Back in November, Google announced 2.2 milllion new materials.
Today, a paper in Chemistry of Materials from Ram Seshadri and Tony Cheetham dismantles that claim

Introducing GNoME: an AI tool that helped discover 2.2 million new crystals. 💎
Crystals are found in everything from the chips powering our phones to solar cells creating clean energy.
The model also better predicts the stability of new materials. 🧵 dpmd.ai/GNoME-AI

We have been using Golden Gate cloning since the @cidar_lab MoClo toolkit came out; since then, loads of new kits and standards have been published. @JasBird1223 and @andrewgiachino have a new review out surveying the current state of Golden Gate: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

Interesting new paper on enzymatic DNA synthesis with engineered TdT. They characterized 14 TdTs homologs from vertebrates and found sparrow (ZaTdT) had >18x higher catalytic activity compared to mouse TdT... 1/n pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021…

Maybe the most pernicious thing to happen to modern society is letting people think “doing your own research” into complex subjects equates to “critical thinking.”
Every aviators baseball hat goatee whiteboy discovered flat earth theory videos and thinks he’s the new Galileo.

In Ep 87, "Nate Silver & the Crisis of Pundit Brain " we examine the moral utility of incessant poll watching & discuss how politics-as-sport journalism infected the political discourse & turned us all into amoral game theorists. W/ guest @NathanJRobinson

🧵: Yesterday we revealed how YouTube enabled advertisers to build ad campaigns around hate terms.
Today we reveal how YouTube blocked advertisers from building ad campaigns around social justice terms such as “Black Lives Matter.”
