they're calling it a reverse Vietnam

no, we should not sabotage African red meat production for climate goals. the goal of climate policy is to make life better for those people!

okay my reply to the viral "what don't people outside your field get" the west should expand animal protein production and export it. would be a huge climate and nutritional win

I’ve had to eat humble pie over the matter and my outlook has felt a lot better having done so

More fires in Nebraska, one started just across the road from a farm I rent, the entire state is tinder box folks.

very niche but yes you should just use a selection index

no kings except Luis Roberts jr

We just launched a new consumer genetic test that reports your health related to 9 PRS values. Also, by default we provide VCF access (no need to contact) support. This is sequencing based, not genotyped. Go look at our website! gencove.com

We train a new model trained on biomedical literature (PEPPER_XGB). Mix LOEUF and PEPPER to make an OMELET, which outperforms either each individual model in identifying disease genes

Can we get 10,000 RTs for this

Excited to share our new preprint on gnomAD v4! We present the full analysis of 730,947 exomes — new constraint metrics, improved LoF annotation (LOFTEE-2), LLM-based literature curation, and a unified framework for gene discovery and rare disease diagnosis. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.6...

in case anyone cares I'm in on the sabres bandwagon

Genuinely, this factbook answers like 90% of the questions I have. Its got everything from consumption/nameplate production by type, by country. To rough recipes from production of different types of fertilizer

strategic victory is ours

@followers4algernon.bsky.social I just want to say that I appreciate the wehadababyitsaboy mindset

A year on from declaring an 'energy emergency', Trump has done much to create one @opinion.bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

it's me, the only guy driving around Los Angeles with a liquid nitrogen in the tank bull semen. pretty happy about it

we gotta let Nicky out now

man war is bad

during the fall shutdown i was checking in and an oblivious woman asked a disgruntled tsa staffer how they were doing. they said "terrible" and she laughed and was like "hungover??" and they were like 'no not getting paid" median voter man

I can get a cow of any temperament outside but this would be a fun rodeo challenge

👍 Also, “breeds don’t have distinctive behavior” is also not “there is no genetic basis to behavior"! Behavior is a complex trait: influenced by hundreds of different genes and by environment, and that makes it very hard to predict (even imperfectly) using genetics. But not impossible.

but this is more " the commercial tests aren't good" not, there are no single genes with an effect on behavior and definitely not " there is no genetic basis to behavior"!

A just-published study by Elinor Karlsson, PhD, and Kathryn Lord, PhD, in @pnas.org found no evidence of behavior-associated genetic variations in dogs: direc.to/oaxf Genetic tests only revealed strong associations for traits like height & leg length. #dogs @elinork.bsky.social @broadinstitute.org

and just a note to my fellow year of horse or snake parents, you can in fact get your little a measles shot sooner than the 12 month mmr. there's an outbreak going on, consider it!

it strikes that this response by Iran has a far greater global impact on human wealth and suffering than a conventional terrorist attack but is somewhat invisible. it is completely justified in the context of self defense but if they were bombing Indonesia or somewhere instead it'd look different

RIP ishmael you would have loved this 🐋

The volume of crude production that Iraq has *already* shut-in is larger than the peak of *feared* [but never realized] Russian supply loss in early 2022 that spiked crude prices above $120 per barrel.

@volts.wtf you've covered local politics and nimpy boomers and their interactions with the energy transition. there are a lot of boomers in my life that are very involved in local politics and get all of the agit prop about batteries and solar etc etc. help!

taxation is theft, I never knew

For $1 billion a day we could add enough solar panels to double the generating capacity of the US grid in less than five years.

🔔 I’m thrilled to announce that I’m running for State Rep! We have accomplished an enormous amount of progressive change in Somerville over the past eight years, and I am fired up to bring this work to the State House. I’m so excited to start knocking doors and earning your votes. Press release 👇

Why is the city of Los Angeles stopping affordable housing during a housing crisis?

Hell of a chart, this, from @financialtimes.com. Spot the JCPOA. on.ft.com/4kSuQYO

this website should broadly realize that agentic ai has turned coding into posting

cli coding agents are great

PBS News Hour: U.S. citizens detained by immigration agents describe how they were treated. Watch the segment here www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMgC... I'm clipping transcripts of the citizens speaking in this thread 1/3

the deal is... you can do what you want and worship or say what you want and get rich... it's like "a multicultural economic zone"

My lawsuit against LACity over #MeasureHLA will be in court next week: Wed Feb 18. But it won't be the big part of my case. There are 3 things I am contesting. Next week is a smaller wonky administrative chunk: asking the judge to nix the city's HLA ordinance. labikas.wordpress.com/2025/10/22/m...

incredible strength. happy for him and his family and where they're at.

@open-circuit.bsky.social @jigarshahdc.bsky.social seems weird to talk the messaging of ai and not mention that like , elons a white supremacist who gutted the federal government? like I'm sure you've all addressed that individually but now he's a visionary again?

We live in an era where corporate greed is squeezing working people and families like mine have to stretch every dollar farther and farther. Meanwhile, the billionaire class just gets richer and richer. We’ve gotta fix this.

there is no such thing as an anti war movie example 10000

jackpot!

having a little fun searching Epstein Gmail for all my enemies but realizing I've forgotten a lot of my enemies. guess that's maturity
