On nature, Identity is the hardest process to achieve. Otherwise we by now had huge quantum computers and wouldn’t need fridges for food.

Well, this has been a long-awaited day- the first paper on our multicellularity Long Term Evolution Experiment (LTEE) is on the BioRxiv. Ever wonder how simple multicellular organisms evolve to become larger and more complex over thousands of gens? 1/35 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

What do you do when invited by the amazing @TobySpribille to contribute to a special issue of a Lichen journal, when you don't work on lichens? You accept, of course! @SFI_elibby and I show how lichens illustrate a often-ignored route to multicellularity: #article" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Dear readers of this educational channel. I've lost my dear wife this afternoon, my northern-star and my college sweetheart. Need to take a few days off. Hope to be back.

The people in charge of a cemetery near where I live have decided to let the vegetation grow this year. Good for biodiversity, but also remarkable how much more beautiful it is than its usual more manicured self. Curious to know what the plan is for the longer term.

Me: Oh another interactive visualization sigh. Let's see how disappointing it is... (this is very good! and I tend to be very critical of these things)

What does a Gaussian process "look like"?🧐 My take on interactive visualisation of #GaussianProcesses aims to help you intuitively understand prior and posterior kernel functions: infinitecuriosity.org/vizgp/ - would love to hear your suggestions for improvements! Made in #svelte

Ich bin 24 Jahre alt, ich bin #Jude, ich habe mein Judentum nie verheimlicht, habe/hatte politische Ämter inne, stehe teils im medialen Interesse und habe in meinem Leben sehr oft #Antisemitismus erfahren. Ein Thread 1/15

For @AlJazeera educated Westerners, equating Zionism with colonialism is almost axiomatic. To see the absurdity of this association please examine the five bullets listed on p.229 of ucla.in/2SxjgWH. Send them to @mehdirhasan and other Qatari spokespersons.

Wer Hass gegen Juden verbreitet, ist nicht für die unterdrückten Palästinenser, sondern betrügt alle. Palästinenser wollen ein friedliches Miteinander mit Juden und viele Juden fühlen beim Leid Palästinas mit. Antisemitismus ist eine historische Seuche europäischer Rassisten.

Today in 1964 BASIC made its debut, in an effort to take programming out of the world of machine language. Share if you're old enough to have gotten your start with it.

Principal Component Analysis is one of the most fundamental techniques in data science. Despite its simplicity, it has several equivalent forms that you might not have seen. In this thread, we'll explore what PCA is really doing! 🧵 👇🏽
