I'm now, rather reluctantly, also on Mastadon as @PhilGrass@genealysis.social . At the moment I'm not leaving Twitter as much as I hate the current direction I find Twitter as the best source of intelligent news and commentry for folks I respect.

@DebbieKennett Yes, I saw Göran's post . Must admit the new Scientific Details report within "Discover Hg reports" really helped me. Some positions of mtDNA mutate at quite high rates, so you can't really think the mtDNA haplotree is a set of "only once" events.

Woohoo 🎉 Great to see that the new full-sequence mtDNA haplotree results are coming through at #FamilyTreeDNA. mtDNA was always the Ugly Ducking of full-sequence testing compared to yDNA. I was previously just I2. Now upgraded Hg and moved tmrca c. 2,700 yrs forward.

Note. It's really worth looking at the Scientific Details (Variants) page of Discover. Some bases appear to mutate at a high rate, so have very low Weight. This may explain why you have/had some slightly confusing results (like "Missing Mutations")

I’m guessing here, BUT I think the answer is “Our ancestors died for the lack of decent health care” 🤷‍♂️

@DebbieKennett @23andMe I’m not so sure. They burned through $89m in the last six months and the stock price would be 15.6¢ per share if they hadn’t had the “reverse stock split” TBH It seems really hard to make money from genetics,UK-based Oxford Nanopore have also lost c.80% since launch day highs.

Today might be a good day to come over to the Blue 🦋 side. It’s much more interactive than X and you don’t get notifications that some random weirdo has posted. Find me at philgrass.bsky.social

Maybe I’m paranoid, but #X insists I have a new notification when there isn’t one and never clears. 🤷‍♂️

The FBI is aware of bomb threats to polling locations in several states, many of which appear to originate from Russian email domains. None of the threats have been determined to be credible thus far. fbi.gov/news/press-rel…
