#NationalMothWeek day 9! The final moth of the week is the truly spectacular Picasso moth (Baorisa hieroglyphica). Considered to be one of the most beautiful moths in the world. Photo: msone #MothWeek

The ant and aphid relationship is really fascinating. From what I've read, the ants protect the aphids from predators so that they can then "milk" the aphids for the Sao they consume. Soooo cool to see this in my yard today!

The best test to gauge AI progress shouldn't be based on how smart it is. The best test should be, "can it draw like a child?". This is what it thinks a 2 yr old can draw. It can't draw like a child, yet. And imo, it won't have made much progress until it can. #ChatGPT #dalle

The 23andme news is making its rounds on LinkedIn. I'm reading that genetic data is valuable because foreign adversaries could use this type of data for the development of #DNA -targeted biological weapons. Hey #science Twitter/X, is this even possible or is it fear mongering?

Extraordinary video in which a Jewish student highlights the extent of antisemitism on campus at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Elite universities and their DEI bureaucracies have failed us.

It's been a while, hasn't it? Twitter has changed, I've changed, the world has changed. I'm in cybersecurity these days. I still haven't unpacked my microscopes. I finally watched Handmaid's Tale. I've been feeding chickadees and chopping wood. Maybe I'm back?

I think I want to create a YouTube docuseries similar to what Louis Theroux does, without needing to travel everywhere to line up interviews. I'm lazy and I'm perimenopausal. It could work virtually, right? Could it? There are so many people I want to talk to... #notapodcast

Picked up this heavy rock at the beach this summer. Looks like granite inside? I know nothing. And that's part of the fun of having a rock collection.

Another oceanic squid (Walvisteuthis jeremiahi) - a small species of cephalopod belonging to the family Onychoteuthidae. This juvenile flashed bright colors at me the entire time I photographed it.

NEW PAPER: Ever wondered why insects fly in all sorts of crazy patterns around lights at night? So did we! We set about recording flying insects to work out what's going on. I'll summarise what we found in this 🧵. Spoiler: We don't think they confuse lights with the moon.

In 2020, I took a small piece of moss from under a park bench along the canal in Ottawa and put it in a bottle. I've done nothing to it and it's been growing ever since.
