EXAPTATION. “Evolution works best when it does not need to generate a whole new active site from scratch. Instead, evolution can generate a new enzyme from one that is “close”, that is, shares elements of mechanism or machinery from which the new activity can be built. Nature co-opts old machinery to do new jobs.” https://lnkd.in/d2-p85M View in LinkedIn

ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI. “The disc becomes unstable if the ratio of dark matter mass to disc mass becomes smaller than a critical value, and give the following parametrization for the onset of disc instabilities.” https://lnkd.in/d9JV8md View in LinkedIn

OTHER FACTORS. “This suggests that moderately luminous AGN may undergo a ‘main-sequence’ secular growth, e.g. their nuclear activity might be additionally driven by disc instabilities.” (AGN = active galactic nuclei). https://lnkd.in/d9JV8md View in LinkedIn

LUMINOSITY AND GROWTH. “Various observational studies suggest that moderately luminous AGN are typically not major-merger driven, at z < 1, and interestingly also at z ≈ 2 as they do not find more morphological distortions for AGN host galaxies than for inactive galaxies.” (AGN = active galactic nuclei). https://lnkd.in/d9JV8md View in LinkedIn

“THE GOAL of this work is to explore the interplay of different physical processes that determine the masses of seed BHs, the triggering of AGN activity and the efficiency of gas accretion during the active phases of BHs, with the aim of understanding the physical origin of the observed downsizing trend in BH growth.” (BH = black hole; AGN = active galactic nuclei). https://lnkd.in/d9JV8md View in LinkedIn

EDUCATION IS BROKEN. “Synthesis is a simulation-based learning experience built around complex team games. Students work through case studies, simulations, and game-based challenges. While playing, kids teach themselves how to win. In the process, they learn new problem-solving skills.” Batch students by ability not age, teach the problem not the tool. https://lnkd.in/dP5rMwf View in LinkedIn

EVOLVING MEDIUM. “Language is like an organism that grows and evolves, with both its semantics and syntax becoming ever more complex. Language began as verbal or spoken language and evolved into written language, mathematics, science, computing, and the Internet.” https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-59177-9_13 View in LinkedIn

CONCEPTUAL FREEDOM. “Human verbal language allows us to think about abstractions, to plan for the future and reminisce about the past. Language is generative so that we are capable of creating an infinite number of possible messages or ideas.” https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-59177-9_13 View in LinkedIn
