Proud to share that I successfully defended my #PhD #thesis on mathematical modeling and stochastic simulations applied to biomedical data. Many thanks to my research group @AppSysBio and the @LeibnizHKI. Grateful for this challenging time and excited for what is coming next!

Der portugiesische Schiedsrichter pfeift also weder Handspiel Nuno Mendes 🇵🇹 + gelb rot, noch Elfmeter nachdem Vitinha 🇵🇹 neves 🇵🇹anschießt hm?

#UCL #FCBPSG Sorry,aber das ist alles nur noch ein Witz… Der Arm geht in die Flugbahn&das diesmal sogar noch weit ausgestreckt auf Schulterhöhe & auch erst nachdem (!) der Ball geschlagen wurde. So schon 100-prozentig Elfmeter, aber erst recht im Kontext des Hinspiels–Wahnsinn!

🚨 UNACCEPTABLE SCENES IN PORTUGUESE FOOTBALL 😡 Clear and shocking footage shows FC Porto’s Alberto Costa spitting on Famalicão’s Sorriso while the opponent was on the ground after a foul in the 86th minute. A clear act of complete indiscipline and total lack of sportsmanship. This is NOT football. This shames the game. The Primeira Liga needs to wake up urgently. This season has been marked by controversy after controversy, impunity and chaos both on and off the pitch. The Disciplinary Council can no longer look the other way. Exemplary punishment must be handed out immediately — exactly as it would be for any other player. Enough with the “grey areas”. Fair play and respect for the opponent have to become the rule again. ⚽

UEFA. Dark. Evil. A corrupt football organization. Don't let them silence this one. Don't.
You'll never tell me these two aren't penalties. Apparently this is a competition where Ceferin brags about integrity and fairness. You're all corrupt thugs exploiting teams that can challenge Real Madrid. Dark people. nitter.cf/Citeh1894s/status/2034…

Unabhängig davon obs ein Foul war oder nicht (wars nicht) ist eine solche Argumentation eines Bundesliga-Schris absolut alarmierend. Nach der Logik muss ja jede Schwalbe in der ein Abschluss hätte erfolgen können ein Foul sein, hört der sich eigentlich selber zu?

Hoffenheim coach Christian Ilzer on the first penalty awarded to Bayern: "A clear wrong decision. There's no need to discuss it, everyone saw it. There was absolutely no foul. 75,000 people in the stadium were looking forward to a top match here. I feel a bit sorry for them that it turned into this game with one player less" Sporting director Andreas Schicker: "It's a pity that a top game was taken away from the fans in the stadium and at home by referee Stieler. In my opinion it was an offensive foul by Díaz. I have no understanding for that. We saw a game where many of the people involved on the pitch on both sides showed a great performance, but one [the referee] was overwhelmed"

Major cheat code in life: Respond to patterns, not individual events. One missed text means nothing. Ten missed texts means something. Don't overreact to single data points. Watch the trend. People tell you who they are over time. Believe the pattern.

When you get defensive about feedback, you fail twice. You fail to learn today, and you fail to encourage people to keep teaching you tomorrow. If you can't handle the truth, people stop telling you the truth. A key to growth is showing that you're coachable.

🚨Dear #scienceTwitter, As a #newPI trying to publish solid #microbiology #infectionbiology work while surviving unexpected government budget cuts, I need your help!😢 Do you have suggestions of journals a bit "under the normal radar" with reasonable #APCs? Thank you🙌🏻💚

2-line proof that LLMs can’t achieve superintelligence: 1. LLMs don’t learn out of distribution. 2. Superintelligence is out of distribution.

If your model fits perfectly, you perhaps missed reality — either by model overparameterizing or choosing the wrong data sample.

When experts are wrong, it's rarely because they're uninformed. It's often because they're overconfident. Certainty is the enemy of curiosity. In a turbulent world, doubt is a catalyst for clarity. If knowledge is power, knowing what you don't know is wisdom.

The most direct path to a fulfilling career is not to follow your passion. It's to follow your flow. Flow is the state of full absorption. When you're in the zone, you don't even notice that you're enjoying it. Intrinsic motivation lies in the activities where time disappears.
