Yeah which is waaaay more significant both in the field of chemistry and biology. The work Turing was doing at that time was seriously advanced thinking, and really on the right track for how things like transcriptional regulation works in

Very little. He did some work on what would now be called mutational "recovery" of frame shift insertion/deletion variants in phages, for about a year on sabbatical. Which at the time would have been enough for him to have pr

As the author of this recent post https://perl6advent.wordpress.com/2017/12/16/ I'd be really interested in seeing your code for primes. You might enjoy seeing the output of `perl6 --profile` to see if t

Another interpretation is they've already gone and done a year for themselves and are now ready to work. Whereas everyone else could vanish at any time in a midlife crisis etc. The idea this is a red flag when hiring someone is madness

Depends what your goal is. I cant imagine anything worse than High School style teaching of mathematics. Its awful. That repetitive calculation, entirely unnecessary for almost any real world situation. Almost every time you are doing repet

The insurance argument for genetics is incredibly over blown. Very few people have some large quantifiable risk with high certainty found from their genetics. Something like a smart watch mobile phone fitness app that records you are clinic

Great. Maybe we will have less cystic fibrosis in the world. Not sure many people would argue they would be keen for their children to inherit that. There is a big difference between knowing you naturally are a carrier of a disease, and act

Im curious why do you find that distasteful assuming there was a chain of consent somewhere in there. Data security is super important as are chains of unbroken informed consent, for using someones individual data in a study. But pharmas ge

Some GWAS studies thats definitely true, but ultimately if the only signal you're picking up from the genetics is someones ancestry (haplotype) and that is enough to confer accurate predictions then Im not sure what your problem is? Th

You might want to sign up to be interested in our upcoming consumer product then ;D https://www.genetrainer.com/signup/ But the idea that you have absolute risk/gains from just genetics is a little unreasonable in

I'd gently suggest basic CLI Perl over BASH for cleaning up files, as it combines grep/sed/awk in a language thats more generally useful.

So a hundred lines of pure boilerplate hooking up Go standard libraries, assumedly exactly how they were intended to be used. How is this news worthy?

By definition the author doesn't consider them private so why is it amazing. What's more amazing is someone would go and even look at them let alone comment on their content!

I can see this argument its not exactly burried. The article states there was no associated health risk. The more general point is a surgeon that openly requires signing your organ, is better than one less well trained surgeon in the world.

Depends take imagination. Im sure there is variance in how imaginative people are intrinsically. But I bet the biggest difference is time dedicated to embracing that trait and expanding ability. Are you naturally a daydreamer, or are you hy

LOL! PhD you get time to think sure. About the same thing for 3+ years. Hit rate for going insane vs becoming a relaxed meditative thinker isn't as balanced as you'd hope.

Modules in Perl 6 work how you might want. The author is highlighting that the effect of the evil inside the module escapes that. So it's ultimately something you should never be doing. The whole article is a list of antipatterns/

I agree there is a lot of dross on CPAN. I've also lived the frustration of seeing two kinds of exception handler TryCatch vs Try::Tiny in the same subdir of a codebase. The issue is really that a lot of basic modern functionality requ
