Daytime molecular fiend, nighttime panicking system calls. Scientist at a CRO specializing in precision oncology (URMC 2017-2022, NIH/NIAID 2022-2024). Smalltime F/OSS developer.
Days spent collecting markers, clones, and fluorochromes from OMIPs. Human CD4 alone has 9 monoclonals raised against it.

The tables need more cleaning and processing. That said, this is a happy place where I can start cooking API endpoints.

It is quite cute that gpt-oss-120b (through OpenRouter) tried to become really really helpful.

It even advised me the flow panel to use.

Qwen3-Coder helped me write a browser extension that allows LLM to access the paper currently displayed on the screen, so I can ask question directly without scrolling up and down repeatedly like a madman.

I did 15+ Boltz-2 runs during a single session before. Monitoring was tedious (nvidia-smi or nvitop), that then led me to baking a Prometheus exporter that scraped nvidia-smi. Still tedious because I needed to set up Grafana and Prometheus.

With o4 Mini's help, I wrote Goof.

Zig is fun. I statically linked CGO for my Golang project (that SQLite3 driver) and it just works.

Going through some notes on flow cytometry fluorescence spillover and compensation, decided to make an interactive note for it in JavaScript.

Matrix multiplication and matrix inversion in JavaScript, hand-rolled. What could go wrong?

Came back to Blender because BioRender/Inkscape frustrated me.

Here's a small attempt at visualizing ELISA. This is a very early stage.

It is very impressive that Anthropic Claude (3.5 Sonnet) knows that spillover characteristics for PE, PE-Cy5, and R718 into their corresponding detectors.

(weekend grokking into the algorithms as I was nerd-sniped earlier during the day)

Friends, I have jumped to the other side.

An experiment in progress to change the way I am consuming news beginning next year: bots, and tons of them.

Tried loading 100,000 flu A H1 HA sequences into ChimeraX, it crashed.

Tried again with 1,000 sequences, then it worked...

But anyway, I got this pretty figure.

Since I wrote that small Python package for automating ridgeline plot, I have been abusing it even for small stuff.

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #930,367!

Small bit of weekend was well spent: making the footnotes more appealing to click on. This is much better than scrolling all the way down

I tried workflow management systems, ended up going back to bash scripts anyway. So much more flexible, so much easier to configure.

Then I decided to try writing a pipeline in Go. We shall see. So far so good.
