An analysis tracking E.coli in fluctuating nutrient conditions maps out a reaction-network architecture that integrates environmental history to tune future growth, showing how even the simplest organisms implement complex computational strategies. 🔗 go.aps.org/4tyo7GL

@LucaAmb That said, even a “small inconsequential slip” in a paper raises broader concerns ( at least to me). A ghost citation or a careless plagiarism makes me question how rigorously the work (not just the writing, but the science itself) was checked.

@LucaAmb If that was your original point, I do agree with you that it is rather matter of debate if penalising all authors is a good thing or not ( ideologically, I do believe that the entire team must be held accountable but I do respect opposite side of the argument).

A lifetime arxiv ban (arxiving after pubs is meaningless) can completely wreck someone career Doing that for a single slip unconsequential slip on an otherwise good paper is completely reckless Society is changing fast, we need to support people. Not punish them.

Terence Tao - "AI tools are like taking a helicopter to drop you off at the site. You miss all the benefits of the journey itself. You just get right to the destination, which actually was only just a part of the value of solving these problems." Judit Polgar - "I always felt that intuition is very important in chess, but I get my intuition through my experience. And many times I think that this is the biggest danger for youth, that they don't have the experience because they don't spend enough time doing." Elites from two different fields voice the same opinion. [1] theatlantic.com/technology/202… [2] archive.is/mv2FB

A 3D bubbly vertex model suggests that the curvature of epithelial tissues naturally leads to cell bulging and extrusion at topological defects. The results are supported by experiments in spherical mouse colon organoids. 🔗 go.aps.org/4vXj6Kx

PhD supervisor: What's wrong with your data? Mum: What's wrong with you? Therapist: What's wrong with your life? Predatory journals: Dear Eminent Professor,

The use of primary energy on the vertical axis is an old trick by the fossil fuel industry to mislead people into thinking that one unit of fossils = one unit of renewables. In fact, one unit of primary energy for wind or solar electricity is the equivalent of three units of fossil fuels for electricity. Another trick is to pretend we need all those fossils if we switched to renewables. In fact, if we switch to renewables, 12% of the fossil fuel energy disappears because that is how much energy is used to mine-transport-refine fossil fuels+uranium for energy, and we wouldn't need to do that anymore A third trick is to pretend we need so much energy if we go to all electricity powered by renewables. In that case, because EVs use 75% less energy than gasoline/diesel vehicles, heat pumps use 75% less energy than combustion heating, etc., energy demand goes down another 42%. In sum, this plot illustrates the real story of where we are and where we need to go. The proper metric is end-use energy, not primary energy. web.stanford.edu/group/efmh/jac… and here's the paper web.stanford.edu/group/efmh/jac…

@IndVsStupidity @mosquitobatman @vinit_shenoy x.com/The_Rushikesh/… Okay I assume that you are a person of your words!

@mosquitobatman @vinit_shenoy Another 1000 from my side as well

Honest and open ask. Show me the exact verse in Manusmriti that refers to Sati, that asks the wife to die in a pyre or immolate herself after the husband's death. I'll gpay you 1000 rupees. I'm being very serious here.

@mosquitobatman Many things that people define as "hinduism" are later add-ons : added by upanishads and puran. So yess, if your argument is that "sati is not hinduism" then most of the hinduism that we know right now : isn't actually hinduism.

@mosquitobatman This brings us to the much more complex discussion of is sati pratha hinduism? Lord krishna / Lord rama isn't mentioned in vedas. Nor bhakti ( Vedas in fact strongly encourange ritualistic prayers and explicitly shuns bhakti-type aaradhana).

This study applies active gel theory to myosin isoforms to demonstrate their complementary roles for #CellMigration, highlighting the importance of isoform-specific molecular details to understand behavior of the whole cell. Check it out: go.aps.org/47giRQG

A side-by-side comparison shows how six types of vertex models for living tissues exhibit similar mechanical behavior, with stiffening governed by cell shape — suggesting the rigidity transitions and viscoelastic responses of these models are universal. go.aps.org/44bmANB

Hand down, the favorite teacher I never had. The sense of wonder and humility Prof. Balki creates through his lectures! Few lectures leave such a lasting impression.

Jayant Narlikar is no more. While his contribution to Astrophysics was extraordinary, his contribution to popularising science & improving scientific temper in our society was exemplary. Indian science is poorer.
