Arm will be using AWS for its cloud use
AWS announced on Dec. 11 that the semiconductor and software design company Arm will be using AWS to migrate the majority of electronic design automation (EDA) workloads to AWS through the use of the AWS Graviton2-based instances (powered by Arm Neoverse cores).
According to a press release, Arm ultimately plans to reduce its global datacentre footprint by at least 45 per cent and its on-premises compute by 80 per cent as it completes its migration to AWS. Arm says it uses Amazon elastic compute cloud (Amazon EC2) to streamline its costs and timelines by optimizing EDA workflows across the various specialized Amazon EC2 instance types. In addition, Arm uses services from AWS partner Databricks to develop and run machine learning applications in the cloud.
Siemens Smart Infrastructure selects AWS as its preferred cloud provider for SAP environments
Siemens Smart Infrastructure, a business of the Siemens AG group focusing on energy distribution and intelligent buildings, is moving its SAP infrastructure to AWS, thereby becoming the first company within Siemens AG to move production-scale, business-critical SAP environments to the cloud.
As part of this collaboration, Siemens Smart Infrastructure will migrate over 20 enterprise resource planning (ERP) and supply chain management (SCM) systems, based on SAP HANA, to AWS before the end of 2021. These systems support business-critical processes in areas such as manufacturing, operations, and sales across different business units of the company including Building Products, Electrical Products, Digital Grid, and Distribution Systems.
Zoom elects AWS
Zoom Video Communications has selected AWS as its preferred cloud provider in a multi-year agreement that extends the longstanding relationship between the two companies. AWS noted in the announcement that Zoom will continue to use AWS's global infrastructure and services – including capabilities in compute, storage, content distribution, and security, which will allow Zoom to extend its data centres securely.
In addition, AWS and Zoom are collaborating to develop new solutions for Zoom's enterprise users, using AWS to integrate Zoom services with Amazon devices and capabilities in an attempt to make it easier for organizations to run hybrid office and remote work models.
Zoom has been using AWS since 2011. Over the past year, Zoom has grown on AWS to accommodate an increase from 10 million daily meeting participants in December 2019 to more than 300 million a day regularly since April 2020. AWS says since February, it's added tens of thousands of Amazon elastic cloud compute (EC2) instances (virtual servers) to Zoom's overall capacity, even adding thousands of instances in a day as usage demanded.
BMW teams up with AWS
AWS and the BMW Group have teamed up to jointly develop cloud-enabled solutions and upskill up to 5,000 BMW Group-affiliated software engineers in the latest AWS technologies. These cloud-enabled solutions are being jointly developed by the two companies with the goal to increase efficiency, performance, and sustainability across every aspect of the automotive life cycle, from vehicle design to after-sales services.
The two companies will also collaborate on innovative products and solutions to improve operational performance and increase transparency in the supply chain, says AWS. BMW's PartChain Platform uses AWS services such as Amazon elastic Kubernetes service (Amazon EKS) in conjunction with open-source blockchain management tools to enhance the traceability of automotive parts and raw materials throughout the automotive industry's highly complex global supply chain. In addition, BMW is using Amazon SageMaker – AWS's service for building, training, and deploying machine learning models in the cloud and on the edge – to examine data from vehicle subsystems, using machine learning to predict the performance of parts, recommend maintenance, and inform parts suppliers of potential issues with their manufacturing processes to improve quality.
Thomson Reuters driving large-scale migration to cloud
Thomson Reuters has completed a large scale migration to AWS as part of its transformation strategy and ongoing move to the cloud. The company has migrated hundreds of revenue-generating applications and thousands of servers to AWS.
This partnership is an expansion of the long-standing relationship of Thomson Reuters with AWS. In 2018, Thomson Reuters partnered with AWS Professional Services, AWS Managed Services, and AWS Certified third-party experts from multiple consulting partners to move hundreds of legacy applications from across their global business units to the cloud and into production quickly.
In addition, Thomson Reuters has developed an internal platform to apply machine learning at scale using Amazon SageMaker to help developers and data scientists quickly gain new insights from real-time and historical data in a fully managed and secure environment. AWS says the platform saves developers and data scientists countless hours of coding by providing all of the components used for machine learning in a single toolset so models get to production faster with much less effort and at a lower cost, enabling Thomson Reuters to deliver new, intelligent solutions for their customers.
Are you not entertained? ViacomCBS expands strategic agreement with AWS
Global media and entertainment company ViacomCBS picked AWS as its preferred broadcast cloud provider to facilitate one of the largest digital transformations in the media and entertainment industry.
The portfolio of ViacomCBS includes CBS, Showtime Networks, Paramount Pictures, Nickelodeon, MTV, Comedy Central, BET, CBS All Access, Pluto TV and Simon & Schuster, among others. The company delivers the largest share of the U.S. television audience and boasts one of the industry's most important and extensive libraries of TV and film titles. The company also provides capabilities in production, distribution and advertising solutions for partners on five continents.
The company says it also plans to use AWS Elemental media services as well as AWS machine learning technologies, including Amazon Rekognition (AWS's service that adds intelligent image and video analysis to applications) and Amazon SageMaker (AWS's service for building, training, and deploying machine learning models), to scale video processing resources, automate workflows, and predict audience preferences.
Metro Goldwyn Mayer modernizes its media supply chain
AWS recently announced a multi-year partnership with Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM) to modernize its core media supply chain and enterprise-wide media distribution platform. The company is in the process of migrating its content library and SAP workloads to AWS in an attempt to power its media supply chain as well as support its content rights and distribution processes. Running on AWS, MGM will distribute content across multiple platforms quickly and at scale.
MGM's new cloud-based media supply chain will use AWS compute, serverless, storage, machine learning, and media services to modernize its infrastructure. The company will build a data lake on AWS using Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) that, AWS says, will provide up-to-date content rights and ownership information and connect to a microservices architecture that will simplify and automate workflows and processes throughout MGM's complex media supply chain.
MGM will be using AWS Media Services, including AWS Elemental MediaConvert, to automate the processes for preparing and delivering MGM's library of feature film and premium television content, optimizing video for viewing on any screen.

Q: Why even use Strings in hashes if symbols exist Why would I use a string if using a symbol 1) saves memory 2) has a better access time
I saw code in which sometimes Strings are used and sometimes symbols. Why would you go for Strings having all the advantages with symbols?
OK, your access keys often won't be strings so you would always type the casting. But then, why does the casting not happen implicitly?

A:
I saw code in which sometimes Strings are used and sometimes symbols. Why would you go for Strings having all the advantages with symbols?

Before Symbol GC was added in Ruby 2.2, generating a symbol at runtime would cause a memory leak for long running applications. Using strings was a way to circumvent this memory issue and get gc, and it lingers around the ruby ecosystem. With frozen string support, at some point symbols and strings will be identical.

OK, your access keys often won't be strings so you would always type the casting. But then, why does the casting not happen implicitly?

A hash maps an object to an object. This:
{"a"=>1, :a=>1}

is a valid hash.
If you want to cast implicitly you could use HashWithIndifferentAccess  from ActiveSupport.

A: There are different tradeoffs,

*

*Symbols are best used for a bounded set of keys that are ideally limited to values found in the source code.

*String are best used for an unbounded set of keys that are taken from user input or other external sources, like for when processing unstructured JSON data.

Why?
Before Ruby 2.2 symbols are not garbage collected and dealing with an unbounded set of keys obviously leads to a memory leak. But even with garage collection there is still a significant cost of having to "intern" all string input to turn them into symbols. And it can thus be smartest to just use string keys if your code consumes strings from text files or the web anyway.

You may have heard about @THISISVT, the new Twitter account which will be operated by a different Vermont citizen each week. It was created by the state Department of Tourism in the vein of @Sweden and @NewZealand, but hopefully without the awkward moments. Picking a citizen to temporarily act as the voice of a polity is officially trending.
@THISISVT's goal of representing Vermont through the real voices of Vermonters is a noble one. But you know what's more fun? Fake voices. More specifically, the jokey Twitter accounts that come about through anthropomorphizing the creatures and machines that populate our state. They're a critical part of the Twitter ecosystem, making sure that it can't be taken too seriously in the midst of all the self-promotion and buzzwords. Sure, they're probably a waste of time — but at least they're fun! (Usually.)
Here's a brief guide to the parody accounts that populate our local Twittersphere. Give 'em a follow if you don't already.
(Note: This list does not include Twitter accounts purporting to belong to pets or newborns. Parents, please don't pretend to be your child on social media.)

Burlington State Rep. and Former Mayoral Candidate Jason Lorber Will Not Seek Reelection
Posted by Paul Heintz on June 08, 2012 at 11:31 AM in 2012 Burlington Mayor's Race, Burlington, Election 2012, News, Politics, Vermont | Permalink
*UPDATED*
Four-term Burlington state representative and former mayoral candidate Jason Lorber will not seek reelection to the Vermont House, he announced Friday morning in an e-mail to supporters.
First elected to the legislature in 2004, Lorber was one of four Democrats to seek his party's nomination for mayor last fall, saying he would serve as "chief marketing officer" for the city. At the November Democratic caucus, Lorber won just 106 of 1309 votes on the first ballot and promptly withdrew from the race.
In his announcement, the consultant and stand-up comedian said he was proud of his work reforming the criminal justice system, supporting "farm-to-plate" initiatives and voting to legalize gay marriage. Lorber is one of just a handful of openly gay legislators in Vermont.

14 Questions for Miro Weinberger Before He's Sworn in as Burlington's Next Mayor
Posted by Seven Days on April 02, 2012 at 09:00 AM in 2012 Burlington Mayor's Race, Burlington, News, Politics, Vermont | Permalink
Tonight at Nectar's is "Metal Monday," where for $5 you can hear the skull-splitting sounds of Boatman's Lament, Skrogg and Brave the Vertigo.
The opening act? On the big screen, Miro Weinberger's inauguration as Burlington's 38th mayor.
Weinberger will be sworn in as the Queen City's new boss — the first Democrat to occupy the corner office since 1981 — at 7 p.m. in city hall. The mayor-elect's peeps have reserved Nectar's for any overflow crowd, where the event will be live-streamed by Channel 17.
Even before it's official, Weinberger is putting his team together. On Sunday, he named Paul Sisson, a Burlington financial adviser and CPA who worked for KPMG, as interim chief administrative officer — one of the most powerful posts in city hall. The temporary appointment extends through June 30.
Seven Days contributor Kevin J. Kelley caught up with the mayor-elect last week at Maglianero Cafe on Maple Street, where Weinberger came dressed in a black suit jacket, white shirt and no tie. The talk ranged from Burlington's budget problems to Weinberger's feelings on a Church Street smoking ban. The mayor-elect also told Seven Days he and his wife have applied to send their daughter to first grade next fall at a Burlington public school — in the Old North End. She is currently in kindergarten at a private school in Williston
SEVEN DAYS: You're bound to have something of a political honeymoon when you take office. Is there a 90-day or 100-day window for you to take major actions that will be harder to take later on?
MIRO WEINBERGER: Yes, June 30 is a significant date. We need to pass a balanced budget by then.
The 90-day window also relates to what I've said about making a decision on the Moran Plant by then. It's gone on long enough. We need to decide what to do there. The financial consequences to the city will be significant no matter which way I go on Moran.
There's already been substantial amounts of time and money invested in the plan. That's something we need to consider. And I can say that other than the budget, I've spent more time on Moran than any issue. It's a highly complex situation and it's going to be an important decision for the new administration.

In Race's Final Days, Burlington Mayoral Candidates Poured on the Cash
Posted by Paul Heintz on March 16, 2012 at 08:28 PM in 2012 Burlington Mayor's Race, Burlington, News, Politics | Permalink
In the closing days of the most expensive mayor's race in Burlington's history, two of the candidates — and one political party — continued to pour cash into their campaigns.
According to filings due Friday, Democrat Miro Weinberger, who won by 20 percent, raised $16,469 and spent $25,050 in the last week and a half of the race. The Vermont Democratic Party spent another $8,631 on his behalf during that period.
In total, Weinberger and his party raised $143,940 and spent $140,118 on the campaign, dwarfing all previous records. Close to $50,000 of that was spent on a heated four-way race for the Democratic nomination last fall.
Republican Kurt Wright also continued to raise and spend in the closing days of the race. He took in $11,694 and spent $18,074 in the same period. In total, he raised $60,358 and spent $58,261 on the campaign. Wright received no help from the state GOP and ran uncontested for his party's nomination.
Independent Wanda Hines raised and spent just $2,930. Though she came in a distant third, Hines certainly got the best bang for her buck. She spent just $5.80 per vote, while Wright spent $15.55 and Weinberger spent $24.15 per vote.
Most voters, one might imagine, would have preferred a check in the mail.
Given that candidates don't have to report what they raised or spent in the campaign's final days until after voters head to the polls, post-election filings tend to include a few goodies. This batch is no exception.

Mayor-Elect Weinberger Taps Transition Team
With just two and a half weeks until he takes office, Mayor-elect Miro Weinberger rolled out his transition team Thursday morning at a city hall press conference.
Weinberger said the group — a mix of elected officials, campaign staffers and behind-the-scenes political types — would be "tasked with the important job of converting this optimism and goodwill and desire for change into a successful start in the new administration."
Leading a team charged with conducting a "top-to-bottom review of city departments," vetting personnel appointments and writing next year's budget are Paul Sisson, a retired KPMG managing partner, and Andrew Savage, a former legislative director and deputy chief-of-staff for Congressman Peter Welch.
While Weinberger was mostly mum about specific city hall appointments, he indicated that Sisson is one of three contenders for the chief administrative officer position, a key post that is now vacant. Weinberger said that while the mayor has authority to hire roughly 20 positions, "The actual number of appointments in the beginning of the administration will be well less than that."

This story was reported by Paul Heintz, Kevin J. Kelley and Andy Bromage. Graphics by Tyler Machado.
Riding his outsider image to a decisive victory, Miro Weinberger took Burlington City Hall by a wide margin Tuesday night, becoming the first Democrat to hold the mayor's office in 31 years.
Now it's time for Burlington to learn how to pronounce his name.
It's "muh-ROH," for the record.
In an election many political observers expected to come down to the wire, Weinberger stormed the city, taking close to 58 percent of the vote to Republican Kurt Wright's 37 percent and independent Wanda Hines' five percent. The Democrat heavily outperformed his opponents in the city's South End and Old North End, and he kept the score close in Wright's home territory in the more conservative New North End.
"Burlington voters have spoken. They have spoken loud, and they've spoken clear. And this city is ready for a fresh start," Weinberger told a packed house at his campaign's victory party at Nectar's. "That fresh start begins tonight."
Surrounded by his wife, daughter and parents, Weinberger told an enthusiastic crowd, "What this campaign was fueled by from the start was you and your grassroots efforts."
He said the campaign's 350 volunteers made 45,000 phone calls since the start of January, including 8500 get-out-the-vote calls today alone. Not mentioned was his massive fundraising advantage. Weinberger outspent Wright by more than two-to-one, raising more money — $118,000 since he joined the race in September — than the entire 2009 mayoral field combined.
The campaign mailed 28,000 pieces of campaign literature.
"It's only with this type of support that a political outsider with a funny name that no one knew how to pronounce could end up right here tonight," Weinberger said.

Burlington Mayoral Candidates Make Final Push for Votes
Posted by Paul Heintz on March 05, 2012 at 07:42 PM in 2012 Burlington Mayor's Race, Burlington, News, Vermont | Permalink
A day before Burlington voters pick their next mayor, the candidates vying to take City Hall spent Monday scouring the city for a few more votes in a final frenzy of campaigning.
Republican mayoral candidate Kurt Wright and his Democratic opponent, Miro Weinberger, both spent the afternoon knocking on doors and waving signs in the New North End, traditionally a treasure trove of votes in Burlington elections.
"We feel good. A ton of energy," Weinberger said as he canvassed Loaldo Drive alongside spokesman Mike Kanarick.
As if on cue, a middle-aged man driving a blue Ford Explorer pulled up to Weinberger and, pointing to his house a few doors down the street, said the candidate should feel free to put up a sign or two.
"We're campaigning all over the city, but it feels very productive to be up here," Weinberger said after the man drove away. "We're making gains. People are open-minded about the race up here, even though it's Kurt's backyard."

In Health Care Vote, Wright Sides With Dems
Posted by Paul Heintz on February 24, 2012 at 01:09 PM in 2012 Burlington Mayor's Race, Burlington, Health Care, News, Politics | Permalink
As we reported earlier this week, Kurt Wright has styled his campaign for mayor of Burlington as a post-partisan affair, despite a reliably Republican record representing the New North End in Montpelier.
Last night, Wright's post-partisan cred was put to the test as the Vermont House voted almost entirely along party lines in a preliminary vote to establish a state-run health insurance exchange.
I say 'almost entirely' because there was one Republican who bucked his party and voted with the Democrats: Kurt Wright.
"I think, like most people do think, the system that we have does have to be reformed. We do have a broken system that's very expensive for employers and employees," Wright explained Friday. "I think, overall, the bill helps a lot of middle and lower income people get insurance and, if they have insurance, get better insurance."
Wright's Republican colleagues disagreed. They argued that the Democrat-designed exchange — an online marketplace for health insurance plans — would limit consumers' and small business' ability to choose affordable plans outside of the system.
To be fair, Wright voted against a key element of the plan before he voted for it.
An amendment offered by Rep. Mark Higley (R-Lowell) would have allowed businesses to opt out of the exchange. Wright voted in favor of the Republican amendment, which failed by a vote of 57 to 80.
"To me what [the Higley amendment] did was it spoke to concerns a lot of small business people had. I think it was worth giving them some level of comfort with this," Wright said. "I thought that should start out being an optional choice. Even without that amendment passing, I thought [the overall bill] was a net plus."
"Will Wright's vote help or hurt his chances in March? Why?"Post your answer below
Wright missed a vote on an earlier amendment offered by Rep. Oliver Olsen (R-Jamaica) that would have allowed businesses to opt out of the exchange if premiums became too expensive. Wright missed the vote because he was participating in a mayoral forum on the arts at the Flynn Space in Burlington and didn't expect votes at that time. He said he would have to review the language of the amendment before taking a position on it. The amendment failed by a vote of 45-88.
Wright also bucked his party yesterday by voting against an amendment that would move forward the date by which Gov. Peter Shumlin's administration would have to outline how it would finance the exchange and a proposed single-payer health care system. That amendment, which failed by a vote of 49 to 86, has become a political football in Shumlin's re-election fight, with Republicans arguing the decision should be made before the November election.
Wright said, "Republicans wanted more information and they wanted it before the election. My understanding is there will not be accurate information before the election. It's not going to be timely. It's just a matter of that. Would I like it to be? Sure."
Last year Wright voted against the creation of a panel charged with designing a single-payer health care system in Vermont.
Vermont Democratic Party chairman Jake Perkinson sees political motives in yesterday's votes.
"The timing is interesting," Perkinson said. "I'm glad Kurt voted for this much-needed health care legislation, but it is 11 days before the election and everyone in Burlington is watching. I don't think he really could have voted another way and explained it to the voters."
Wright acknowledges the political scrutiny he faces this close to the election.
"The interesting thing here is if I voted against this, people would be saying it was a Republican vote. If I voted the other way, they say he's voting for political expediency," he said. "So you can't win."

Teenager gets draw to e-cigarettes for 'Cool' and 'Fun' factors | Film Dhamaka.in
E-cigarettes are far from the help of teenagers to quit smoking, they may initiate more teenagers into getting addicted to nicotine since the adolescents feel they are 'cool', 'fun', and 'something new' for experimentation according to a new research.
"Though e-cigarettes are mostly used as a device for the smoking cessation among adults, the studies revealed that most studies gets motivated to the factors like fun/cool/something new factors of e-cigarettes," shared Michael Khoury, one of the researchers who performed a research on the pediatric cardiology at a Sick Children hospital in Toronto.
E-cigarettes which are designed to give a look alike of cigarettes are devices powered by battery which vaporises the liquid which mostly contains nicotine.
Previous studies disclosed that there is increasing rate in the e-cigarettes usage in adolescents by the Canada and US exposure to Tobacco.
E-Cigarette is now so common among teenagers than a Cigarette, according to a research conducted in Canada.
The research aimed to understand the frequency, motivation and many other criteria which is usage of e-cigarettes by teenagers who are school students and the research screen the risk factors of cardiac.
The study was carried out on above 2000 students of age 14-15 who are studying class nine in a Canada school located in Ontario, Niagara region.
Out of 2,367 teenagers who gave a response in the smoking question answered at least one question in the survey, almost 70% were aware about the e-cigarettes and at around 10% of them have used them.
The researchers stated the cessation of smoking does not look like a driver of usage of e-cigarettes.

O sistema de Tratamento Mecânico Biológico (TMB) é um método de tratamento de resíduos que combina processos de triagem com tratamento biológico, tais como compostagem ou digestão anaeróbica. As instalações de TMB são projetadas para processar diversos tipos de resíduos domésticos, assim como resíduos comerciais e industriais.

O Processo
Os termos "Tratamento Mecânico Biológico" ou "Pre-tratamento Mecânico Biológico" referem-se a um grupo de sistemas de tratamento de resíduos sólidos. Estes sistemas permitem a recuperação de materiais contidos no interior e à estabilização de componentes de materiais biodegradáveis.

Os componentes de triagem das instalações lembram uma indústria de recuperação de materiais. Este componente é configurado tanto para recuperação de elementos individuais dos resíduos ou produção de resíduos derivados que podem ser utilizados para geração de energia.

Os componentes que podem ser recuperados são:
 Metais
 Plasticos
 Vidros

Terminologia
TMB às vezes também é chamado de TBM – Tratamento Biológico Mecânico – no entanto isto se refere simplesmente à ordem de processamento, ou seja, a fase biológica do tratamento precede a triagem mecânica. TMB não deve ser confundido com TMT - Tratamento Mecânico Térmico – que não inclui qualquer tipo de degradação biológica ou estabilização.

Triagem Mecânica
O elemento mecânico é geralmente uma fase de triagem mecânica automática. Esta fase remove elementos recicláveis de uma variedade de resíduos (como mateais, plásticos, vidros e papel) ou os processa. Isto tipicamente envolve tipos de fábricas com transposrtadores, imãs industriais, separadores para materiais não-ferrosos, granuladores, retalhadores e outros sistemas feitos à medida, ou a triagem é feita à mão. O elemento mecânico tem uma série de semelhanças com instalações de recuperação de materiais (IRM).

Alguns sistemas integram uma IRM molhada para recuperar e lavar os elementos recicláveis dos resíduos de forma que possam ser encaminhados para reciclagem. O TMB pode alternativamente processar os resíduos para produzir um combustível altamente calorífico, que é chamado de Combustível Derivado de Resíduos (CDR). O CDR pode ser utilizado em fornos de cimento ou indústrias de energia e é geralmente produzido a partir de plásticos e resíduos orgânicos biodegradáveis. Sistemas que são configurados para produzir CDR incluem os processos Herhof e Ecodeco. É um erro comum pensar que todos os processos TMB produzem CDR. Este não é o caso e depende estritamente da configuração do sistema e da adequação do mercado local para os produtos/saídas do TMB.

Processamento Biológico
O elemento biológico se refere a:
 Digestão anaeróbica
 Compostagem
 Biosecagem

A digestão anaeróbica decompõe os componentes biodegradáveis dos resíduos para produzir biogás e adubo. O biogás pode ser utilizado para gerar eletricidade e calor.

Biológico pode se referir a uma fase de compostagem. Aqui o componente orgânico é tratado com microorganismos aeróbicos. Eles decompõem os resíduos em dióxido de carbono e compostagem. Não existe qualquer energia verde produzida pelos sistemas que empregam apenas tratamento de compostagem para os resíduos biodegradáveis.

No caso da biosecagem, o material residual sofre um período de rápido aquecimento através da ação de microorganismos aeróbicos. Durante esta fase de compostagem parcial o calor gerado pelos microorganismos resulta em uma rápida secagem dos resíduos. Estes sistemas são muitas vezes configurados para produzir CDR, resultando um material seco e leve, mais vantajoso para posterior combustão em transportes.

Alguns sistemas incorporam tanto a digestão anaeróbica quanto a compostagem. Isto pode assumir a forma de uma fase de digestão anaeróbica completa, seguida pela maturação (compostagem) do material sólido resultante.

Alternativamente, uma fase de digestão anaeróbica parcial pode ser induzida a água que é percolada através de resíduos de matéria-prima, dissolvendo os açúcares existentes, com o material restante sendo enviado para uma leira de compostagem.

Processando os resíduos biodegradáveis através de digestão anaeróbica ou de compostagem, as tecnologias de TMB contribuem para a redução de gases responsáveis pelo aquecimento global.

Resíduos utilizáveis para este sistema:

 Resíduo sólido municipal
 Lodos

Produtos deste sistema:

 Materiais recicláveis como metais, papel, plásticos, vidros, etc.
 Fertilizantes orgânicos (coleta separada de resíduos orgânicos)
 Materiais inutilizáveis preparados para disposição final inofensiva (compactação > 1.3 t/m³)
 Créditos de carbono – receitas suplementares
 Fração altamente calorífica (Combustível Derivado de Resíduos – CDR) – receitas suplementares

Vantagens adicionais:

 O resíduo final depositado é inerte
 Redução do volume do resíduo depositado pelo menos na metade (densidade > 1.3 t/m³), deste modo o tempo de vida do aterro é pelo menos duas vezes maior que o usual.
 Utilização dos lixiviados no processo
 Não atrai a presença de animais como pássaros, cachorros, roedores, ratos ao local.
 Como não há biogás, não necessita de recursos adicionais para sua coleta e combustão
 Não é necessária cobertura diária
 Tempo de tratamento de 3 a 5 anos

Sugestões de aplicação
O sistema de TMB pode formar uma parte integral da infra-estrutura de tratamento de resíduos de uma região. Estes sistemas são tipicamente integrados com os esquemas de coleta periféricos. No caso da produção de Combustível Derivado de Resíduos como um sub-produto torna-se necessária a instalação de combustão.

Alternativamente as soluções de TMB podem diminuir a necessidade de separação inicial e coleta periférica de elementos recicláveis do resíduo. Isto dá às autoridades e conselhos locais a capacidade de reduzir o uso de veículos de coleta nas ruas e manter altas taxas de reciclagem dos resíduos.

Opinião dos grupos ambientais
A organização "Friends of the Earth" sugere que a maneira mais adequada de se tratar com resíduos é primeiro remover os elementos recicláveis (como metais, plásticos e papel). A pequena quantidade de resíduo restante deveria ir para compostagem ou ser digerida anaerobicamente, e o restante deveria ser eliminado por incineração ou – como opção menos favorável – disposta em aterros. As estruturas de TMB que estão de acordo com estas declarações poderiam, assim, desempenhar um papel crescente na gestão ambiental dos mais variados resíduos.

Q: An element with a .scale class name must have been mouse over. Only the front part works properly. What's the problem? I worked to increase the scale when hovering over an element with scale class.
Only the li at the beginning works properly, I'm curious as to why.

Neuroessentialism is the position that, for all intents and purposes, we are our brains (Roskies, 2002). It is not so much that we are not also our genes, our bodies, members of social groups, and so on, but rather that when we conceive of ourselves, when we think of who we are as beings interacting in the world, the we that we think of primarily resides in our brains. The goals of this chapter are to review the scientific advances and cultural trends that have resulted in the rise of neuroessentialism, to provide a portrait of the varieties of neuroessentialist thought that draws on our current understanding of brain function, and then to use these insights to see how neuroessentialist thinking might alter the mores of society. I will argue that there are domains of modern life in which neuroessentialist thinking supports the development of policies that can be viewed as progressive and prosocial, supporting the objective of aligning innovations in the neurosciences with societal and individual values. At the same time, I shall highlight instances in which neuroessentialist thinking may have nuanced but important unintended consequences, and that proponents of this worldview should thoroughly consider the ramifications of neuroessentialist thought becoming a cultural meme.
