Has anyone else noticed recent bugs with MyNCBI filters? There seems to be some pretty bad unexpected behaviour.

I have finally, after many months, finished the complete Diary of Samuel Pepys. Monumental. What a singular piece of work. It's impossible to compare against anything else.

One of the dumbest self-owns of Google for researchers is this: paste a research paper title into the google search bar. The paper will be the top hit, and it will indicate the google scholar citation count, but will not provide a google scholar link to follow the citations.

As an undergraduate who loved physical chemistry and was just starting biology, I thought the Meselson-Stahl experiment was the coolest thing ever. It was so simple in its application of physical theory and experiment to prove a biological truth that it was perfect. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/07/science/franklin-w-stahl-dead.html?unlocked_article_code=1.U08.z4MF.pff0m1poIH25&smid=url-share

Today I'm taking the lab for a social outing on a boat, and have worked hard to fit in. Should be seamless. https://media.tenor.com/48Mir4zZquAAAAAC/meme.gif?hh=359&ww=498

Very interesting and appealing paper for many reasons. So far my only critique is the use of paperpile for links to references. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Who is fact-checking Trump's fake trade numbers country by country? #Singapore doesn't impose a tariff on US imports and has *never* run a trade surplus with the US, but Trump imposed a 10% tariff based on a fabricated 10% tariff on US exports to Singapore.

Singapore, an island nation of < 6 million people, has sent an 80 person team from its civil defense, while the US has sent nothing. [contains quote post or other embedded content]
