So thrilled for the new chapter at VIB.AI and KU Leuven ! Beyond excited to contribute to their mission by diving deeper into the mysteries of the protein universe, working together to unlock new biology. Looking forward to what’s ahead in beautiful Leuven🚀🔬

Man sits by me on train. MAN: Loads of psychopaths around here ME: Really? MAN: Loads mate ME: How'd you know? MAN: There's signs aren't there? ME: I guess? MAN: I love them (47 minutes of awkward silence.) Man leaves train, he has a bike. I realise he was saying 'cycle paths'.

From Boaz Barak: "Up to this year, I did not think of myself as a 'Zionist' any more than my U.S.-born daughter is an 'Americanist.' I did not consider the existence of my birth country as being up for debate. Yet apparently, at Harvard, it is." thecrimson.com/article/2024/1…

John Hopfield has a nice article in the annual reviews of condensed matter physics. It starts off with a discussion of what physics is, which I think is totally on point.

A bit surprised by all the debate around yesterday's Nobel Prize. It is well known that all science is either physics or stamp collecting. What Hopfield and Hinton did is clearly *not* stamp collecting. Ergo it is physics.

Datamapplot 0.4 is out now, and has far more powerful and effective interactive plots. Here is an example of a Data Map of 2.4 million papers on ArXiv, ready to be explored.

NeurIPS NeurIPS Conference requires to include the "Paper Checklist" into camera-ready papers, including (!) "Guidelines" bullet point lists which are *identical in all papers* and take ~5 pages. Isn't it ugly & useless? I'd like at least to delete the guidelines, but PCs told me no.

A good heuristic about whether something can in principle be solved with deep learning: can it be done by an expert human 100% intuitively, without having to consciously think about it? If yes, then pure pattern recognition is an appropriate approach to the problem, and given

2¹³⁶²⁷⁹⁸⁴¹−1, discovered today, is the largest known prime. It's a Mersenne prime (2ᵖ-1), which are easier to find. It took nearly 6 years for the GIMPS software to find it after the previous largest known prime. It was also the first Mersenne prime found using GPUs.

I will tolerate recurrent laryngeal nerve slander no longer! It's actually the result of several elegant solutions to difficult problems in embryology, and the length is a non-issue. A 🧵 1/13

We updated our ICLR dataset (see github.com/berenslab/iclr…) with blind 2025 submissions to ICLR 2026. Over 10k submissions this year. I like how this embedding (SBERT + tSNE) shows which ML areas are old-school and which ones are currently booming.

Really excited to start rolling out this scrollytelling mode for Atlas maps with an analysis of congressional tweets -- reach out if you have a story you want to tell about a big textual dataset!
