Today I'm thankful to Elon Musk for maliciously destroying the centralized public square that is Twitter, giving everyone a shining example why we should cap personal wealth to prevent abusive billionaires from undermining the public good, and an impetus to move to decentralized social media services like Mastodon (or whatever better thing comes along next).

The fact that Russia is choosing to use its expensive, dwindling and hard to replenish supplies of precision-guided missiles to degrade and destroy the Ukrainian energy grid is a very good indication that they are not able to do so with (cheaper) cyber attacks.

Yet another reminder of the practical limitations of offensive cyber, or, at least, the limitations of Russian ability to conduct strategic offensive cyber attacks

I will start recruitment soon, but for now, I'm looking for
- a lab manager who will build the new lab with me (namely the central pillar of my Dresden lab)
- a postdoctoral fellow interested in comparing tissue mechanics of organoids across species.
Please reach out to me. 3/

Introductory post: I'm an entomologist/evolutionary biologist that's interested in the evolution of Hymenoptera 🐝 🐜 , in particular gall inducing/ parasitic wasps. Currently I'm a Marie Curie fellow at the University of Edinburgh, using phylogenomics 🧬 , community ecology 💻 , and morphological taxonomy 🔬 to figure out who's who, and who eats who in tritrophic systems consisting of 🌹 -> 🌹gall wasps->their natural enemies.

Made this waterfall shader 3 years ago now. I think it was also my most liked tweet 😳 💧

Anti-vaxxers are weaponizing this headline to wrongly claim vaccines don’t work.

COVID minimizers dismiss this fact as a statistical quirk when a majority are vaccinated.

Both miss the nuanced truth; vaccines work, but we still need layered protections to prevent more deaths.
