Somewhat related to this, I wrote a few years ago about how I envision that SWI-prolog could make a perfect integration point for reasoning and integrating multiple data sources in very intelligent ways, particularly if data is published in

Great, many thanks for this elaboration!

Thanks for the comment! I was more thinking of the means to define your data "classes" (or whatever it is called on this context) though, rather than how it is passed around.

Question to people having used Datomic: Based on experience with Prolog, I always thought using Datalog in a database like Datomic would mean being able to model your data model using stored queries as a very expressive way of creating &quo

I use to do these things. I have found though that the success can be wildly different depending on how actively I try to lead my own thoughts in certain directions. For example, I use to try to think through: - Have I seen a similar proble

Will they provide automatic M:N multiplexing on OS threads, or is that something that needs to be handled by the user somehow? Also, what about channels, and select semantics etc? I think before those are in place, with good library support

I found the awk syntax to be surprisingly discoverable, once I got the rough structure of scripts. I think the confusing factor with awk is that it allows you to leave out variuos levels of structure in the really simple scripts, meaning th

So, the point here I think is: - Flow-based programming enables a more composable way of developing software which avoids a lot of errors coming from incorrectly connecting parts of code together, making it more safe for allowing AI to the

Check out https://elicit.org which is optimized for scientific papers (using the Semantic Scholar API somehow). Perhaps it is possible to get it to make some stuff up, but it has been pretty solid in my experience so far, at lea

I'm surprised at how little attention has been given to elicit.org that is already trained on the scientific literature, and not limited to just the biomedical ditto: https://elicit.org Oh, and it provides real references!

No performance comparisons to julia? Julia is pretty much the language I would currently look into for a scripting language outside python, so it might be a pretty relevant comparison target.

Thanks for your interest! I should start with saying that Nextflow is a fantastic tool, with an very thriving community and lots of support and buy-in especially in the biomedical community. But as you are asking, below are the points that

Thanks for kind words! Yes, although conceptually it is even more similar to Nextflow. That is, it is push-based and dataflow-based, whereas Snakemake is pull-based, quite similar to Luigi (well, hey, we also developed the SciLuigi plugin t

Which leads me to start to think if there is a way to make timelapse videos that filter out some of the too quick movements, like windows and dialogs opening ... to make you mostly see how the code grows. App idea perhaps? :)

In my experience there has been a general lack of community platforms for bioinformatics on a wider scale. I was thus glad to see that a Discord server was just created. The link goes to Luca's (the creator) announcement on Mastodon. F

Hi, I wanted to let you know about this new Discord server for Bioinformatics, created by Luca Vistentin. I have personally long felt the need for such a chat server, as a place to ask for advice, network and share experiences in bioinforma

Is this new? Heard this from my exercise savvy friend some year ago. Still great to have it more confirmed if course.
