Funny to see this within historical context, post dictatorship Spain joined NATO with heavy criticism from the socialists (now in power) They then later won the elections and switched sides to support NATO They still had the common decency to throw a referendum that barely passed

Trump suggests kicking Spain out of NATO as a “laggard” — Finnish president left speechless During a meeting with Finnish President Alexander Stubb, Donald Trump said that Spain should be “kicked out of NATO” because it’s “falling behind on defense payments.” “Maybe you should

Both Mary Brunkow and Fred Ramsdell were at Celltech's laboratories in Seattle when they published the paper. Interestingly, Celltech was originally founded primarly by the UK goverment and eventually sold to a Belgian biotech (lol)

Congratulations to Mary Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell and Shimon Sakaguchi for this year's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. It also demonstrates the fairness of the prize, as Mary Brunkow is a Senior Program Manager (not a professor) at the @isbsci. https://t.co/DIGW0l7X81

most names are actually quite random though. e.g. TP53, named after something like "tumor protein with 53 kDa". My favorite trivia is that the actual molecular mass is not 53 but 44, just runs as heavier because of how many prolines it has.

A central mistake in biology was to name genes. This over-simplification made reconciling what is happening on the molecular level a mess - it's not rare to find reports of opposite mechanisms in different contexts, claimed involvement in dozens if not hundreds of different

interesting example, wondering how many RLN-like evolution events could we see at the molecular level where "design" and "optimal solutions" are harder to interpret

My meager education in biology and evolution gave me the mistaken impression that evolution optimized everything. But it didn't. One example is the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN). It goes from behind your ear, loops down below your aorta, and then back up to the voice-box 1/2

Is that how living in the EU will feel in the Age of AI? 🤔 @AIatMeta's new multimodal Llama, @Apple Intelligence, or @OpenAI's Advanced Voice Mode of ChatGPT are all currently restricted in the EU. There's a growing concern that this could lead to "two-speed AI" - more advanced

Sempre he pensat que una peça clau per a qualsevol nació que aspiri a tenir sobirania tecnològica és disposar almenys d'un proveïdor al núvol propi i competitiu. França té OVH, Xina Alibaba, Alemanya (T-Systems), etc. I com es veu a sota, està a l'abast d'algú com Lidl fer-ho.
