The methanogen core and pangenome: conservation and variability across biology’s growth temperature extremes
"Increased methanogenic growth temperature is associated with reduced genome size, and thermotolerant organisms...have larger core genome fractions, suggesting that genome size is governed by temperature rather than phylogeny. "

It’s hard to express just how massive a release Safari 16.4 is for web developers.
Last night, I was reading replies web developers posted on Twitter back in 2021, when I asked what developers need most from WebKit — and the vast majority of things you asked for have now shipped.
What is your favorite feature that just shipped in Safari 16.4?? What will you do with it?

How Dust Affects the World’s Health
NASA research finds that a combination of windblown dust and human-caused particle pollution was associated with nearly 3 million premature deaths in 2019.go.nasa.gov
Depending on the size and type of particles and where they reach in the atmosphere, dust can contribute to warming or cooling, and influence storms and weather events.
