- A regression in the #hplusroadmap paperbot caused it to download and repost every URL dropped in the channel (YouTube, images, news, etc.) instead of only PDFs; the “explicit” flag was accidentally removed and later restored to fix the issue.  
- Discussion of colorized electron micrographs clarified that some are hand-tinted while others use false color derived from X-ray emission spectra captured by the microscope.  
- A Cell Stem Cell paper on “Successful Serial Recloning in the Mouse over Multiple Generations” was highlighted, showing that cloned mice can be re-cloned for at least 25 generations without the epigenetic errors once thought inevitable.  
- Critique of JBEI’s J5 DNA-assembly software argued that its closed-source, interface-heavy approach should be replaced by an open-source library to accelerate synthetic-biology workflows.  
- A brief debate questioned whether bioinformatics tools need HTML5; skeptics noted that local genome storage in a browser is impractical, while proponents cited emerging HTML5 features that could still be useful.  
- The Bell System Technical Journal (1922–1983) was shared as a newly available complete archive, offering historical telecom and electronics research.  
- A gene-therapy PDF from Alcatel-Lucent’s Bell Labs archive was retrieved and mirrored by paperbot, illustrating the bot’s intended function once the regression was fixed.
