🤯Just asked ChatGPT: “Can you figure out where this speaker is from?” It listened to the video for <1 second [1] and said: “Likely South Yorkshire, near Doncaster.” I don’t know whether to be impressed or terrified... [1] youtube.com/watch?v=fOORfz…

Calling c the "speed of light" completely misses the point. Rather, c is the "spacetime exchange rate": how many units of space you can exchange for one unit of time. In actuality, everything travels at the "speed of light", just not necessarily through space alone... (1/4)

Ok I have run out of time writing 3 NIH grants all at the same time, so I locked myself on my own in a hotel room in Avila Beach until they are finished, while my daughter goes to see Hearst Castle. Let’s see if this works :)

🔥How long before your upcoming talk does the wall of panic hit and you stop procrastinating and write the talk? (asking for a friend :) [1] [1] I once saw a colleague calmly write their talk in PPT during the previous person's talk

Jack Kosmicki You would think that there should be examples where deep learning would eventually do better than a linear PRS, e.g., in Alzheimer's disease polygenic risk, where some haplotypes (e.g., APOE4) are known to interact with local (and global) ancestry in a way that affects risk.

This was my other prediction, but assuming a PI cannot spend more than 40 hours / week writing grants, then presumably each lab's payroll will drop by an amount that is about the same as the NIH cut.* *many assumptions here: (1) the total number of applications is not the same
