    Simply. Astonishing.
    “Avocados come in 2 varieties. Type A start each day female and switches to male midday. Type B does the reverse.”

  2. 🤓 Ah, #Fuse, yet another #language that only a mother could love, serving up a cocktail of #higher-kinded gibberish and polymorphic salad 🥗. It's like someone put Haskell and a Rubik's Cube in a blender, and out came this #LLVM smoothie 🍹. Only the bravest nerds with a penchant for masochism need apply! 💻🔧

  3. With some species, one can determine their sex by looking at the clock in a phenomenon called temporal separation of the sexes.

    Avocados come in 2 varieties. Type A start each day female and switches to male midday. Type B does the reverse.

    These flowering types are transcriptionally regulated by divergent alleles of the floral transcription factor. These alleles occur in dozens of wild relatives of #avocado, defining a #polymorphism under long-term balancing selection for over 40 My.

  4. Brown and white barn owls hunt differently in bright moonlight. White owls oriented attacks toward the moon in bright moonlight but not in dim conditions, supporting a hypothesis that they use their plumage to startle prey. Brown morphs did not show the same variation in preferences.

  7. Динамический полиморфизм для свободных функций: еще одна практика из С++ для машинного обучения

    Привет, Хабр! Я Кирилл Колодяжный, разработчик систем хранения данных в YADRO и ML-энтузиаст. Продолжаю рассказывать о паттернах С++, которые легко адаптировать под задачи машинного обучения. В этой части поговорим о динамическом полиморфизме — технологии, которая помогает объединить интерфейс для запуска вычислений с разными условиями. Ссылку на первую часть найдете в конце статьи.

  8. Confessions of a Software Developer: No More Self-Censorship

    I haven't published since April because I've been afraid. I also avoided social media, news aggregators, and discussion forums for months. I'm done letting fear stop me. What was I afraid of? In this post I detail every single thing I've avoided admitting on this blog. […]

  9. 🔬 New Study on Bicalutamide! 🔬
    We’ve published our latest research on the conformational evolution of bicalutamide in chloroform using NMR spectroscopy. Associative equilibrium shifts drive conformational transitions, not the presence of a solid phase.
    This work offers new insights into conformational polymorphism and the role of solvation and concentration in controlling molecular structure.

  10. #Beetle #Harmonia #axyridis is native to Asia, but due to its use for pest control, it established #worldwide. It is known for its high number of #color/#pattern forms, partly due to a #genetically based #polymorphism. There is seemingly genetic variability in some morphs, and colors in an individual can change slightly during its life. D. Lemic et al. (2021) used #geometricmorphometrics to detect morph #plasticity.

  11. 🥱 Ah, the riveting world of Zig's "polymorphism" 🤓—because nothing screams excitement like reinventing interfaces with #static and #dynamic #dispatch. Who knew simplicity and performance meant "let's complicate things for fun"? 🎢

  12. Гайд на полиморфизм. Основные идеи

    Полиморфизм, сколько в этом слове красивого и даже таинственного. Происходит от греческого πολύμορφος что означает — многообразный. В программировании это понятие встречается часто и обыденно для понимания большинством программистов. Но так ли это на самом деле?

  13. Genotype (Genetics 🧬)

    The genotype of an organism is its complete set of genetic material. Genotype can also be used to refer to the alleles or variants an individual carries in a particular gene or genetic location. The number of alleles an individual can have in a specific gene depends on the number of copies of each chromosome found in that species, also referred to as ploidy. In diploid species like...

  14. The kākāpō is an endangered #parrot endemic to NZ. @LaraUrban42 @HernMoral & co's study of most living #kakapo shows that their green vs olive #feather color #polymorphism has a structural basis and may result from past predation #PLOSBiology plos.io/4daSv1Z

    by screening the global PB2 seq., we discovered a new independent cluster with PB2-627V emerged in the '10s, which is prevalent in various avian, mammalian, & human isolates of AIVs, including #H9N2, #H7N9, #H3N8, 2.3.4.4b #H5N1, and other subtypes.
