Postdoc position on drug resistance evolution in Montpellier, France

I have some exciting news (again!). I got money from the region (Occitanie) to hire a postdoc (and later an engineer / technician) to work on drug resistance evolution in malaria (P. faciparum) and…

Sometimes I charge at public charging points just because it offers me the best parking spot. I then view the extra cost per kWh (vs at home) as "premium parking cost"

For the people at the back: Long-haul flights are less efficient because of the extra fuel needed to lift the extra fuel needed to fly the extra distance into the air. Finding a way to make a plane fly 2500 km further is just the same as making sure the fire does reach Bordeaux next time around.

Inderdaad! Ook in Amsterdam zijn er betere voorbeelden te vinden (Nieuwezijds Voor, bijv.). Ik heb vooral een probleem met het geschetste beeld dat er in NL bijna geen auto's rijden. Goed, het is beter dan in de meeste buitenlandse steden, maar dit gaat tegenvallen als mensen dit beeld krijgen.

Voor "kijk hoe Amsterdam een prachtige fietsstad geworden is" is het echt een slecht gekozen voorbeeld... Dat fietspad houdt precies bij dat busje op, en er kan daarna blijkbaar gewoon legaal op straat geparkeerd worden, waardoor de fietsers zich tussen de auto's en trams moeten drukken.

We're on a long trip in our EV, and more than ever before, non-EV drivers are (literally) lining up to ask questions about charging speed and costs. Not a lot of questions about range this time... I guess it's a matter of priorities.

Cool graph, particularly from the point of view of the physics of accelerating / regenerative braking. One question though: what's the basis of the (regression) lines through the data points? Especially for ICE-petrol it looks really weird, with most of the data points below the line.

This motherfracker wants us to prove a negative. In science, you can prove a negative about causation by showing the causal pathway does not exist. “Vaccines do not cause autism” has been proven in every scientifically meaningful sense. Read on. Thread [1/9]

The CDC updated its vaccine page to claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is "not evidence-based" and studies were "ignored." This is an outrage. Decades of research have found no link. This isn't science, it's RFK Jr. using the CDC as propaganda. Children will die because of this.
