Watson and Crick elucidated the structure of DNA. Stop saying that they discovered DNA! This was done by another guy you probably haven't heard of! And therein lies a story. academic.oup.com/genetics/art...

"Enfin - et ce ne sera pas une surprise si vous connaissez mon parcours d’éducateur - nous devons mener à bien la suppression totale du ministère de l’Éducation" (ce ministère a été créé le 17 octobre 1979 par Jimmy Carter et la Heritage Foundation en réclamait la suppression dès janvier 1980)

L' #OffensiveObscurantiste devient de plus en plus délirante. On aurait tort d'en rire. Certains y croient, et d'autres y voient une opportunité électorale. Il va y avoir des conséquences.

Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows. Does this sound familiar? Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."

BREAKING: RFK Jr. flees the scene after Novo Nordisk Executive Gordon Findlay collapsed in the Oval Office. Findlay is reportedly ok.

Neuroscience must broaden its ontological mission beyond treatment of DSM-defined disorders to include functional misalignments and productivity in everyday life The concept of behavioral “wind tunnels", by analogy with aerodynamics, may help to achieve this goal www.jneurosci.org/content/45/4...

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

"What we see, I think, are a bunch of rich guys who have been comically out of touch with normal people for many decades, and more recently have blowtorched their brains into a smoking pile of ash on Elon Musk’s Twitter/X and in various group chats." prospect.org/2025/11/04/a...

A.I. chatbots have become a new front in the war over what is true and false, replicating the partisan debate seen on mainstream and social media. We tested several and found that they produced starkly different answers, especially on political issues.

Errrrr … how many times God? God: none actually. Closer to what ICE is doing in American cities.

When the suspects appear to be white guys, it’s not a bombing — it’s an intentional explosion.

Congratulations, Andrew Cuomo! I know how hard you worked for this.

A funny conversation with a newcomer at the contra dance in Woods Hole last night: Me: What brings you to Woods Hole? He: I’m a neuroscientist, working on octopuses. Me: I’m a neuroscientist too! I study patches of human cortex that do ridiculously specific things. He: Oh like that Kanwisher stuff?

Been reading "What is Innateness?" by Paul Griffiths (2002) philpapers.org/rec/EGRWII in which he offers this very sound advice:

Ok: I understand, though of course don’t agree with, a politics of not wanting to help other people. I struggle much more with a politics of actively wanting to harm them.

Our species has survived and thrived not by being bigger, faster, or stronger, but by being clever* And our cleverness is never better illustrated than when we design experiments to try to determine how clever other animals are compared to us www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 1/2

Staggering atrocities in Sudan. Following the mass slaughter of nearly 500 men, women, and children at a maternity hospital, UN officials say: "The situation is simply horrifying... El Fasher, already the scene of catastrophic levels of human suffering, has descended into an even darker hell."

Passive submission and addiction Did you know that in the 1920s and 1930s, passive submission to the forced administration of drugs (for example, cocaine) was considered by scientists of the time to be a behavioral indicator of addiction in non-human animals? 1/3

Quand notre ministre de tutelle nous insulte devant la représentation nationale. "Bande de nuls" "complètement à la ramasse". Nous reprocher des taux de réussite faible à Horizon Europe et ERC, quand manquent les moyens pour assurer nos missions de service public. Surtout changez rien!👌

After 13 years in the US, I’ve made the difficult decision to leave. Having packed up everything and rethought about priorities, rather painstakingly, while I’m sad to leave the life I’ve made here, I’m also relieved that I won’t have to plan my life around immigration policies anymore.

Nothing like a good cry over my morning coffee as Wei heads out 💔. The US is crazy to not do everything possible to keep and treasure people like her. I know she will do wonderful things where ever she lands - this is our loss
