An actual LabLeak is happening in real time and the people involved are standing up and saying there is a real risk it happens…crickets from the crowd.
I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

If this is true then we have a systematic issue with “rankings” in college football that needs to be addressed.
People will probably overreact to this stat (if it holds). But in most of the QF games, it’s been simple — the better team won the game. They could move the whole CFP up a week to shorten the long layoff for teams, though.

lol. QBs throwing directly to DBs. 9 TOs. This is not good football.
This game is only "boring" if you don't appreciate good defense. Both defenses have been tremendous and you gotta appreciate that.

Kind of sort of tired of reporters telling us this. Did the Same with OU/Bama. Fans know when they see this type of game…this ain’t it. TTU offense isn’t competent. Is some of that ORE D? Sure, but that isn’t the majority of the it. Just plain bad football on one side.

The final AP Poll of the regular season: 9. Notre Dame 10. Miami 11. Alabama The gap between Notre Dame and Miami in voting is bigger than the gap between Miami and Alabama. Notre Dame is also closer to No. 8 Oklahoma in voting than No. 10 Miami.

Miami fans deal with Manny Diaz making the championship game before them, blaming Jim Phillips, and refusing to look in the mirror follow losses to 2, four-loss teams 😂
When are more ACC university presidents going to wake up to this problem

Imagine having to actually make this argument and then turning around and acting like they’re being denied if they miss the CFP. Making the ACC championship game is the must-be-this-tall-to-ride sign for an ACC CFP team.
Just pretend it’s COVID and do what the Big Ten did

The thing about this up-in-arms pundit narrative is that there are several diff rankings and metric systems that all arrive at the same conclusion. Each is flawed in its own way, but between polls, computers, committees, and advanced metric the pundit narrative is the outlier.
What the College Football Playoff Committee is doing to Miami is the biggest injustice in the system's history Column: on3.com/news/miami-is-gettin…

Would encourage anyone in or who wishes to be in #academia to read this thoughtful piece by my friend and collaborator.
thinking a lot lately about transitioning off the academic research path and decided to jot some thoughts down about the state of academia, rigor/reproducibility, and the field of experimental #nutrition research. kcklatt.substack.com/p/losin…

Proud of our lab’s first foray into the concept of #Metabolic Flexibility and Nick Foreman, a 3rd year PhD student now, started this in journey in just his 2nd semester. We would love your thoughts and feedback on this preprint as we submit for publication.
A new preprint to kick off the new school year! Increased Postprandial Metabolic Flexibility is Associated with Higher Body Fat Percentages in Healthy Young Adults A thread on our findings, which were the opposite of what we expected...

If you take a single point away from this argument, read the last 3 tweets of this incredible informative thread.

One comment: All you people replying, "She = He" Please stop. Read up on DSDs. Depending on the type, she would have no external genitalia, no signs of androgenization until after puberty, etc. She'd grew up as a girl, and not realize until into teens or even adulthood.

The Trump Campaign now thinks the federal government should inquire as to why (biological vs. choice) people don’t have kids when they somehow rewrite the constitution to give extra votes to families with kids.
As a new mom, my heart aches for women who are unable to bear children. @JDVance words are being taken out of context and unfairly attacked. Here are his full comments from 2021: "A lot of people are unable to have kids for very complicated and important reasons…there are people of course for biological reasons, medical reasons that can't have children. The target of these remarks is not them.”

That’s a lot of money to come up with heat shock proteins and cytokine receptors.

#ESPN and their propaganda machine will move thr goalposts in whatever direction they want. They have no financial left in the ACC…it’s a dead conference they’re waiting to scrap when the major players leave. That’s the bottom line.
Unfortunately significant injuries impact teams as much as head to head matchups and conference championships. You can’t ignore the impact the loss of Jordan Travis had on the Noles. Sucks..but big part of a teams final evaluation

Tell me you don’t know that weight loss programs come with extensive lifestyle modification counseling and attempts before surgery and that surgery (in the USA) requires significant weight loss demonstration before insurance approval without saying it.
Sad but too often true 👇👇👇

It’s even more unsatisfying to those who are only interested in confirming their priors.
Science is often unsatisfying to everyone. Add politics & motivated reasoning to the mix and it may appear unresolvable. However, there is a great deal of evidence for the pandemic’s origin. Any truly objective review of that evidence concludes it points in only one direction.
