The diderm cell envelope is not a stack of layers but a unified scaffold of Inner Membrane–Peptidoglycan–Outer Membrane.
We discuss how tethering the OM to the PG in E. coli preserves integrity — and extend the concept across diderm bacteria.

Je ne comprends pas pourquoi certains médias ou rédactions de grands journaux français sont encore frileuses d'employer le mot "fascisme"?
@tf1info.bsky.social @francetelevisions.bsky.social entre autres, quand allez-vous nommer correctement le virage américain & la porosité des idées en Europe?
"The universities control the knowledge in our society (...) We have to agressivly attack the universities (...). Fundamental lies that feminism is liberating (...) There is wisdom in what Nixon said, the professors are the enemy "

#DataViz de fin de du monde.
We use 30 year averages to show climatology (average weather conditions). During the 20th century the UK climatology followed a path around a confined box. With #globalwarming and #climatechange they have escaped out the box. This #dataviz shows UK rainfall and temperature.

L'Université de Stanford est en train de démanteler le Stanford Internet Observatory, un centre de recherche qui était à la pointe de la recherche scientifique sur (notamment) la désinformation en ligne.

La raison ? En grande partie, l'extrême-droite.

1/9 🧵
NEWS: After sustained attacks from House Republicans, the Stanford Internet Observatory is being dismantled. A huge blow to academic freedom and our ability to understand platforms and influence operations www.platformer.news/stanford-int...
