I randomly sample things on the Internet and often trace out business processes to see what companies are doing. Just now I was watching an Australian 60 Minutes about plastic recycling (lack of recycling) and at 6:39 it showed a dirty package of Skittles. I thought, “How hard would it be to send Mars Wrigley

Niko McCarty @NikoMcCarty The whole notion of “Write, Read, Edit” as some great driver of progress in biology is incredibly misguided. Yes, DNA sequencing and synthesis costs have fallen rapidly. What have we gotten for it? The vast majority of strains we make don’t work, because we don’t understand the https://pic.x.com/zt1nkt9spv Replying to @NikoMcCarty The

Baran Hashemi @Rythian47 How can we teach Transformers to learn and model Enumerative geometry? How deep can AI go in the rabbit hole of understanding complex mathematical concepts? We’ve developed a new approach using Transformers to compute psi-class intersection numbers in algebraic geometry. https://pic.x.com/xkkjgh1bke Replying to @Rythian47 Enumerative geometry is not “all mathematics”.

John Lindsey @PGE_John Our son Sean has been stationed with the U.S. Navy in Bahrain in the Persian Gulf. He mentioned that the humid heat there is almost indescribable, with dew points reaching the 90s. In other words, sweat doesn’t evaporate, making it nearly impossible for the body to cool down. x.com/US_Stormwatch/… Colin McCarthy @US_Stormwatch
