The potential reasons why the model behaved differently (absence of swarm movement from coastal Mauritania to Morocco) from the empirical observations of Sc. 4 have been given earlier (§ 4.1), but we did not explain the scenarios in 2019–2020 when swarms moved too far. We talked previously...
Now that astrophysicists know how a galaxy might lose its dark matter, Moreno and his collaborators hope the findings inspire researchers who look at the night sky to look for real-world massive galaxies that might be in the process of stripping dark matter away from smaller ones. “It ...
though they differ on the details. They are the self-appointed helmsmen pointing the rest of us into an impossibly bright future where profit charts only go up and to the right. Why resist?
their large geographical extent, small errors in predicting the way trade cumuli respond to warming can have a large effect on the global radiative budget. This explains why shallow cumuli in the trades are a main source of spread in the estimates of climate sensitivity of climate models1,2,3...
However, a key stumbling block in the Molecular Transformer is the lack of interpretability. Why the Molecular Transformer predicts one reaction outcome over another, and which training set reactions it finds most similar when reaching a particular prediction, are both unclear. Quantitative interpretabili...
Tzenni made an wordless infuriated noise. “GodcurseLatinus Malabranca! Doesn’t the man ever give up? And why doesn’t he do his own dirty work instead of sending his nephews?” “When he tried doing his own dirty work, you called him a contaminated maniac,” Innes tossed the token ...

V. v. vinifera. The characterisation of polymorphisms in genes underlying the sex-determining chromosomal...
