Geez I hate #LLM #AI showing up at the top of my search results. I was looking up the #SnakeMake command page to remind myself of the syntax for latency waiting for files.

I search. The first result is #AI generated and claims there is no latency command in #SnakeMake. The first real result was the command syntax page. Which detailed the --latency-wait command. Which has existed in the command list for a *LONG* time. 🙄

What a week at the #SnakemakeHackathon2026 !

What a wonderful week with wonderful people!

We were pretty productive and this #Snakemake release is just the peak of it. The list of features, bug fixes, performance improvement and additional documentation is so long — our little announcement robot cannot display it all. Even here on FediiScience with its 1500-character limit!
