I think Biden should have stuck to being a #OneTermPresident, but he made no such commitment, the closest was #signalling. www.politico.com/news/2019/12...

Biden signals to aides that he would serve only a single term

Advisers weigh the merits of a one-term pledge by the 77-year-old former vice president.

Some academic nonfiction books can benefit from footnotes, citations, and references.

That's where I am on my current project. It's not as tedious as indexing, yesterday's topic, but neither is it exciting – just a necessary accessory.

In this brief post, I share my workflow. In fact, this infographic does a lot of the heavy lifting.

More progress with the model railway signals.

I designed a mount for the Train-Tech range of OO scale signals. The top surface is a perfect match for the signal base, then there’s a 12mm diameter plug that goes into the baseboard. Underneath is a stem to which I can tie-wrap a flat cable, making it immobile.

Install the signal on top, it’s a snug push fit. Then fix the cable in place and solder it to the terminals on the signal.

What we end up with is a very solid baseboard mount for the signal, together with a cable that has been immobilised to ensure reliability.

One ground signal wired in, with a basic rule set up so that it is red when the point is thrown. Five to go!

The rules will be extended so that the ground signals only activate when shunting is taking place - I’m going to use some physical switches connected to an accessory decoder to indicate this on a per-platform basis (or per-corner of the station, not quite decided yet)

The 3D printer is working again and the first platform is getting longer! Sadly the platform surface colour varies a lot, but this won’t be as noticeable once the canopies have been installed.

Equally importantly I’m hoping to get some ground signals lit up and working tomorrow, and maybe even a three aspect signal on the new platform. Pics will follow, obvs.

A true tour-de-force study by the group of Bernhard Küster posted as bioRxiv preprint. They profiled 133 kinase inhibitors in 5 cell lines at 11 doses using #phosphoproteomics with #decryptM to identify 5,318 confident kinase::substrate relationships for 96 human #kinases. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.11.18.689017v1
