Hello, this is Al. We have built Coronavirus Knowledge Graph app that takes some of the top news publishers and creates a knowledge graph based on the entities/topics related to the pandemic. This is a research app we are making available freely shortly. Any feedback is very welcome.


Funny, I am currently working on a (slightly less ambitious) project that groups headlines from news websites on a single page for you to compare.

Love the super reactive UI.


thanks for the feedback. great to hear. we do quite a bit of that for our main product loomi.ai. we should connect. thanks Al


Side project we did with BBC as a free research tool for Coronavirus related topics built as a Knowledge Graph. Currently, it processes all current and historic news from BBC, CNN, Fox, and DW published on the pandemic but we will add others soon. Any comments are very welcome. this is new and not shared yet.


Discovery of superhero material that is light and strong like nothing we have right now. Somehow I feel that making rockets more reusable and cheaper is going to win short term.


so true. Stress leads to burn out state which has to be one of the biggest productivity issues. The body and mind go into this odd state where they are looking for instant small boosts to feel good. Food is an obvious feel-good with many obvious 'next stage' boosts that people opt to get 'rewards' from. You could write the same article about alcohol, excessive gaming or excessive social media consumption. Personally, keeping an eye on the level of burn out is one of the most important lessons so far.


Quite a good discussion on the sinkholes, caves, lakes, earthquakes and fault lines.

Well, the noise and distractions caused by not being able to isolate yourself for tasks that require concentration for longer periods should be enough to have people dislike open-plan workspaces. For tasks that require concentration, the only way seems to be noise canceling headphones. I wonder if we will get to a point where VR/AR collaborative spaces will provide the next phase of co-working. It certainly would open up options for working from anywhere and for organizations to hire anywhere and still have teams to work in a similar way to being in an office.

Interesting application as the Space radiator material as opposed to an infrared invasibility jacket.


was thinking the same. not sure why tracking the boosters individually would be useful to most. I suppose the competitors might be interested.


Curious if the phone scanning devices require the user to provide their pin or if they have the ability to bypass phone access security (I suspect not).


Really interesting. Thank you for sharing. I imagine that on average most things creative or scientific need 10 versions or so to get to the final stage. On a separate note, wonder whether you would classify programming as a science or creative work, a mix of both or something else...


What's the difference between science and creative work? I'd say that science is creative work. Programming too.
