How you do anything is how you do everything.
The teenager bagging groceries today asked if I wanted my bread on top.
I said yes.
He nodded seriously and said, "Good call. Structural integrity is everything."
Then he arranged my bags like he was building a cathedral.
His coworker laughed at him.
But my bread arrived home unpunched, my tomatoes unbrushed.
Sometimes the people who care too much about small things are exactly who we need.

we are suffering from an epidemic of "cocktail party thought". a huge part of our country can only conceptualize the world through nice little facts and counterintuitive gotchas. they view the world like its all one big atlantic article. not a big mess of blood, flesh, and souls

Cement all your hemis!
The surgical complication risk of cementless HA for FNF is higher than cemented HA, with an 11-fold increased risk of ppfx compared to cemented HA.

Also she is the most difficult person to sing "Happy Birthday" to.
Tu Youyou became the first mainland Chinese scientist to be awarded a #NobelPrize in a scientific field - for discovering artemisinin, a malaria cure that’s saved millions. Today we reveal the 2025 medicine laureate. Stay tuned.

Earth's surface is in motion: earthquake faults slip, crops grow, levees crumble, glaciers retreat.

One of my least fashionable pedagogical opinions is that we should bring back rote memorization in a big way.

Making a case for Jasprit Bumrah as the most complete fast bowler in the history of the game. It’s hard to refute in my opinion. bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/arti…

This is not a dire wolf. They cannot do de-extinction. They can just tweak living animals to have primitive features. This company is going to make designer zoo animals. They will be isolated, lonely, and a shadow of their loving relatives. Real scientists support conservation.
SOUND ON. You’re hearing the first howl of a dire wolf in over 10,000 years. Meet Romulus and Remus—the world’s first de-extinct animals, born on October 1, 2024.
The dire wolf has been extinct for over 10,000 years. These two wolves were brought back from extinction using genetic edits derived from a complete dire wolf genome, meticulously reconstructed by Colossal from ancient DNA found in fossils dating back 11,500 and 72,000 years. This moment marks not only a milestone for us as a company but also a leap forward for science, conservation, and humanity. From the beginning, our goal has been clear: “To revolutionize history and be the first company to use CRISPR technology successfully in the de-extinction of previously lost species.” By achieving this, we continue to push forward our broader mission on—accepting humanity’s duty to restore Earth to a healthier state.
But this isn’t just our moment—it’s one for science, our planet, and humankind. All of which we love and are passionate about. Now, close your eyes and listen to that howl once more. Think about what this means for all of us.
