Do people have favorite genome similarity matrix viz examples that they would suggest we implement in sourmash? Think "have N genomes / samples, want to cluster & display comparison of them all." Pointers to papers and tutorials v. welcome! cc @pjacock ref github.com/sourmash-bio/s…

Great work by @pjacock @Llewelyn68 and Pete Thorpe, finally getting this one into the public eye! My personal takeaway from working on this is that accurate metabarcoding is much harder than most people, or publications, let on. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Just a reminder that you have one body to last forever so you can wear a mask wherever you feel like it and fuck anyone who pressures you to take it off

The @UniOslo now imposing a two-factor authentication without asking for any feedback from the scientific community. We now need to have our phone to validate the login with ssh for instance! Every freaking time... It is very annoying IMO. Also imposed on email, calendars, etc.

If you are a college student who likes to nod intently at your professors while they're talking in class, just know that all of them adore you and think you are the absolute greatest

I see questions like, "Can I just post stuff on preprint servers instead of submitting to journals?" on Quora pretty regularly. Sure - if you don't care about having a full-time paid career in research.

@BardinLab @wolfgangkhuber Student recently told me she doesn't need to publish anything, because Biorxiv exists. Of course grant agency wanted real publications and we didn't get the grant renewal. i don't blame biorxiv but its existence gives a great excuse for lazy students not to write polished papers

Grr. I woke up yesterday with a crick in my neck and it is still bugging me. I am thankful though that I did not get a Watson.

We are so sad to share the news that our key architect and lead engineer has passed away. @SimonGladman1 was as smart and generous as they come - a role model for us all. Deepest condolences to his many friends and much loved family biocommons.org.au/news/simon-gla…
