Launched #20YearsAgo today, ICESat's laser altimeters measured the thickness of the Antarctica and Greenland ice sheets for 7 years. Its measurements, along with ICESat-2's, showed that from 2003ā2019, Greenland lost ~200 gigatons of ice per year.

The Arkin Lab at University of California, Berkeley engineered edible microbes (spirulina) to produce acetaminophen (Tylenol). This is an impressive proof-of-concept for "small molecule production derived from CO2, H2O, and light in an edible host for bioavailable, oral drug delivery."

Hi everybody, Iām ready to unveil my year-end-holiday-hack project:
Meet Searchtodon: ***Private*** Timeline Search for Mastodon
It fills a gap that I have been missing over on Twitter as well: āI remember seeing this THING, where was that again?ā
It is built with privacy and consent in mind (pls see the FAQ), but is also *an experiment* to see if something like this is accepted by the larger Mastodon community.

There are parts to this paper I really like.
Primarily, it is the first I've seen to use the GTDB tree / taxonomy to perform a correctly phylogenetically-informed benchmark: hold-one-out phylum tests and random splits in the tree.
You can envision more possible train/test splits!
But this kind of phylogenetically constrained train/test splitting is crucial for any (meta)genomic benchmarking, and lack of it is why basically all past benchmarks were mostly bad

Why is Earth getting warmer?
The release of greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide, from human activities is responsible for the majority of climate change. In our atmosphere, these greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere, raising Earthās temperature.
#NASAEarth
How do we know Earthās climate is warming?
Itās not just us. Our partners at @noaa and other agencies and researchers around the world analyze the temperature records too. Their climate records show the same thing: Earth is warming significantly and rapidly.
