I was thinking about this video I saw years ago and found it again... it has THE MOST GORGEOUS Krebs cycle (not all three, just the one, but you know, The One) I've ever seen in a film. youtu.be/Vinqph-g5QI?...

I have no idea what any of this is and I love it

- As discussed in the article, weather forecasting is a place where machine learning (“AI”) appears to have real promise. - ML-augmented weather models are not LLMs - whoever wrote batshit OMB justification about putting “climate change hysteria in AI models” clearly doesn’t realise this.

Boosting this. I see the comments going after this man, whose actual stupidity is thinking he can keep any small measure of facts and sanity in the current administration.

wow

this is lol

You go into a store to buy a 2-litre bottle of milk at the supermarket and pay $3. But the person in front of you in line paid $3.50. And the person behind you paid $2. Surveillance pricing is the practice of monitoring consumer data to charge you the most they think you will be willing to pay.

wow, that sounds extremely useful. the film looks like some 50s horror, maybe featuring Vincent Price. Dayum

🚨New paper alert🚨. PhD student Dunsin Oyetunji used X-ray absorption spectroscopy to show how organic-rich soils transform manganese minerals that control nutrient & carbon cycling. See - www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... for all the details. #chemsky #soil #chemistry #environment

TIL "rotenoids"! although isoflavons/-oids are familiar from arguments about breakfast cereals and wine. Still, plant wars are cool

Fun reading esp when you're at the "WTF is dark metabolome" stage. The term is just too cool.

“having children play with the Lego set before their own MRI scans has significantly helped decrease anxiety and increase familiarity with the procedure.” www.cnbc.com/2025/10/13/l...

Esp the words fuck all remind me of the best CCS ad I've ever seen m.youtube.com/watch?v=MSZg...

A reminder.

Something I've learned from advocating for my children and myself is that a lot of the protections of laws are based on the victims having the energy, money, and time to sue if they're not followed, which is why the law fails us again and again.

The way light reflects and refracts from water, esp. near the coast, has a lot to do with the sediment ( and other) particles suspended in them. What I didn't realize was that the waves can orient the particles, and thus how light behaves. 🧪🌊 Link: aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

My piece for @ascalaphid.com's #FeastPhone2025 ! Another art telephone where I had the pleasure of drawin' yet another giant toothy worm. Everyone go look at the full chain of all the cool art of many worms among other beasts here! ascalaphid.com/telephone/fe... These are always sooo much fun.

Plucking cranberries by hand sounds slow, labour-intensive and time-consuming compared to flooding the fields, shaking the plants with a machine, and skimming them off the top. nos.nl/artikel/2587...

wow what a cool thread. TIL "clock proteins"

Just saw halothane... damn looks scary

I'm sorry, I've seen plenty of Case tractors in my life but jesus

I was let go from my phd lab in a way that looked a lot like being fired, but I couldn't take advantage of employment-related antidiscrimination laws because my research was considered a class. Student antidiscrimination policies were not equipped to handle it so my advisor was free to discriminate.

Downloaded #6, and the baby and I grooved to YoYo Ma doing Bach with coldhead squeaks... pretty cool!

As a person here on a visa, there are clear signs that my rights won’t be honored (or don’t have rights for that matter), so if you are going to the protest tomorrow, be loud and clear on my behalf. It’s so important that citizens practice their rights and speak truth to power. 🙏

Immensely frustrating when some d00d posts a worthy rant but it's about an image with zero alt text— *AND* you can't reply, to ask the guy to do what he shoukd have done— *AND* you can't quote the post to add alt text yourself. some folks don't understand how to Social Media, smdh

ooh, OA!

"CONTINUALLY PRESENT" we gotta repeat what endemic means for all those people (journalists, coughcough) in the back writing about (big example) covid as if it means "most people have immunity" or "mild" grinds my teeth to nubs

Nice thread, because of the work going through all this. I love breakdowns like this.

omg who is this beauty

Went on another "applying for PhDs and/or research positions" spree. Knocked out 13 applications in <3 hours...I think the grand total is up to ~60 total applications since July. BTW, if anyone is looking for a neuroimaging analyst, let me know!! Here's some lightning from earlier today

I used to be highly sceptical of the Francevillian material. Then I dropped a bit of Proterozoic shale and found some weird structures on the surface... #geology #Paleontology

I continue to be angry that we all got blamed for causing coral bleaching by using sunscreen, based on a single paper that hasn't been repeatable, but the actual cause of coral bleaching keeps getting ignored by the general public even as the papers proving it keep stacking up.

La Terra ha raggiunto il primo spaventoso punto di non ritorno: le barriere coralline non possono resistere a questi livelli di innalzamento delle temperature. Lo annuncia un report stilato da 160 ricercatori di 23 paesi alla vigilia della COP30 dell'ONU sul clima www.nature.com/articles/d41...

How W. E. B. Du Bois responded to government policing of "anti-American" sentiment during the 1910s: "I took great satisfaction in being able to sit back in my chair and answer blandly, 'We are seeking to have the Constitution of the United States thoroughly and completely enforced.' ”

A lot of comments on Mars rovers or Moon landings, but it's important to remember that the planet NASA studies most is Earth. This is less about cutting flashy things like moonwalks and more about keeping communities in the dark on climate, weather, agriculture, pollution, natural hazards, and more.

When you want to "like" it but don't like it

Seagrasses are great but this is false. Most carbon in the ocean is dissolved inorganic carbon and seagrass carbon is a tiny fraction of that. The mixing of stock and flux is also unhelpful. The only way to stop climate change is not burning fossil fuels. reasonstobecheerful.world/seagrass-res...

Back to Germany to do final sampling of the 3.22 Ga Moodies Group. I'll also be presenting for the first time most of the vast palaeontological data set I've collected over the last 2 years to the project Group. 1/n #geology #paleontology
