It’s only half the sentence.
AI could cure all disease in a decade…by wiping out humanity. <evil cackling laugh>
AI tools in biomedical are great and getting better, but giving suffering patients false hope is not helpful.
Very cool! And also kinda grim
Well this is great. Wondering how I can incorporate it into our safety protocols
(The answer is no by the way)
postdoc: “yeah I didn’t want to do it in my fumehood so I thought it was safer in the microwave”
I dont see how this gets there?! I thought a dodgy translation but that doesn’t make sense as the phrases wouldn’t interchange in another language. Did someone ask a really stupid AI to reword a published experimental to avoid copy pasting? And how did no reviewer or editor - or author - spot it?

It is the anniversary of the My Lai massacre today. I'd say that even more than most years, it's important to remember what happened.
And the role Hugh Thompson, an active serviceman, played in both stopping and publicising it. Despite enormous military, political and public pressure to stay quiet.
having been an undergrad project student in the Fleming group, probably Fleming-Tamao! But either sounds right to me. not like Suzuki-Miyaura where Miyaura often gets lost
Good news: meeting finished on time Friday
Bad news: booked the later train because I didn’t expect it to
not really good news but…: the earlier train I could have caught is cancelled anyway
Good news: time to get a pint of lovely pre journey beer
(later bad news: train toilets probably rank)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rail_Se... I think someone on here may have posted on it at some point too. @garius.bsky.social maybe?
If you google it (and I know because I did it once) you get pages and pages of people discussing it on railway forums…TLDR there’s a centralised computer model that works out which train companies you are most likely to have used for your journey and divides the money accordingly.

Loved this one. encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn...
Ah it’s tedious. There’s a run of about 5000 words in the middle that do nothing but describe how white the whale apparently is.
Great to be part of this event @chemicalprobes.org - nice to return to the complexities of GPCRs for a day!
Inactive batch 2 and dead cells, were you in our lab meeting this week?! Although we had “literature compound surprisingly working” instead…
I better check the patent updates and submit some more things for hERG just in case this list is fortune telling
When you work in drug discovery there are *so* many ways of hearing you're in for a very bad day.
Efficacy Results Came Back
[competitor] Patent Just Published
Batch Two Looks Inactive
Every Example Has hERG
Literature Compound Isn't Working
The Cells Died... Again
Hits Everything In Selectivity
Well, I am an scientist so the only way to find out is experiment
important scientific question: would a beer help me finish these overdue meeting slides faster?
Can confirm the letters turned to mush upon the ground would, in fact, re-assemble into the missing spots on the tree. Fantastic (even if they didn't)!

Wow. You sure about closing that London site, MSD?

I love London so much. So much.
Did you know that London has the lowest level of ethnic violence of any city of comparable size in the world?
Multiculturalism has in fact worked here. They just don’t want it to be true because we happen to have a Muslim mayor.
Two very important graphs.
Net migration reached record levels in 2023 - and has since halved.
The vast majority of arrivals comprises students and workers.
Arrivals in small boats and asylum seekers - less than 5%.

Reminder that 100,000 people marched for Trans Pride in London earlier this year, but because they weren't violent fascists, there was minimal press coverage, unlike the Nazis today.
