One day I will manage to manually edit /etc/fstab without making a mistake, but it won't be today.

Around 10% of your Nanopore reads (SQK-RBK114) are incorrectly trimmed. Here is why, and how our new tool Barbell solves it: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Want to get started? github.com/rickbeeloo/b...

I suspect that sequencing companies are primarily a means of tormenting bioinformaticians and the development and sale of sequencers is secondary to that goal.

Perhaps this makes me a bit of a luddite, but I am never going to upload my data to your website. I don't care how cool your new bioinformatic tool is.

Bioinformatics hot take: If you make a tool, I appreciate your work. If you make it in R, I also kinda hate you.

On more than one occasion I've thought of a cool idea for a bioinformatics program only to realize @torstenseemann.bsky.social already wrote it a decade ago.
