Weekend Links

1) "Dinosaurs, other than birds, are not kosher" (via Benjamin Kay)

2) "Tritium [...] spiked in the atmosphere 50 years ago as a result of thermonuclear bomb tests. It can therefore be used as a tracer for all the rain that has made its way underground ever since."

3) Bringing Julia from beta to 1.0 to support data-intensive, scientific computing

4) Have we been far too narrow in what we conceptualize as "geoengineering"?

5) The Bulletin of Mathematical Biology's special issue on the "Quantitative Science of Sustainability" (via Eyal)

6) On the practical implementation of gene drives to combat malaria (see also: “I am not sure what a Golden Age looks like, but I think we are in one.”)

7) Radical advances in live-cell microscopy

8) Locomotion through tensegrity

9) Small-n evidence of the temperature-mortality relationship in a coupled human-natural system

10) How much are US marriage markets akin to those of 14th century France?

11) "In general I believe economists do not devote enough attention to studying the topic of pain."

12) The spread of religions over time

13) Meanwhile, in the private sector space race
