Zone 2 cardio. Mobility maxxing. There will be no further discussion.
We are not ready for Claudewitz
I'm open to Yee when the pool is so uninspiring, but Yee's stance on weak housing stances are untenable. California is pricing out so many people with lower incomes, and that's the core financial flaw of the state. If she could adopt Mamdani's policies I'd be a lot happier.

You can always tell when Russia is scared about the status of their genocidal invasion, because they activate ludicrously false propaganda pushes in US media.
Russian lines are breaking for the first time in a long while, so Foreign Affairs is publishing Michael Desch carrying water for Putin.

Alfred, Igor, and Mark on a stage at a rally for Ukraine in San Francisco. Igor is at the mic. There are US and Ukrainian flags in the background
A large crowd marches down a wide sidewalk in San Francisco, holding Ukrainian flags and signs
Several hundred turned out for today's Bay Area rally for continued support of Ukraine's fight for freedom and survival!
Berkeley councilmember @igortregub.bsky.social led the march, councilmember @markhumbert.bsky.social was also at the rally. ✊💙💛🇺🇦
Thanks so much for showing up, Alfred! So many that wanted to be there are unable to show up in an age when refugees with proper legal status are still being detained and deported.
Things are changing fast, turns out that the conservatives think the Chamber is now a "left-wing, open borders supporting activist group" bsky.app/profile/jose...
“Asked how the cuts have affected science, one [researcher] said, ‘This is like asking, how do you think dropping an atomic bomb on New York City will affect the future of Broadway musicals? This is a generational loss of innovation, technology, and economic power.’” 🔗 archive.ph/2026.02.12-1...
They give away the game when they make up a straw man of people thinking "it's a sin to be white" because when they get power their intention is to make it a sin to *not* be white, or Christian, or whatever.

Person A: It's unfair that you are paying far less in taxes than me for an identical home.
Person B: But have you considered that I hadn't been underpaying for just one year, but many years?
Science takes a village. Thanks to everyone who has mentored a scientist, and all those awesome mentees.
Indeed, my only surprise is that in silico tools would drive the drug program. I've always seen new structure data be combined with these tools.
Really? That's great to hear. Do you mean the protein structure alone, or pose estimates? Though I've seen pose estimation and binding affinity prediction (Boltz) used for guiding screens, I hadn't heard of individual predictions being strong enough.
I see a lot more crystal structures and cryoEM experiments to validate the shaky hypotheses that AlphaFold-alikes generate. Nobody is launching a new small molecule drug program on the basis of AlphaFold results, but they may do a ton of physical experiments because of them.
Almost no one does, which is why we are in this mess. The documentation in the Epstein emails is a good chance for us figuring out why Ukraine needs to win, but every day here is filled with so much corruption and tyranny that it's hard for the story to break through.
Suburban observers say ICE has only been more aggressive since Homan: “I think they’re getting angry that we’re winning and the country is rallying around us. We’re so organized and we act with such integrity. They don’t want to admit they feel threatened by us.”

Trump walks out to journalists and says that Putin promised not to strike “Kyiv or other cities” for a week.
At the same time, russia is bombing several Ukrainian cities.
An apartment building is on fire in Kyiv right now. Explosions shake Kharkiv.

The most surprising thing to me is that Bundy actually held his stated principles rather than the unspoken ideology of all the people around him. Those of us observing from afar could see clearly what those people actually wanted, why didn't Bundy from up close?
Trump got rid of all common cents.
I'd love to have it prioritized on food labels, top level as with other macronutrients.
But most of the good sources are on things without food labels, like vegetables, bulk legumes, and whole grains.
Trying to hit 35g/day of fiber in a US diet requires conscious effort.
Where are the other two people that Alex Pretti was helping? Hopefully safe, and outside of the hands of ICE? I haven't seen any news about them.
How long must this brave woman hide before she's safe going to her home and being in public again?
Is there an existing wiki-on-demand services like there are for blogs?
Commercial offerings like Confluence are a bit hard to scale.
Max has been providing consistently important reporting on the state of science and the scientific workforce under the Trump administration. It's hard to see this as anything other than a reprisal for coverage that has been factual (not flattering).
Sounds like they tired to keep it secret but made a mistake in the table?
State murder charges are still there, the big news is that NY doesn't have the death penalty like the Feds do. Headlines are trying to deceive on this one...
The Bloomberg headline for this tricked me into clicking the article; good for generating one-time clicks but the reputational damage is big enough that I don't think I'll renew next month.
