Postdoc position in brain plasticity (blindness/deafness) at Georgetown University, Washington DC #neuroscience
My wife is part of styre for our borettslag. For non-Norwegians this is a volunteer board that runs our apartment block on behalf of the residents. How she ended up in this position is a bit messy but let's keep it simple and say that she hates it and intends to leave as soon as she possibly can. #Signal

JWST observes the assembly of a massive #galaxy at z~4: https://arxiv.org/abs/2511.13650 -> "NIRCam images and NIRSpec/IFU spectroscopy (R=2700) show that TGSSJ1530 1049 is part of one of the densest-known structures of continuum and line-emitting objects found at these redshifts. [...] Based on the physical separations and velocity differences between the galaxies, it is expected that these galaxies will merge to form a massive galaxy within a few Gyr. The system qualitatively resembles the forming brightest cluster galaxies in cosmological simulations that form early through a rapid succession of mergers."
Velkommen til Poulsbo!
Intel Poulsbo is a 130nm Atom chipset that was widely hated due to the near nonexistent Linux support for the PowerVR SGX535 GPU it included, rather than an Intel in house microarchitecture.
I'll decap and post die photos at some point but I wanted to visit the namesake with the intact board first.
