UPS has been terrible. How is it possible that a company the size of @UPS can be so bad at communication and customer support? They promised a 48hours delivery, but its going to take a week. No one can explain, or returns calls. Huge cost and implications for us. Truly awful

👋 Do you love dabbling across tech (like Haskell, Elixir and AWS)?
Then using this knowledge for backend dev and ops?
How about applying it all to power genetic data analysis? 🧬
Then please join us, we're hiring! 😀 ([email protected])

#Sequencing & sequence-analysis programs play a huge role in preventing antimicrobial #resistance, which is predicted to cost the health sector a further $1,2 trillion/year by 2050.

I wrote about why I don't think Reader is a good choice to manage variable bindings for a Scheme interpreter, due to difficulty dealing with global definitions and mutation: micahcantor.com/blog/about-t…

It's World Antimicrobial Awareness Week!
Let's continue to combat resistance and keep antimicrobial drugs working. 💊🦠 Do you handle antimicrobials with care?
Spread Awareness, Stop Resistance

I am extremely happy to announce the long-awaited release of GHC 9.2.1!

This was a much more drawn-out release than any of us expected, but I am very happy with the end result.

.@gisaid has just passed 50,000 #SARSCoV2 genomes deposited from African countries (bit.ly/3vP7avy)
We @hyraxbio are so proud of the role our #exatype platform played in this.
As of today Exatype has been used to analyse 20,491 genomes from Africa alone!
#COVID #sequencing and #surveillance remain global priorities to monitor the emergence of #variants in different parts of the world. Read about the striking change in dominant #SARSCoV2 #variant in #SouthAfrica 🇿🇦 over the last year.

Really enjoyed being part of this excellent @mentor_podcast podcast with @jenny_molloy and Doug - fascinating to see the different approaches being applied to use science for good!
Do you have ambitions to drive transformational change?
This week, @mentor_podcast talks #entrepreneurship & #innovation.
@jenny_molloy, @simon_trav, & Douglas Sanyahumbi offer advice on how to make an impact in the translational science space!
