I'm spinning up a lab in Santa Cruz to research the local tick population. We could use extra skilled hands to help obtain the distribution of pathogens, and in developing treatment protocols. Plus, who doesn't enjoy a good tick hunt?

Getting liquidity to short or long on margin is as easy as clicking a button and getting liquidated.
Poloniex, Bitfinex and BitMex are some of the places you can play that game. You can even become a BTC lender on some of those exchanges and get around 20% APR since loans can be compounded every 1-2 days or even shorter depending on the duration of positions people open.

Sorry, order should be reversed: Power up via USB and connect VDD_5V.

I hope they fixed the Easter Egg that blows the CPU if you power up via VDD_5V and plug the USB cable in.

I'm around to answer any questions you might have :)

Interesting. How often is the groundwater potable during an emergency situation?

Are you talking about just the water generator, or the "civilization-in-a-box" collection of modules?

Can you point me in the direction of this project? I'd like to see what the current implementation looks like.

We're trying to do it at scale and improve on the technology.
> real issues behind water scarcity, which has nothing to do with a shortage of liquid water
Can you elaborate on this point?

Where should we spend our time instead?
Definitely not novel at this stage, but once we modify the AWG to achieve water reclamation from urine, would that be considered novel?
The next milestone is to create open source designs for larger-scale, commercially available machines that are prohibitively expensive, and improve upon them. The machines exist and there is a market for them. Is it not worth the time and effort to increase access to technologies like this?
Not just knowledge of chemistry, but actively developing eyedrops to cure cataracts :)

EDIT: Wording. Added question.

I will definitely look into that, and probably test a commercially available model or two.
