Eleanor Roosevelt and Lyudmila Pavlichenko.
   Lyudmila Pavlichenko was a Soviet sniper credited with 309 kills, she is regarded as the most successful female sniper in history. She visited with President Franklin Roosevelt, becoming the first Soviet citizen to be welcomed at the White House. Afterward, Eleanor Roosevelt asked Lyudmila to accompany her on a tour of the country and tell Americans of her experiences as a woman in combat. Pavlichenko was only 25, but she had been wounded four times in battle.

Meow Generator

Pretty soon the internet won’t need humans anymore.*

Alexia Jolicoeur-Martineau has been playing around with using generative adversarial networks to create cat pictures. Which are pretty convincing. Those are definitely cats (and not lovecraftian ones, unlike some previous examples).

The source code is available if you’d like to try generating your own, but the part I found interesting was the write-up that compared different approaches. DCGAN has nice results at 64x64, with other methods varying in quality.

More than a century later, that clip has rejoined the cutting edge. It is now the first movie ever to be encoded in the DNA of a living cell, where it can be retrieved at will and multiplied indefinitely as the host divides and grows.

The advance, reported on Wednesday in the journal Nature by researchers at Harvard Medical School, is the latest and perhaps most astonishing example of the genome’s potential as a vast storage device.

Yes, Mr Bunnsy Has an Adventure was the cause of much discussion amongst the Changelings. What was it for? Was it, as Dangerous Beans believed, a vision of some bright future? had it been made by humans? The shop had been for humans, true, but surely even humans wouldn’t make a book about Ratty Rupert the Rat, who wore a hat, and poison rats under the floorboards at the same time. Would they? How mad would anything have to be to think like that?
