RTFA. it explains the process, simplified:
"Israeli scientists have created a detector, similar looking to a full-body scanner but with three concealed cartridges each containing eight specially trained mice.
Eran Lumbroso, and inventor whose company BioExplorers is hopeful a larger company will help with the final stages of development, said: "It is as if they are smelling a cat and escaping. We detect the escape."
The research paper is not about DNA mutations. Its is about RNA editing. Please read the abstract and ignore the useless ScienceNews article.
Please read the paper's abstract. The ScienceNews article may be complete garbage, but the researchers:
-Are investigating post-transcriptional modification of RNA, not "mistakes"
-Wanted to methodically analyze RNA editing, since our understanding is limited. This was a study to contribute to the understanding of RNA modification mechanisms, not overturn the central dogma
-Someone here mentioned that we already know about A to I conversions in RNA. The abstract mentions these; they're not stupid/unaware- they are trying to find other conversions, and understand _where_ A to I and other modifications occur (where they always occur -> why do they occur at these sites/sequences of RNA)
Please mod this up so that more people read the abstract.
The third thing you said contradicts the first and second things, but only if the second thing is derived from the first thing, because it is meaningless to extrapolate the outcomes without the statistical evidence to prove the contextual comparison. Wait what am I saying?
I don't know about $450 laptops from experience, but the 3 toshiba laptops I've had and the ones I've seen other people use are not pieces of shit (I buy in the $700 - $900 range for the specs I want).
My toshiba e205 does not feel like its going to fall apart if I move it around. My laptop fits just fine in the designated sleeve in my backpack. And there's no balancing issues. The keyboard is off center by one key from the screen, but I have no issue with that, as long as my body is lined up with the center of the keyboard.
The power supply has gotten smaller of the years and is roughly 4-5" long, 3" wide and 2" deep. It's very light too.
Macbooks are high quality and I love the magnetic power supply connection, but there are other choices out there that are cheaper and still have high quality.
You're using a keyboard! How quaint!
