It's a question of values, the students know the world does not value the experience or education he is providing, and they don't have an intrinsic interest in it. Being able to discuss Sartre will not get them a high paying job,

I said ‘imply’ because your response is not to an article on apples walled garden but work of open source developers. I agree with you 100% on criticizing apple but not on whether someone should put effort in making it more open.

What do you mean by “should the community do X” ? The Community is not some form of organisation with a mission and objective, it is a loose collection of individuals free to put their talents and explore intersts into whatever they please.

I tried to dissect this paper on my recent 6h flight. Despite a decade of research in prostate cancer genomics I could not figure out what is going on. the results are both vague and at odds with established knowledge. the computational app

Wow, I would love to be in the meeting where this decision was made. Let's ship this with a foot gun, but lets not mention in the JEP that it may hang - let them figure it out.

It is important to note that all-trans retinoic acid is standard therapy for some types of myeloid leukemias, most notably acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and it is also routinely used for treatment of neuroblastoma (a pediatric solid tu

So it looks like you have no clue really why an employer would pay? Maybe when things become tight you would consider selling some user data? Or we can just trust you 100% as you are a solid guy?

The privacy statement is brutally honest they can do with your data whatever, sell it, keep it even though you delete, ruin your life. “Hey google recruiter would you like to know how this candidate did on previous interviews, contact us an

Agree. As a geneticist I have to say this is both scientifically vapid and ethically wrong. Mendel did not consent to this. Just like Henrietta Lacks did not know or consent to her tumor being used for research (which includes sequencing).

Perhaps replacing "trans" with "black", "Jew", "Muslim" or any other marginalized minority group, would help you understand why such blanket "I cannot understand X at all" causes people to o

Yes, calling out a group of people an "insane concept" is a form of hostility. The existence of trans people (and children) both at the social and biological (even genetic) level is quite beyond doubt. One might disagree and discu

Great thoughtful comment. I think you answer your question yourself. It is defensively written for the modern intellectual who wishes their beliefs to have a flair of objectivity. Perhaps another question is, why it is not enough for the au

OxyContin is not significantly more (or less) addictive or dangerous than other opiates. The problem with it is that it has been marketed by Purdue as 'safe', and that it is over-prescribed. I recommend the book Pharma by Gerald P

Not sure, again, how to respond to this. Why resort rhetorical devices? I said "courage of people wo have no fear of dying" you said "courage in choosing death", very different. You have not defined what type of "pr

I find the way you summarized the discussion unhelpful, because your goal is to present very reasonable critiques to living forever in the most absurd way, and insult those who have those opinions "Man up, save your family, save yourse

There is immense value in clinical data (all the information captured and siloed through EHR). Pharma companies pay for access to it to gather real-world evidence (RWE) how, for example, their drug performs. Molecular information is increas
