A Great Robot making #ios kids app by Tinybob

Image
The Robot Factory lets kids build, test, and collect whatever they can imagine. Robot cats. Robot samurais. Robot spies. Robot butlers. Robot wizards. Robot lizards. Robot dancers. Robot doctors. Robot moonwalkers. Kids can create thousands of different robots from 50+ parts: exoskeletons, zephyr mechanisms, hydrostatic tentacles, ungulate feet, machinos locomotors, solartronics, and more. Then, they can test their robots in a fantastical world full of obstacles. Whether their robots survive or bust, kids can build, rebuild, and retest endlessly. And, kids can save and collect all of their robots.

Helping the Bay Area Biotech Startups at QB3

Image
This is Nerd Stalker's first foray into quantitative biotech and we are just happy to find a gold nugget in our San Francisco back yard. We interviewed Dr. Kaspar Mossman of QB3 , an University of California public-private venture focused mainly on biotech startups. The typical startup cycle of a biotech startup is much longer than IT startups. Biotech startups need about three years of runway and their typical exit is being bought out by bigger companies who have the resources to bring the product to market. The interview site is a recent San Francisco-Mission Bay facility called QB3@953 which houses about 50 biotech startups and features an eight week accelerator program. Dr. Mossman discusses the role of QB3 in the biotech sphere and discusses in-depth what they are doing at QB3@953. Check it out!

The Law of Diminishing Returns

Image
n this new short video Richard Heinberg explores how — in our economy, the environment, and energy production — we may well be. When previous societies have hit similar limits, they often doubled-down by attempting ever more complex interventions to keep things going, before finally collapsing. Will this be our fate too? And is there an alternative?
