex is involved in the degradation of mRNA by decapping activation ? By using a degron strain allowing rapid depletion of Lsm1, we find a slight impact of the complex on decapping, including changes in #NMD substrate levels.

Extraer SEMICONDUCTOR de cualquier Circuito Integrado de forma Fácil

Aprovechando la estación de aire caliente YIHUA 8786D pondré a prueba un método para remover el encapsulado de circuitos integrados que evita el uso de químicos peligrosos.
Con la aplicación de calor y algo de fuerza con unas pinzas es posible separar el semiconductor de su encapsulado para una inspección con microscopio.

How _does_ your phone track its relative position/orientation in space? Tiny little accelerometers and gyroscopes!

I dissected an IMU so we could trace it out in detail, play with printed models, analyze high speed footage and look at pretty SEM images

Cheers to all the folks I badgered with questions! ♥ The gyros in particular were a bit of a challenge to figure out, since they don't operate quite like a "textbook" MEMs gyro (or rather, they are more sophisticated in their sensing)
