Interesting SEC as well. Hint: putative lectin binder.

For-profit journals are supposed to improve research quality, yet they're perversely incentivized to churn out whatever they can monetize. This was happening before AI (see Strain: bit.ly/43gJPUM), and AI will make it worse.

It's insane that we volunteer our time to help them do so.

Ever since this observation, still haven’t found a pattern
And here it is! Base1 DNA sequence was derived from a protein sequence derived from a deposited, but unpublished PDB. It was codon optimized for Ecoli from two vendors (well only 1 at the start). Clearly, the Base1 sequence or its mutants show little expression from either vendor. Same conditions.

No. I don’t feel like I need to do more than I did before. Nor do I do this on any other similar social media. It should just be easy and works, without being intrusive or nasty.

That sounds slightly less scientific :) hallucination has a balance of just random but also truth. Kind of like real dreams

This is most important when I’m scrolling and want to stumble on to interesting papers and findings.

I also understand the moment they make more of an algorithm it’ll be gamed

I think everyone has their reasons and brain sanity and safety is one of the most important. Personally I just don’t find the critical mass nor the type of ephemeral (yet algo forced) connections. Here you have to look to connect vs being fed potential connections.

I think the word itself already gives negative vibes, but red flag level?

Most useful paper I read today
