Well with all the new twitter DM issues and rules a plenty, I need to start crossposting at least. Bah, tech is such trash...
For Nanopore Community Meeting #ncm2022 - my onsite poster number is #7, and online number is #16. I'll be around the poster from 4 to 5:15 or so, please do stop by and provide some feedback! Especially interested in feedback for #Deinococcus #phages #plasmids #phylogeny

Over on the hellsite, there's a thoughtful intro to the work of Michael Noll, Bell Labs 1962. Particularly interesting in how it intersected with categorization and law.

I was raised on this stuff but I don't think it gets the airtime it deserves, especially with the current what do you call it, zeitgeist?

β€œA short thread on the long and complicated history of AI art and copyright. This is Quadratic Gaussian, a piece of digital art generated by Michael Noll exactly 60 years ago (August 28th 1962) and successfully copyrighted two years later in 1965 after a lengthy debate.”

How do you people deal with rejecting candidates?

I know I can hire only one person. I know it.

But it's getting harder to reject tens of good people. Many people with good causes, skills, and CVs.

All those rejections are taking a toll on me...

I have a question for #microbiology and #genomics people here. We have a BL21 strain with a pET based plasmid that shows radically different OD600 at 2 hour mark even when split out of single tube grown over night, inoculated from single isolated colony. Any idea what could be going on in these situations? Are we looking at a mystery polyclonal culture?
