That reminds me of the idea that brain as a predictive engine that constantly refine its internal model to match anticipated sensory outcome. In this case the inference is way more complex based on cognition that the placebo would help reli

Also this one... "Racial profiling is at the heart of Amazon Ring’s business model." There's a liberal tendency to hyper-focus on race and see everything in the lens of race only. Ironically, I don't think this helps rac

Would have to disagree. They will need to confirm these were not artifacts. Long read sequencing assembly is the best approach to show the computationally assembled reads indeed coming from single contiguous molecules.

Was thinking the same and wondering how did they obtain the million-base long sequences. Turned out they used short read sequencing with 150 or 250 bp reads and computationally assembled the long reads [1]. While this is a traditionally val
