Posted: 25 Apr 2019 04:00 AM PDT Hi Reddit! As a researcher and genetic counselor at Johns Hopkins Medicine, I'm part of a team that recently helped create a computer program that predicts who is at risk of sudden death in people with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC). This tool will help us figure out who would benefit most from an implanted device that shocks the heart to get it back into rhythm. And, it could prevent 20 percent of patients with the disease from receiving unnecessary - and potentially risky - surgery to place a device that is not needed. Often, people don't find out that they have ARVC until they experience a near fatal or fatal cardiac event. You may even have a family member who suddenly died because of this, which means someone else in your family - maybe even you - could have it. I'll see everyone at noon Eastern (16 UT), ask me anything! [link] [comments] |

The ten black hole merger events detected by LIGO over the past five years seems like a lot. Is it? Posted: 24 Apr 2019 08:23 AM PDT LIGO has been running for five years, or about one three billionth the age of our universe. I'm amazed that it has already detected ten black hole mergers. Can we interpret this as: 1) there are a LOT of black holes in the universe. 2) the universe is SO huge and mind-boggingly expansive that even rare events are common. 3) there are black hole clusters. or 4) we are seeing mergers from a time when black holes were more common.

Posted: 24 Apr 2019 03:14 PM PDT Title says it, I'm curious as to whether listening to a pair of wireless headphones at a certain volume would change the battery life of the headphones and if so how much approximately? [link] [comments] |
How exactly does carbon monoxide work on a molecular level? Posted: 24 Apr 2019 03:40 PM PDT From what I know, oxygen needs two electrons to complete its valence shell - but carbon needs four. How would carbon monoxide be stable if the carbon still needs two valence electrons? [link] [comments] |
Do indoor plants (succulents, etc.) improve air quality? Posted: 24 Apr 2019 12:32 PM PDT I know they have psychological benefits, but information on whether they provide actual air quality benefits is sparse and inconclusive. [link] [comments] |
Do other planets suffer from less or more earthquakes compared with earth? Posted: 24 Apr 2019 02:29 PM PDT Recently I saw a news article saying it was registered the first earthquake on mars, and that made me wonder, are there more earthquakes in other planets compared with earth?

Why doesn't the sun explode at all once? Posted: 24 Apr 2019 03:43 PM PDT If the sun is mainly hydrogen and helium and it's burning why does it burn over billions of years? Does it have to do with atmospheric difference? If we ignited a bunch of gas in our atmosphere wouldn't it explode rapidly? [link] [comments] |

Why can't you pull the car door handle while unlocking it? Posted: 24 Apr 2019 02:56 PM PDT Title is pretty self explanatory, but why can't/doesn't the door unlock if someone is pulling the handle while you press the button, on the keys for example? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 24 Apr 2019 07:22 AM PDT Hello r/askscience, I recently learned about fractals and the menger sponge. As the number of interations approach infinity, the volume approches 0 and the surface area infinite. Is there another fractal, which behaves the opposite way (0 surface area, infinite volume)? Thanks for your answers [link] [comments] |
