Guiding protons around the Large Hadron Collider doesn't have to be just a tough engineering challenge! Take control of those pesky electric and magnetic fields with your phone! ⚛️🧪

Filtering Higgs Boson candidates from backgrounds is conceptually very simple and can be a fantastic and fun work out 😅🏋️‍♂️ ⚛️🧪

This is extremely chilling - virologists being targeted for what appears to be minor (if any) "offenses". We all know _why_ this is happening, so I'm not going to belabor that point - but I want to provide some context on the technical details. 🧵 www.science.org/content/arti...

Christian Ferko - and many others - have noticed that there is a very well trodden rhetorical path in contrarian "science" communication circles. Have you noticed it? Why does it recur so often? Clip: youtube.com/shorts/SbIuc... Full: youtube.com/watch?v=J7lL... ⚛️🧪

So this is one of the hard question my buddy @badboyofscience.bsky.social and I wanted to answer when we set out to build our #ScienceCounterpunch podcast. We invited many experts & defenders of science to speak about how anti-science operates, and what we need to understand about it. TL;DR 🔽 7/
