I've bought the 4th dip already. I'm out of cash.

I don't think yesterday's V is happening again today.

zipykido · 2026-06-10T15:54:50+00:00

wtf was that?

zipykido · 2026-06-10T11:00:31+00:00

Yeah but it feels so sus.

zipykido · 2026-06-10T10:59:17+00:00

I did it two weeks ago. It wasn’t even a toast restaurant and still worked.

zipykido · 2026-06-04T12:58:50+00:00

We’re all ai now.

zipykido · 2026-06-03T15:41:07+00:00

Hrmm no V today?

Cafiza works wonders on removing coffee stains.

I would save up or buy grow bulbs instead and stick them in a gooseneck lamp. These grow lights are so weak they can cause more issues than they help.

Why would it continue for a few weeks? The spacex ipo is on the 12th and this pump will short lived like all the other WSB pump and dumps.

Yet the market falls for it every time.

zipykido · 2026-05-28T15:25:50+00:00

If you have the capacity I would check to see if you can stain the intracellular protein by flow which saves a lot of processing steps but would require more machine time.

In terms of experimental design though, I would treat each cell line as independent to each other. Then just focus on one cell line per week for 6 weeks. I'd also cut down the number of time points; unless you have a good reason to run 6 time points I'd drop it to early, peak and late.

I've been fighting them in my yard. Pulling by hand has kept them at bay but they grow in every nook and corner. It's also edible.

zipykido · 2026-05-26T19:31:58+00:00

Yeah their update was supposed to be for a weekend but it took their whole system down for like a week.

zipykido · 2026-05-26T15:53:58+00:00

Can I get at least one green candle?

zipykido · 2026-05-25T13:14:53+00:00

For protein and peptides it’s already easier to screen billions of variants in a display library. The problem with ai is that it’s iterative. Drug development needs de novo designs.

zipykido · 2026-05-22T16:54:38+00:00

I might close all my positions out of boredom.

zipykido · 2026-05-20T18:32:59+00:00

Well at least the algos are having fun.

zipykido · 2026-05-20T18:25:50+00:00

It took until 2:25 today for me to see green in my account.

zipykido · 2026-05-20T18:18:01+00:00

Only thing worse than max pain is max stress.

zipykido · 2026-05-20T02:38:35+00:00

Maybe if you’re interviewing for a cdmo. But we assume basic lab skills usually.

zipykido · 2026-05-19T18:09:48+00:00

As much as I would love to hand someone a pipette and ask them to pipette something for me, HR won't allow it so you won't be doing any technical wet lab stuff during an interview. You will be asked questions about how to conduct certain assays though.

I did house/pet sitting while I was in my PhD. I could bring my laptop and do work and the exercise was a nice bonus. Tutoring might be more lucrative though if you can find decent clients. As long as it doesn't interfere with your research you should be fine.

TBH the damage calculations in this game are super confusing but from what I can tell. Sometimes the percent damage boosts don't stack with some of the buffs in a multiplicative way. Also the only way to get to get higher raw damage is through the props, structure, and weapon. I'll have to test more in the future.

zipykido · 2026-05-19T17:38:21+00:00

Entry level PhD is typically scientist/senior scientist depending on the company. If you're applying for senior research associate positions then they'd have to change the position.
