"DIY is all the rage for Pinterest users and crafty hipsters, among whom ideas for "do it yourself" curtains, jewelry and wedding centerpieces have found a happy home. Not so for PhDs and researchers, at least when it comes to those doing the life-saving work of cell therapy. This burgeoning life sciences field involves modifying a patient's own cells to fight the world's deadliest diseases, especially cancer. Despite an increased interest in personalized medicine, with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) announcing major investments in partnerships across the U.S and the approval of the first CRISPR trial in humans, to date cell therapy has nearly been just that: DIY."

"Entrevista a Ramón Ramón, especialista en TIC En una época de crisis económica y de recortes presupuestarios, el gasto de la Administración española en licencias de software privativo, específicamente en licencias de Microsoft, se ha convertido en un tema polémico en la red.

" Xavier Fontdeglòria Twitter María Fernández Twitter Pekín / Madrid 17 JUL 2016 - 00:29 CEST En el octavo y último golpe al mercado municipal de A Pedra, en Vigo, en la bautizada como Operación Cuarzo, la policía encontró 24.000 objetos falsificados entre ropa, calzado, joyas y tabaco. La actuación puso el punto final a varias décadas de impunidad de una actividad que llegó a ser un reclamo turístico para la ciudad costera gallega. En realidad, era algo más que eso. La juez embargó 1.100 cuentas a 65 vendedores, 38 coches, 140 viviendas y un barco. "Era una de las grandes vergüenzas nacionales", recuerda en su despacho la comisaria Mónica Dopico, inspectora jefe de la sección de delitos contra la propiedad industrial de la Policía Nacional. Hasta 2015, el centro comercial figuraba, por su titularidad pública, en la Notorius Market List, una lista mundial de puntos negros en piratería que elabora el Gobierno de EE UU, pero ninguna de las siete operaciones policiales anteriores había tenido éxito en los juzgados. A la espera de juicio, esta vez la victoria tampoco está garantizada."

"Learning about Bolero's recent entry into the public domain made me think about the concept of "open music" in general. Where is it found? What characteristics define open music? And so I've let my favorite search engine help me do detective work to see what a hunt for open music turns up."

" 80 down vote favorite 43 To work around bug #1005495 (changing LCD brightness via hotkeys impossible), I'd like to have one command line query for increasing and one for reducing the brightness of my LCD. I could then map a hotkey to each one of this queries. The problem is: I don't know how to increase and reduce the LCD brightness on the command line. Do you?"

"from the bad-ansi,-bad dept You would think that "the law" is obviously part of the public domain. It seems particularly crazy to think that any part of the law itself might be covered by copyright, or (worse) locked up behind some sort of paywall where you cannot read it. Carl Malamud has spent many years working to make sure the law is freely accessible... and he's been sued a bunch of times and is still in the middle of many lawsuits, including one from the State of Georgia for publishing its official annotated code (the state claims the annotations are covered by copyright)."

"Jul 06, 2016 By Doc Searls in Community Identity kernel Privacy I believe the best and worst thing about Linux is its hard distinction between kernel space and user space. Without that distinction, Linux never would have become the most leveraged operating system in the world. Today, Linux has the largest range of uses for the largest number of users-most of whom have no idea they are using Linux when they search for something on Google or poke at their Android phones. Even Apple stuff wouldn't be what it is (for example, using BSD in its computers) were it not for Linux's success. "

"This tutorial will show you how to install and uninstall applications in Fedora using PackageKit(Graphical) and yum(Terminal). I am using the Fedora 18. If you are the Ubuntu user, see managing software's in Ubuntu via Terminal. If you have just switched from Windows environment to Linux, first do the installing using the Graphical interface. It's way simple and easy. Whereas, application installing and uninstalling is much more faster via Terminal. You just have to be little bit familiar with the command language and Linux commands. Try both and implement which one u feel comfortable and easier."
