SteemSTEM Distilled #73

SteemSTEM aims to make Steem a better place for STEM, a task which we believe crucial for the long-term development of the blockchain. Our goals consist in invigorating and inspiring the minds of a community of STEM aficionados on Steem, targeting on the long-term the upgrade of SteemSTEM as a real platform for science communication. In the meantime, this goes through the support of quality, interesting and cutting-edge STEM content. For more details, a recent update on the SteemSTEM project is available here. If you want to discuss with us, please do not hesitate to join the steemSTEM discord server.
In order to support the best STEM content on Steem, our team scours the blockchain and read more than a couple of thousands of STEM-related posts per week. We hence support about 200 of these posts, and present in this distilled our top 8 handpicked choices for the last Thursday-Sunday period. ##
Monday - Wednesday

### Tobacco: The Plant and the Smoker
An addictive habit is being discussed in this first post of our new week, that of smoking. @masterwriter has written a great piece on tobacco. From the plant and process of making cigarettes to the reasons people take up smoking and the effects on a smoker’s health, you will surely learn a lot by reading this post!
### Super Cool Science S#!t #24 - The Destroyer of Worlds
You’ve definitely seen a bunch of posts on black holes around here, but @thatsweeneyguy’s is different. Enjoyable and well-written, it promises to teach you in a fun way. Don’t miss reading this one!

Wednesday - Friday

### The Quantum Theory: Can Quantum technologies revolutionize the 21st Century and ultimately change our lives?
An extended and thorough post by @emperorhassy on quantum technology and how it can change our lives! Don’t worry, it’s in comprehensible English, you don’t need to be an expert to appreciate the post’s value!
### Biography of Bernhard Riemann (1826 — 1866)
And moving on next, we have a beautiful post on the life of a great scientist. @romualdd presents us with the story of Bernhard Riemann, an excellent mathematical mind of the 19th century.

Saturday - Sunday

### Would you love to see how I trained my small, tiny, powerful neural network?
Do neural networks intrigue you? Then this is a post you shouldn’t miss! @nikolanikola shows us how he “trained” his very own neural network. Let’s follow him and see what he accomplished!
### INTRODUCTION TO CARTOGRAPHY - ELEMENTS OF ISARITHMIC MAPPING
One of our cool engineers will close this week’s issue. @lordneroo, with his ongoing series on cartography, has published another fantastic piece! The elements of isarithmic mapping are being discussed here and if you’ve missed a few of the previous parts, you can always pay a visit to his blog to catch up with his series!

A few words about the nomination process

For some time, the editorial team behind this distilled series is made of a one-woman-team, @ruth-girl, and she chooses her favorite posts (potentially discussing with other curators and/or the management). Posts written by the SteemSTEM team are excluded from the nomination process.

Please do not be discouraged if you did not make it on this issue. We are picking up in total 14 posts a week out of more than 200. The chances are thus low ;) In the meantime, you may wish to check these guidelines for extra tips on how your writing could be more effective.

Authors upvoted by the SteemSTEM team

In the spirit of being transparent about our actions that are now supported by @utopian-io, @curie, our delegators, our trailers and our manual curator supporters, we release every week the list of authors who have caught the attention of the @steemstem curation team.
