Honestly it's a pretty easy and very engrossing read!

It's a wild read. Big jailtime for people if charges stick

Eventually You're Going to Have to Stand for Something On accepting the fascist offer and being better than Ezra.

I wrote about why the regrettable conclusions of Ezra Klein pissed me off so badly in the last couple weeks.

On moral cowardice in an era that calls for clarity, and a popular political instinct to try to solve divisions of abuse by ignoring causes. www.the-reframe.com/eventually-y...

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Idk what you're talking about this is just very relatable computer trauma

It was gone in a flash!

We also want to do citeseq and sample multiplexing. No we don't have budget for test runs. LOAD THE CHIP, SHINJI, STOP CRYING.

All of this has happened before and it will happen again.

They took their pound of flesh but one wonders how much more meat is in the offing, explicitly accounted for or otherwise implied.

Its* . Heads up make sure your DAPI is set up to catch the emission from 421 - a lot of DAPI filtersets cut on too long and chop off a lot of the signal.

Don't sleep on flow dyes - BV421 (the donor at the base of most of the Brilliant Violets) and it's analogues are very bright and photostable. A little more inclined to clumping than most, but surely you're already spinning your tubes and pulling off the top.

Why waste a perfectly good protein/antibody channel on some crappy nuclei. I KNOW I'm looking at cells!

Sytox blue is bangin if you have a 440/CFP setup. Easy extra color.

Every centrist hagiographer: he said some very important stuff

Everyone: oh, like what?

Every centrist hagiographer: very important things

Everyone: Can you repeat some of those things he said?

Every centrist hagiographer, looking at their legal department frantically shaking their heads: no

What a horrible day to be literate

I'm about to start in a microscopy core and I'm so excited to see all the places immersion oil can go!

Love figures 5+6, really illustrate the massive leap in relative performance that air objectives can achieve with RR :)

Magnolias are simply the best.

Yeah no it's really bad lol. Hope shipping isn't interminable on the cheap one!

Devil's advocate - Any chance there is a NIST-tracable or other standards-compliant calibration/certification done on the expensive one?

good.

I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.

Printing and hanging this on my door. Writing it in sharpie all over my body. Tattooing it to my forehead. Lasering it into the eyes of AI evangelists, leaving a permanent, perfect manifesto of hate onto their retinas. In a just world, no jury would convict me. In this one, I die a hater, head high.

Which is wild because Pritzker looks like a guy who you befriend at a wedding and Newsom looks like someone asked a computer to render "Skeletor, but with flesh"

AI Is a Mass-Delusion Event Three years in, one of AI’s enduring impacts is to make people feel like they’re losing it.

Hello. I wrote a nice long essay about AI and this very strange moment where we're constantly told we're living in the dawn of a strange new future but the only thing that's actually clear is that everyone feels pretty unmoored and uncertain. I hope you'll read it

An abbreviation (ABB) in a journal article (JA) or Grant Application (GA) is rarely worth the words it saves. Every ABB requires cognitive resources (CR) and at my age by the time I'm halfway through a JA or GA I no longer have the CR to remember what your ABB stood for.
