c0nc0rdance@c0nc0rdance.bsky.social · 51m agoIf you wanted to fly from Argentina's Ezeiza International Airport (EZE) to Perth in Western Australia (PER), you'll need to connect in: Sydney (SYD), a trip of ~30+ hrs, 11,000 miles or Auckland (AKL) a trip of ~25+ hrs, 9,800 miles. But there's a shorter, FORBIDDEN trip. Over Antarctica.

Binary Star Research Services is proud to announce that we plan on doing YOUR comp chem on Europa and Io! We will power our servers using Io's INEXHAUSTABLE INTERNAL FIRES (TM) and cool them using Europa's INFINITE ICE (TM). This will cut our power costs by a factor of INFINITY. Details to follow.
Honesetly, when I say this call out I thought "but i have to get ready for work in 5 mins". then I remembered who I was.

Some reactions (eg LDA) are sensitive but something like a Suzuki - as long as you have about 1 eq each of R-Br and boronate, >2 eq base and a bit of catlayst - you’re most likely good to go The +/- on those numbers are pretty forgiving

Fungus Evolution Biochemistry Everything a good pun needs

🚨 After 40 years of research, Brazilian scientist Dr. Mariangela Hungria wins the World Food Prize for pioneering a $2 nitrogen-fixing bacteria treatment that replaces costly fertilizers, saves farmers $25 billion annually, and cuts 230 million tons of CO₂ emissions.
(Side note: As a frequent flier, the true, most common, violator of this norm is the airline itself, with its incessant ads for credit cards coming through the same PA system as safety information. If I were king (and it is a good thing I am not), I would ban these ads.)
So why isn't Fox news televising interviews of all the happy people who live near data centers so we can hear what a treat it is to live with the constant noise, lights, increased utility costs and non-existent new jobs?
I became an organic chemist the moment I realized people would pay me to solve puzzles for a living.
