  1. In case anyone's keeping score, the idea that JFETs have hugely variable properties and that this problem cannot be - or at least has not been - fixed with different design or manufacturing practices, this batch showed it pretty clearly to me.

    20 J113s, minus 1 fake, equals 19 devices. I measured the Vgs / pinch-off voltage and the Id / drain current in my test rig. The result?

    6 very distinct bins with between 2 and 6 devices in each. Vgs overall varied from (-) 1.30 V to 2.11 V (variance is 38% of the larger value, or 62% of the smaller...), and Id from 5.7 mA to 12.8 mA, a spread of 125% (!) of the smaller value.

    No wonder so many JFET circuits just don't work if you don't hand-match the devices.

  7. [Correspondence] Virological #characteristics of the #SARS-CoV-2 #KP311 #variant thelancet.com/journals/laninf/

    SARS-CoV-2 #JN1 variant (#BA28611), arising from BA.2.86.1 with spike protein (S) substitution S:L455S, outcompeted previously predominant #XBB lineages by beginning of 2024. Subsequently, JN.1 subvariants including #KP2 (JN.1.11.1.2) & #KP3 (JN.1.11.1.3), which acquired additional S substitutions (eg, S:R346T, S:F456L, and S:Q493E) have emerged concurrently (appendix pp 19–20).2

    KP.3.1.1 exhibited a higher Re, higher pseudovirus infectivity, & higher neutralization #evasion than KP.3. These results align with our recent report that #JN1 subvariants with S:S31del (eg KP.2.3 & LB.1) exhibited enhanced Re and immune evasion compared to other JN.1 subvariants without S:S31del (eg JN.1, KP.2, & KP.3), highlighting evolutionary significance of S:S31del in JN.1 lineages.

    Our research once again demonstrates the significant role of wild and domesticated #waterfowl in the #reassortment process of avian influenza virus, enriching the research on the H4 subtype of AIV, and emphasizing the importance of proactive #monitoring the #environment related to avian influenza virus.

    The phrases 'identify' or 'identify as' wrongly imply that a deliberate choice was made by LGBTQ people to become LGBTQ.

    #SexualOrientation and our #Gender (#GenderIdentity) are #innate #characteristics, not #choices.

    It's time to move past this #HarmfulLanguage!

    We are who we say we are, and deserve to be #respected and #affirmed for having the #courage to be our #TrueSelves."
