That was a 4chan screenshot, analysis of which shows some pretty clear photoshopping [0]. All signs point to it being some kind of troll; I don't know how 4chan pseudonyms works but I can't imagine it having actual identity verification.
So if they are going to do this, can we get a signed affidavit from then that they will not call 911 and use taxpayer funds for a transport to the local ER when things go south? If so, then I'm all for it.
Good code review method, but that doesn't address the anxiety aspect, which is real.
I always tried to treat and see it as a teaching and learning exercise and not make it accusatory or negative. As a reviewer, see it as an opportunity to teach others in good code practices. As a reviewee, see it as an opportunity to learn, not as a slam on you personally.
Yeah, agreed that it is a good mindset to approach as a teaching and learning opportunity.
On the anxiety aspect, I think my point is that -- okay, exercises and workbooks can have their place, but the real way forward is to have a thorough understanding of the task at hand and provide your constructive criticism and help your team make their way.
If you need more context, ask questions. If you need to poke and prod to understand how the pieces fit together, then poke and prod. With all of that knowledge you can have a productive conversation about the proposed changes.
On the other hand, without all of that, then it is guaranteed to be anxiety inducing, since with your review, you are taking some amount of responsibility for a thing you may not sufficiently understand.
Here is a rewritten version of the passage at a 10th-grade reading level:
Most proteins begin to fold into their proper shapes while they are being made on the ribosome. Studies have shown that the way proteins fold during this process, and the energy involved, can be very different from how they fold when they are refolded outside of this process. Until now, it wasn't clear why the ribosome affects protein folding in this way.
In this study, we looked at the detailed structures of an unfolded protein both on and off the ribosome. We found that the ribosome causes the unfolded protein chain to spread out more and increases how much it interacts with water. This makes the protein chain less stable when it's on the ribosome compared to when it's alone. Tests using 19F NMR confirmed that this instability makes it easier for the protein to start folding on the ribosome, lowering the energy cost by up to 30 kcal/mol. This helps the protein form partially folded shapes, which are necessary for some proteins to reach their active forms. These effects also help protect the protein from unfolding due to mutations, suggesting that the ribosome plays an important role in how proteins evolve. By linking the structure and movement of the protein chain to how it folds and behaves after folding, our findings explain why protein folding on the ribosome is different from folding after translation is complete.
When I was in grad school they were trying hard to recruit people for a program of understanding protein folding in terms of the molecular dynamics of the protein chain in water. It was a doomed effort because it became clear eventually that proteins get folded as much as they “fold” so the protein, by itself, may not contain all the information needed to understand the structure.
I think it's a verbal marker of upward social mobility. Low status folks say "me"
when they should say "I," so some people overcompensate, using "I" too often. There is no "me" in "nouveau riche."
It’s not unrelated actually, there is some tissue inside the nose cavity that is similar to the erectile tissue of the penis. That’s why the nose gets “stuffy” from sildenafil, and that’s why you sometimes sneeze when aroused.
The Star Trek TOS look to these systems are one of the reasons I went into Electrical Engineering/Comp Sci. My dad and I went to the annual University of Wisconsin-Madison Engineering Expos in the 70s, and they would be showing off their data centers with these in them. I thought it looked so cool and sophisticated.
