Check out the latest from the Glick lab, some fantastic work by fellow grad student Adam Krahn!

I once found a restriction enzyme with a lot number in the single digits while going through one of our labs freezers. Also once found a primer that was older than me. Always an adventure.

We just passed that too and the last word being "sir?" makes much more sense than what I read as "siri"

A sad short poem: For sale. NVIDIA GPUs. Never installed.

I can't decide betwen Obamalith and Obamalisk

What is Mustelidthuania?

Apparently Cantina Rosa has an all day happy hour on Sundays, which is very dangerous information to learn

Gotta love some neighbors in our building letting the rest of us know that they’re having a party tonight by texting after the party has already started.

They should invent a convention center with places to sit and charge devices instead of having to squat on the floor next to the only outlet within 10 city blocks

Day one of #CellBio2025 isn’t even over and I can already confidently say Philly is the best location I’ve been to because I can eat every meal in Chinatown.

Could man make a decorative yard skeleton to tall He could not wrangle it?

Seems like health care would be a pretty important part of "quality of life" especially for people at retirement age

Never a bad time to rewatch this banger from @hbomberguy.bsky.social and get really angry all over again

Actually, the "Bitcoin buried in Newport landfill" is pretty whimsical upon second reflection. Man drives himself to madness concocting plan to dig through a mountain of garbage.

No missing treasures from the last 50 years with an existence status of "Legend" is really a sign that we're in dire times. Where's the whimsy?

Seems bad!

WHAT WOULD POSSIBLY BE THE MECHANISM THIS IS SUCH CLOWN SHIT

Updated Zotero without realizing the new version is no longer compatible with ZotFile and now my whole paper organization system is borked and I just don't have the will to deal with that right now

I'm a single issue voter now, my issue: revenge

A little opera in the park/warzone

you'd think the governor of illinois basically going "we're being invaded by an authoritarian" would be something you'd see real easy on the front page of most everything an hour later

So it's an LLM which has to be trained on the wider internet to be at all useful, which means it has been trained on facts which are at odds with the entire platform of the Republican Party, right?

Just saw a video of someone in a lab somewhere that uses an InstantPot to autoclave their tips and I am shook

Once again, something broke in the building my lab is in and we’ve been asked to evacuate out of an abundance of caution. Good thing they’re putting a BSL3 tuberculosis lab in there!
