Polyrhythm is the simultaneous use of two or more rhythms. Tapping exercises with the metronome are important to master the most basic of polyrhythms. While apparently easy, it's something that requires huge coordination [source: buff.ly/3Qk7vzD]

@f_dion It has a limited ability to describe individual elements such as columns, though this feature is still very preliminary

Can datacatalog track metadata down to the column, @oxpeter

Anybody knows of a #metadata/catalog tool that runs on postgres w/ web app 2 search & edit metadata, possibly with #flask or #django? need to transition from scripts to a UI app that's super simple to install and to use. #postgres #sql #python #datamanagement

Our new study shows that data availability statements are not very useful; 1670 (93%) authors who indicated that data are available on request either did not respond or declined to share their data with us. Journal of Clinical Epidemiology: doi.org/10.1016/j.jcli…

Graphic design has rules, and they work … 👀

@PianoNYC @ByTheWayBakery Wish I could have been there!

After 3 years, an in-person piano recital!

A really key finding is that fatigue and cognitive impairment were not statistically significantly different between hospitalized and non-hospitalized patients! This is a major point as the public assumes that non-hospitalized cases are "mild". #LongCovid 3/

Reframing the problems of honey bee health and sustainability. While Dr Shanahan recognises "the dangerous questions", and exhorts scientists to ask them, I suspect cultural inertia will prove a heavier beast to redirect than this article lets on.

I've been thinking about the reactions to @StevenSalzberg1's blog post in which he tries to explain immunology in 6 mins. (e.g. twitter.com/jallepap/statu…), & while much of what there is to say about it has been said, I think it's worth repeating some things. A 3pt.🧵about scicomm:

@lisafederer For every occasion :)

@lisafederer Seconded! I had this pinned on my wall for years as a philosophical reference to what you describe: XKCD.com/1205

When a cancer genomics paper (in a good journal!) says "We used the R program for normalization and data analyses," I get a sinking feeling that I cannot trust these results #bioinformatics_matters

Data Sharing and Management Snafu in 3 Short Acts youtu.be/N2zK3sAtr-4 via @YouTube A short Video shared by @MalvikaSharan in a presentation on Reproducibility and the role of data sharing #BOSSEvents #OpenScienceKE

"Pundits have urged people to “listen to the science,” as if “the science” is a tome of facts and not an amorphous, dynamic entity, born from the collective minds of thousands of individual people who argue and disagree about data that can be interpreted in a range of ways."

Wow! "For the first time, astronomers have captured solid evidence of a rare double cosmic cannibalism — a star swallowing a compact object such as a black hole/neutron star. In turn, that object gobbled the star’s core, causing it to explode and leave behind only a black hole"

@ben_hr I have abandoned Inbox Zero. I am ‘living with email’
