How to deal with the multiscale nature of evolution, which displays different time scales of change? We need to replace classic genotype spaces with multiscapes. Here's a great paper by my friend Susanna Manrubia and coworkers @mncn-csic.bsky.social rsob.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/royo... …

In the Future All Food Will Be Cooked in a Microwave, and if You Can’t Deal With That Then You Need to Get Out of the Kitchen As a restaurant owner – I’m astounded at the rate of progress since microwaves were released a few short years ago. Today’s microwave can cook a frozen burrito. Tomorrow’s m…

"One of my chefs mentioned that if they could cook the steak on the grill they could get it right the first time. This is not an acceptable attitude in the microwave era."

It's fun to publish something 20 years ago which refutes a recently published proof of P ≠ NP

Springer publishes a P ≠ NP "proof" and Eric Allender has words to say.

One extra encoding step (file-> wave) would’ve been so cool, but maybe the frequency shift in the bird’s encoding would corrupt the wave -> file decoding afterwards. Anyways this video is definitely the coolest I’ve seen all year

Sounds like the premise from a @gregegansf.bsky.social short story

(1/4) Our recent work shows DTI-ALPS is confounded by white matter geometry (crossing fibers, undulation, dispersion), ALPS-asymmetry signature (ALPS measures asymmetry of diffusion) occurs throughout all WM, and ALPS-WM is not always orthogonal to PVS onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/TPCABU...

How do fleeting experiences become lasting memories?
Initially, your hippocampus and cortex work together, but over time, the cortex assumes control. Check this excellent @cshlpress.bsky.social paper on Memory Consolidation

all i want is to one day own a modest sized home in a walkable neighborhood and raise money for shelter animals. wear an outfit i like, walk to the grocery store, buy some nectarines, feed cats, and live in peace. just don't understand why achieving this is so hard

Our newest manuscript now in Scientific Reports. Title says it all "The relationship of white matter tract orientation to vascular geometry in the human brain" - where does WM align (and not align) with vasculature? @masi-lab.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Finishing #NetSciEd2025, @lmrocha.bsky.social gave us a dialectical and historical perspective on systems thinking. I liked a lot how he pointed out the systemic constraints our current academic system puts on transdisciplinary. Very nice way to finish my #NetSci2025 day!
