Another win for AI/machine learning at this year's @NobelPrize, this time for chemists using the tools to predict how proteins fold. Machine learning has revolutionized scientific discovery, and the Nobel Committee clearly recognizes that. nobelprize.org/prizes/chemist…

I was told Big Bang is a British euphemism for something romantic that rhymes with ‘bore chasm’. Is that true?

@royalsociety *superseded It may be bad form to correct people's spelling on the internet, but this is the Royal Society. They should value error correction.

@thewheatgerm How do you all choose which food items get snack zones and which don't? Are there unreleased snack zone segments that just didn't fit the pacing of the episode? Can you be bribed or (lovingly) threatened into releasing these snack zones?

@LCTheater @JamieWaldorf @RobertDowneyJr For those on hold, phone support can't help with LincTix issues at the moment. (The phone wait was 35+ minutes, so it might be best to wait for the issue to get resolved.)

@arkh4m_ @LCTheater The purchasing system is broken for those of us who made it through the queue. I imagine they're waiting for it to be fixed to let more people through.

@LCTheater @JamieWaldorf @RobertDowneyJr Thanks! I'm now on hold. It seems my account also got locked for unusual activity (which is fair, I have now had five charges to my credit cards and each charge got refunded).

It is with great sadness that the Simons Foundation announces the death of its co-founder and chair emeritus, James Harris Simons. Jim was an award-winning mathematician, a legendary investor and a generous philanthropist. simonsfoundation.org/2024/05/10/sim…
