Last week I left it not knowing whether I'd wasted my time or not. Compiling code for ARM certainly avoids wasting other peoples' time! Our wf-bacterial-genomes @nextflowio analysis is ~7x faster with more approriate code.
For those who missed the @arm bioinformatics speedrun. A write-up on our experience reworking a @nextflow workflow to run a @nanopore analysis pipeline natively on @Apple hardware. labs.epi2me.io/inkling/

We are making more, simpler, data analysis workflows. EPI2ME’s interface enables users of all expertise to perform end-to-end analysis, anywhere. Preconfigured workflows support broad applications, now including infectious disease, human variation and single cell. #nanoporeconf

Someone asked me "what's with the iguanas and vegetables", I think there's only so many artist's renditions of DNA molecules and false colour, mock electron microscope images of virus particles that people can take.

Doge for some reason is showing up on Twitter and I can only assume this was supposed to be an April Fools joke that took 3 days to roll out because no one knows how the site works anymore

It's the year 2037. Every application is configured by YAML. Only 14 humans on Earth can write or understand YAML, everyone else keeps typing different things into ChatGPT-28 and iterating until the syntax validation shows a squiggly checkmark (the color green has been canceled).
