@tcarpenter216 httpgd is your best friend for a graphics device.
Tried it out pre copilot integration with RStudio. Overall, mid experience. IMO, the Rstudio GUI to see the global environment is way better. VScode useful if you have projects that require additional language compilers etc.

@WiringTheBrain Even at a more fundamental level, how do people conceptualise cell differentiation without epigenetics? I wonder if people have a kind of Aristotelian essence conception of different cell types

@C_Kavanagh You reckon Sociobiology was the nail in coffin for the discipline split? Or that it was more reflective of already present splits in the discipline?

There's a sweet spot (4-6g). Too little bad. Too much bad.

@GurusPod Weinsteins having identically high scores is a huge win for behavioural genetics

@Rob_Paul_Juster @LiisaGalea @jordanmarrocco @ShanskyLab @MitoPsychoBio @whatishealth21 @LupienSonia @MarinMarieFran1 @EinsteinLabUofT The peaks and AUCs across the day will be different for endo vs exo with the route of admin. Creating curves for hormone in plasma/saliva across time would require lots of samples over time, but not impossible.

@Rob_Paul_Juster @LiisaGalea @jordanmarrocco @ShanskyLab @MitoPsychoBio @whatishealth21 @LupienSonia @MarinMarieFran1 @EinsteinLabUofT Hmmm...I feel like endogenous and exogenous bioidentical hormones would have the same mass making it difficult to disentangle with mass spec.
Maybe you could look at direct precursors that should be present if the hormone was synthesized endogenously vs exogenously admin'd.

[Conall Mac Cionnaith @conallmacc]

@Rob_Paul_Juster @LiisaGalea @jordanmarrocco @ShanskyLab @MitoPsychoBio @whatishealth21 @LupienSonia @MarinMarieFran1 @EinsteinLabUofT Rob, do you want to distinguish between bioidentical hormones, like measure 17b Estradiol and be able to tell endogenously produced from exogenous administered?

@ellegist Orange juice is for children or pirates with scurvy. Consequently, mimosas are a waste of perfectly good wine.

@lastpositivist Is measuring things alone enough to be a science?
If so, we'll soon be asking whether economics is a science....

@ArthurCDent One NYT article and everyone starts thinking their headaches are caused by MSG in Chinese food.
No one says the same about parmesan.
Charlatans.

[Conall Mac Cionnaith @conallmacc]

@ArthurCDent The umami is key. Don't let the MSG naysayers say otherwise.

[Conall Mac Cionnaith @conallmacc]

@ArthurCDent Highly recommend adding some gochujang to that sauce.
