Bluesky CEO: I turned a Twitter research project into a rival companyβ€”'we've achieved what a lot of people said was impossible' Under CEO Jay Graber, social media company Bluesky has grown to 38 million registered users while weathering large-scale challenges over the past few years.

From a Twitter research project to an independent rival β€” Bluesky’s journey under CEO Jay Graber shows how a decentralized, user-first platform gained millions users by prioritizing control & openness in social media. A true alternative in a billionaire-dominated space. www.cnbc.com/2025/08/29/b...

I was asked an interesting question at a (worky/networky) dinner this week. "What percentage of the human proteome has experimentally determined structures?" - Do you know the answer off the top of your head?

A small Montana town grapples with the fallouts from federal worker cuts Science is an economic driver in Hamilton, Mont., thanks to Rocky Mountain Laboratories, a federal research lab. Now, layoffs and funding cuts are having an impact in this town far from Washington.
