The Chang'e 6 mission is a Chinese lunar mission that will carry ICUBE-Q with it. It's the sixth lunar mission of China aimed at exploring the moon. Chang'e is the name of the Chinese goddess of the moon. The Chang'e program consist of four phases:

The first phase is to reach lunar orbit to explore the visible area of the moon and create a 3D map of the lunar surface. This was achieved by Chang'e 1 in 2007 and Chang'e 2 in 2010.

#RahulGandhi not contesting from #Amethi but from #Raebareli can be a master stroke say some political experts , reasons:
A thread

1. A signal that Smriti Irani doesn’t deserve a contest with the tallest opposition leader , his close aid K L Sharma would rather take on her.

2. Contesting from #Raebareli means taking the reins from Sonia Gandhi in the real sense . Also making his presence felt in the crucial state of Uttar Pradesh by being in electoral fray , ally Samajwadi Party also wanted this. Good for UP Congress workers .

3. - Rahul Gandhi can now focus on a pan India campaign as he has the bigger responsibility to ensure INDIA's victory.

Also time & again Rahul Gandhi has mentioned that he doesn't want to leave his #Wayanad family. He wants to carry on his good work dedicatedly there.

Writing in @BulletinAtomic on the current H5N1 (and cattle and milk) situation, plus some May 3 updates, or how avian flu keeps getting closer to humans- but how close? is it pandemic close? (obliged to @MatthewField2) 1/n
thebulletin.org/2024/04/bird-f…

An important new preprint outlines that this was a single avian-cattle spillover event, and subsequent interstate cattle movements facilitated transmission between herds and some initial further mammal adaptations 2/n biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

A pathology study recently published by @EIDjournal confirms that cattle, contrary to cats, do not experience fatal disease- H5N1 has a predilection for mammary glands and their product, milk 3/n wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/30…

“Russia is seeking to exploit America’s divisive debate over Israel’s offensive in Gaza through overt and covert propaganda, with the aim of aggravating political tensions in the U.S. and tarnishing Washington’s global image”

“In its ongoing information war against the United States, Russia has shifted its focus in recent months to the Israel-Hamas conflict, seeking to inflame existing divisions in the West and to portray Washington as fueling the violence”

"as stewards of that public trust, I think we have to have open dialogue about that, I think we have to have transparency"

As cases of a worrisome respiratory virus continue to pop up in the Middle East, scientists who study it in the U.S. are struggling to understand how they'll be affected by a government moratorium on certain kinds of experiments.

(2/n)

One of those researchers is Ralph Baric, a virologist at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine in Chapel Hill. "Any virus that has pandemic potential, and that's any respiratory virus that emerges from animals, is a major public health concern" Baric says

Such a bad interpretation that stands to harm patient care

Let's not throw the baby out w the bathwater for COVID-19 (and flu etc)!

Suggesting to only run PCR & not rapid means most (50%-80%) of patients get WORSE care & at higher costs

Here's why:

A 🧵

1/

https://twitter.com/CIDRAP/status/1786081979521224936

When I see publications & docs say “don’t use a rapid test, only use a PCR”

it assumes this is an OR only situation

Ridiculous!

A rapid test is… RAPID… and highly affordable

You lose ~nothing by it and give your patient the opportunity to GAIN tremendously

2/

If the test is positive, then for that 80%+ of culture positive ppl … your job is done immediately

You’ve spent $5 and 5 minutes and they can get on treatment right away

If you didn’t do it, it will be be 1-2 days and ~$150 before they can get started on treatment

A NEW discovery, akin to a black-swan event-—unexpected but making perfect sense once revealed, would offer an approach to fixing broken immune responses in #LongCovid and some autoimmune diseases! 1/

Scientists have long known that brain plays a part in the immune system — but how it does so has been a mystery. Now, scientists have identified cells in brainstem that sense immune cues from the periphery of body & act as master regulators of body’s inflammatory response 2/

The results suggest that the brain maintains a delicate balance between the molecular signals that promote inflammation and those that dampen it —a finding that could lead to treatments for autoimmune diseases and other conditions caused by an excessive immune response. 3/

why do people use Excel when Python exists is the better question

also maybe this is partly given my quant background and style of trading but:
(1) I don't have hold periods long enough that I've ever even made a DCF, let alone looked at an existing model
(2) If I'm buying something on valuation I'd rather buy bombed out dogshit with a huge margin for error, and I just need TBV, NCAV, FCF, and P/E for that basically
(3) If I don't get stuff trading at 2x P/E I don't really care what the valuation is, because refer to #1

I assume it could make sense if you're doing scenario analysis, but there's a lot of fake numbers you have to do to make things work that have undefined error which just compounds

like my view is buying stuff with good momentum tends to be way more indicative of being right on the valuation than buying something on valuation with terrible momentm
