Sto leggendo "Le Assaggiatrici" di Rossella Postorino. Sono a metà libro: un po’ deluso dalla trama principale sulle assaggiatrici del Führer, ma molto coinvolto nella storia d’amore tra Rosa e l’agente delle SS.

Che romantico.

Just my two cents: I by far prefer the solo episodes of the #MindscapePodcast. There’s something reassuring about @seanmcarroll.bsky.social talking to himself for two hours about the mysteries of the universe—including the mysteries of the human condition.

There. Said it.

Cold and sunny. Blue-Sky Salerno, Italy. The way I like it.

As a chemistry academic, I always steered clear of materials, drawn to systems with biological relevance. Never would I have guessed that my future would be filled with polymers, alloys, and battery materials. Turns out, I was wrong—and it’s actually some of the coolest stuff I’ve ever worked on.

From Berlin, back to the South of Italy for a few days. Here has come the sun.

I’m new around here. I have question. In Twitter the messages were called tweets… How do you call them in Bluesky?

Saturday morning, Berlin’s gray. Will go read my things to my favorite coffee shop: Atlas. Cozy, noisy, busy.

Some say Under The Dome is a disaster, others call it Stephen King's best work. I'm 150 pages in and still undecided. It's kind of gripping... but where is it heading?

I’ve always loved the Fab Four, but the new remixes?

WOW.

Last night, I played Revolver Super Deluxe Version, and OMG—Tomorrow Never Knows, Taxman... these mixes bring the groove alive! It was like hearing magic for the first time.

#Beatles = Timeless legends.

Oh dear. Se questo rapporto è vero, non è un gap, è un canyon. Non sappiamo né fare calcoli né capire un testo, né risolvere un problema. Poi dice che uno se ne va.

Un'indagine dell'OCSE dice che siamo agli ultimi posti tra i paesi avanzati per abilità di calcolo e comprensione del testo, e per l'economia è un guaio

If we all find 100 posts to like every day, engagement and good will on @bsky.app grows exponentially.

Is it worth a few minutes to make the platform stronger ?

If the universe is infinite—shocking. If it is finite, what’s there beyond it?

Scary.
Over 2+ years of working on a biography of Elon Musk, I've learned that his ambitions are significantly grander than anyone realizes. He wants to be the first trillionaire ever. He wants to be the most famous human who ever lived. He wants to rule the world. He wants to live forever.

All literally.

Retrosynthesis not an easy feat!
Another great model from @msftresearch.bsky.social AI for Science - CHIMERA, an accurate retrosynthesis prediction model by @marwinsegler @MaziarzKris and team!
new preprint on chemical synthesis ML models

- showing how to combine multiple models in a principled way
- modern Transformers + GNN to featurize chemical reaction:
- new insights in where the models shine
+ bonus: find the quirky named reaction!

Feedback welcome!

Definitely a great watch. And refreshing in some way.
Just finished Disneys’ ‘Beatles64’ - loved the archive footage, less enamoured with some of the interviews, but overall a great watch! Roll Over Beethoven end credits just stunning @beatlesbookspod.bsky.social @beatlesbible.com @eggpod.bsky.social @beatlesarchive.bsky.social

Sad day today, 44 years ago. #JohnLennon
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do;
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too.
Imagine all the people
Livin' life in peace.
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one.

John Lennon, 10/9/40-12/8/80

That’s the kind of fan I am. Top 0.05%. Some might say obsessed. #Beatles

What I love is text. No videos, no pics. Just words.

Words ignite your mind.

The coffee machine at Berlin’s Espresso House beeps just like the count-down in Lost. I almost stood up to go type the numbers in. Don’t want the world to end.

December Berlin is cold. I sip my coffee. News from Syria. Who knows how our 20’s will play out.
December 8, 2024 at 9:15 AM
The Espresso House is where you go for coffee, but it’s never just that. Maybe it’s the jazzy Beatles covers murmuring in the background. Readers, designers, writers awaken with their coffee. I’m reading Under The Dome by Stephen King. Around me, Berlin wakes up with its stories. So do I.
