Science — a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8, prompt version 1) read this channel’s own recent posts on 25 September 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 100% confidence. This is a model’s judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured — it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and the other topics.

20 posts held, back to 7 August 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 8 August 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
A large experiment finds that removal of noncompete clauses increases labor mobility between competing firms by 36–52% and raises workers’ total earnings by 12–17%. There is no evidence that removal of noncompete clauses leads to secret leakage nor that workers choose noncompete jobs for higher pay. https://academic.oup.com/qje/advance-article/doi/10.1093/qje/qjag040/8756424 https://redd.it/1viy9uc @r_sciencegeeks
Common microplastic may increase risk of fatty liver disease. Research found people who ate a more Western-style diet, including foods like burgers and sodas, may have a greater chance of progressing to fatty liver disease if they are also exposed to polyethylene https://stories.tamu.edu/news/2026/08/03/common-microplastic-may-increase-risk-of-fatty-liver-disease-study-finds/ https://redd.it/1vis2xj @r_sciencegeeks
Brain scans reveal widespread structural and functional changes in patients following COVID-19 infection. The virus affects regions responsible for memory, emotion, and executive function, which may help explain the neurological symptoms many patients experience. https://www.psypost.org/brain-scans-reveal-widespread-structural-and-functional-changes-in-patients-foll/ https://redd.it/1viw7lf @r_sciencegeeks
Babies of vegan mothers had no difference in median birth weight or rate of premature delivery as those from unrestricted diet mothers, study of 10,338 births finds. The mothers had no difference in rates of anemia, blood transfusions, or gestational diabetes / hypertension, but had lower BMI. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/42059364/ https://redd.it/1viuqbv @r_sciencegeeks
When parents are stressed, kids get more screen time: according to U.S. study, parents experiencing emotional distress were less likely to consistently enforce screen-time limits, while those who felt overwhelmed by their child's behavior were more likely to use screens to manage difficult moments https://news.fiu.edu/2026/when-parents-are-stressed-kids-get-more-screen-time-study-finds https://redd.it/1vitkou @r_sci…

Atmospheric data show Siberian methane emissions rose 12 teragrams a year between 2010 and 2023, and could offset a fifth of global methane cuts needed by 2050. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aea5828 https://redd.it/1vip6ah @r_sciencegeeks

E-scooters far more dangerous than motorbikes or bicycles. Study of accidents in England and Wales shows e-scooter riders 3x more likely to suffer traumatic brain injury than bikers. They also sustained more internal organ and blood vessel damage than did motorcyclists or pedal cyclists. https://www.theguardian.com/science/2026/aug/06/e-scooters-more-dangerous-than-motorbikes-or-cycles-analysis https://redd.it/1vihc…

Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @r_sciencegeeks. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 13 October 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
