Health / Biotech Startup Is Creating “superblood” To Battle Cancer And More by clementy117(m): 10:28pm On Mar 24, 2018
Rubius Therapeutics, a biotech startup that is creating “superblood” to treat a range of conditions including cancer, has raised an extra $100 million to make its dream a reality. Previously, the company raised $120 million from investors, thereby bringing its total haul close to the one quarter of a billion dollars mark — all in less than one year.

Much like doctors are using modified T-cells from patients’ immune systems to fight cancer, biotech startup Rubius Therapeutics is aiming to develop targeted disease therapy using red blood cells. Business Insider reports that Rubius’ CEO, Torben Straight Nissen, believes their treatment is “basically superblood,” since their treatments are made using red blood cells rather than chemicals or synthetic materials.

Instagram vs Snapchat have been around for awhile and each of them have seeked to out perform the other, Instagram set to Launch video call feature, that could give them not just an upper but a nail in Snapchat’s coffin. The two multimedia and social media platforms offers similar services. They are both playing the games of numbers both seek to get the highest this and that, well in this space more user or subscribers translate more money.
Snapchat is an image messaging and multimedia mobile application created by Evan Spiegel, Bobby Murphy, and Reggie Brown,the three of them are former students at Stanford University.
The main selling Point or the principal concepts of Snapchat is that pictures and messages are only available for a short time before they become inaccessible (the 24 hours stories). The app has evolved from originally focusing on person-to-person photo sharing to presently featuring “Stories” of 24-hour chronological content, along with “Discover” to let brands show ad-supported short-form entertainment. Snapchat has become notable for representing a new, mobile-first direction for social media, and places significant emphasis on users interacting with virtual stickers and augmented reality objects. SnapChat is developed and owned by Snap INC, Originally called Snapchat Inc. A scrappy name if you ask me, granted the changed.

Nairaland / General / Responsible Behavior In High School Stick Around 50 Years Later by clementy117(m): 10:56am On Mar 16, 2018
A responsible behavior bring success 50 years later. It pays to be good.
A study conducted by specialists from the University of Illinois psychology, University of Houston and University of Tuebingen links being interested and behaving responsibly in high school leads to better academic and career success as many as 50 years later.
The study reported in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.

Researchers report that it holds true even after accounting for parental income, IQ and other factors known to impact achievement.

Professor Brent Roberts, University of Illinois psychology said, “Yes, intelligence is important to life success and so is family socioeconomic status; we’ve known this for a while.”

“Studies have shown that personality traits such as conscientiousness, agreeableness, and openness also correspond to higher academic and career achievement. But these are traits you’re more or less born with. We wanted to know if factors under the control of the individual at a young age might also play a role.”

During the investigation, they analyzed decades of data gathered by the American Institutes for Research commenced in 1960 to at present. The original data set to incorporate more than 370,000 students. High school participants were originally tested on academic, cognitive and behavioral characteristics in 1960 and likewise reacted to follow-up surveys in later years.

Science/Technology / Extreme Re-listening Can Bring Comfort. by clementy117(m): 9:20am On Mar 15, 2018
Listening to music has profound impact on us, it can makes us happy, thoughtful, encourage, sad, and a lot of other emotions, this can lead to extreme re-listening. The availability of digital music through streaming services and YouTube makes it easier than ever for people to listen to virtually any song anytime.Then there is extreme re-listening, a situation where you listen to your favorite song over and over. Scientist have been researching the effect of listening to a particular movie over and over.
In a new study at the University of Michigan, researchers have find that people really enjoy replaying their favorite song hundreds of times even after the novelty and surprise are gone. These songs may lack the element of surprise that comes with a new song. I think the finding of this study is very interesting.

Science/Technology / Re: Long Range Wireless Charging : You Can Charge Your Phone From Across The Room by clementy117(m): 8:53am On Mar 14, 2018
I think that aspect has been taken into consideration.

Sometimes a technology can be so good and the advantages out weighs any possible health risk. Example Mobile phones.
Science/Technology / Long Range Wireless Charging : You Can Charge Your Phone From Across The Room by clementy117(m): 7:36pm On Mar 12, 2018
The future is here already. Wireless Charging has been around on Samsung and Iphone but very different from what I am about to write about in this article. Wireless charging tech of the kind employed by Apple, Samsung, and other device makers still involves plugging in a charging pad and putting your phone on it. Apple, IKEA, LG and Samsung had used the Qi (pronounced Chi) Standard charger for their wireless devices.


Qi standard is a method of inductive and resonant charging that works at farther distances than just directly from the transmission point. Qi is certified by the Wireless Power Consortium. The Consortium state that “With inductive charging, the charge passes between a transmitter and receiver coil placed closely together, usually only separated by the outer casing of the two devices (<7mm).” With resonant charging, “the transmitter can detect and charge existing Qi receivers at greater distances (up to 45mm).”
Fast forward to the present, we are now going to talk about long range wireless charging. Wireless technology is constantly being researched and such scholarly effort is bearing fruit already. Nikola Tesla’s dream of wireless electricity is becoming a dream.

More Advance Tech[b][/b]

Engineers at the University of Washington may now have developed the type of long-range smartphone wireless charging people are craving for, and just like the a lot of attention-grabbing tech innovations, it involves a laser. The result sounds something from a James Bond Movie.

The report of the study has been published in the Proceedings of the Association for Computing Machinery on Interactive, Mobile, Wearable & Ubiquitous Technologies, the technology involves firing a narrow, invisible beam from a laser emitter, which can deliver a charge to a smartphone sitting on the other side of the room. This is achieved by mounting a thin power cell to the back of a smartphone, which enables it to absorb power from the laser. According to the team, the laser tech is as efficient for charging as plugging your smartphone charger into a USB port.

Nairaland / General / Steve Cutts Illustrated The Sad Truth About The System Of Things by clementy117(m): 2:23pm On Mar 11, 2018
The System of things is broken. Mankind can’t permanently fixed this world, but a little effort in that respect is welcomed, that is where Steve Cutts comes in. .

Inspiration can come from anywhere. The level of insanity going on is shocking and majority of the world take it as normal. We can inspire a change in our locality or even the world at large, even though such change may be temporary in this world. Permanent change for good can only come from the creator.

Each person can still give his quota to making the world, a little conducive for each one of us. Just think of it this way. You and your neighbor frequently take out your trash and dispose of them properly , you will both create a good environment for living.

Insanity of the World
The world system of doing things need to be changed, sadly many have accepted the status quo. Truth is live on this planet is at immense risk, if things continue the way they are going. Humanity seem to be in a vicious loop of commercialism, consumerism, meeting ends, money, food, vanity and pursuit of the illusive happiness. We live in a world were the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. Co-operations in their greed are squandering the global resources for their selfish gains. The world resources is being plundered even to the risks of our own human survival. Then came social media, nothing has disrupted mankind like smart hand held devices with it endless repertoire of applications.

One of the holy books clearly states that the world we are living in is under the power or force of the wicked one. He pulls strings from the background, no wonder the world and it system is in such a mess. Additionally he seems to put a veil on everyone, a few break free, but most can’t see that the system of things is flawed.

Health / Hypoglycemia And Diabetes : Fruits With Most Sugar Content That You Need Know Ab by clementy117(m): 12:31pm On Mar 04, 2018
Before I go any further with this article , I will like to state clearly that sugar is not all that bad. In fact we need , no, we all require sugar to survive..........................

Now lets think about those suffering from Hypoglycemia, (Hypoglycemia occurs when blood glucose levels fall below 4 mmol/L (72mg/dL) a condition also know as low blood sugar. An hypoglycemia patient requires daily intake of sugar beverages, they need sugary things to function properly. In rare cases could lead to coma or even death.

The main symptoms associated with hypoglycemia are:

Sweating
Fatigue
Feeling dizzy
Hypoglycemia is not to be confused with Diabetes. In fact they are very opposite of each other. Diabetes in other word is a set of conditions that may result in high blood sugar.

Most of the food we eat is turned into glucose, or sugar, for our bodies to use for energy.

The pancreas, an organ that lies near the stomach, makes a hormone called insulin to help glucose get into the cells of our bodies.

When you have diabetes, your body either doesn’t make enough insulin or can’t use its own insulin as well as it should.

This causes sugars to build up in the blood.

Diabetes can cause serious health complications including heart disease, blindness, kidney failure, and lower-extremity amputations.

Diabetes is predicted by a clear set of symptoms, but it still often goes un-diagnosed.

The main 3 diabetes signs are:

Increased thirst
Increased need to urinate
Increased hunger


Sugar is the generic name for sweet-tasting, soluble carbohydrates, many of which are used in food. There are various types of sugar derived from different sources. Since source of sugar is aplenty, we will focus on those gotten from fruits.

Nature has abundantly afford us with ample variety of fruits, while they all appear and taste differently they also contain varying degree of sugar.

In this article, our Scope of fruit will be limited to the fruit with most sugar content. These fruits can be life saving to a patient with hypoglycemia and harmful to diabetic patient. In any case if you have any of the above conditions , kindly visit a doctor. Lets get on with the list which is in no particular order.

Science/Technology / Seeing Your Phone Nearby Can Mess You Up by clementy117(m): 2:08pm On Mar 02, 2018
No kidding!

Switching it off or placing it face down just wont help you escape your fate.

Minding your business has just become harder as this new research seems to suggest. Having you phone around or nearby when you are doing something or discussing can mess with your brain memory, as you will struggle to concentrate.
According to a new research by the scientists at the University of Texas at Austin, our smartphones now become the good source of distraction. Its mere presence will cut back our memory power, whether or not we are using it or not. Scientists suggest the study may lead to better understanding of the risks of being continually connected and available.
The study suggests, having phones close means some of our memory power is inevitably expended as we attempt to not be distracted.

No doubts that our smartphone becomes more noticeable. When your phone is nearby, your conscious mind isn’t thinking about your smartphone, but that process of requiring yourself to not think about something uses up some of your limited cognitive resources. In other words, it is called as brain drain.

Nairaland / General / By 2020 BLINDNESS Will Be Extinct With This NEW TECH by clementy117(m): 12:29pm On Mar 02, 2018
eSight Are Changing Blind People’s Lives By Enabling them to see With Smartglasses

Over the years there has been amazing innovations that touches lives. Every once in a while, we see technology that is unlikely to actually be experienced by most people, but is truly transforms and change the life for selected number of people.
In the just concluded CES2018, eSight is one of the innovation that will transforms the lives of blind people. eSight is a pair of smart glasses that gives blind people the ability to see. That’s amazing enough, but the glasses — which look like a cross between PlayStation VR and the HushMe Mask, — are so effective that in some cases the previously blind person may have the best sight in the room when wearing them.

The eSight is a visor-like device worn on the head, with a pair of corrective glasses built in if they’re needed. A high-speed camera views the world around the wearer, projecting the image onto a pair of OLED screens, where special software enhances and cleans up the image. There’s no lag, the images produced don’t have a digital appearance, and because the visor can be lowered and lifted, peripheral vision isn’t ruined. It’s arguably the true definition of augmented reality.

Digital Trend reported that they met Rosa Henderson, who is legally blind and has been since birth, at CES 2018. She has been wearing eSight for several months, and her story is one that shows the human side of cutting-edge modern tech. She didn’t talk about how something helped her productivity, or solved a very specific problem, but about something that lets her live. She said eSight gives her control over everyday life, confidence, and independence like no other device before it. It enables her to do the everyday things most people take for granted.
Digital Trend, in their bid to buttress their point, gave an illustration, about Henderson.

Henderson talked about attending classes at college, where she would normally have to make special arrangements ahead of time to sit at the very front of the room, and often bring an assistant along to help with dictation and note-taking. That’s after making the journey to the college in the first place, which may have involved the help of other people, using a cane, or owning a service animal — and always required considerable planning. Not impossible, but hugely restrictive, and very reliant on others. It’s hard for sighted people to understand how difficult all this is. Imagine performing your everyday routine with your eyes closed, and it’s probably pretty similar.

Nairaland / General / Rape Victims’ Clothing On Display At Belgian Exhibition by clementy117(m): 8:27pm On Feb 26, 2018
Yearly global rape statistics is growing, many blame the victims, claiming the dressed provocatively or flirted with the perpetrators.

Organizers of an exhibition in Brussels are in a campaign to dispel the myth surrounding rape and rape victims.

An exhibition in Brussels is displaying clothing worn by rape victims at the time they were attacked, reportedly to dispel the “stubborn myth” that provocative dress is a factor in violent sexual crimes.

This exhibition is inspired by a project created by students at the University of Kansas.

The exhibition, held in the Molenbeek district of the Belgian capital, is called “Is it my fault?” It refers to the self-doubt that many victims feel after an attack, the Flanders News website reports.

The clothes loaned to the organisers – victim support group CAW East Brabant – include tracksuit bottoms, pyjamas and dresses.

CAW’s Liesbeth Kennes told VRT1 radio “What you immediately notice when you walk around here: they are all very normal pieces that anyone would wear.

“There is even a children’s shirt with an image of ‘My Little Pony’ in the exhibition, which brings home a harsh reality,” she said.

Nairaland / General / Dream Light Launches A Sleeping Mask. by clementy117(m): 6:54pm On Feb 21, 2018
Dream Light Sleeping mask was brought to the fore in the CES 2018 , They promise to solve a lot of sleep related issues including the ability to lessen the effects of jet lag, recommend adjustments to your sleep habits based on your 23andMe profile, and, um, project infrared light to supposedly help with under eye circles.

Can you relax when there’s a pillow wrapped around your head that streams a barrage of ambient nose into your ears and pulses orange light onto your eyelids? I felt more amped than calm when I tried on the Dreamlight, a Bluetooth-connected sleep mask on display on Tuesday at the CES tech show here in Las Vegas. The creators of the mask will launch an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign for the product this month.

The Dreamlight is a gray, cushioned mask that covers your eyes and ears. After you fasten it on, an orange light dims and illuminates that is supposed to be a guide for your breathing: inhale as the light goes on, exhale as it goes off. Ambient sound also plays to block out noise — I heard a mixture of what sounded like light jazz and rainforest sounds.

Programming / Youtube To Issue New Policy, After Paul Logan Japan “suicide” Video by clementy117(m): 9:00am On Feb 21, 2018
All great businesses remain great by holding on to a good reputation. YouTube is a reputable company in the video and streaming business. It seeks to remain so. The video content on it platform could make or Mar it as a company. Lately, the platform which is owned by google has come under criticism from users and even video content makers alike.Some Weeks ago a popular video Blogger on YouTube, was on the spot light for negative reason. The Video blogger Logan Paul posted a video from the Japanese Suicide forest.

The video was viewed millions of times before its removal. He later apologized and admitted it had been “misguided”.The group appeared to be shocked at their find, but also made jokes. The clip was labelled “disrespectful” and “disgusting” by users online, who accused the YouTube star of trivializing mental illness.

The controversial video was posted on 31 December, and showed Paul and his friends during a trip to Japan discovering the body of a man in the Aokigahara forest at the base of Mount Fuji, known to be a frequent site of suicides.

In response, Paul’s channels were removed from YouTube’s Google Preferred programme, where brands sell ads on the platform’s top 5% of content creators. He has since turned a new leave, coming out opening to apologize, talking with suicide survivors and promising to donate 1million Dollars to suicide related research and aid of victim’s families.

That episode, though ended, has left a mark, it has made YouTube to take an inward look at their policy. Something, I think is wise from a company looking to stand the taste of time.

Health / Scientists Successfully Prevent The Growth Of Pancreatic Cancer by clementy117(m): 2:28am On Feb 20, 2018
A respiratory virus has been utilized to effectively restrain the growth of pancreatic cancer as indicated by an early examination by scientists at Cardiff University and Barts Cancer Institute (BCI) of Queen Mary University of London (QMUL).

The investigation, supported by the philanthropy Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund, recommends that the new system could possibly turn into a promising new treatment for patients with the forceful ailment, and could be joined with existing chemotherapy to enhance odds of survival.

This a rare condition know as rectal relapse.
