One of the most interesting articles I read recently. It appears that careful examination of available data shows that peaceful protests are powerful, and if they manage to engage more than 3-4% of a population, they almost always succeed. Looking forward to read the book!

I am convinced that the aquatic ape hypothesis was conceived by someone sitting in a hot tub on a cold winter day

Can anyone help me with this R6 problem? I have a clunky, but functional (clunctional) implementation of a vector-linked list hybrid, but I think I should try to implement it in R6. #rstats stackoverflow.com/questions/79...

While on my way to work I just heard one of the most amazing pieces of music I have ever heard in my life. Paganini Variations by Lutosławski, played by Gloria Campaner and Leszek Możdżer. I am mesmerized. #music #classicalmusic #paganini #dwojka www.youtube.com/watch?v=_i2L...

I rather fancy this photograph (even though you can see the dirty smudges on my cameras sensor...). European herring gull. #birds #photography

There were few famous scientists that I liked reading and talking to as much as Sydney Brenner. He never seemed arrogant, he was full of humor and irony, and never seemed to take himself too serious. This sets him quite apart from many with much lesser achievements.

Two weeks ago I was sitting on a bench enjoying my lunch when all of sudden I saw these cranes flying overhead. Right here, in the middle of Berlin, just next to the Hauptbahnhof. (Sorry about the quality of the photographs, I grabbed the camera without looking at the settings). #birds #berlin

I was just looking at some old photographs and found this one from 2008. Meet Uncle Willy, a street musician from Münster, Germany. In the little university town of Münster he was well known, and we used to spend some time listening to him every now and then. #photography #münster

This day didn't start well. I hate computers. Computing, programming and bioinformatics would all be so much nicer if we didn't have to actually use computers (thinking of The Patrician from Terry Pratchett).

I really like this thread by @drjr.bsky.social. There are many anthropomorphic, sugary claims like that one out there. In this thread, Jack takes a closer look at one of these. #science #wildlife #evolution #zoology
