#WashingtonDC has a grim but important Holocaust Museum - really well done spaces that wind down from the fourth floor - starting from Hitler's rise to power. It's one thing to know about it generally (and watch a few movies and documentaries) but seeing the […] [Original post on mastodon.online]

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” It costs a lot less to house people.

There were layoffs at MS yesterday and 3 #python core devs from the Faster CPython team were caught in them. If you know of any jobs, please send them their way (they kind of know Python, CPython, and its internals well 😉): Eric Snow: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericsnowcurrently/ Irit Katriel: […]

At the request of a journal editor, I reviewed a paper by leading researchers on one of my favorite #chemistry topics - tautomers! This article was featured in the Journal of Cheminformatics. I am grateful for the #PeerReview certificate of recognition […] [Original post on fosstodon.org]

The 2025_03_1 release of #rdkit release includes my contribution to speed up part of getting 2D fingerprints for a molecule by ~75x! So if you generate #chemical fingerprints, now is a good time to upgrade. Reminder that I'm #OpenToWork so if you're hiring for #Cheminformatics or […]

Sen. Van Hollen and his meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador is all over the news and social media. Joe Rogan is talking about the value of due process, wrongly denied to Abrego Garcia. Thankfully the “just poll, then do what’s already popular, never try to lead or shape opinion” crowd lost.

Until Schumer is removed as the Dems' Senate leader, there is zero (or less) chance of saving the nation from total dictatorship. If that isn't obvious today, nothing is.

Glad to see the #StandUpForScience March in DC and other locations March 7th] has a [#Pittsburgh event too. Likely going to be in Schenley Plaza near #Pitt and #CMU https://standupforscience2025.org/local-event-information/ cc: @ghutchis.bsky.social#standupforscience#pittsburgh#pitt#cmuchlord

Since they are definitely going to try to kill Social Security, it is worth mentioning that it is one of the most successful poverty reduction programs of all time.

We interrupt your regularly scheduled morning plum blossom appreciation session to announce the arrival of the Kawazu sakura in Tokyo 🎉

Senator, welcome to Bluesky. Can you explain why you're sponsoring a bill to repeal Section 230, which would effectively make it impossible for Bluesky to do what it's doing today, creating this kind of space? Thanks. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/21/w...

Not everyone can fight Trumpism and Trumpists directly. But remember this: kindness, decency, and fidelity to American values are defiance in the face of Trumpism. So be kind, decent, and faithful, particularly to the many kinds of people despised and attacked by Trumpists. That’s revolutionary./1

As the YouTubers would say, “A lot of you have been asking me about how to write #Cheminformatics blog posts.” Well, not a lot, but at least a couple! Here's my process. https://bertiewooster.github.io/2024/11/21/Cheminformatics-Blogging-How-To.html #python #rdkit #chemistry
