AI agent goes nuts on open source maintainer after having its pull request denied. This is a pretty insane story. Open source development as we've been used to for the last few decades is likely over. 1/

A French judge explains how Trump sent people from the US Embassy to try to intimidate her during Marine Le Pen's trial for embezzlement — something they've done to other judges around the world
Dear Americans:
When you say "The Republicans won't stop Trump and there's nothing we can do", please understand that the rest of us hear "Sorry you may have to fight WW3 against us but it is what it is".

Tumblr post by aylwyyn228: "My PhD research was focused on grief in the 19th century. I can tell you exactly how much they would have wanted modern medicine. I've read so many accounts of people writing about how they would have done anything to save their children, their spouses, their siblings. Mothers and fathers who sat up all night praying that their baby would see the morning. People giving huge sums of money to quack doctors in the hope that they could save their wives. Mothers writing about how they would do anything to not leave their children alone. One father after the loss of his fifth child in a month retelling how he had wanted to go outside and scream, but that he was too tired, so he lay down on the dining room floor instead. After I read all that it feels like an insult that anyone in the modern world would turn down vaccines, when for thousands of years countless people would have given everything they had for the opportunity to save their loved ones."

mitochondria from bipolar patients are closer to the nucleus in these images; control patients' are spread out further
15 years in the making, we confirmed that mitochondria - the powerhouse of the cell - have an unusual localization in patients who experience psychosis (including schizophrenia and bipolar disorders). You’ll never guess what kind of patient cells we used to make this discovery… 🧵

At least this prime piece of absurd provincial meddling in city affairs for the sake of pandering to a suburban electorate, which threatened to be a huge step back, is now off the table.
Congrats!
New in @natbiotech.nature.com: a team led by scientists at MSK and University of Toronto have developed a new platform to facilitate the study of RNA-biding proteins (RBPs) across hundreds of species of plants, insects, and animals.
Meet Jernej Ule (@ulelab.bsky.social) and Ben Blencowe, who set up the Brain RNA Regulatory Networks satellite lab here at the Crick.
We spoke to Ben and Jernej about their research into RNA auto-gated vectors and their potential applications in gene therapy.
