Cold comfort to know that greater scientists than me struggle with computational biology funding from NIH. Something desperately needs to change if the US is going to stay on the forefront of cutting edge biomedical research.

#Squidtember 🦑 Squid babies I imaged at Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Woods Hole, MA. They just hatched, are about 2mm long, and can already change color! So cute! I was so thrilled I was showing this video to random strangers! Reactions varied 😅

Lots of folks are talking about *emergence* in Deep Learning as if it's a new thing, that happens only in large language models at scale. It's not! It has been happening for decades and in very small networks. 🧵 🧵 🧵 🧵 🧵 🧵 🧵 🧵 🧵

My instrument isn't portable to the picket line, but I enjoyed representing UAW Local 5810 by playing Solidarity Forever on the Berkeley carillon tonight. #FairUCNow

Ok so I enjoy this joke a lot too, but the actual history behind this is a bit more complicated and honestly illuminating in its wackiness. Let's talk about Roman calendars! So why do the 'number months' (Sept-Dec) not correspond to their numbers (7-10)? 1/

Such a powerful mandate! Northwestern University Graduate Workers (NUGW) is coming in strong to negotiate their first contract. Incredibly proud for you all. I believed it when I was a grad GEO at UIUC, and I believe it as faculty now: the university works because grads do.

When ppl ask "what's your favorite experiment," my answer is Stern-Gerlach: an elegant, powerful demonstration that some of quantum theory's most bizarre predictions are correct. Now, for the 1st time, we can read the original paper in English!

#GGR2022 Kirsten Neuschäfer (39) - "MINNEHAHA" officially became the first woman to win a round the world race by the three great capes, including solo & fully crewed races, non-stop or with stops, & the first South African sailor to win a round-the-world event! BRAVO

Horrified that the Chicago Symphony Orchestra WFMT concert at Millenium Park is still going forward despite AQI>250. NOBODY should be out in this, but you know who have no choice & can't mask? Wind/brass players. Cancel it, Chicago DCASE Mayor of Chicago cso.org/performances/2… @CFM10208
