Insufficient facts always invite danger.

Isolation of mitochondria is typically a laborious process requiring single-sample processing with Dounce homogenization. The [Mitochondria Isolation Kit](thermofisher.com/order/catalog) uses a non-mechanical, reagent-based method that allows multiple (six) cultured cell samples to be processed concurrently in about 40 minutes.

Isolated mitochondria can produce ATP from the oxidation of pyruvate to CO2 and water, provided they are adequately supplied with ADP, inorganic phosphate, and O2.

If the cells of an organ such as the liver are broken apart and their contents mixed together in a test tube, chemical chaos results, and the cells’ enzymes and other proteins are quickly degraded by their own proteolytic enzymes.

Walk 10 minutes to bank branch:

- Hi, how do I unlock my MasterCard for overseas use?
- You need to call the customer service hotline.

Go back to office, have lunch, call hotline, wait twenty minutes in phone queue:

- Hi, how do I unlock my MasterCard for overseas use?
- You need to visit the branch.

Cash it is then.

Oh, I am a C programmer and I'm okay
I muck with indices and structs all day
And when it works, I shout hoo-ray
Oh, I am a C programmer and I'm okay

A #mastodon exclusive! You are invited to play on a *REAL* PDP-8/e running the TSS/8 monitor (TimeSharing System 8) pictured here. There is a user contributed tutorial here:

wiki.livingcomputers.org/doku.

To connect, ssh tss8@tty.livingcomputers.org

If you are unable to connect that means all 6 (yes, just 6) lines are in use. Remember, this is real hardware and there is NO EMULATION happening. It is the real deal! Enjoy!

Oh fuck, the trump avatars in this info graphic are hilarious . Also this taught me everything i needed to know about this

@binsrc it boils down to fast approximation vs slow precise answer. When you are constrained on time, you just can't be slow. In teaching the constraint could be the amount of attention the student is willing to pay before getting any tangible results/gains.

The point of what's more correct becomes moot, especially when you realize that most practical applications of mathematical theories are fast approximations.
