Egg-cellent news! The first California condor eggs of the season have been laid at our wildlife conservation center, and more could be on the way.

Busy as a bee, stubborn as a mule, clever as a fox, fresh as a daisy, tall as a tree, and of course "following a chemical gradient like a slime mold".

Lets toast to the competitive antagonist to adenosine!

Why Salon's Autism Retraction Matters What a retraction from Salon means about the anti-vaccine movement.

It is 15 years since the paper Salon removed RFK jr's anti-vaccine article. But 15 years later the world still has a RFK problem.

A friend of mine didn't have Facebook and uses Linux, but he now use Gemini. I study at university, they have no problem with demanding we should download US apps. What I'm trying to say, that I sometimes feels like an oddball for trying to avoid US tech.

We just have to hope the voters in France and other European countries wants to defend Europe

Darwin’s “I think” tree on fabric

Darwin’s “I think” tree tattoo

Mysterious branching structures adorned several biologists, including one flock leader with a permanent display. Darwin’s evolutionary relationships…I think?

"War is peace!"

Silicon Valley has created a disinformation economy, for people who choose to be ignorant. I wouldn't be surprised if there are large social media propaganda accounts claiming that Greenlanders want to belong to the United States.

US economy. Trump and the techbro oligarchs - if that is a fair name for them - are not interested in US economy, they are interested in their own wealth. But sure, related, I want to know what economic weapons Europe have against the US.

What I hope too ...

After 1945 someone like Albert Speer could say he supported the antidemocrats to the right because he was afraid of the communist. The American people supported the far right because they were afraid of the centre-left party.

He famously ask for ammo last time.

Rätt "att anfalla vem som helst". Grönland och Panama?

I find this more likely than the idea that "Ho" is the null hypothesis.

Tomten = Oden= dj*vulen?!

Du menar att jag som medelålders inte bör starta ett enmansföretag inom film och life science—som dessutom måste odla svamp till gourmetrestauranger för att gå runt? Jag inte preciserar om life science beror på att jag har en sådan affärsidé, jag inte vill ge bort.

I wrote a poem named "A story from the 90s". It included the line: "The older generation said: 'all you need is love' Central Perk café style". The title was taken from Perec's: "Things a story from the 60s". In other words, is it still #aislop if I refers French modernist writers?

Three things that AI angst say are meaningless to work with. #aiangst #dailydoseofaiangst

En målning av ett husdjur. Låter det som en julklapp? (Jag har inte själv pengar att ge bort en sån julklapp med andra.)

Learning #python I played around with the library #geopy. It would be bad otherwise but geopy list #Sevastopol as an #Ukrainian city.

I enjoyed translating the title Remembrance of Earth's Past into DNA. It's a good trilogy. Also the part of me that has hubris thought I could win a podium place in a competition with this image. The coding was done by AI, but I had to do many spot checks because it got it wrong the first time.

So we should hope the aliens that find it, are not Jewish or Muslim - quite interesting.

Nobel Prize in Literature 2002 The Nobel Prize in Literature 2002 was awarded to Imre Kertész "for writing that upholds the fragile experience of the individual against the barbaric arbitrariness of history"

Is it far-fetched of me to want to link today's date to my theme: the Nobel Prize? #Kristallnacht www.nobelprize.org/prizes/liter...

Nobel Peace Prize 1990 The Nobel Peace Prize 1990 was awarded to Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev "for the leading role he played in the radical changes in East-West relations"

Btw, I didn’t have room to mention this earlier, but the Nobel Prizes in 1975 and 1989 were also awarded for discoveries related to retroviruses. 2/2
