SteemSTEM Distilled #45

in #steemstem7 years ago (edited)

Welcome to the 45th issue of SteemSTEM Distilled, a bi-weekly curation effort by the members of the @steemstem team.

SteemSTEM is a community driven project which seeks to promote well-written and informative Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics posts on Steemit. The project involves curating STEM-related posts through upvoting, resteeming, offering constructive feedback, supporting scientific contests, and other related activities.

For more details, a recent update on the steemSTEM can be found here, and a not so recent one there. Moreover, if you ask yourself about what it means to be part of steemSTEM, please check here.


Our team scours the platform for original and quality content.

After working through thousands (literally!) of STEM-related posts and upvoting more than 150 that we deemed to be worthy, we proudly present you our top 6 handpicked choices for this Monday-Wednesday period.


Monday


Helping Communities 'Go Green'



Another beautiful post by @gra is here. This time our topic is how GIS and spatial data can help towards making the use of renewable energy easier.


Insight #9: Implicit memory - remembering without awareness


In this wonderful piece @saunter continues his journey in the world of memory. Don't miss this stop ;)


Tuesday


Sex Differences: Do females and males have different brains? Pt 3




Let's go to biology! An amazing series keeps flooding our feed with diamonds! Read the next part of @alexander.alexis' Sex Differences episodes discussing... brains!




Maxwell's Demon: Violation of The Second Law of Thermodynamics



How about some physics now? @anevolvedmonkey has decided to break down the second law of thermodynamics, don't you want to see how?





Wednesday


The Scattered Debris That Makes the Planet

Do you like space posts? Read this one by @irza to learn interesting stuff about asteroids, the flying debris floating around our planetary neighborhood.

Generation of Electricity from Human Footsteps: Taking a closer look



And some more physics for the end! A beautiful post by @ibk-gabriel on kinetic energy and how we can harvest electricity just by... walking!



A few words about the nomination process


For the sake of transparency we feel we need to clarify how our nomination process works; each issue is compiled by certain members of the SteemSTEM community. This mid-week's editorial team was comprised of @ruth-girl.

The editorial team chooses their favorite posts for the week and each issue is the result of their joined effort. In order to keep the process fair, posts written by the editorial team are excluded from the nomination process.

Don't be discouraged if you didn't make it on this issue. The competition is harsh and there is always a next time :)

See you all next Monday!

Sort:  

Guess what, the distilled is even more delayed ;)

Congrats to everyone ^^

I would say it's a few days early!

Thank you to @ruth-girl for distilled, and of course, thank you to the steemstem management, curators,
and honor members for the many hours of their own time they put in to make all this possible!

The next one may actually be on time, as I will be closer to your timezone. Delayed will then mean on time :D

Better late than never :)

LOL, being waiting on it..Now we have it!

The distilled time is now a random variable ;)

Lol, who called "randint" on it?

Turned out nice though

Just an integer? Booooh :D

I guess you declared a variable on it already......

Boom!!!!

Iron man is here too. Omnipresence

I am everywhere. Beware ;)

I can see you're using the Tony Stark's power well...

It finally came... Glad it did

We are trying to cover different time zones, that's all :P

Got it... Just going at the other end of the world... pfff... :)

Congrats to the enlisted accounts, the articles are really educative

Big congrats to the hand-picked authors, they well deserve it. And also to everyone that got voted.

Steemstem can only get better. Go SteemSTEM!!

Also, nice job by team @ruth-girl :)

Always here to encourage people's good work! Thank you @samminator!

It's an honour

The weekly report of awesomeness! Congrats to the authors and cheers to the team ;)))

Report of awesomeness? I like that! ;)

Maybe reconsider the title of the sequence? :DD

Just kidding :)

I think it slightly deviates of the steemstem profile... but if the distilled was on my blog, I'd definitely steal it ;)

Hehe, I know :)

I was technically blown away by the post of @gra on the use of GIS and spatial data in renewable energy. I recently watched a video of one of the first customers of Elon Musk's Tesla Solar Roof who had his whole roof covered by solar panels. The future looks great for the renewable industries and applications.

Congrats to everyone! Stay awesome! Wonderful work by all handpicked authors, the same goes for everyone else who got upvoted!

Keep up the good work @ruth-girl!

Yaaaay! Keep up the good work everyone!
-What do you mean by that, ruth-girl?
-I mean that everyone should keep up working the way they do.
-You mean we should continue all the effort we are currently putting in this project?
-Yes, I mean that everyone should maintain that high levels of quality and creativity. :P

yeah quality work speak for people who are committed to it, so I agree with you @ruth-girl.

Hahahahahahah LMFAO~!!!!!

fantastic work steemSTEM team !
and love the new steemSTEM image :)

Thank you @mcfarhat!!

Credits to @elvisxx71 for the new logo! :)

Beautiful compilation. To whom much is given, much is expected. Thus far this persons have really contributed immensely to the growth of #steemstem with good and quality content.

Do you want to see your name in the list?

Then intensify effort, make research come out with excellent science content, then your name will be in the list.

Well-done guys!
