Very excited to share our
@TrendsEcolEvo review paper on #punctuated_evolution: a pattern of long-term stability interrupted by dramatic changes. A thread on the origins of rapid change, from large #extinctions to socio-technological #disruption.🌍🧬🛠 cell.com/trends/ecology-evolut…
in reply to Sergi Valverde

Takeaway: #punctuated_evolution evolution isn't confined to the past. It's happening now, in our rapidly changing world. By recognizing complex evolutionary patterns, we can better anticipate and adapt to present and future challenges.

The road towards publishing this paper has been complex and punctuated; the trip only made possible by the collaborative efforts of a fantastic team! Salva Duran-Nebreda, @AndrejPaleobio, @bvidiella, Niles Eldredge, Alex Bentley and Mike O'Brien.


Cool new feature in Seqera: Containers!

You type in a bunch of conda packages, it will either a) give you a container that has all of these packages and their versions and nothing else or b) build you that container.

Nicer reproducibility! Don't need to install 500 conda packages with the correct versions when you can just download one container with them all

Those are nice clouds! Did you use a polarizer to get that tone of sky?
in reply to Eugen Rochko

@Gargron Thank you! No polarizers here. I learned that clouds look best when there is a darker area in the frame (like the roof). Maybe it's how I expose or how I mastered my scanner (or both), but it's extremely hard to get a proper picture if it's only clouds in the frame (in most cases).

I was sad to find a surprising lack of visual scripting apps for Linux. Apple's Shortcuts app is very powerful and can be incredibly useful. It's not like we don't have the technical ability to make something similar.

So I started working on one myself :blobfoxfloofcofe:

Kind of as a birthday present (or an excuse to go out) @Andrew Pam and I went to the Art of the Brick Lego Exhibition. It was a fascinating experience. The amount of work that went into each piece was clearly considerable. If you have a chance to go, I would say that it is worth it. Just don't read the artist statements! They had me facepalming and whincing on a regular basis.

The animal room, which includes the two gorgeous polar bears, was my favourite.
The zebra people were probably the most aesthetic work.
The rainbow people have been a favourite with visitors!
The triumphal man and a few others in the room it shared all reminded me of Eastern European art under Soviet rule. I felt they could easily have had titles like: "Man Lifted by the State!"

It looks like you got a shot of milkweed at the base of the tree. It’s a very important part of the ecosystem that supports the Monarch butterfly. A lot of folks in California are growing it in gardens as a conservation effort. We currently have 3 pupae in our front yard (we’ll have several dozens by the end of summer).

Love Big Basin! The Forest of Nisene Marks in Aptos is also a great location for beautiful pictures.

There's yet another open letter from the AI safety crowd. If they want more people to take them seriously, they need to get more specific

platformer.news/tuesday-newsle…

in reply to Casey Newton

I think the people behind the letter unequivocally subscribe to the idea that the current LLM technology is a path to AGI. It's important to question that assumption. That's the biggest disconnect for me when reading it. Such an assumption directly serves the interests of OpenAI and other LLM companies.
