I’m ruined because at this point any jokes about AppleCare immediately replay the “I was told by AppleCare that I could walk in the store and pick up the part” line in my head and the lady hitting the stroller offbeat when she screams it.

Alt: The famous “I was told by AppleCare I could walk in the store and pick up the part” video into gif. Lady in striped dress hits the stroller as she yells to an Apple Genius about her frustrations with customer service.

To update: I played as Ellen Ripley briefly and I lasted for about thirty minutes. I hid under a table and got scared to come out. Eventually I accepted my destiny and ran out and the alien got me. Hiding/stealth games are truly the greatest fear inducer, but what a game Alien: Isolation is. 👏

This picture so far however is one of my favorites so far. It’s of my mom and dad several years before I was born. Not sure who the kid is in the picture as it most definitely is not me and I’m the eldest of my generation. Going to treasure this collective surprise for sure.

Absolutely beautiful work!

I had a chance to play around with this recently and the Colab notebooks they provide are great ways to get up and started on your own. While not ready for clinical reliance of course, this is incredibly exciting already, and I'm paying attention to where this work continues in the future.

This was really fun to do, and I'm hoping as I continue to work with other uses of Ensembl VEP to build other helpful utilities. This is my first solo open source project I've published, not to mention a Shell script at that! I had fun with it and if it helps anyone beyond me, I'm happy with that!

I hope anyone that reads this little thread has some little bit of hope to hold onto too, even if it's just a tiny bit during these days. I know how hard it is. Hang in there.
