Hey Stavros. We were looking for a data-store to integrate into a clinical genomics LIMS that supports in-system analysis. We deal with de novo sequenced clinical samples (and not genotyped samples, which seems to be what TileDB-vcf had i

Fair, I should have said "still on a ballistic trajectory". Given that a bullet fired not straight up may travel miles, I'm just guessing here, but legal was probably not too keen on them testing the more likely scenario. A

In fairness, if I remember correctly, the bullet myth was testing the narrow condition of "shot straight up into the air" such that the bullet would be returning at terminal velocity and no longer be on a ballistic trajectory. Wh

That's not what this is...? It's a cap on the commissions UberEats/Doordash/whatever can charge on an order. To, hopefully, prevent the commission structure from causing places to lose money on orders ($10 order with

If you use 7zip on Windows or just split/cat on macOS/Linux, you can split without compressing or archiving, saving you unnecessary CPU cycles (and space).

Given that it was discovered in the 1950's, I don't think you're going to see a patent on the versions currently being used in clinic. Now,if someone creates a more bio-available/active functionalized variant of it, fin

Ha, I did something very similar also with Gitlab and runners. I was always amazed at the new and creative ways students managed to break the autograders we wrote -- particularly for our BASH scripting assignments. I was also never brave e

Shouldn't your tag line be "The Form Backend Built For Developers", with "built" not "build". And a little more unsolicited feedback: the rendering/display of code example under /How It Works&#x

The vast majority of STEM PhDs are not staying in academia. The handful of recent grads I know who did stay in academia are, as I would put it, in academia-lite. They're in industry and privately sponsored positions or institutes, that

I don't think you have a great grasp on the PhD process in the US A vanishingly small number of people are paying for their own PhD in the US. You are expected to be _funded_ though. Most programs give you 1-2 years of guaranteed fun

We generally use the browser interface, since many of our classes have both a GUI app and commandline work -- we've done this with both the Windows VMs and the linux ones. For linux desktop (Ubuntu), we use the ML-in-a-box image as ou

You've posted the same comment several times throughout this thread and in the past you've also, shall we say, name dropped saaspass repeatedly. While also ignoring questions about your affiliation with the company. Mind explain

You might also pay for stuff like LFS and packages. But if I had to guess, $1000 is probably in the 95th+ percentile of spending for teams <20 (or any sufficiently small group) -> thus this is letting startups spend on Github resource

Are you referring to the Steele dossier as "garbage 'research'"? If so, I don't quite understand your concept of garbage, given that much of it was proven correct. And I'd point out that the FBI says the doss

You really don't though? The top of the line comprable configuration has a significantly worse display, 75% of the SSD storage (that's also significantly slower), a worse graphics card and costs ~$4700.

I mean, I suppose that depends on how you're defining "overhead" cost? To sequence a human genome, you _need_ to purchase a ~$700 reagent kit from Illumina to plop into your HiSeq and a ~$300 library prep kit -- are these ov

Ehh, not really for any appreciable amount of sequencing, w've been pegged right around ~$1000/human genome for a while now [1]. The machine mentioned in the NYT article is almost certainly a variant of Thermo's RapidHIT sys
