@bruces Tell me if I'm missing something: This is a description of a new way to deterministically control gene expression, for the purposes of medical research, from the external stimulus of electromagnetic fields, by which I am guessing they mean somewhat longer wavelengths than UV, infrared, which have been used for this for years. It's a little weird the abstract says "EMF" given that UV/IR are already EMFs, but otherwise it isn't looking too tin-foil-hatty to my inexperienced eyes.

@gregeganSF@mathstodon.xyz I picked the wrong answer, but as a result learned about affine maps, so I feel like a winner.

@BBCRadio4@social.bbc Certainly brings a tear to the eye. Thanks for sharing. RIP Rick Mayall, another talent gone far too soon.

@katemorley Odyssey was the first AC game I properly played and I just fell in love with the scenery. I've got more games to play than time to play them, but I'll grab that DLC at some point.

@coreyspowell @ricardoharvin I just read your review. I can't disagree with it, and I like that you're holding it to a high standard. But... the review hurt! It was such an enjoyable movie. I think it stands above most other film's treatment of science and scientists, and it feels harsh for effectively calling out the existence of a hero here just because that hero happens to be a scientist. Many stories have heroes where in real life their efforts would be spread against a collaboration of people. I didn't feel that all the preparatory achievements were portrayed to be his character's anyway. It felt like a large collaboration behind the ship and the engine. And "villains" in this post I'm replying to felt a bit much, if it was for that one desperate action. Anyway, it was interesting reading your thoughts, thanks!
