@MBTA You know a lot of people are still commuting at 10 am. This is getting really old every day

Blue Line: Delays of about 10 minutes while a maintenance train inspects the overhead wires between Airport and Wonderland. Trains may stand by at stations.

@MBTA Daily. Fix them

Blue Line: Delays of about 10 minutes due to a signal problem at Orient Heights. Trains may stand by at stations.

@MBTA No it hasn’t. There are currently over 100 people waiting at Wonderland while workers are on the tracks. Nothing has moved an inch in ages. Fix your damn signals!!

Blue Line Update: This delay has cleared.

@Nils_Not_ @CornellaLab @rsaeb2 7 is a beautiful complex. Congrats!

Here is our latest article on the chemistry of nickel. Super #naked nickel, sounds exciting doesn't it?! 😉 Thanks for another great stroy @CornellaLab and @rsaeb2! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Happy to share this perspective article now out in @Chem_CP, where Teddy Gerard, Pat Holland, and I dive into the fascinating bioinorganic chemistry of the Carbon Monoxide Dehydrogenase C-Cluster! @YaleChem doi.org/10.1016/j.chem…

The solar corona seen during the eclipse yesterday from Greenville, Maine.

Watch a replay of the moon's shadow traveling across the path of totality, seen from @NOAA’s #GOESEast satellite. #TotalEclipse #Eclipse #Eclipse2024, #TotalEclipse2024 #NOAATotalEclipse2024, #2024Eclipse

@NWSCaribou They passed over Greenville a bit ago, but crystal clear now!

The thin, high cirrus clouds (in lavender/purple in this loop) are dissipating over the state as we hoped as we get closer to eclipse time! Also getting very mild out: we are up to 57°F here in Caribou, easily the warmest day so far this year. #MEwx

@GracePanetti @JohnsHopkins @SchelterGroup @pchirik @ChirikGroup Congrats!!

@MtAdamsWA One of my favorite views ever was seeing Rainier from your summit!

Mt Rainier needs to blow itself off the planet So overrated 😴🥱😏🙄 Random thought 🤣

@ndchiappini How stable is it in air?

Excited to share another story co-authored with @SamNStonebraker, out now in @Orgmet_ACS! We follow a deactivation pathway of CyJohnPhos-bound Ni(0) species—resulting in C–P bond cleavage of CyJohnPhos. @uclachem pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Happy to share some of my PhD work now out in @Orgmet_ACS, co-led by @JudahRaab! Here, we study the off-cycle speciation of a dimeric CyJohnPhos-bound Ni(0) complex, which decomposes further via C–P bond cleavage. @uclachem @PrincetonChem pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Congrats to @Mue11erPatrick, @PDFinkelstein for a new general route to well-defined Ni(I) species using Ni(I)-phenolate complexes! Fantastic collaboration with Nils Trapp, Gunnar Jeschke and @BismutoLab. @InorgChem. pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102…

@morandilab @Mue11erPatrick @PDFinkelstein @BismutoLab @InorgChem Awesome study! Congrats!

Now in its final form @J_A_C_S! We report the synthesis and structural characterization of over 20 new Nickel(I) complexes and investigate their speciation and reactivity. Big shout out to @JudahRaab, Hootan, and Abby! @PrincetonChem @uclachem. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

@Pdorrestein1 @peiferlabunc Moreover, for the industry point, I’d argue that a bigger offense to being a good team player is not being willing to let a coauthor with equal contribution put their name before your own on their CV.

@Pdorrestein1 @peiferlabunc If we were computers that could weigh two names with asterisks equally, that’d be one thing, but a human briefly skimming through a CV will focus on order. So unless there’s an explicit prohibition of it (e.g. submission to government agency), it’s not immoral to do it (if equal)
