Sending this to university IT the next time they complain about the computers being used with old equipment
Delta, United, American Airlines flights are all grounded right now.
The reason Southwest is not affected is because they still run on Windows 3.1.

OMG @Nature just retracted one of the Verfaillie papers @UMNews, 4.5 years after I reported it.
And without letting me know 🤨

Third time I fix this monster ( FlowCam 3.0). Please don’t break again. Between that and defrosting the fridge, I felt like a technician again. #lab #labequipment #lablife #0writting #postdocInTransition

Symbiotic powder stretching arms 🙋♂️
Some lichens propagate by jointly packing a few algal symbionts in a fungal wrap so small to appear as a powder to the naked eye. After dispersal, they start growing fungal arms to embrace new grounds #lichens #soredia #symbiosis #cultures
Morning surprise of my Anabaena culture #bluegreenalgae #cyanobacteria

En un artículo espléndido, Lazcano devela la estatua de Mendel a través de un recorrido por los genetistas rusos partidarios de la genética mendeliana y sus trágicos desencuentros con una ciencia impuesta por la dictadura soviética.

Thailand deadly phytoplankton apocalypse currently unfolding. My fiction novel A New Earth was based on this scenario, developing on a global scale - now increasingly becoming our horrifying reality. This could wipe out all marine life #ClimateCrisis #ecology #amwriting

We have 2 spots in our IRACDA program for postdocs starting September 1, 2024! Any #phages2023 grad students defending soon and interested in teaching + biofilms/antibiotic resistance/bacterial interactions/uncharacterized gene function? Happy to chat! mniracda.umn.edu/
Attend and undergrad symposium and be asked by two students if I was an undergrad presenting too. I guess I need to grow grey hair. #postdoc

Tips for success in #academia:
* Don't aim for perfect. Or good. Or accurate. Just publish
* Don't do what you think matters, do what gets funded
* Don't be interdisciplinary
* Don't criticise anyone's work, even if it's baaad
* Don't be a woman, or black, or (worst of all) both
