Morning Origami Sun May 26 with DJ AskTheQuestion on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

A cheery g'day t'ya

Ohi. I'm really glad to see you on the summer schedule

Me too!!!

Okay. But can ye see the mitochondria, which is the powerhouse of the cell? :)

They should have been able to see them, since mitochondria in neurons seem to be between 300 and 9000 nanometers long, and here they could see things on the scale of 5-10 nm

The neurons are indeed powered! ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡

But an image like that probably keeps the next 10 years of graduate students occupied because there must be so many details to look at

Honestly the color compositing they chose is keeping me mesmerized too

Yes, how do you effectively visualize such a huge picture?? You need to be thoughtful about color

I long for the day that super capacitors are used in smaller capacity devices like dashcams (to resist battery swelling from heat) and those god awful disposable vapes

The future is potentially bright! Though making vapes better is maybe not the best use of technology, imho

Introducing, an eco-friendly cigarette, burning up into only water and addiction!

I feel like making them more dependent on receiving a charge will do a service to stop people from buying and using them so much. I'm not a fan of how our finite source of lithium is being spent on that crap anyway.

Honestly you could probably do an entire show on the ethics of the vape market and how the "above the influence" type of advertising did more harm than good in reducing use. I watched a video explaining how that happened on a corporate level, to the point even that some of the ads may have encouraged teenagers who never smoked to start vaping.

I'm all for personal choice, but I'm also a big proponent of making people aware of accurate information about the things that impact their quality of life. Including being made aware of habits or consumable materials that are harming them without realizing it.

That stuff is so darkly fascinating. How we are malleable

The industry ads definitely made smoking seem cooler! https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2563637/

It's sobering that a paper from 2006 may as well have been from 2016 with how history repeated itself. Let me find that video in case you're interested in grazing through it
