If you believe either that Franklin discovered the double helix, and / or Watson and Crick stole her data, ask yourself how you know this. Then take a read of this article.
OK, I have set up a Substack and posted an article there going into much more detail about Francis Crick and the poet Michael McClure. If the link between science and art is your thing, or you just like psychedelic poetry, have a read:
Lovely (paywalled) reviews of CRICK in New Scientist [https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg26835692-000-surprising-new-biography-of-francis-crick-unravels-the-story-of-dna/] & the Times [https://www.thetimes.com/culture/books/article/crick-professor-matthew-cobb-review-9bc6dv6hf]. 1/2

Historiantutkijana olisi täysin mahdotonta kuvitella skenaariota, jossa tutkimustulokset lytättäisiin vain sillä perusteella, että tutkija on yliopistosta tai laitoksesta x. Historiallisen argumentin ytimessä kun on primääriaineistosta johdettu todiste, ei ideologinen toiveajattelu.
Excellent thread from @chrislintott.bsky.social, but without knowing much (tho I do know about DMS on Earth) this was my assumption. The history of work on this planet and the difficulties involved, outlined upthread, only reinforce my doubts.
With the excitement about dimethyl sulfide in the atmosphere of K2-18b as unequivocal proof of extraterrestrial life, here’s the industrial process used for its manufacture:
2 CH₃OH + H₂S → (CH₃)₂S + 2 H₂O
Both methanol and hydrogen sulphide occur abiotically. 🧪🔭

Excellent letter in @thetls.bsky.social. A bit of perspective, pls!
I do not read anything in the Trump White House's appeal to the Supreme Court that would, as a practical matter, prevent the government from legally disappearing *anyone* to a foreign torture prison by "mistake" ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...
Can't say I "like" the logic, but I am positively surprised... theconversation.com/how-dramatic...

The Republicans hold majorities in both houses of Congress and the Supreme Court and hold the White House and they could pass basically whatever agenda they would care to enact, but they have instead decided on a unique strategy of letting someone unelected do crimes all over the federal government.
Unfortunately, so do we in the EU. Because we know UK...

There were always apologists who said "Don't be ridiculous, they didn't really mean that. There's no way they would do that."
People listened to those clowns. And now we're paying the price.

Any #medievalsky folks know who's working on Y pestis in 6th-C Britain, and/or migration, climate, and the recent aDNA work (Nature, 2022) suggesting in a span of 200 years the genes of people buried in parts of E Yorks changed from essentially insular Iron Age to >80% CNE? All pointers welcome!
