@GustavinoBevilacqua Ah, me lo immaginavo più piccolino. Beh, una buona scusa per bersi una birra, che certamente sarà sufficiente per rilassarsi durante le 6 ore!

That's my favorite way to design proteins, just get around the table with a bunch of friends and build up the lego!

Since you talk about biological validation, I was recently in a lecture held by a Swiss guy (I don't have my notes with me right now).
His group was designing new proteins with genetic algorithms, but the cool part was that the genetic algorithm was a physical and biological one.
They would place a gene encoding a protein inside bacteria, induce random mutations and through microfluidics separate the cells which contained a good protein (they were evaluating the catalytic effects on some reaction). Then they would sequence all the good ones. And reintroduce them in the cycle.
This is quite cool, works and its rapid as well as I think they were processing some thousands proteins per second if I'm not mistaken.

@GustavinoBevilacqua Quanto devi stamparla grande perché la scritta esca scritta davvero?
In alternativa: quanto è piccola la punta più piccola che hai e quante ore sei disposto ad aspettare per ogni pezzo?

Il foro sulla punta secondo me è meglio farlo a mano che così sembra molto a rischio collasso.

Today I had to take one of the hardest decision: reboot a server.
It is not back yet.
I hope it's just a boot problem that will get solved in a few hours by the system automatically.

The alternative is not so pleasant.

@ralf As long as you believe that science is one objective thing and that observed things can't be subjective; you're absolutely right.

@ralf As long as you're not the scientist.

@esther@strangeobject.space Mastodon: or how I learned to stop blocking and love the chaos.

#todo Use LLMs as a review tool to see if you actually understood a topic.
Start writing about it and try to explain it to them, correct any error the incur into.

@elduvelle @coolbutuseless I used visual software for a long time, then I realised that for normal operation it's just faster to go through the commands and that for advanced stuff it generally just works better on the cli

@bjnord @mos_8502 @flexion If they were using it for molecular modeling they probably knew the power they had very well: not enough.

@resistenza_non_binaria With short term I mean 20-30 years.

@cyrilpedia Well, when you select one of the best Italian wine varieties it's difficult to get something bad.
Portugal has amazing wine, but indeed you can find very good wines in plenty other places.

I opened LinkedIn today and I was shocked by a lot of Italians writing posts, either in Italian or in terrible English, condemning the Italian Privacy Institution for having sanctioned OpenAI because they were infringing the Italian privacy laws.

This is absurd, we have a government that courageously confronts a huge company telling them to fuck off unless they abide by our laws and people condemn it.
I'm more and more convinced there is no real way to improve Italian society in the short term.

@InayaShujaat @Tutanota @jackyan Sad to hear that. Unfortunately, using a different communication media is not enough to change peoples mind.

@hschmale @Tutanota I don't think you'll find what you're searching for here.
Don't get me wrong, there are some people doing that, but I feel this is not a good place for such things and the vast majority of users don't use this social that way.
A better place to find such things are blogs.

Here I appreciate the community building process and the societal development. It's not people following other people but rather creating meaningful relationships with other users, getting to know them and discovering what springs from common interests.
Generally, I interact with a few groups of people whom I share something with and only rarely I get to write things for the general public.
I do sometimes write extensive analysis on some topics, but these are generally in a discussion with somebody. As an example: I am a chemist and some time ago there was a discussion about the methodologies to deal with tear gas; so I helped them out by performing a literature review on the topic and providing them with extensive information about the different types of tear gases and possible remedies.

You give to other people and get from them.
I try to keep the amount of people I follow small, as that helps me to have a cleaner and more explorable home timeline.
