GlobDB: A comprehensive species-dereplicated microbial genome resource
Over the past years, substantial numbers of microbial species' genomes have been deposited outside of conventional INSDC databases. The GlobDB aggregates 14 independent genomic catalogues to provide a comprehensive database of species-dereplicated microbial genomes, with consistent taxonomy, annotations, and additional analysis resources. The GlobDB is available at https://globdb.org/.

Benefits of remote work: I get to microwave fish, and nobody complains about it.

Resolving Discrepancies in Wood Micromechanics: Strain-Mapped Compression of Tracheid Wall Micropillars
Wood's increasing role as a structural resource in sustainable materials selection demands accurate characterization of its mechanical behavior. Its performance arises from a hierarchical structure, where the dominant load-bearing component is the S2 layer of tracheid cell walls-a thick, fiber-reinforced composite of cellulose microfibrils embedded in hemicelluloses and lignin. Due to the small dimensions and anisotropic nature of the S2 layer, mechanical testing presents significant challenges…

Did my first #AmateurRadio bike race support today as a family activity. My oldest and I ran separate ham SAG vehicles, and my wife ran net control some of the time.
I had borrowed a mobile U/VHF rig from my club so that we could have one rig in each vehicle, but then my coax was apparently damaged for the antenna in the other car which disabled its mobile rig, so "bring your …

I think it’s pretty notable that Greta Thunberg has openly blamed capitalism for the climate crisis we’re in.
She argues that the current system, driven by fossil fuel interests, colonialism, imperialism, and exploitation, is fundamentally responsible for environmental destruction and social injustice.
While she has been a prominent figure for several years, her media presence has fluctuated. Recently, she has received renewed attention, particularly after high-profile events lik…

Gegen Mikroplastik: Transparentes Papier ist formbar wie Kunststoff - Golem.de
Ein Prozess, kaum aufwendiger als Papierherstellung, schafft Transparenz und beliebige Formbarkeit. Aber es bleibt Papier, das verrottet.
