@m_finzi @ShikaiQiu @yidingjiang @Pavel_Izmailov @zicokolter @andrewgwils Cool concept!
So, if I have a complicated datum (like the epiplexity paper) and a short explainer (like this thread) would adding them together reduce epiplexity? right? coz smaller LLM might be able to learn it..

Scared to share this after 10 freaking years of waiting but here we go: We found that temperature *perception* can change the next generations, even when “it’s just in the parents' head”. Read how C. elegans neurons control epigenetic inheritance! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@waitbutwhy It might be the other way around and what got you talking about the friend in the first place is your fb feed..
English

Was with a friend yesterday and we mentioned someone we both knew like 20 years ago but had totally forgotten about. During the convo, I searched for her on Facebook on my phone so we could see what she was up to now.
Then today my friend gets an email from Facebook about this person (“[name] added a new video”).
So either his phone mic was listening to our conversation and relayed the info to Facebook or Facebook noticed that his friend (me) had searched for this long-lost mutual connection. Either way, pretty creepy.

New paper alert about my favourite virus... the MS2 phage! This time we evolved MS2 to figure out how fast it evolves (hint - rapidly!) using deep learning . Beautiful work with @yoavram, @itush6, Moran Meir, @NadavB3nnun, @reemaburass.

@neuralreckoning Yes please!
And I hate to be that guy but blockchain technology could be genuinely useful in this sort of thing..

Now is an exciting time to be preparing a new open publishing platform (nmop.io). Feels like there's something in the air. We're finally reaching breaking point with big commercial publishers. 🎉
Hoping to start building it in earnest some time this year. 🤞

Neuroscientists shunning Elsevier, and Political Philosophers abandoning Wiley. Is the big 5 commercial publishing house of cards about to collapse? Where’s the free labour going to come from now? AI editors and reviewers? #EthicalPublishing

@Plinz @KordingLab Are they benign though?
Let's say in regard to climate change and health care in the US for example..
English

@KordingLab In Eastern Germany we hardly talked about anything else, it's a main staple of Marxist economic analysis, a major trope in dystopic SciFi, and intellectually salient too! Interesting question is why megacorporations seem to be more benign in practice than one would expect

@yudapearl @daoudkuttab This specific Israeli government 100% wants to hurt palestinians and do believe it is the way to 'win over the terrorists'.
They have been super straight forward about this and especially in the last couple of days..
English

Israelis have never expected Palestinians to "surrender"; they expected them to understand that the occupation is a temporary necessity; awaiting some acknowledgment that Tel Aviv is not a stolen land. None thus far. @daoudkuttab
Daoud Kuttab داود كُتّاب@daoudkuttab
Israelis Still Expect the Palestinians Will Surrender. Israelis still falsely hope that their military operations will extinguish Palestinian opposition to living under occupation. Lion's Den militant group is so popular -they dare to take on the Israelis haaretz.com/opinion/2023-0…
