We are excited to share our new manuscript on Nature Neuroscience where we report the flexible bioelectronics capable of tracking neural activity from the same cells during the entire adult life of mice.nature.com/articles/s4159…

Things I have learned from chatGPT recently: -- circuit design with a thermal fuse -- ffmpeg codecs for color videos -- entire shell script (!) to parse args + trim videos -- explain Dask (delayed arrays vs bags) It's like having a distracted expert -- trust but verify.

Very excited to try this in Slides and see if it can make animated slides for me. No more hours wasted animating plots one at a time 🙏🙏🙏

Devs will just work *with* gpt. It’s not an adversarial thing. Eg if I want to make a web app (which I know nothing about), even if gpt does 95%, if there’s some subtle Java bug or an unusual behavior I want, I’m no better than 0%. Dev still required to finish.

In all domains of life, natural selection crafted mechanisms to defend against pathogens. Remarkably, some of the evolved proteins are shared among all domains of life, including nucleotide binding leucine-rich repeat immune receptors (NLRs) 1/n

“Even with…vaccines and climate change, skeptics can understandably ask, ‘Why should we trust the consensus, if it comes out of a clique that brooks no dissent?’” Achem…liberals are not who I’d be looking at re brooking no dissent wrt vaccines and climate change!

Despite the ostensible simplicity of this advice, knowing exactly *how good* the experiment has to be in order to be meaningful is a very hard thing to learn!

Imagine this but for US passports. Send it in for renewal with a printed form…no confirmation, no online portal…8 weeks later, get a new passport in an unremarkable envelope. Kind of wild.

The fans at TD are like the worst possible incarnation of a “TURBO” meter in some 2000’s era video game. As soon as the Heat have any success, they’re totally drained. Where is the unconditional energy??

Someone figured out you could use Stable Diffusion (+ControlNet) to adapt QRs into images while still having them work reliably: reddit.com/r/StableDiffus…

The new NIH approach to grant review is a GO and will apply to submissions after Jan 25, 2025. One more year to work that reputational bias, friends. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/n…

@OmariJHardy That is NOT what the research shows. Some studies have found a home-state boost for VP picks and some have not depending on methodology, and the former included one published in American Political Science Review that found an average 2.67% advantage, enough to shape four races since 1960. 1/2
