Looks useful. Poly project from @TimothyStiles has a Golang pkg 'seqhash' (github.com/bebop/poly/tree/m…) as well, and seqkit has a 'sum' cmd for the whole fasta/q file, both supporting circular/linear, single/double-stranded seqs (bioinf.shenwei.me/seqkit/usa…). biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

I once gave a talk to a class of 9-10 year olds on morphogenetic plasticity. One raised his hand & asked: could we make a flying rhinoceros? I gave him the reasons why it was unlikely. Rightly shaming me for a lack of commitment, he said "so what, you're just giving up??!"

Depends on how fast I can do the live demo but the talk I gave at synbiobeta the other year averaged out to a rate of 1 unique SpongeBob meme appearing every 18.75 seconds.
SpongeBob diaper meme template. First panel - Patrick Star: "Synbio software isn't that bad" Second panel - Spongebob holding a trashcan full of dirty diapers label Genbank. 3rd - SB points to pile of dirty diapers labeled "Code available upon request". 4th: SB open fridge full of diapers labeled, "abandonware. 5th: SB reveals that couch is made of diapers labeled, "no unit testing or documentation. 6th: SB peels back wall paper revealing that his house's wall are stuffed with dirty diapers labeled, "it runs on my machine". 7th: SB points out the window to something the viewer can't see in frame 8th: Camera pulls back to reveal a giant pile of diapers on SpongeBobs lawn labeled, "Mountain of Spaghetti Code".

I remember the first meetup I ever went to in the Bay Area had steak, mezcal, a DJ, and a dude who figured out how to run windows 98 in the browser via web assembly showing off for 150 nerds. We used to be a community, a proper community.

Thinking about making a local meetup in SF called, "Anything but Beer, Pizza, and AI", because it's getting dismal out here folks.

PSA, since I've now seen problems arising from this: As of Sept 2023, GATK no longer makes missing genotypes explicit in VCFs (i.e. "./." as in the VCF spec). Missing genotypes are instead coded as "0/0" with a DP=0 format field. See attached for examples.

annnd @ollama built with absolutely 0 errors on the first try with CGo which if you've used CGo before you know is impressive.

So @TwFlem made a PR for this absolutely bad*ss burrows-wheeler transform implementation based on @BenLangmead's youtube videos. github.com/bebop/poly/pull/4… I don't know enough about bwt to give this PR the review it deserves. Anyone here on this bird app who could lend us a hand?

#360 Bwt by TwFlem Β· Pull Request #411 Β· bebop/poly

Changes in this PR This is for #360. @TimothyStiles mentioned implementing a naive version of the BWT. At first I took his suggestion. As I read up on the applications of BWT for genomic data, the ...
