>Mycology is the branch of biology concerned with the study of fungi

Historically, mycology was a branch of botany because, although fungi are evolutionarily more closely related to animals than to plants, this was not recognized until a few decades ago

Thinking about making an app that lets you tickle the dragons tail. I am going to do some research about it but as a starter thought I might ask some smart guys. What were the exact objectives of the experiments with the demon core? Like what measurements were gathered by getting the darn thing into such a dangerous state.

Gemfibrozil is in the fibric acid derivatives drug class, which inhibits the production of very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs) and enhances VLDL clearance by stimulating lipoprotein lipase activity. This primarily results in reducing triglycerides and raising HDL-C. One of the earlier trials, the Helsinki Heart Study, assessed the impact of gemfibrozil in middle-aged men with dyslipidemia (non-HDL ? 200 mg/dL). In this placebo-controlled randomized control trial 600 mg of gemfibrozil two times daily for 5 years resulted in an increase of HDL-C by more than 10% and a reduction in total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, non-HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides by 8%, 8%, 12%, and 35%, respectively. The primary end points of coronary heart disease—fatal and nonfatal myocardial infarction and cardiac death—incidence was reduced by 34%.

When will you take the gempill, /sci/?

Anyone got a quick useful source on understanding Antenna gain? Specifically Antenna gain pattern
I need to model Antenna gain for an assigment and I've never took a course about Antennas before.
They gave us chapter 6 of constantine but it was overwhelming and I don't think I understand it.

Malcolm Gladwell mentioned in his book that for someone to master something, 10k hours need to be spent intensively practicing that thing... backed by "social science" research
I think this what happens going through a master's program. My question is... is it possible to cut this time by half and still achieve this mastery non-pseudo?
I mean in business you learn much faster taking high (calculated) risks... what would be the equivalent in science and learning in general?
