Google DeepMind disbands its Nobel-prize winning AlphaFold team - Engadget

DeepMind's award-winning AlphaFold team is no more.

I've never needed convincing. But I've seen the devastation of forest fires. I know people who had to evacuate their homes, not knowing if there'd be anything to get back to. I'm now more convinced than ever. Climate change is real. And it's everybody's responsibility to do even the tiniest bit.

Yesterday afternoon 14:09 in Lacanau Océan in France. A pale red sun through the smoke tinged everything in Mars style orange. Welcome in the climate emergency! Despite all denial of the fossil fuel lobby, it’s scientific fact: CO2 emissions heat up Earth & make fires worse. 🔥🔥🔥

This isn’t tens of thousands of poor people losing their homes in the global south, but tens of thousands of rich people fleeing a popular vacation spot in the south of France, so maybe the rich countries will finally care about climate change.

Five years ago, the #AlphaFold Database, a collaboration with Google DeepMind, made predicted protein structures free for everyone to use. Today, the database contains over 260 million structure predictions and is used by more than 3.5 million researchers in 190 countries around the world.

Best bit of the World Cup halftime show? The faces of the other presenters when Wayne Rooney called it "crap" when asked to sum it up. Worth the thirty minutes just for that.

🎉 Finally out!! Our paper, "DynaPIN: A tool for characterizing dynamic protein interfaces" is accepted in JMB! @ezgikaraca.bsky.social (in collaboration with @sacquin-mo.eurosky.social & co.) DynaPIN is an open-source pipeline for analyzing dynamic protein interfaces. 🧵👇 📄 doi.org/10.1016/j.jm...

To complement the paper, @ezgikaraca.bsky.social and I recently presented DynaPIN as part of the @bioexcelcoe.bsky.social webinar series, covering the motivation, a live demo, and where it can be applied. 📺 Webinar: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kr5_...

I am once again begging Hollywood to stop using the Greek alphabet for an Ancient World movie, if they can't afford to even throw a couple of quid at anyone with an inkling of the language. Unless they really think audiences are dying to see THS THDPSSSSPS

14 dagen hittegolf is 900 extra doden in NL. 365 dagen verkeer is 759 extra doden in NL. Nederland heeft dit jaar dus meer klimaatdoden, dan verkeersdoden. En de zomer is nog niet voorbij.

The half-time break at the World Cup final is expected to be around 30 minutes long in order to accommodate Fifa’s star-studded show — breaching the maximum time of 15 minutes permitted under the Laws of the Game

I work at Google DeepMind. This won't make me popular. But it's all public reporting: 2014: DeepMind reportedly sold to Google on conditions: no military use, independent oversight 2026: a Pentagon contract for "any lawful government purpose" Not one safeguard survived intact

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

It's worth stressing that the *magnitude* by which some of these records are being broken is nothing short of astonishing
