Internet friends, I’m thrilled to share our work out today in @Nature! We've developed a label-free, single-molecule method using high-finesse microcavities, enabling us to profile molecules in solution. 1/10 nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

say it with me: we want haptic feedback. we want tactile switches and dials. we dont want stupid touch screens that glitch, provide zero feedback, and force you to look at them. technology is stupid. modern engineers are stupid. can someone help silicon valley
If my next paper has a picture of a weird little guy in it this is why btw
The Codex Gigas is the largest extant medieval illuminated manuscript in the world, at a length of 92 cm. The manuscript was created in the early 13th century in the Benedictine monastery of Podlažice in Bohemia, now a region in the modern-day Czech Republic.
The story is that a monk procrastinated his task of copying the Bible. So on the final night the Devil came to him and said, “I will grant you the ability to finish this text if you include a picture of me.”

Single-molecule 3D reconstruction for structural proteomics--check out our latest work just published in JACS @J_A_C_S! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…
Fun that the code on screen in the last doctor who episode is just someone trying and failing to install a bunch of stuff
I don't ever want to buy a piece of tech made by a company who proudly talk about it as being part of their "ecosystem". Get out of here with that nonsense
My controversial pedagogy take is that whilst memorisation isn't as important as people used to think, the current characterisation of it as being totally pointless is an overcorrection in the wrong direction
