And his company did fail. The public Human Genome Project mapped the human genome first to help it assemble the pieces. Venter tried to beat them by skipping the mapping part but it didn't work and he ended up relying on HGP's map to assemble his version of the genome

It looks like Anthropic has included fake paper generation in their model alignment considerations and Claude tries to avoid doing it. Maybe we need to make more noise about this in general to get the others model developers onboard with this.

2. The Slow Path: Go slow, verify everything, achieve frustration This is the “responsible adult” mode. The engineer tries to: - read every line - reconstruct intent - validate assumptions - check invariants - write tests the model should have written - rewrite, refactor, and fix all things (6)

Wait, so ONT demonstrated that they solved protein nanopore sequencing, including three PTMs, on peptides with a few zeptomolar accuracy (1e-21 !, 6 molecules/mL) almost a year ago (finally catching up London calling 2025) and no-one made a big deal out of it ?? This is actually insane.

Anyone with non existing reference in their paper should get publicly named and shamed, and barked from any scientific role forever. The continuity of knowledge is too important, we have to be able to trace the source of scientific claims.

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

Anyone knows more about the new Russian cancer vaccine ? The most reliable info I could find in English is that it's 4 viruses. The new press releases also sound like the full treatment involves personalized mRNA and that it was tested in 48 patients with 100% success new.nmicr.ru/en/pacientam...

Je m’arrête là dessus un instant, car je vois souvent cette étude citée pour dire qu’en gros le recours à la clim augmenterait systématiquement la température de la ville de 2 à 3°C et que c’est bien la preuve que c’est pas une solution. Ce qui est complètement partiel et trompeur.

If I could change one thing about #ScientificPublishing I'd ask funding bodies to stipulate all work they fund be published in non-profit journals. The knock-on effects would alleviate most of the strain on #AcademicSky. This isn't hard. It's big, but actually, it's pretty easy. 1/n

The strain on scientific publishing

But if falls to less than 5% in winter, when Europe needs the most electricity. Notice on the left graph how wind, *gas* and *coal* take over. Europe needs to scale up nuclear and batteries big time, for the climate and for it's energy independence. (Hydro scale up is not possible sadly).

NEW | Solar power was the EU’s biggest power source in June 2025 ☀️ For the first time, solar ranked first among all power sources, producing 22.1% of the EU’s power ahead of nuclear at 21.8%. Coal power fell to a record low 6.1% in sixth place.

Nice thing about having a thermal camera on your phone is that you can quantify your suffering during a heat wave. You can also check if your insulation measures are working and how much worse it could get which is nice I guess.

Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪
