Climate change in the WHO Pandemic Agreement negotiations: a qualitative study. Graph shows the evolution of different topics over different articles.

NEW PREPRINT! 🦠⚖️🌡️ The Pandemic Agreement is the first global health treaty to name climate change, and behind the scenes, the UNFCCC was a source of both inspiration and conflict. Cristina Arnés-Sanz and team tracked climate issues through three years of negotiations: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Eu mais gostei que torci o nariz. Tem uma derrapada ali no começo principalmente quando eles tem definir o que é IA e qual tipo de modelos tão sendo usados aonde. O Pentágono não usa o gpt da Natália Beauty somente, isso é meio óbvio mas tá confuso ali

We are published! We quantifying the spatiotemporal dynamics of the first two major waves of SARS-CoV-2 in the USA is online now!

By mapping the infections we were able to quantify the spread of SARS-CoV-2 over the contiguous US and we also estimated the speed of spread! tinyurl.com/y87tjnmd

Three years ago we set out to visualize and quantitatively examine the movement of SARS-CoV-2 leading up to the first two major COVID-19 waves in the US. Today all that hard work "hit the shelves" at PLOSCompBio. 🛟 Watch the spread (we have movies) and read more here: dx.plos.org/10.1371/jour...

Olha a linguagem usada aqui.
“O Irã não dá sinais de capitulação, ataca novos alvos na região” ou “O presidente Trump diz que havia justificativa para atacar” olha como o sujeito e objeto do verbo são omitidos de forma a parecer que a primeira frase não é consequência da ação da segunda

Isso aqui é o puro porno bélico. E não tô falando dos EUA e Israel, esse tipo de matéria é na verdade um modo de normalizar a violência e a barbáries, tornar atos de guerra um mero espetáculo tecnológico

Forecasting the Next Pandemic Led by scientists from Yale and the University of Oklahoma, the Viral Emergence Research Initiative (Verena) is one of the largest pandemic prevention research

Very special to wake up today to a profile of @viralemergence.org from Yale. We’re in month eight of turmoil right now, and it’s hard to focus on the science, but the truth is: we have a lot more work to do.

Hoje eu tentei explicar o que é um samba enredo em inglês. Falhei miseravelmente, claro

This recent RCT of an "AI stethoscope" claims the technology "shows promise" for diagnosing cardiovascular conditions.

It does not.

It is a textbook example of the risks of conducting unprincipled 'per protocol analyses'. Once again, peer review at a major medical journal has failed.

It is crazy how some YouTubers are just producing longer and longer videos, is like a movie about some niche subculture genre or a conspiracy plot about politics or how to make your espresso, a tutorial of one hour.

What strikes me is how pressures from the algorithm they’ve been to produce it

Vc manja que a história da demência foi plantada por um jornalista que na época da eleição tava tendo um caso com o RFK jr.? E que os democratas só aceitaram a Kamala porque ela é basicamente o Biden mais jovem

Oppose Nomination of Casey Means for Surgeon General The Senate HELP Committee is scheduled to hold a hearing on the nomination of Casey Means to serve as U.S. Surgeon General on Wednesday, February 25th. While we were hoping this nomination was dead, i...

I don't agree on anything with former VP Mike Pence. OK, one thing we do agree on: #CaseyMeans should not be US Surgeon General. The #GOP does not have the votes right now to get her nomination out of committee. Let's keep it that way. Write to your senators now. actionnetwork.org/letters/oppo...

Sabe uma coisa simples que precisa ter pra desenvolver e trabalhar com IA? Chip de computador, criar data center sem criar indústria nacional de produção de chips é pedir pra ser colonizado. O governo anuncia 23 bi de investimento em IA mas no começo do ano negou 10 bi pra modernizar a Ceitec

A classic black-and-white portrait photograph of Nobel Prize-winning physicist Maria Goeppert Mayer, taken in a classroom or lecture setting. She stands in front of a large chalkboard filled with handwritten nuclear physics equations, nuclear mass data, and element symbols (including notations like I¹²⁹, Cr⁵², and various alpha, beta, and gamma values). Goeppert Mayer has a thoughtful, focused expression as she gazes upward slightly, with her lips pursed in concentration. She wears a patterned dress with short-sleeved matching jacket with a geometric black-and-white design, a pearl necklace, and her hair styled in soft curls. In her hands, she holds a wooden slide rule.

Theoretical physicist Maria Goeppert Mayer died #OTD in 1972.

She shared the 1963 #Nobel Prize in Physics (w/Wigner & Jensen) "for their discoveries concerning nuclear shell structure." She was the second woman to win a Nobel in #physics. (Who was the first?)
