Not sure that was my thesis, but I'm glad you liked it! 😁

Why? Self-driving cars are still inefficient compared to transit or an eBike.

As a die hard Brewers fan, I hope the Jays smash the Dodgers.

At the very least, good on you for making this open access.

There are also mismatches between "schoolchildren and their educators", "lifelong learning", and "public outreach". This genuinely conflates university programming and curricula with a global literacy initiative.

Respectfully, my point is that the title itself undermines the very accessibility you all are trying to promote. To me, "promulgation" signals academic insularity. Particularly from my own experiences in leading workshops for groups with mixed educational backgrounds.

I think this is why I love analog photography so much. It is what it is, you get limited chances to "get it right", and you won't know until after dev if you have any useable shots.

It's just a guess, but I can't imahine the government is paying vendors for "non-essential" services

Early on in the shutdown no one was present to review data, now I presume they haven't paid their AWS storage bills. ENA/EMBL would be my personal choice. Good luck!

Does it need to be a scanner?

Always happy to help answer any questions on the infra side!

I feel very grateful to have worked at an NSF Insitute that did cyberinfrastructure as a postdoc. Feels like not starting from zero.

My unpopular opinion is that people don't view food security as the front end of healthcare. So we spend billions and billions on disease research, some of those diseases are highly correlated with poor nutrition. Not to mention crop disease research is woefully under funded...it's a ticking time 💣

TBH this has led me down the rabbit hole of self hosting a lot of stuff, not solely content either.

I also really like "coding the matrix" it's all linear algebra problems with python/numpy long form answers

3blue1brown's latest series on the Laplace Transform is so good

How'd the results look??

You could run the reads through kraken2??
