Oddly enough, the reference (but not the author list) seems bona fide.

If the board behind you says “Blackeye specialist”, it is a distinction well earned.

Impeccable taste.

The second is an “evolved” or “neural network” model, in which molecules are multifunctional, redundancy and interconnection are abundant, and we have not a neat flowchart but a tangled hairball. LLMs might really be an ideal, perhaps essential, tool to make sense of this evolutionary mess. (2/2)

Side track - I find biologists use two models of life, starting with the individual cell. The first is a “designed” or “electronic circuit” model, in which cells have well defined pathways and regulatory mechanisms that can be diagrammed in flowcharts, and that e.g. explain how drugs work. (1/2)

If it is not on your plans yet, I recommend to go see the Groeningemuseum (fabulous collection!) and Memling’s great altarpiece in the St. Jansospitaal…

TR not BR

It may be that BR is an R4Q-2.

Which I have to denounce as somewhat unfair, as its post-McNamara designation was C-119F.

You can still write a coherent and grammatical sentence, so you are *a lot* better at this than yours truly.
Nevertheless—Why torture yourself by trying?

Well done, but you underestimated an evil mind…

TR being the very little known, pilotless A5M2 drone version, obviously.

TL is a Lockheed Altair (autocorrect wants to make it Lockheed Affair, after the bribery scandal). The rest was correct, I think.
