Pink Floyd’s “Wish You Here” (album is great, I mean the song) is top 10 GOAT, no comments needed. It’s bible. So simple, so dark, yet also so hopeful, so emotional. Just perfection…

I became a biologist because of a museum exhibit. Real artifacts tell stories that are more powerful than anything we can get from scrolling. They are part of our engine for training the next generation of scientists. 🧪 scienceforeveryone.science/the-awesomen...

The awesomeness of museums

Genuine artifacts tell the richest stories that fill our souls. And they fuel the scientific enterprise.

Four days ago, a scientist was surprised by the news that Anthropic discovered new virus genes for making DNA. He says he’s been studying them for years—and feeding his data to Anthropic’s AI as part of his own research. Coincidence? Here’s my story. nyti.ms/3VSWayc

Did Anthropic’s A.I. Really Make a Scientific Discovery on Its Own? (Gift Article)

An expert at the University of Copenhagen said his team had been sharing its research with the company’s A.I. model, Claude, and that its new finding matched their work.

Not that I believe in such things, but are they considered a different sub species?

I think a bigger concern with the “dire wolves“ is that Canids are not reproductively isolated — if released these GMO “dire wolves” would interbreed with wild gray wolves, and turn them into dire wolves? And when they mate with red wolves are they now dire ones? www.nwf.org/Home/Magazin...

Is Synthetic Biology Worth the Risk?

Some say using synthetic biology to change the DNA of plants and animals could help species survive threats. Others say the technology is far too dicey.

This is the stuffed body of Martha, the last known surviving passenger pigeon, on display in the Natural History Building of the Smithsonian Institution United States National Museum circa 1920 Martha, poor lonely Martha, has an interesting connection to the Crystal Palace Dinosaurs... 🧵

black and white photo. Martha, looking to one side towards the camera, on a wooden-looking perch, looking to the camera against a blank background. her appearance is long, slender and upright.

#FrescoFriday 🏺 Herculaneum HQ of College of the Augustales: society of freedmen dedicated to imperial cult of Augustus. Shrine room likely held statue of emperor on pillar in blind arch w laurel wreath above. On right Hercules + River Achelous in dispute over Deianira. #Roman

Two walls of the shrine room of the College of the Augustales in Herculaneum. On left is a wide shallow arch with a plinth in the centre that once held a statue, which would have been framed by the square painting behind it. Also within the arch are 2 other faint paintings. On either side of the arch are further paintings of decorative objects, and above these are bands of darker paintings with ?animal figures. Above those two more rectangular ones, with architectural features. Another broad painting above the arch has mostly been removed. The background to this wall is an intense bright blue.
The right wall has a red background. The large main image is painted within a painted arch with three figures. To the left are two paintings: the one at the top shows a winged male driving a chariot with two horses.
The lower part of the image shows bare walls where plaster has been removed. The floor has the remains of opus sectile coloured marble flooring.

Ways to improve crop yields? Done. It's their #DeExtinction #DisInformation campaign to gain notoriety that I object to...
