Friends don't let friends make bad graphs repo has been updated!

Friends don't let friends use histogram for small sample sizes. Bin numbers affect the appearance of histograms, thus not robust to small (and modest sample sizes). They stabilize w/ large sample sizes.

Has #Bioinformatics usage in #genomics increased Patient's survival rate in #cancer ? AT SCALE

Personalised Medicine is still #trending but I believe we will need more mass adoption with optimised cost to see it go mainstream. 🧬🖥

This is a sad state of Cancer treatment in India, where we already are struggling with the cures. Main stream public speakers are peddling pseudo-science. Irony is the patient herself is Dr. & went through rounds of modern treatment & chemotherapy.

What if we can store that Megabytes of data (0101) in those Megabases (ATGC) ? And then use this to train ourselves like a RAG for LLM technique to get better at things 🤔💭
