Matt Padula @mattpadula.bsky.social · 13/06/2026This US team will make the tournament infinitely more interesting. If they keep playing like that, they'll go deep in tournament. If Australia remembers how to finish moves, they'll likely win. 🫣 010
Matt Padula @mattpadula.bsky.social · 13/06/2026And to keep the cup in here.... The result in Canada vs Bosnia was probably what was deserved. Entertaining football. 000
Matt Padula @mattpadula.bsky.social · 13/06/2026US were surprising. Beautiful attacking football and in complete control. Paraguay were pretty crap but because the US gave them zero opportunities. As an Australian, I am now worried about the upcoming match. Tomorrow's match with Turkey is now critical. 110

Some cost, some (temporary) loss in prestige perhaps. No one goes to jail. This is not the case here. This is more akin to the Theranos or VW emission scandals. And people did go to jail for these. 0105

Matt Padula @mattpadula.bsky.social · 09/05/2026Yeah. I'm struggling understanding whether the way DIA-NN output is further processed by others is leading to poor interpretations cause "bad" data is ignored in the quest for big numbers. The more I learn, the lazier I think people are. It's not the tech, it's poor understanding of the tech. 020
Matt Padula @mattpadula.bsky.social · 30/04/2026I was surprised how much space was dedicated to 2D-PAGE and that it supports the process of Integrated Top Down Proteomics as a way of characterising proteoforms without stating it. 220

Matt Padula @mattpadula.bsky.social · 20/02/2026I prefer to normalise sample load before LC-MS/MS than rely on software to fix lazy sample preparation. I have a horrible feeling that a lot of single cell proteomics work is going to be proven wrong in a few years when we figure out how to normalise sample loads. 030
