I believe this to be one of the most important things now. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

Guardian missed that this guy is also a long-time business partner of Peter Thiel and is really influential among those tech bros.

I've read his manifestos. They are frightening and really match the news
He’s anti-democracy and pro-Trump: the obscure ‘dark enlightenment’ blogger influencing the next US administration
Key figures in the incoming administration follow Curtis Yarvin, who’s pushing for an autocratic takeover of the US

Finally on some samples we have all 46 human chromosomes T2T. Update to verkko 2.2, last big release of this summer! github.com/marbl/verkko
GitHub - marbl/verkko: Telomere-to-telomere assembly of accurate long reads (PacBio HiFi, Oxford Nanopore Duplex, HERRO corrected Oxford Nanopore Simplex) and Oxford Nanopore ultra-long reads.

Want to discuss a thing about reviewing process. It is far from "ai-generated alpha male rat" level of weirdness, but still weird for me, and I really do not know how it should be fixed.
Let's look on the article on diploid aware polisher. Published just a week ago

Finally verkko 2.0 is out! github.com/marbl/verkko Waiting for your bug reports;)

My dream for 46 t2t scaffolds on the de novo human genome assemblies out of the box is still a dream, but for some samples we are really close.

Consider a DAG with edges having both weight and length. Problem: find a path between given vertices with highest _average_ weight (= total_w/total_l). Is it known to be NP-hard in general case? Looks similar to 0-1 knapsack, but I failed to construct polynomial reduction..

"Minmers are a generalization of minimizers that enable unbiased local jaccard estimation" aka MashMap3 with Bryce Kille, @erikg.bsky.social, and @treangen.bsky.social is now accepted in Bioinformatics! Many thanks to the reviewers for their very careful reviews doi.org/10.1093/bioi...
