Saying your unvarnished opinion without regard for the feelings of others is not the same thing as telling the truth. It might be important for us to all get on the same page about this one.

Can’t wait until the devs finally push Full Self-Awareness to all customers. Humanity 1.0 is gonna be so lit.

Today’s intrusive thought: do you think chicken and waffles counts as Chanukah food?

No you don’t understand, this is prescription Suchet.

Apparently this strain of flu A does that thing from The Stand: you rally for 24 hours and feel fine, and then you slide back into the fever swamps. Every child in this town is sick right now. At my youngest kid’s school they canceled the hOliDaY CoNcErt

On the issue of LLMs in science, @kevinbaker.bsky.social has written this piece which identifies some of the right questions we should be asking. Worth reading for anyone doing academic science. 🧪 open.substack.com/pub/artifici...

I have something nice to say. Today, out of the blue, we got a knock on the door. It was a thoughtful and heartfelt apology from someone who really put us through the wringer a few months ago, and who we haven't interacted with since. I have so much respect for this person.

Oh. Yeah this is happening to me too.

Hello friends, I recently lost my health insurance + benefits & am currently looking at a bill of over $16,000 for which I cannot pay. This would not necessarily be an issue if I were not visually impaired and currently out of full time work, but I am humbly asking for assistance now. Any bit helps.

I'm out of the SRF game and missed that people are starting to experiment with robotic assembly of SRF cavity strings. This is kind of interesting. agenda.linearcollider.org/event/10134/...

Louis Sachar knows what’s up.

I like to gripe about moving instruments, but I can't imagine moving an incredibly delicate dark matter detector to a lab a mile below the surface of the earth. Also it's ~90°F down there (although I think there's HVAC in the lab areas). #chemchat #butreallyphysicschat www.sdsmt.edu/news/release...

I am subskeeting roughly one thousand people right now: I never need to see what anyone on Twitter is saying about Anne Frank. No more screen shots please and thank you.

U wet bro?

Oh yeah did I ever tell you guys I work at Half Life 2?

Over the last year I’ve switched over to Linux for almost all my computing, personal and professional. I will be real with you: it’s more of a pain in the ass than mac or windows. It is more annoying. But. It’s also way more dignified.

At the very end of this room is an old janky door leading to a stretch of beamline that has been unused for decades. Want to see?

Reporting back: the magnet was indeed big.

Hyped to go look at a big magnet today

Oh. I looked it up and this thing gets to be person sized

I dunno man the concept of actually owning something you pay for must be like a drug if you're under 30

Fellas what’s stopping you from doing this

Starting weeks before Halloween, my kids have been telling this joke: Why didn’t the skeleton cross the road? He didn’t have the guts! I have heard this joke one thousand times, followed by shrieking, joyous laughter. Today in the car, after telling # 1001: “Aba?” “Yeah?” “… What’s guts?”

How it started / How it's going A paper by Falcke, Melia, and Agol appeared in The Astrophysical Journal OTD in 1999, arguing it might be feasible to image the shadow of a distant supermassive black hole using Very Long Baseline Interferometry. 🧪 🔭 📡 ⚫️ Image: EHT Collaboration

Peter Shor speaking to a packed house at Fermilab. I'm not an algorithms guy but this was a fun lecture. After a bit of his personal history, he got into a really interesting question: why haven't we found more quantum algorithms? Quick thread (1/n)

If you're compiling a list of Guy Types and your PokeGuyDex is sparsely populated, may I suggest coming to a physics conference. There are so many Guy* Types in this room with me. *gender-inclusive

Had to scrape ice off the inside of my windshield today, so you all have to be extra nice to me.

KATRIN also released results today in the same issue of Nature, consistent with this conclusion. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I'm told we're going to get some news out of the MicroBooNE neutrino experiment tomorrow. Liquid argon time projection chamber enthusiasts, heads up. 🧪 microboone.fnal.gov

There’s this trope in art where, for example, Einstein is stuck on a hard problem and then someone else says “man this emcee is really square” and Einstein goes “WAIT SAY THAT AGAIN??” This trope elides a lot of what I love about scientific creativity and teamwork. But this story is incredible.

I’ve been seeing people on here talk about the new knives out movie like they’ve seen it, so I opened up netflix tonight. And its not up yet, all I see is this

I simply cannot say enough good things about QICK. If you need to control superconducting qubits or some other types of qubits, QICK is your huckleberry 🧪 news.fnal.gov/2025/11/ener...

"There is no antimememtics division" is a good book! Worth your time if you like smart and sometimes scary sci-fi.
