Moved recently from X, being from computational chemist community, looking forward to write some stuff about Quantum Chemistry and my thoughts on Politics as well as Society.

If shamelessness have a documentary.
Incredible clip of tech CEOs fawning over Donald Trump. Someone store this clip in the underground archive vault

Very insightful discussion. But I do not agree on the point of "we do not want to examine closely" thing.

Peer reviewers whose work is cited in the studies they are refereeing are significantly more likely to recommend accepting those papers than if their work is not cited, a new study has found. cen.acs.org/policy/publi... #chemsky 🧪
Peer reviewers like papers that cite them
New report finds that referees are more likely to recommend studies that refer to their own work

Germany gets 60% of its power from renewables and is shutting down its coal plants. No blackouts. No high bills. Every right wing lie about renewables has been proven false.

Atom-centered basis sets behave poorly vs. Multiresolution Analysis in strong magnetic fields
Atoms and molecules behave dramatically different in the strong magnetic fields found on white dwarf stars, which are millions of times stronger than Earth's magnetic field. To study these systems com...

I had a thought when I was in my bachelors and I just learned that in Quantum Chemistry it is computationally intractable to solve the Schrödinger equation for more than 1 electron in a system. I understood but I was not convinced.

I have rarely seen such a wonderful article that has multipolar perspectives threaded in harmony. @nytopinion.nytimes.com A must read.
“The real knockout blow to Iran and all the resisters,” writes our columnist Tom Friedman “is for Trump to tell Netanyahu: ‘Get out of Gaza in return for a cease-fire from Hamas and the return of all Israeli hostages. Let an Arab peacekeeping force move in there.’”
