Getting the pre-triathlon jitters.

Another great evening geeking out on science and automation with fellow biotech nerds. Thanks for what you do for the community @indbio and @vandontweets!

A preprint of my postdoc work is finally live! 🥳 We push the boundaries of synthetic biology in plants with a huge collection of new tools for constructing/tuning synthetic genetic circuits in plants. We use these circuits to engineer root structure 🌱 https://t.co/XEMvwJ10PX

You can track the location of ships in real-time. It's all public data. https://t.co/NHFPmhxuPt

Super cool!

In biology, atoms and molecules are at the bottom of everything.

Electromagnetic radiation is MASS-LESS. It just kinda happens. Never realized how weird that was.

[Mark Zhang @markazhang]

Electromagnetic waves differ from mechanical waves in that they DO NOT REQUIRE A MEDIUM TO PROPAGATE. Wait what?????

Love how much work they put into the aesthetics of this RL environment!

[Google DeepMind @GoogleDeepMind]

Reinforcement learning typically trains & tests agents on the same game. New work shows how our team trains generally capable agents on huge game spaces, resulting in agents that generalise to held-out test games, & learn behaviours like experimentation https://t.co/fQ9UrOFkMb 1/

Honored to be moderating this fireside chat with two giants of the biotech world! Please join us for what I'm sure will be a fascinating discussion about COVID-19, mRNA vaccines, and what one says to friends who ask for free samples... 🙂

A short essay on the surprising intersections between applied R&D practices at experimental restaurants and Apple, inspired by @vaughn_tan’s lovely The Uncertainty Mindset.

I was looking forward to this episode with @profplum99 on @ErikSTownsend's new Smarter Markets podcast, and they delivered big time!

Some takeaways 👇

[Venkatesh Rao ☀️ @vgr]

If you write fiction, you have to choose names for characters and places even if they are not critical to the story.

If you do engineering, you have to choose names for variables, and details like shaft diameters even if specific bindings don’t matter.

Therein lies a rhyme.
