"The UMAP shows good inter-mixing of 10xv2 and 10xv3 transcriptomes overall." This has become a common refrain in #scRNAseq. Don't believe what your eyes are telling you.

I think most people using UMAPs don't realize that when points are colored in order (the default way of plotting), buried colors make the points appear to be (much!) better grouped together than they really are. This figure is from the supplement of biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I think we can call it shut on 'Open' AI: the 98 page paper introducing GPT-4 proudly declares that they're disclosing *nothing* about the contents of their training set.

When I was a student, my performance would also increase significantly when I was able to procure the exam questions and their answers the week before.

A suicidal move from German academia👇🏼Rather than increasing the # of exceptionally few TT positions this “reform” proposes to limit postdoc periods up to 3 years, after which postdocs will either have to find a permanent position (that are almost non-existent) or leave academia.

Konfederacja dałaby dużo, żeby ten film zniknął z internetu. Nie zniknie. Pan Sławomir Mentzen mówi prost. „5 konfederacji! Nie chcemy Żydów, homoseksualistów, aborcji, podatków i Unii Europejskiej”. To przekaz faszystów a nie patriotów. Zobaczcie jak Was robią w konia!

In the fall of 1972, President Nixon announced that "the rate of increase of inflation was decreasing". Probably the first time a sitting president used the 3rd derivative to increase the chances of reelection.

How crazy is this - Males of the yellow crazy ant are chimeras of haploid cells from two divergent lineages: R and W. R cells are overrepresented in the males’ somatic tissues, whereas W cells are overrepresented in their sperm. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Day 21 of great biology papers. "On protein synthesis," by F.H.C. Crick. This paper, adapted from a Sept. 1957 lecture, "permanently altered the logic of biology," wrote Horace Judson in The Eighth Day of Creation. It made several accurate predictions, ahead of its time. ***

Informuję ministra Przemysław Czarnek, że Powstanie'44 nie osiągnęło żadnych zakładanych celów wojskowych a tym bardziej politycznych i zakończyło się aktem kapitulacji strony polskiej. Jeśli uważa Pan to za zwycięstwo to jak definiuje Pan klęskę?
