She clearly learned nothing from her NFT grift hobby, which did not turn out well https://gizmodo.com/reese-witherspoon-seems-to-have-forgotten-how-well-her-nft-predictions-went-2000653047


it’s not about selling it as a product. it’s about determining what molecular pathways are interchangeable between plants, fungus and animals.


They synthesize a ton of stuff with bacteria these days! Bacteria are really good at making almost any compound you can think of! I think with this study, part of the novelty was harnessing multiple molecular pathways in animals, fungus and plants, all with with analogs in a single plant. A lot of the paper was about discussing the different enzymes available in the plant, like a kind of toolkit that just had to be tweaked


Yes, this is basic research, which generally starts with common model organisms that many labs have access to. This increases reproducibility of the early results. The study mentions expression of the relevant genes and proteins in the buds as well, and also calls out one of the pathways in tomato, so perhaps the next step could be to test it in other nightshades and their fruit


They used an Australian wild tobacco that is widely used in genetic research, so not the American domesticated tobacco https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicotiana_benthamiana


I started with Raspberry Pi and Arduino for a scientific project that later became a published paper. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0278752
Now I have a couple Pis and ESP32s around the house doing all sorts of jobs, and am managing Docker-hosted shiny dashboards at work


It’s just a bad fuel in every way. This administration is trying to coerce us to use it

It would be nice if they change the Office app back to its old name, rather than M365 Copilot or whatever insane nonsense they picked. They should also review their corporate culture, and how the way they set performance rewards leads to insane unintended consequences across the company.
I ate a lot of good food when I visited the UK. Honestly anyone who claims <place> has only bad food has a skill issue.


I think LLMs are fine for specific uses. A useful technology for brainstorming, debugging code, generic code examples, etc. People are just weary of oligarchs mandating how we use technology. We want to be customers but they want to instead shape how we work, as if we are livestock


If you’re familiar with the controversy around the Honey coupon addon, there are a lot of parallels in terms of privacy, ethics etc.


They list Jevon’s paradox under ‘see also’
