I had the pleasure of being the @PeerCommunityIn Ecology recommender for a handy “How to" #review #code for #ecologists and #evolutionary #biologists

by @EdIvimeyCook, @joelpick, Bairos-Novak, Culina, Gould, @DrMattG, @Ben_M_Marshall, Moreau, Paquet, Royauté, @ASanchez_Tojar, Silva, & Windecker

I'm looking forward to trying their tips! Particularly, these R functions/packages: identical, renv, set.seed

''Lymph nodes (LNs) are critical sites for shaping tissue-specific adaptive immunity. However, the impact of LN sharing between multiple organs on such tailoring is less understood. Here, we describe the drainage hierarchy of the pancreas, liver, and the upper small intestine (duodenum) into three murine LNs.''

#SCOTUS rulings for sale: New report reveals the depth of Clarence Thomas' corruption by conservative ultrawealthy billionaires. https://www.propublica.org/article/clarence-thomas-other-billionaires-sokol-huizenga-novelly-supreme-court

#OTD 10 August 1793 The Musée du Louvre is officially opened in Paris, France.

Quote of the day:
Take the coronation orb, which has been part of the regalia presented to kings and emperors from late antiquity. The orb represents the Earth, while the cross on top symbolises that the secular power was subject to the will of God. Presumably, if people in the Middle Ages had thought the Earth was flat, they would have presented their rulers with a diner plate instead.

ProPublica does it again:

“NEW: #ClarenceThomas’ 38 Vacations: The Other Billionaires Who Have Treated the #SupremeCourt Justice to Luxury Travel

The fullest accounting yet shows how Thomas has secretly reaped the benefits from a network of wealthy and well-connected patrons that is far more extensive than previously understood.” #SCOTUS

People associate Hawaiʻi with tropical conditions but rainfall has been decreasing for decades because of climate change, drying out the lush landscape and making it increasingly susceptible to wildfire damage.

Because of course he would. https://secondnexus.com/twitter-fined-trump-account-smith?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=infeed&utm_campaign=linkprogram

Hi everyone, #newhere, just moved from another instance. I am a computational biologist and lab manager at Arcadi Navarro's lab in #UPF #Barcelona. I am interested in evolutionary modeling, stochastic processes and #protein #evolution. Nice to be on ecoevo.

I’m not sure what’s more depressing

The fact a Supreme Court justice can be bought so easily

The fact that many people have access to Clarence Thomas on his “paid vacations”

The fact we have to multiply that by at least 38

Or the fact that it’s basically only one news organization that’s has been investigating this rampant corruption

https://www.propublica.org/article/clarence-thomas-other-billionaires-sokol-huizenga-novelly-supreme-court

Disgusting. Infuriating.

“During his three decades on the Supreme Court, Clarence Thomas has enjoyed steady access to a lifestyle most Americans can only imagine. A cadre of industry titans and ultrawealthy executives have treated him to far-flung vacations aboard their yachts, ushered him into the premium suites at sporting events and sent their private jets to fetch him — including, on more than one occasion, an entire 737.“

I don’t understand this. It feels so very very wrong for there to be wildfires in a lush paradise like Hawaii. Though I do know that the Big Island of Hawaii has many different ecosystems and climate zones… I don’t think fire is a normal thing there either.

Repost from climate historian M Herrera from the bird site:
“Historic #heatwave in #Japan, hundreds of records are pulverized.
80 records were broken yesterday, many more today. Yesterday highest Min. temperatures.

“…and today much worse. 31 all time records broken including 35.4C at Hakodate and up to 40.0C at Komatsu and hundreds records of highest Tmins. .
32.0C at Itoigawa is the highest minimum temperature ever recorded in Japanese climatic history.
Unprecedented”
