Microscopes rock

@ylecun @julianboolean_ He (@julianboolean) sounds like the sort of guy who claims he can trace his ancestry back to Charlemagne with only two gaps.

@ylecun Trump's anti-growth policies make it even worse. We should be pursuing free trade, increased immigration especially high skilled immigration, increased R&D, more job training and deregulation of needless occupational licensing, and building more housing.

@ScienceMagazine Perhaps if the 30 to 50 something white male staff ‘scientists’ weren’t whiny little bitches pissed off at the world because they didn’t make professor, people would treat them better.

@8teAPi In other words you talk a lot shit.

Muted.

@haider1 When pondering about the effects of technological revolutions on the labor market, listen to economists who have studied the effects of past technological revolutions on the labor market.
Never listen to computer scientists.

@dr_alphalyrae If Bill Gates moves into the neighborhood, inequality goes way up, but should I be less happy?

[microRoc @microRoc]

@jon_d_doe You sound like a real jackass.

This Stanford Professor encourages PIs to flood the unpaid, all volunteer NIH review system with past, rejected grants.

Not only is a burden on reviewers, resubmitting rejected grants as new AO grants violates NIH policy unless the grant is substantially revised.

[microRoc @microRoc]

@MichaelLinLab Reviewing (and writing) crappy grants is a waste of everyones’s time too. No way anyone can put a quality grant every three weeks.

[microRoc @microRoc]

Shameful post that essentially accuses a former NIH official of racism.

[Drug Monkey @drugmonkeyblog]

Lauer is super concerned about the demoralizing impact of low success rates...now that it is white folks being affected https://t.co/ciEl94XghU via @drugmonkeyblog

[microRoc @microRoc]

@drugmonkeyblog And you are essentially publicly accusing Lauer of being a racist. Shame on you. I hope he sues.

[microRoc @microRoc]

@drugmonkeyblog I sit on review panels. There is NO WAY reviewers are saying to themselves, “Eh. This person is black. Screw ‘em.” We don’t even know the race in most cases.

It’s not surprising you subscribe to discredited Ibram X. Kendi theories of equality of outcome given your other posts.

[Anshul Kundaje @anshulkundaje]

Nothing to see here, other than the 💪 of people of diverse origins & ancestry MAKING AMERICA GREAT, just as they have since it's inception.

This is our strength. Those who don't see it are simply blinded by hate & manipulated by propaganda.

[Prachee Avasthi @PracheeAC]

Fantastic. The momentum among private funders to disallow journal fees continues to build. @NIH should follow suit.

“In the coming 1-2 years, HHMI will seek to replace APC payments from HHMI lab budgets with centralized support of publisher service fees, including transparent peer review services for preprints.”

@drugmonkeyblog What’s suicide is pursuing DEI-like policies such as imposing gender and race requirements. That didn’t work out too well in 2024, did it?

Do you want MAGA to win in 2028? Neither do I. Therefore pick the most qualified and electable candidate and play to win.

[microRoc @microRoc]

@JamesCantorPhD Very true. It’s thus unfortunate that science is hosted at universities, nearly of which have allowed their liberal arts departments to become so politically polarizing that science is caught up in the political storm by association.

[microRoc @microRoc]

@GrantObi Looks like a new fangled microscope objective for temperature controlled immersion imaging. I may be biased though.

[Ruxandra Teslo 🧬 @RuxandraTeslo]

Good article in @WSJ. Why does everyone hate pharma companies? They are literally the most "useful" companies, yet continously vilified. It boggles the mind.

Of all RFK Jr's dangerously wrong opinions - his attack on HPV vaccines is the worst (and that really is saying something)

HPV vaccines like Gardasil PREVENT cancer - so effectively that cervical cancer is on the way to ELIMINATION in places like Scotland, Sweden and Australia.
