A comparative analysis of bat genomes, including five newly assembled chromosome-scale genomes, provides insights into the diversification of horseshoe bats and reveals molecular adaptations with a potential role in antiviral immune response.Nature
Let us make it clear to the People - this is not cost cutting. This is destruction of American institutions built over decades, this is vandalism, this is revenge firing of skilled employees and expertise.
Real cost cutting requires planning, financial analysis, transparency, dialogue and surgical instruments, not machetes.
This is a hostile takeover of the U.S. govt. by a bunch of wealthy lunatics, who are seeking power and wealth for themselves and no one else.

Can I get a sanity check on something?
If you're reviewing a new handheld gaming device like the Legion Go S, would you benchmark it against other handhelds like the Steam Deck and ROG Ally, or, say, a bunch of expensive gaming laptops instead?
Because that's what PC World did, and I'm equal parts baffled and angry.
As far as this review goes, I mean, at least pick ONE handheld to compare it against that isn't twice as expensive, doesn't have a dedicated GPU, and doesn't consume 5x the power? ๐

The 80-year-old partnership between the federal government and research institutions has made the U.S. the leader in scientific innovation. But now a proposed funding cut threatens the arrangement.
Although it is framed as a simple cost-cutting move, it is part of aggressive actions from the administration that have shaken the scientific and medical establishment.

Fedora threatened with legal action from OBS Studio due to their Flatpak packaging
If there's one thing you can always count on in the Linux world it's that packaging can be a nightmare. The OBS Studio team are not happy with the Fedora folks due to Flatpak problems and threatened legal action.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
I've used Fedora a bit since Arch became too tedious for my extremely occasionally usage and the one thing that stood out to me as being legit bad was the packaging landscape. Felt like everything I wanted to do required a different repo and the whole process was completely opaque at the UI "package manager" level.
Feels very much a situation based on what suits the devs rather than users. And this seems to be the same!
