the political will in the future.

It’s not hard to envision how it would work.

With the VCF, a special master was appointed to oversee every trial and was given a staff to deal with the administration of it. Standards were set under law for how the claims would be adjudicated. It was akin to a

how do we feel about putting JSON in the INFO field of a VCF?

Is there any project to document what CNP & ICE are doing? We'll need it for a VCF & Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

ICE & CBP agents may not be reachable by criminal justice or lawsuits, but a TRC brings some accountability. It would provide records of offenders for screening law enforcement.

Just finished recording the narration track for the VCF Midwest video. It's a long one. In the next couple of evenings there'll be some quality time spent in Pro Tools.

Seeing lots of Canadian commenters on this episode wishing to attend but would prefer one in Canada: well the first VCF Montreal is a thing this January!

Exhibiting there will be free and they're actively looking for more exhibitors right now to attend. Check it out! 🇨🇦

New proposal for Apple: in the next iteration of OSX please add a feature so the contacts software automatically recognizes a vcf with genotypes and displays the data.

Returning to VCF Midwest two years later on LGR!

And wow has it changed. It feels like an almost entirely different show! 66,000 square feet of vintage computers, retro hardware, software, and old school goodness of all kinds. Here's what the show was like (for me) in 2025!

anyway lunch was me kicking back and watching LGR's VCF Midwest summary, with some nice throw together leftovers: cream of mushroom soup, green beans, Lima beans, all mixed in with instant chicken ramen and a few shakes of Parmesan.

Good for what ails ya, if you don't count sore legs as an ailment.

As much as I’ve loved having the XPS 730 under the new retro table, I should probably have something more in the realm of boring, but practical. So the Shuttle XPC comes out to play.

Got the G15 singing with it and everything.

I want to do more VCF stuff with this machine eventually, too.

The idea behind SAFE-LD is simple: perform a large number of GWAS on randomly generated traits and use the correlation between the effect sizes to compute the correlation between the SNPs. After production the betas are rescaled between 0 and 2 to simulate imputed dosages and saved in a new VCF.

Does anyone remember a post from Adam Philippy (who for some reason I can't find with search) about the tools developed in HPRC? Am interested in latest tools/approaches for going from 2 human assemblies +reference to a VCF (am aware of pangenome approaches, that's a separate thread)

Called it a day at the VCF Swap Meet - I’d call it a big success! Sold all but two small items and picked up few things (more on that later). Turnout was good. Prices ranged as usual but there were some deals to be had.

Looks like a successful #VCFEast swap meet to me !

Great news everyone!

Mark your calendars because for the first time since 2019, VCF Pacific Northwest is happening.

It's be held just south of Seattle on May 2 and 3, 2026.

Believe in your power :)) Or, if you prefer external experts, believe anyone who tried it. VCF is a charm spell for retro nerds. It's amazing how many people show up from all over the world.

Just follow the proven basic concept of Show + Speeches +Flea Market.

Many thanks to @mac84.bsky.social, @oldskool.org, VCF Midwest and anyone unfortunate enough to have been caught in the audience!

Got a PowerPC #Macintosh and no idea what to do with it? If so, watch this video!
