I've 3D printed my brain - I'm a biomedical engineer, and for a while was working for a research institute in France. While there, I had many friends and acquaintances who were doctors or surgeons performing their own research work. I had made noises in the past that I really wanted to print my brain sometime, so one of them referred me to an observational study in the area using fMRI to observe the brain performing visuo-spatial tasks. I went through the study, got paid €50 (score!) and asked for the morphological data in DICOM format, which they happily handed over. The DICOM is essentially a whole bunch of separate images, one for each slice the MRI takes, along with the metadata that helps piece it together. The reconstruction of a 3D model from slice data is usually called segmentation. I'm not overly familiar with the process, but I'm sure someone here can chime in with various segmentation methods. In my case I asked a technical medicine intern to do it for me. Interns can be useful, after all. AFAIK the output is usually a mesh, like an .obj or .stl file, which is thankfully pretty compatible with 3D printing.

To answer your specific points - I would go for MRI over CT - CTs tend to have high radiation doses, especially if you plan to do a full-body scan. I can't recommend it. MRIs are much less harmful. There are private clinics where you can pay for a full body "preventive" MRI - this will set you back a nice sum, >€1000 in the Netherlands, IIRC. Segmenting the resulting DICOM file is difficult. It will require a fair bit of work. Look into ITK / VTK / 3Dslicer. You will absolutely have to clean up and probably remesh any resulting stl/obj, I recommend using meshlab for that. From there, 3D printing can be done with any personal printer that has a large enough volume to not take forever. Using an external service, e.g. shapeways will be very expensive. If you don't have your own printer, you should probably look into an inexpensive FDM printer, I personally use an original prusa i3 Mk2.5.

All in all, it will be a very expensive journey if you're not already in the field and have connections. Maybe try to connect with local universities to find observational studies.

Excellent design, too, although larger type, larger savings indicators, and custom images instead of the emoji might be appreciated.

> Thats only if that feature is optional.

If it's optional, they need to know to make a decision to include or exclude it.

If it's not optional for the project, but the project itself is optional, they need to know to make a decision to kill or keep the project.

If it's not optional to the project , and the project is not optional to the business, they need to know to decide whether they keep or fold the business.

In any case, if they might choose to keep the business, project, and feature, they need to know because they have to budget for the cost if they do so.

So, essentially, business always needs to know the cost.

For my response to #3, an interesting thought would be to have a metal 3D printer (or at least access to one).

Not long ago, Bugatti made a 3D printed brake caliper out of titanium that was stronger and lighter than their own highly engineered caliper. [0]

Upgrading your skeleton to titanium might not be adamantium, but it sure would be cool if you ever needed the spare parts!

Finally, lest you think I was totally out there, SLM Solutions (who printed the caliper for Bugatti), actually has a medical division! [1]

The vast majority of Germans don't drive on the Autobahn at such insane speeds, and this certainly isn't an option anywhere else anyway (legally). Such a niche use case really does not matter all that greatly in the scheme of things. I can think of dozens of factors more important to me than "not being able to drive at 200 kph for extended periods of time".

But when you report it as a matter of fact in an editorializing headline, then it is a problem.

This was not the narrative portrayed, in the slightest bit. Had this been the headline and narrative, I would have had no issue with it, either. The stories that day were "Boy in MAGA hat harasses Native Americans" period.

I'm sorry, what? Why does having less cars create less usable land? If anything it provides way more of it, since you need less road, less parking lots/garages, less infrastructure to support cars like gas stations, huge on/off ramps, toll roads, etc.

I would disagree when it's a clear requirement of the work to be done (and often tossed haphazardly onto a resume). There can be some real time sinks that are not towards making someone productive in a code base as you have to stop and teach them how to think about Git. There's also the fun of having to use advanced Git magic to untangle their PR into something sensible because they've done odd merges along the way where they should have rebased their commits. People that still are from centralized source control only world still exist and getting them to work Git well is a skill that's worth interviewing/filtering over if it's a day 0 expectation.

> I don't think they'll let you dose yourself with that many X-Rays for fun.

There are companies that will let you get a "baseline" CT scan so that you can compare it with a future scan to see if something has changed. I don't think many doctors recommend this for the general public (because of the high radiation dose), but it does seem to be an available service and not prohibited by the FDA or something.

A CT scan comes with a strikingly high radiation dose, much greater than most people are likely to receive in any other circumstance. https://xkcd.com/radiation/

Re: expansion - I think the odds are really, really slim. Ski expansions at that scale just don't happen in 2019.

And my concern is that mainstream journalism that actually contradicts public primary sources isn't the actual problem. I believe that it is, in fact, vanishingly rare.

Take a look at niche journalism. The bias and narrative pushing is quite massive there. I think the "garbage tier" label given to such organizations is well deserved. Yet, when mainstream journalism gives its attention, it follows the niche journalists lead.

I find journalism that actually contradicts facts to be quite common. In today's climate, the mainstream can get away with complete contradiction of the facts, so long as the targets are obscure and/or unpopular, and the "right" narrative is being pushed. If you want to find this, then you need to start looking into the dissidents of mainstream culture in 2019. (You don't have to go as far as toxic people like the Alt Right. Rather, investigate the people who are being mislabeled as "Alt Right" as a tactic to marginalize them.)

> sufficient nose up trim was not selected by the yoke manual trim switch prior to pulling the trim cutouts

The EAD/service bulletin doesn't talk about sufficient nose up trim or caution against performing the cutout with even a slight mistrim.

> And then they did not work the mechanical trim wheel hard enough to reset the residual nose down trim.

It's possible that aerodynamic load (of the stabilizer opposing the elevator) made it physically impossible to manually trim given any mistrim at the time the cutout happened, given the airspeed they had. And, the captain is pulling back on the yoke as hard as he can, so he's unavailable to let go of it and grab a trim wheel instead without immediately losing altitude.

> And, when they (against procedure) (apparently) turned the electric trim system back on

It seems sensible to assume -- and the report states -- that they did this because they found that manual trim was impossible in these circumstances.
I think people are reading too much into an ambiguous statement. It says:

>At 05:41:46, the Captain asked the First-Officer if the trim is functional. The First-Officer has replied
that the trim was not working and asked if he could try it manually. The Captain told him to try. At
05:41:54, the First-Officer replied that it is not working.

"Manually" here could mean manual electric control. 8 seconds seems an awfully short time for the Captain to ask if trim is functional, FO to say no and ask to try manual, Captain to say Yes, and for the FO to try the wheel and conclude it's not working.
For that matter, embattled is often used in a context where there's no crime at all involved. A CEO may be embattled because he hasn't been able to turn a company around and the shareholders and board are being restless. In that case, in a sense it's code for on the way out, but only because by the time you get to that point, the handwriting is probably on the wall.

One would assume to the corporation donating the money. I wouldn't naturally assume it was to his Mom or "China." I think a fair number of corporations assume that if they're paying you to do research, that they're entitled to the research and any results you obtain from it.

If I were sending data "back home" I wouldn't be sending it to "England." I'll be honest, I wouldn't have the first clue who to contact, unless MI6 had contacted me and asked me for the information, which I doubt they would - I'd be honestly astonished if I'd ever done anything in my life interesting enough for them to even notice who I am, and I wouldn't have the first clue who to send it to unless they came to me. I doubt forqueenandcountry@mi6.org is a valid place to send file dumps. The only "back home" that would be relevant to me would be my employer.

Would have to mostly agree here, but it's trading time spent at one place for time spent at another. (Disclosure: I'm a Chevy Volt owner, so I have the option of both EV charging and gasoline, on rare occasion).

I recently saw someone make a valid point (IMHO) that I hadn't given much thought in the past: The time spent a DC chargers is somewhat offset by lack of stops at a gas station. Assuming you stop for gas once a week, and it takes 5 minutes to fill up and go... that's around 4.3 hours you spend at a gas station every year.

On the other hand, you may spend time at a DC charger during long road trips, but you don't have any obligation to stop at a location to recharge during normal commutes, since you simply charge overnight at home.

In other words, you have to stop for gas every X miles in an ICE vehicle, but you may have to stop for a recharge in an EV (usually for long road trips).
this may be a naive question but with all of the advanced technology on these planes, why isn't there a check for altitude before any automated command runs which says "hey we just took off, are 400ft above ground, MCAS is saying nose down, we will crash if that command runs, CANCEL"
> And, the crew left the power setting at climb throughout almost the entire sequence, so they oversped the airframe.

I believe that's correct given that they had an Unreliable Airspeed Indicator warning (due to the malfunctioning AoA sensor), per the memory items on the UAI checklist.

It makes the forces on the trim wheel much worse, which explains why they couldn't turn it, but it's the correct checklist response to the conditions observed, and the Boeing/FAA directive completely failed to take the impact of this response into account.

I read a study not too long ago (sorry couldn't find it), but it found the opposite - that ride sharing increased the amount of congestion.

At first it didn't make much sense to me, but the study did acknowledge car ownership decreased, but that there was more congestion. This was largely due to the time between trips for Lyft and Uber - driving from a dropoff to a pickup.
