Welcome to the 81^th issue of SteemSTEM Distilled, a curation effort by the members of the @steemstem team.

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 several hundreds of STEM-related posts per week. We hence support about 100 of these posts, and present in this distilled our top 6 handpicked choices for the last week.

Monday - Wednesday

Debunking Further Bullshits About Evolution – And Observing The Trail Of Human Evolution

This week begins with @samminator and an "evolutionary" post! Human evolution and myths debunked is what we're reading here and we really really like it!

The discussion about mathematical culture (Cracow 1989)

@romualdd and Maths are coming up next! Another great piece is here to teach us about the culture of one of the most fascinating languages in the world, this of mathematics!

Wednesday - Friday

A new species of crocodile has been described for the first time in over 80 years!

You know @valth and his love for environment and animal posts! This time we got one of his pieces where he introduces us to a relatively new crocodile species. Don't miss checking it out!

Sex Drive: Fantasy Sex Is Where To Find Id

@alexander.alexis and his "kinky" series earns a place in this week's picks. In this episode it's the imaginary world of sex we're looking at and we do believe you're gonna love his "fantastic" post!

Saturday - Sunday

A: What is the physical meaning of Maxwell's equations?

Did you think we'd have no physics in this issue? Of course not! @irelandscape gives an excellent and detailed explanation of the Maxwell's equations! Read on for more!

How to live healthy? Part 1: What are Caloric Restriction Mimetics (CRM)?

And our week ends with @chappertron and a detailed post on health and nutrition. Our key-words here are "caloric restriction mimetics (or CRM)". You definitely should check this piece out!

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 6 posts a week out of more than 150-200. 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.
