It's nice to see people favouriting my posts. But it doesn't affect visibility (for anyone else). Only boosting matters

I seem to do my best thinking on a train. Thinking about the genomic hallmarks of host adaptation in bacteria. Genome size is a blunt measure between species. Psuedogenes are another within a species. Thinking what else we could reliably use. ..

I'm standing next to a dinosaur leg. Its owner (Patagotitan mayorum) was around 40 metres long and weighed about 75 metric tonnes. That's 5 Nabils tall, 23 Nabils long. And 880 Nabils in weight.UK fans can see a reproduction of the full skeleton in March at the natural history museum London https://www.nhm.ac.uk/visit/exhibitions/titanosaur.html

I see more and more paywalls on websites. Fed up with this, I have restarted getting in touch with my local library. They've definitely improved over the last few years. Theres the standard physical services we know and love but also access to a multitude of ebooks, audiobooks, online periodicals. E.g. my library account gives me free access to pressreader, a catalogue of 6000 publications from around the world. And I'm happily reading "science illustrated" with no ads, no fuss.

"Libraries aren't just a place to obtain books for free. They're one of the few public spaces left in our society where you're allowed to exist without the expectation of spending money."

@albertcardona the most downloaded book is Simple Sabotage Field Manual by United States.I think it's just reflecting people's priorities.
